Conference feedback

First of all, I appreciate the opportunity to access the recording of the sessions and watch them at a convenient time. I learned so much tips and valuable information. Thank you so much.


I appreciate the opportunity to access the recording of the sessions and watch them at a convenient time, since my time zone was not ideal for following and actively participating. The chats were probably already past peak time when I joined. I hope to be able to follow one of the live sessions on Saturday.

Very useful and complete insight on the possibilities and resources for interpreters looking for better work sources. Many recommendations also apply to translators.

Thank you for this amazing opportunity for learning and getting expert advice.

Time From To Content
10:09 May 28, 2014 Sandor Papp: 1193492 All @Ekaterina, yes, please. ProZ will send payment-related details shortly
10:10 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Ali, please give it a try. It depends on the "extremes", if you have lot of single-tag segments or very-very long segments, that can slow memoQ down. But normally 2 million is not a problem.
10:10 May 28, 2014 Ekaterina Yakushcheva: 665820 All Thanks, done :)
10:11 May 28, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All The last time I tried it reaction time was slow. In fact I used Powerpoint files mostly. But reaction time was slow.
10:11 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Thank you :))
10:11 May 28, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All it was 4 months ago.
10:12 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Ali, for TM? The file format should not matter there.
10:12 May 28, 2014 Sofia Brough-Aparicio: 1564178 All Hi there could I possibly get some advise on wether to upgrade my memoQ from 5 to 6. And also I have memoQ in an old lapto, could I keep memoQ5 on my old laptop and Memoq6 in my new lapto?
10:12 May 28, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All I mean tried to translate powerpoint files with big TM in Memoq.
10:13 May 28, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All I am not talking about TM management.
10:13 May 28, 2014 Drew MacFadyen: 601248 All Basic memoQ training session begins in 8 minutes - http://www.proz.com/virtual-conferences/614/program/9511
10:14 May 28, 2014 Poly Patter: 1922254 All Hi everyone, someone asked in the title about memoQ being made available for mac -- is this a possibility?
10:14 May 28, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All Drew for which version is this training? the one which will be released soon?
10:14 May 28, 2014 Poly Patter: 1922254 All I have a mac but I have had to instal windows on it only so I can do translation work
10:15 May 28, 2014 Poly Patter: 1922254 All ...and for the person who asked the question of whether that works, yes it works well but I find it frustrating to have to change back and forth between windows and mac interfaces all the time
10:15 May 28, 2014 Sandor Papp: 1193492 All @Ali: it's not version-specific, it's for beginners who want to "master" the basics of memoQ
10:16 May 28, 2014 Sandor Papp: 1193492 All the memoQ 2014 session will take place in the afternoon
10:17 May 28, 2014 Sandor Papp: 1193492 All Sofia, you can use memoQ on both computers; however, I would not prefer using two different versions. If you create a 6.0 project on your laptop, you cannot open it on the one, having v.5.0 installed
10:17 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Hi Sofia, I would definitely recommend upgrading to memoQ 2013 - or versions newer than memoQ 5.0. But I think you should ask others as well why :)
10:18 May 28, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All By the way how different will the new version be? Can you give me a percentage? 10% means mostly the same with the prevous version but a few changes will be, 100% means there will be complete changes
10:18 May 28, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All Including menus, designetc
10:18 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Ali, can you please save the PPT as PPTX and try then? That should be much faster.
10:18 May 28, 2014 Sofia Brough-Aparicio: 1564178 All Thank you.
10:19 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Poly, you are right, that part is hard to help - though Parallels and Fusion help you with that.
10:19 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Ali: memoQ 2014 will be very different in the internals, but not on the surface. Menus don't change much.
