Hi,
I'm having difficulty creating a TM and adding it to a project in SDL Trados Studio 2019. I then need to send all segments in the project to the TM so I can send the TM to the client. Any help gratefully received.
Thanks,
Jonathan

If you have trouble adding a TM to a project, another option is to create a TM outside a project and then import the translated SDLXLIFF files into it. In Trados, go File > New > New Translation Memory, and save it to e.g. your Desktop. Then, go View > Translation Memories to get to the Translation Memories view, where the new TM will be visible. Right-click the TM and select Import. Then add the translated SDLXLIFF files from your project to the dialog, and... that's it.

Thanks for that Samuel, having created the TM I have gone to View, clicked on Translation Memories to get to the Translation Memories view, but the new TM is not visible. Any ideas?

It may be that the yellow "Translation Memories" folder is "folded in". If you can see it (in the left-hand pane), try double-clicking it.
