Hey guys! I'm studying at university English here in Arg and some translation works popped up so I decided to take them some months ago. Surfing on the net I discovered OmegaT which quite solved my first problems when translating but now MT stopped working and I'm not sure if it's my notebook's system or OmegaT's software. Does anybody of you have been through this before? Everytime I open my project in the MT window appears what follows:

Connection timed out: connect

I couldn't find the same problem in the forum so if anybody could give me a hand I'd really appreciate it. Thank you!

Looks like a connectivity issue Jul 28, 2016

As MyMemory requires no registration at all, it looks like a connectivity issue. I.e., OmegaT doesn't manage to connect to the Internet.

Does your Internet connection requires a proxy, or something similar?

No proxy Jul 28, 2016

Yes. I also think it's a conectivity issue. I think I have no proxy since I work from home... anyways it seems that omegat's software is the only one which does not connect to the net.

That's perhaps a Java connectivity issue Jul 29, 2016

Do you have tested other Java software ability to connect to the Internet?

OmegaT doesn't manage connectivity itself, so it's likely other Java applications cannot connect as well.

If it cannot connect, that may be an issue with your firewall, for instance.
