Unable to Connect to EA Download Manager July 2014

I have recently bought a new laptop and I have downloaded orgin and installed my base game successfully. However, whenever I try to install an exspansion pack, it tells me that I need to update my base game. So, I click back onto the base game, go to update the game and a pop up appears telling me that the game is "unable to connect to ea download manager". What do I do connect it and get everything sorted? I would be grateful for any help!!

  • Okay, after I do the manual update, it still says "unable to connect to eat download manager" and now my game won't launch. (Launched with update before installing ANY expansions)

    Does it say 1.67 in your launcher now ?

    Try reinstalling Origin

  • I"ve having the same issue I've trie eveything listed and my game still will not launch?

  • I am having the same problem. The suggestions to manually update and re-install origin have not fixed the problem and my game is now unplayable as it will not load. These non-answers meant to placate us are not acceptable answers to major problems with your games which need to be fixed. I have paid money to own these games, as have other users, and we are being dismissed without proper solutions to major bugs, including this one.
