Hey all if you are still  having  issues with connection, then I would suggest taking a look at our Connection troubleshooting steps which you can find here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/connection-troubleshooting-basic/

 

Let me know how you get on.

Even though the helpful guy from EA verbally confirmed this morning its a problem origin created that they are now messing about to fix? last time I took advice it made it worse and now I can't play anything at all, forgive me if I seem rude but i'm not overly willing to mess around again

Hi! I got origin issues today, so i ended up chatting with them and they also told my its an issue they are working on. 

My troubles started today, in Norway. 

 

Think its frustrating they dont go official about it if its something going on here.

I agree! I know some people have had a problem since last Wednesday, so it's been a week and they still haven't said anything. I am beyond frustrated and just want to play my games before school starts back up again. I had just bought the new Sims 4 Seasons and was SUPER excited to start playing with the new content.

Re: Origin servers temporarily unavailable

Hi everyone,

 

Please could you check for these files:

 

Macintosh HD > Library > LaunchDaemons > com.ea.origin.ESHelper.plist

 

Macintosh HD > Library > PrivilegedHelperTools > com.ea.origin.ESHelper

 

(Where Macintosh HD may be a different name on your system if you have renamed it or wiped and reformatted with a different name)

 

There is a current install issue with Origin affecting some Mac users and knowing if these files are present would be really informative - thanks!

Hi! Ive had the same problem since friday. Ive spoken to the support on several occasions, and again today and the answer that I got now is that they are aware of the problem and working on it. They had no idea when it will be resolved (they didn't even know what the problem is) and told me to check Ea twitter for updates.

Feedback is vital and really helpful in helping to narrow down the issue. Have you looked for the files I requested in my previous post above yours? I've also asked in previous posts on this issue for the OS version people are running - what are you both running?

I know it can help to vent frustration on this site but it doesn't help fix the issue, providing constructive feedback does.
