Hi!

I am experiencing the same issue as described in this thread's first entry:

Armory simply stays in offline mode, hitting the "Go Online!" button does not have any effect.

What I tried/have done so far:

- use Linux instead of Mac OSX
- either let armory control bitcoind or start bitcoin-qt manually
- start with "Skip online check on startup" checked in settings (and unchecked)
- making sure I am running the latest software versions
- re-download blockchain and start with a fresh install
- making sure all data is read- and writable

Situation now is: The wallet is there, armory has read the blockchain - but it remains offline and so the bitcoin I transfered to this address has not yet appeared..  :-(

As I'm pretty new to armory & bitcoin in general, any advice shall be gratefully taken...

Thanks a lot!
