Re: EA app Can't Connect to Servers

Hi I found a way to fix the "couldn't connect to EA servers" on the EA app for mac. For me I found that I had to reset the DNS cache. (Basically means data from servers but its outdated so you need to remove it so that ur app can try connect and make new cache) 

Go to this website https://support.apple.com/en-ie/101481 and copy the correct terminal prompt and put it into the terminal app (You can find this in applications just search terminal and it should show up its a black app icon with ">_" on the top left hand corner. 

Then you copy / type in the prompt and type ur computer password and click enter then try open the EA app again! Its what worked for me and trust me its not that hard to do only a few clicks.

If you're not sure about which terminal command to use look up what version your mac is runnig eg I'm running macOS sonama 14.5 so i used the command for macOS yoesmite and later.

Hope this helps !
