Thought I had perhaps forgotten my password, but when I requested a change for the password, I also got the same error message:

An error has occurred

An email has been sent to support to inform them of the error.

Please try reloading / refreshing this page.

However, I got the normal emails about Password Updated and Password Reset. When I entered the new password, I got the same message as above.

Something funny on SDL server or in my Mozilla settings? I actually tried the same on another laptop with IE, both with my personal credentials (I have Studio 2011) and with the credentials of the company I work for (they have Studio 2014), same error message.

glad I'm not the only one Aug 31, 2014

Same thing here.
I assume there's some internal problem on their end, probably the server or module that is supposed to check whether a login/password is valid isn't doing its job at the moment, or maybe the admins figured they could get away with some maintenance work on a Sunday..

Same here Aug 31, 2014

I did not forget my password and don't want to change it, so did not go the password reset route.

Thanks for the confirmation. Since others are experiencing the same, uploaded a message to SDL. Hopefully someone will react on Monday.

yes Aug 31, 2014

me too! it won't even let me buy their software. and my old Trados Studio 2011 is saying my old activation key isn't working so I can't use Studio 2011 right now, and it's driving me a little bit nuts because I'm new to the program as it is, and find it to be extremely awesome and almost refuse to do hand translations now that Trados is in my life!!! deadlines to meet this week tho...

No sign of any resolution yet Aug 31, 2014

It's been now longer than 24 hours, as far as I can tell, since their system started to refuse users from logging in. No official word from SDL explaining the situation. I hope this isn't a regular thing with SDL.

An email has been sent to support to inform them of the error. Please try reloading / refreshing th Sep 1, 2014

I also get this message today when I re-istall my computer. As usual, If I install trados 2011 on my laptop. I do not need to return license when re-installing windows 7. But today, when I do like that, I cannot reach my SDL account to take Activation Code. I cannot access my account with the message " An email has been sent to support to inform them of the error.

Please try reloading / refreshing this page."
Who can help me? This error is caused by SDL company?

Thanks Siegfried Sep 1, 2014

Works here too - after I reset the password again, that is, the site had apparently not registered the new password I tried to change to last night.

What happens? Sep 29, 2015

Hi artesanapy,

I have checked the login and it seems ok. It would help if you could give us some kind of clue about what you are seeing?

Regards
