Trados error (1460): This operation returned because the timeout period expired Thread poster: Bram van der Hout

Trados is giving me a hard time. I work with Word 2007 and SDL Trados Translator's Workbench 8.2.0.835. Recently, Trados has started giving me the error message "(1460): This operation returned because the timeout period expired" every other sentence or so. I obviously have no time for this nonsense. Does anybody know where this comes from and, more importantly, how to solve it?

Hehe, no. That might work. But then again, the problem might pop up again.
I've switched to my older version of Trados (and Word) on my laptop for now. Any other suggestions, anyone?

Hello Bram,

The problem seems to be with the connection between the two programs. This could be caused by your antivirus software preventing the macros from running properly (you may want to test this).
It could also be caused by a corrupt Trados template in Word. I would recommend that you read the following article to replace the template:
http://talisma.sdl.com/article.aspx?article=1466&p=1
Also, delete normal.dot from the following directory (XP and Vista directories differ):
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\*YOUR NAME*\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates
Vista: C:\Users\*YOUR NAME*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates
Please also make sure that trados8.dotm is an authorised template file by opening Word 2007, going to the Office Menu -> Word Options ->
Add-Ins and make sure that Trados8.dotm is in the authorised list.
I hope this helps.
Many Thanks,
Gareth Powell ▲ Collapse

Thank you for your help, Gareth.
Unfortunately, it didn't help me. I deleted the normal.dot file in Word and I followed the instructions in the link you added. However, I did not find any file called trados8.dot (I included hidden and non-indexed files).
I then used the repair function for Trados Translator's Workbench in Vista's Control Panel, but the problem persists.

I don't think my antivirus software is causing the problem, as I've been using this for a long time without changing the settings, without trouble thus far.
So I'm stuck. I'll have to go back to my old laptop again.
Any other ideas? ▲ Collapse

I've been experiencing the same problems and have just repaird/reinstalled on the control panel. Seems to have done the trick.

I managed to locate the hotfix, and it seems that after working on my laptop for six months, I'll be able to use my desktop for translations again! Thanks a lot, Darrell. I'll leave a new post in this thread if anything interesting (positive or negative) happens.

I have the same problem that you experienced and also cannot open the link that Darrell posted. So how did you manage to locate the hotfix?

I am also working on my main computer with Trados again (but for the first time in a year). As you, I had also been resorting to my notebook. What a relief!!!
