To access your Wordfast Anywhere glossaries using Wordfast Pro you will need the following

  Free Wordfast Anywhere account at http://www.FreeTM.com
  A Fully Licensed version of Wordfast Pro 3.2 or higher
  Internet connection 

If you have Glossaries hosted in your private Wordfast Anywhere workspace and you would like to access them using Wordfast Pro, you can do so by following these steps:

  Login to your Wordfast Anywhere account at www.freetm.com 
  Click on the Wordfast setup icon (the icon with five coloured dots on the right side of the toolbar)
  Under the 'General' tab, click on 'Standard'
  In the glossaries tab, make sure the glossary that you wish to access from Wordfast Pro is active (there will be a red box around it if it is active; 
  to make it active select it and click ok.  It will need to match the language pairs of the TM that you have active.) 

  Go to the TM tab and click details. You will now see the Server URL and Workgroup ID that corresponds to that TM and glossary. For example, if your 
  TM and glossary is from French into English, it will look like this: wf://FR>EN@67.221.227.93:47110 
  Open Wordfast Pro 3.2. 

  Make sure the language pair of your project matches the language pair of your WFA glossary that you would like to access.  
  Go to 'Terminology' > 'New/Select Glossary' > 'Add'. 
  In the Wordfast Anywhere tab insert the server URL and Workgroup ID from Wordfast Anywhere.

  Click 'Test' and then OK
  You should be able to leverage terms from your WFA glossary and add terms to it from the WFP editor.
