"Could not connect to server, please try again in a few minutes"
This problem has been plaguing me for the past 9 months. Origin isn't connecting to the internet, despite the fact that my computer has an internet connection and all the websites I go to work. I've looks through the forums and tried all the stuff suggested on them that I could find, yet nothing is working. I have never been able to sign on to play which really upsets me since I've paid money! I'm actually really disappointed because I've spent a lot of money and I can't even play!!! Not only that, I cannot get any help with customer service. This is the worst experience I've had with a product ever.
I have Macbook, by the way. And I have a feeling that most of the suggestions I'm going to get, I've already tried-- and they didn't work!!!
I GOT IT TO WORK!
I am not tech savy and I had no idea what I was doing however I am on a mac
I went to system preferences > Network > advanced settings > proxies and I had one running so I unchecked it applied changes and Orgins immediately opened up and updated and signed me in soon after.
Hopefully this works for others and hopefully by shutting off that proxy it doesn't mess up my computer....fingers crossed
