I was a member of Proz.com a while ago and using Cafe Tran. I just renewed my membership and tried using Cafe Tran again with the software already installed but it is not working. I am translating a document from Spanish into English, and instead of English text in the target text, it has the same Spanish text.

I was a member of Proz.com a while ago and using Cafe Tran. I just renewed my membership and tried using Cafe Tran again with the software already installed but it is not working. I am translating a document from Spanish into English, and instead of English text in the target text, it has the same Spanish text.

I watched the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btf_mIIT4f0 (which has no audio for me) and tried checking the box for the Proz.com services, but that was already checked. I unchecked and checked the box, closed the software, re-imported the doc, etc. No success.

Any thoughts?

Also, I am running 10.5 version on Windows 10. Is there any way to upgrade to the most recent version of Cafe Tran?

Thanks,

Erin

Uninstall? Apr 20

Uninstall the old version and install the newest?

BTW: You need Proz *Plus*!

Alternative to uninstall? Apr 20

I thought of that but was hoping to avoid uninstalling and losing data for still ongoing projects.

I do have the PLUS package- thanks!

ProZ Plus or ProZ standard membership? Apr 20

For a while (during the pandemic), Cafetran was offered for free to paying ProZ members.

Since then, unlimited access is again offered only to ProZ Plus members.

So if you are a standard (non-Plus) ProZ paying member, it is normal you now don't have access to the unlimited version.

If you still want to use CafeTran without limits, ProZ Plus isn't the only option. You can check the Translator Group Buy campai

Similar issue May 2

I'm experiencing what might be a similar issue: my Plus membership is set to renew soon and today, I've gotten pop-up notifications that I am using a trial version of CafeTran.
I had initially bought it under group buy and later connected it to my ProZ plus membership.

I have the same issue since yesterday: Pop-up tells me to get a licence. May 3

Since yesterday I have the same issue. Then I could solve it by trying to log on via the mobile network – which usually works. But today I cannot get CafeTran working without getting the pop-up that tells me I must buy a license or use the free version with limited usability.

Screenshot 2024-05-03 at 14.43.06

It happens quite often, actually. But now I cannot fix it. And this worries me.

It worries me because I'll be residing at a place in the next few months, where I'll depend on spotty mobile networks so internet reception won't be always be possible. I hope that won't mean I cannot use CafeTran half of the time, or drive several miles just to get CafeTran working...

Perhaps it is possible to have a system in place with a licence that has an expiration date on it for Plus Members?

My system info
CafeTran product information
Product version: CafeTran Espresso 11.1.1 - Blueberry Cheesecake
Operating system: Mac OS X version 12.7
Java version: 17.0.2 OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM on aarch64

License key? May 4

Would it be possible for you to invest money in a license code? If you have a license code, you don't need access to the internet.

On the other hand, if I remember correctly: the polling of the server only takes place once a day, provided that you keep CafeTran Espresso running. I'm not sure about the energy saving mode. You can test that yourself, by deactivating Wi-Fi.
