Cannot connect to activation server error when I tried to re-authorize my computer

I had problem copying library books to my kobo reader. It was OK back in Dec.
So I tried to erase authorization and re-authorize my computer to try as a fresh start.
I am getting a "cannot connect to activation server error". I have no problem connecting to the internet on all other sites that I am accessing.

I don't know if this will help, but I was having trouble today activating another Adobe product as well. Turns out the problem was other software on my computer - a program called "Net Nanny" that filters content and supposedly keeps malware and other stuff out. Maybe you have that or something similar, like a McAfee or Norton? Temporarily disabling the software fixed my problem. Good luck!

Cannot connect to Activation Server

My system is Windows Vista.
Recently installed ADE 3.0.
I tried to open ACSM file, both with & w/o authorization ID.
Both times, I get the same error: cannot connect to Activation Server
My internet connection works.
So, I configured my Windows Firewall, so that ADE 3.0 is on the exceptions list.
Same error: cannot connect to Activation Server
Help!

Yes, I tried to deauthorize in Library view, but nothing happened. ADE has no authorization information at all.
So, for added measure, I uninstalled & reinstalled ADE 3.0. Then I confirmed that Adobe ID and password worked by logging into my Adobe account. Hence, my internet connection also works.
In ADE I again entered my Adobe ID and password. Initially I got the same error: cannot connect to authorization server.
After I repeatedly hit [Try Again], the screen finally showed "Authorizing..."
However, this screen just runs...and runs. The authorization never completetes.
So then I went to the Registry and deleted the Adept Key, as you suggested in your other reply.
Same result. At first, it wouldn't connect to the server at all. Then I get the "Authorizing" screen that runs indefinitely.

I keep getting the message "mail cannot connect to the server-." when it clearly can and does. How do I prevent these messages from appearing?

Activation server error when authorizing my laptop/adobe ID

Hi. Whenever I try to authorize my laptop to my newly-made adobe ID, I always got the message Activation server error code : E ADEPT REQUEST EXPIRED blah blah blah. Upon reasearching on the net, I stumbled on a blog that says that one of the problem might be the time zone. I'm in the Philippines, does that matter? How to fix this problem? I have copies of sample files (epub) for ADE and the program read/loaded the files without any problem. But when I tried to load a purchased ebook using the URLLink.acsm, that's when I encountered this problem. Please someone give me the step-by-step process on how I will be able to authorize my laptop.

Found this link on a different forum and it worked for me on a MAC

Unable to connect to proxy server error when I don't use a proxy?

Hi everyone, I had an error connecting to the internet and it turned out that my proxy settings had been changed on System Preferences to connect to a proxy. I noticed that I could access certain websites like Google, Facebook and Twitter but the rest of the web was a no go. Thing is, I'm the only person that uses this computer. Anyway, I changed my settings to stop connecting to that proxy and it made me think: how did my settings get changed in the first place? For one thing I have definitely set it so that you need to put in my Admin password in order to change such settings. Could this be some form of spyware/online tracking attempt on my computer? Do you guys have any suggestions on what I can do to prevent this in the future or what I can do to make sure my computer is completely secure (if it isn't already)?

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) on the advice of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Adobe digital editions cannot connect to activation server?

I've been reading books on my kobo for 2 years now. All of a sudden my ADE ver 1.7 had an error message - something about fulfilment issues. I downloaded vers. 2.0 and now get the activation error message. Please help. Very frustrated here.

Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
Try completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your Adobe ID.

