Here it says that for Mac, OS X 10.5 or newer is required, but in the confirmation letter it says OS X 10.6 is minimum. What is it then? I paid for the course because I have 10.5.8, if it isn't enough, should I quit? Peter Simon

Dear Paolo, It's not the version of Wordfast which is the problem. I have already downloaded a trial version earlier. But I've just been told by Helen Shepelenko of technical support that because of the GoToWebinar platform, I won't be able to access your webinar. I've even been removed from the participant list, and been told that I can watch an earlier video with the same content. So it all seems a hell of a jumble.

"The basics were taught, though I'd have seen explained first how to start your own TM and glossary, ..." Read morewhat are the differences and what they are used for, before repeatedly saying 'open this TM, if you already have it.' No, I don't, I've come to learn how to create it. If one is a beginner with machine tr., it is not enough of an answer that 'if you think a project is a container of your files, you are wrong,' one needs to know what it is then, but here not given. The course structure frayed after break for a long time. "
