Google Translator

Question

I'm using FireFox on a Mac, that probably has nothing to do with it. Have a look at the screenshot.

As you can see the middle of the 3 translaters, the Google one hangs while the others offer a solution.

This happened once before with the Microsoft one . I tried the Google translater away from the site and it's fine.

Here's what happens:

The little "wheel" just keeps turning with no result.

I have been having the same experience. - MLucie, Nov 7, 2011

Answer 1

I use Chrome and Firefox on a windows PC, and I have always experienced the same busy icon. I think, its an issue in between Spanishdict and Google Translation API.

Note: Google discontinued to support old Translation API v1, and v2 is a paid service.

Answer 2

The translators never worked for me... They always produce doubtful results... Oh! you mean this is a technical question? Maybe the translators are trying to tell you something.... like use them infrequently, if at all...

Answer 3

It happens for me too - I use Chrome.

Answer 4

So wait? What site are you using? translate.google.com?

Answer 5

Wow! Thanks, Birdland. For a long time now, the translators have not worked at all for me. I just tested them again and they don't work on Internet Explorer at all, but what you just described happens on Firefox and Google. Here is my screenshot from firefox. Thanks you so much for clearing this up.
