What worked for me was deleting some files from my computer that had been downloaded the same day Origin wouldn't let me log in. just type in uninstall program into your computer's search and uninstall what you don't want. BE CAREFUL YOU DON'T UNINSTALL A NECESSARY FILE!
Got it to work from another thread. I had to:
Uninstall origin completely. Leave your games, just Origin.
Google search Origin Download. Use the filehippo link, should be build 10.5.41.27263
Download and install, go to settings and disable automatic game and Origin updates. Sign in and play
Note: I had to side step another download that they tried to push to me (brave browser) before I got to the Origin downloader.
I tried this and it worked. But after a restart of my computer and Origin was back to not being able to login and stuck in offline mode. EA support has not been very supportive.
having the same issue now. i first had the "origin online login is currently unavailable" issue, tried everything including contacting support. only other option was to try to reinstall origin. now i keep getting "origin must be online to login for the first time". how is this still an issue? original post made in 2014! 20 * 14! pull your head out of your * and fix this EA. this kind of * is the reason people hate EA, you dont fix anything. the only reason people use origin is because you took your games off steam.
i have same problem from yesterday wtf is going on here what ever i try origin just doesnt want to log in but clearly im online just origin thinks im offline