System Update -- Cannot connect to proxy server - SOLVED

I'm on a ThinkPad T61 running Windows Vista. When I try to download from System Update, I always get the error message "Cannot connect to proxy server."
I have tried connecting to the Internet directly via Ethernet rather than through a wireless router--it doesn't make any difference.
I have also uninstalled System Update and then installed the version I downloaded from lenovo.com--same result.
System Update is an exception in Windows Firewall, and I have even tried running System Update with Firewall disabled--ditto.
Can someone please help me?
Message Edited by Tim_Lenovo on 01-29-2008 02:49 PM
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have discovered one other potential cause of this behaviour.
If your computer is attached to a Domain, ensure you are connected to the Domain using a profile that has administrator rights when attempting these upgrades.
I was using a local profile with administrative rights, on a network connection that was outside of the corporate LAN, and I was getting the "Cannot connect to proxy server" error.
When I connected to our Corporate LAN and logged on to the machine with an administrative profile, the Proxy Server error went away, and I was then able to connect and download my required updates.
Just an FYI if you are doing this inside a large, firewalled LAN running from Active Directory.

TV System Update hangs at 21% with message "Cannot connect to proxy server"

Hi,
just installed TVSU (latest version) on my Thinkpad T40 (with WinXP Pro SP3, German). Installs fine, runs perfect after reboot, recognises the correct model, initiates search for updates and then stops at 21% whilst displaying
"Downloading Packet Information: Lenovo Help Center (1 of 1)".
A few seconds later the error message
"Cannot connect to Proxy Server"
comes up with an OK-Box. Clicking OK terminates the entire update process, however TVSU continues to run properly and the process can be restarted with the identical result. This happens with Kaspersky Firewall on and off, no difference. Even rebooting the system w/o firewall and virus protection and starting afresh does not help either. Tried perhaps 15 times over the last 4 hours with same results. I assume that the error message refers to a proxy at Lenovo since in my local environment there is no proxy involved. The system is known to be free of viruses (clean installation yesterday and virus checked this morning).
Note:
The display/error message above were translated from German into English so the corresponding original English displays/messages may look slightly different.
Any ideas?
Regards from Germany...

BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network

Hi Guys,
I get the following error when i try to connect to BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network or security issue.
This only happen on clients machines, I have installed the client tools on the server and tested, i can connect to Excel but not on the machine. My MS office version is the same as the one on the server. BPC is ver 5.04
Has anyone experienced the same problem.
your help will be greatly appreciated.

Let me summarize your issue to see if I may help. If I cannot, then you will need to work with SAP Support on the connection problem.
- You have a single or multi-server setup?
- Installed using BPC 5.1 SP3, (or 5.0.502) correct?
- You can enter the BPC on the server, both via BPC Excel and BPC Admin?
- When you initiate BPC Admin on your client, so can connect to the Server and perform Admin operations?
- When you initiate BPC for Excel, and walk through the connection wizard, you cannot connect to the server?
- When you are in the Connection Wizard, are you using a path or a Server designation?
- Is the system on a single domain?
- When you added users to the Admin Security profile, they were selected from a DOMAIN?
- You have processed security and assigned ALL TASKS currently and processed the MEMBER ACCESS profiles, yes?
After all of this, have you uninstalled 1 BPC client, cleared the ProgramFiles/BPC folder, and deleted the local stored BPC information? If you haven't, just for simplification, I would attempt this process.
You also hae read all the SAP Support Notes regarding using Excel2007 with BPC and the issues you may experience?
Please let me know and maybe we can help.

Deploytool cannot connect to linux server

HELP !!!
I'm trying to deploy an application from a Windows 2K machine onto a linux server on a small home network, but deploytool cannot connect to the server.
When I try File->AddServer it says 'cannot connect... please contact your server admin...' However, it works if i try to deploy locally on either machine.
I'm running a Samba network with static addresses on Redhat 7.1, and also with J2sdkee1.3 on both machines(Linux and Win2K). The machines on the network all ping each other successfully using both ip addresses and machine names.
I will greatly appreciately any help. Thanx in advance
Kawsu

I have the J2SDKEE-1.3.1 installed on a linux RedHat 6.2 machine as well as a Win2K machine. The deploy tool can connect to localhost on either machine but when I try to deploy across the network the deploytool appears to connect and then sit there and do nothing. If I then stop the server the deploytool will issue an error and remove the server from the server list. Based on this it appears to be connecting to the linux machine. Also I see no significant network traffic while it is sitting there.
If anyone has any information on this could you please reply to [email protected]
Thanks
