I have tried everything from uninstalling the app to accessing hidden files, nothing will get me off the "Connecting to the EA App" screen except for a sudden report that warns me of an unexpected error and gives me the option to relaunch the app. Then we start the dance all over again.

    i have apps and features theres no repair option and can't uninstall because you have to log out of the app to do that and i can't even stop connecting!!!

  • Go to add or remove programs and from there find the EA App, then uninstall and click repair. This worked for me.

  • I had this same problem too!! I have a Mac so what I did was go to Finder , applications and scrolled till I found the EA app and right clicked it.

    I selected Show package contents . I then opened up the contents and I open EAUpdater. It should work, that worked for me!

    Thank you!!! This worked for me. - I play on Windows and I searched up "EA App Updater", it updated on it's own and then opened!
