NotAFoxAnymore Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) I've been using a Mac at college and found that no matter what the chat wouldn't load, it would say 'Failed to connect'. Is this a known issue? It did the same yesterday and everything else loads fine so I don't think it's the internet. Just wondering if this is a common problem or what the deal is here Edited September 24, 2015 by Makise Kurisu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damon8r351 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I can connect and I have a Mac. Are you using Safari as the web browser? Because there's apparently a couple things here that don't work with Safari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chat's working fine on the usual IE, Chrome and FF so it must be safari or whatever the heck mac uses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Chat's working fine on the usual IE, Chrome and FF so it must be safari or whatever the heck mac uses Well... Chrome, FF and yes, even IE is technically available on a mac*. This is likely not the browser itself, but rather it's likely a system setting and OP is running a newer version of OS X that locks down Java/Javascript/other stuff. I haven't used the Chat part of this site so I can't say for sure what the Chat depends on. *Mac must be running OS X 10.6.8 or earlier because rosetta was removed in later versions and IE 5.1 is the last available version for OS X. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Well it's a public computer technically so there's not a lot I can do it seems Edited September 24, 2015 by Makise Kurisu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Sly Ripper Posted September 24, 2015 Solution Share Posted September 24, 2015 It's probably a firewall blocking it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guenter_G Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8 and it works fine in old Chrome based Opera. Haven't tried Safari (also old ) or Firefox (old version as heck!) but I don't think it matters. Was just gonna say that I think your collage probably blocks some ports or some services using a firewall, but Sly got before me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
