add translation - page isn't redirecting properly [#1144000]

I have a fresh installation of Drupal 7. I have two languages added to the site, in addition to English. I added to the content type the ability to translate. The page that was created was in English and I am trying to translate to one of the other languages, using the "add translation" link that is provided when clicking the "Translate" button on the page. When clicking on "add translation", in Internet Explorer, it is just spinning and spinning, doing nothing that I can see. In Firefox, however, I get the following message, after a few seconds:

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I did search both the internet, for Drupal issues related, and also here on Drupal. Can't seem to find an exact match, easily. I don't believe I have a cookie issue. ...Hope someone can help, ASAP.

JamFar you need to provide a lot more information than that to get some support.

Modules installed
What methods of translation did you use (prefix, etc)

What instructions did you follow? Multilingual site set up has lots of tutorials. http://drupal.org/node/324602

Originally, I did have the following modules installed:

advanced_help, calendar, captcha, colorbox, ctools, date, ds, elements, entity, features, globalredirect, image_resize_filter, insert, l10n_client, l10n_update, panels, pathauto, pathologic, po_re_importer, profile2, rules, terms_of_use, token, transliteration, views, webform and wysiwyg

I realized that I was missing the following two:

i18n and variable

These are now installed, but I am still having the same problem, as described above.

And I am using prefix. As far as tutorials, I've read these pages:

http://evolvingweb.ca/story/drupal-7-multilingual-whats-new-i18n

http://www.drupaler.co.uk/blog/multilingual-drupal-some-dos-and-donts/482

I am not sure I could say that I followed any "tutorial" to get things set-up, but I have worked quite a bit in Drupal 6 with internationalization, so I am very familiar with this topic.

Does the symptom sound familiar?

Thanks for your help!!!

Is there a way to track this down or trouble-shoot it?

Okay, I think I am making headway. The key module to install, after all of the others, was this one: entity_translation

Thanks, sun for your module!

As a follow-up to anyone that may read this thread and try to get something going, I ran into an infinite redirect loop with my localizations. Thanks to a commenter (here: http://drupalmodules.com/module/global-redirect ), I decided to deactivate the global redirect module and that fixed it. ...If anyone knows why the redirect loop was happening and can fix it so that I can reactivate the module, it would be much appreciated, as it is important for SEO.
