Hi! Just wanted to ask urgent assistance in regards with my SDL Trados as my translation memory seems like not working. I will be attaching images of the issue I am currently experiencing. When I do try to select the language pair, I couldn't enable it and there is a "x" icon showing on the side as well. Hopping for your response. Thank you!
AI totally misunderstood you. Which language pair is the TM you want to use? en-US->fr-CA? Seemingly not, that's what Studio is trying to tell you. If you use AnyTM, you can shoehorn it into that language combination. Does that help?

Yes, EN to FR CA is the language pair I am trying to use but it does not proceeds. May I know if how can I choose the selectiom for Any TM, please?
Thanks!
Uel Casey Bosch The question is which kind of EN is your source language? en-US? en-GB? en-CA? Or something else. If this does not match your TM, you get this error message.
AnyTM simply says: The source language of this TM equals the source language of the project in question, same for the target languages. From your screenshot I would say that it will work for you.

It is a EN CA. Before I can use it smoothly without getting any error. Not sure why I can't use it anymore. Does rein structuring the folder of the Termbases saved on our server affect the way I usually use it?
Thanks!
No, this is a TM. Termbases are different animals.
You are trying to use a TM en-CA -> fr-CA for a project that is en-US -> fr-CA, That won't work without AnyTM, and it will never have worked.

Your issue is with translation memories, not with termbases.
It is a EN CA.
That’s why it down work: the Source language of the TM (English - Canadian) does’t match the source language of your project (English - US).
If you create a project, English - Canadian > French - Canadian, you’ll be able to use that TM. Alternatively, you can use AnyTM.

Whether you changed the Source language or you were using AnyTM or you were not using that TM.
It still doesn't work. May I ask for help via call, please? As I stil couldn't use it.

Probably if have a Support conctract with RWS. Otherwise it’s on them to help that way. This forum is supported by both RWS employees and Trados Studio users as you and me.
I changed the source language into EN-CA but it still doesn't work. I am not sure how to use the AnyTM.

That’s not what I would define as an exact procedure followed… I hope you understand that I can’t help if you keep information for yourself.
Re. AnyTM, it’s not the way I’d pick, but you can watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8doQlofpthE and/or read this post: https://multifarious.filkin.com/2014/02/12/supertm/?highlight=anytm
I have tried using the AnyTM but it still shows me that there is no open termbase. I am not quite sure what is wrong with the setup I have since ever since, it is working smoothly by just selecting the language needed for the project. Please see below the error message I am getting when trying to translate.
This post is all about translation memories (your title post, your first screenshots, AnyTM…). For sure you had an issue with translation memories.
Now your last screenshot is about the termbase, a totally different asset. Sorry, I don’t know if your issue with the translation memory is fixed and now you bring a different topic. If it is, please state so; if it’s not, let’s fix it first.
Apologies as I am actually not very sure of what is the main issue why I could not translate using the SDL Trados. As I have tried using the AnyTM, I was able to open the project in the application. But when I was trying to translate them by phrases/words as I usually do, it does not automatically filled in as it used to. Also, I have noticed the message attached in the screen shot above which is " No open termbase".
