Title: Mac 10.7.5 with version 2.0.2- can't connect Post by: hawktwo on March 16, 2015, 09:22:25 PM I'm a new electrum user.
Tried deselecting "auto" server and reopen with different servers several time but nothing happens. Also reinstalled the app but that didn't help either. Any ideas what to do. Searched the forums here but can't find a solution. Thanks!

Hi Tachikoma, I have sent you a copy/ paste of output from Terminal via PM. To make things even worst, I have now upgraded to 2.0.3 and I'm getting an Electrum Error message at startup with the option of either "Terminate" or "Open Console".

I managed to get 2.0.3 running but still can't connect. I did the "start the program, quit, and re-start it again" you suggested- but still no connection. Also noticed that the network Proxy option within Electrum is greyed out. Could it be that the network setting on my mac are not configured correctly? I have full wi fi signal and Firewall is off in the system preferences. Thanks!

I managed to get a connection with the following steps (please excuse bad english or wrong words)
Finder -> electrum 2.0.3. is shown under devices -> click on it ->now you should see the electrum logo -> click logo -> click on the little gear wheel -> click on "show package contents (translated from german, maybe named different in english. The second from above) -> double click contents -> double click MacOS -> double click Electrum. Then Terminal and Wallet opens and connection light should be green. I don't understand why the terminal opens, maybe someone could explain that to me ??? Hope it works for you as well.

Does that mean Terminal will need to run in the background all the time? Will Electrum run reliably this was? |
