Object whatever back again Mar 3, 2013

This is ridiculous.

The problem is back again in the midst of my big project, what a waste of a day trying to get it fixed. Sometimes the instructions work and today not!

Trados is an expensive joke. Extremely user unfriendly too.


Translation has been hijacked, and we are held hostage.

Trados is a piece of ... Mar 5, 2013

Dear fellow translators,

I also have this problem, cannot open a package in 2009.
It can be opened in 2011, but the client requires I use 2009 for the work.
I also tried creating a 2009 package in the 2011 version, did not work
I tried all the solutions suggested here.
I tried multiple computers, nothing.

Any ideas?

I would never ever buy Trados. It is terrible, buggy and soooo expensive
Memoq is and for years has been thousand

Memoq is and for years has been thousand times better and costs much less.
GTT and memsource are better too..anything...even translating in doc with wordfast classic..


SDL should just cease to exist

i really am angry with this so called CAT tool

Object Ref errors Mar 5, 2013

Hi,

It's hard for me to know what to suggest as this is a very generic error message coming from your system, even if it's caused by something in Studio or your files.

I would be happy to take a look if you can share the packages/projects with me however. So if this is possible please drop me an email - [email protected] - and I'll set something up so we can try to address your problem.

Regards

What settings are lost when deleting UserSettings.xml? Apr 29, 2013

Hello,

Once again this afternoon, I've encountered the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error in Trados Studio 2011 (10.4.3079.1) after running certain batch tasks.

As suggested above, I've removed UserSettings.xml, BaseSettings.xml and plugincache.xml.

What worries me about this workaround is that UserSettings.xml contains various user settings, as the file name suggests. What settings are lost when I delete this file? Does it affect

What worries me about this workaround is that UserSettings.xml contains various user settings, as the file name suggests. What settings are lost when I delete this file? Does it affect any of the settings in Tools > Options?


Kind regards

Urgent - studio 2011: object reference not set to an instance of an object with TM May 7, 2013

Dear all,

This is the first time I had this problem (and I hope the last). I had to uninstall trados studio 2011 today, and everything goes well with the installation. Trados opens a new text without a problem; however, when I try to load a TM it gives me the "object reference not set to an instance of an object" every time I move to the next segment. I have now uninstalled/reinstalled trados 3 times today to no avail!

I have looked through all the posts regarding this

I have now uninstalled/reinstalled trados 3 times today to no avail!

I have looked through all the posts regarding this issue, but it seems that I cannot find the SDL file under roaming. When I go to C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming to find and delete the three troublesome files there is only a file for microsoft and nothing for SDL. I have clicked "show hidden folders" under folder view but nothing works. My OS is windows 7.

Please help!!!!!!

Thank you!!!!!!!!

Object reference not set to an instance or object! - SOLVED Sep 23, 2013

I tried (after spending more than 2 hours looking for answers) to find a missing translation. BECAUSE THIS WAS THE CAUSE OF THE ERROR!!!
Finally got it!
Also Auto-Propagation was faulty, Studio 2011 did not jump to the next segment after using Alt+Add.
Translation inserted, confirmed, all errors dissappeared!

It works with Studio 2014 as well Oct 5, 2013

SDL seems not to be very busy to resolve problems like this.
I found the mentioned files in two folders. I decided to remove those with the date of today and it worked.

Thank you,

Wolfgang

Then I found this article on the SDL Knowledgebase: http://kb.sdl.com/?portalid=23&articleid=4457#tab:homeTab:crumb:7:artId:4115

I saved the termbase in a folder that didn't contain an ampersand or semi colon and it worked!

I hope this can help you too.
