Filling in your Log In data will allow you to work online, you´ll be able to see the green boxes on the bottom, right-hand corner, to make sure you are saving your translation to the cloud and also that you’re having access to TM, TB and MT. If the data is not correct or you don’t have an Internet connection, the boxes will go red.

f) You start translating, segment by segment, and once you are done with the target segment, and you are sure about your translation/edit choice, you “Confirm” the segment by hitting Control+Enter or the "Confirm Segment" green botton at the top of the bar http://www.english-spanish-translato...rm-segment.gif. Once finished, go to Document > Upload to Server, and this way all you´ve done will be uploaded to the server. (Make sure you are logged in). You´ll see how your translation changes now to 100% now on the cloud.
Then change the status to “Completed.”
This way, the PM will be able to pick up your file from the cloud later.
