Sky Go Desktop - Mac - Hanging on signing in

Hi Ive downloaded sky go to my desktop but when i sign in its just haging and not doing anything. The log in is fine as i can log in everywhere else with sky. Im on OS X 10.10.2. Can you help?thanks

If you had looked at the top of the board you would see there is a post regarding trials of a new version of the desktop download client for PC AND Mac.
http://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky-Go/Sky-Go-Download-Player-Trial/m-p/2345882#U2345882
The window for applications may already have closed, I'm not sure, but either way a new version is most definitely in the pipeline.

  • Sky Go Desktop - Mac - Stuck on Signing in...

    My Sky Go Desktop has stopped worked and just sits on the 'Signing in...' image with a spinning wheel I have tired removing the app and silverlight and reinstalling but the same issue persists Does the app log anywhere that I would be able to see so I can attempt some better self-diagnosis? Thanks

  • Sky Go Desktop - Cannot sign in to download.

    When downloading a programme or movie to watch later via the Sky Go desktop and then attempting to log into the desktop to begin the download,  I am getting error code c38740 which says my log in details cannot be saved.  However it does give me access and the programme to be downloaded is listed on the Sky Go desktop.   Then  after clicking on 'Cheque download' the programme does not begin downloading and  after a few moments it disappears from the Sky go desktop. Any ideas whats going on please?   This has only happened since getting Windows 10 at the weekend so no doubt that has something to do with it!

    Forgot to say I am using Internet Explorer not Edge.

  • Sky Go Desktop log in

    Hi,       I have recently downloaded the Sky Go desktop app for my Mac as I will be travelling a lot soon and want to be able to watch films on my Mac offline on planes etc. When i try logging in to the app on my Mac, the sign in page remains after I have put in my details - with the loading circle remaining on the screen and never actually loading. I have left it on this screen for as much as half an hour to ensure that it does never load. I have uninstalled the app several times and reinstalled it but this hasn't resolved the problem. Any suggestions on how this can be solved? Cheers

    Hopefully not for much longer though. I agree that the "wilderness months" since September 2014 (when Yosemite launched and the Mac version of the Sky Go Desktop stopped working for me) until about a month ago, when nothing seemed to be happening, were disappointing for Mac users. User "donfor" published a workaround on this board to get the old Sky Go Desktop working under Yosemite (if interested in trying it, you could look for it via the search facility) - I never had any luck with it but others did.

    iPhoto just stopped working. It loads pictures, but then goes into rainbow wheel forever. Then I try to force quit it, and then the whole Mac hangs up (had to power cycle it to get it back). I am using OS 10.5.8, and when I run software update, it assures me I have up to date software. I have not added any photos since the last time I used it, probably less than a month ago. What gives?

    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • Can anyone help me with downloading sky go desktop with mavericks installed

    Can anyone help me with downloading sky go desktop with mavericks installed

    Sky Go seems a little behind the times in their support for the Mac OS X platform.

  • I am operating a 2009 desktop Mac OsX 10.5.8. How do I upgrade to a current operating system? Do I need to purchase Snow Leopard? I have clicked update my software but see now changes.

    I am operating a 2009 desktop Mac OsX 10.5.8. How do I upgrade to a current operating system? Do I need to purchase Snow Leopard? I have clicked update my software but see now changes.

    You first must upgrade to Snow Leopard. In order to upgrade to Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks you first must upgrade to Snow Leopard. Your model should be able to run Mavericks which you can download for free.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
    Remember to do the following before starting the upgrade process:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Restart the computer from the Apple menu.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • Sky Go Desktop v1 for OSX 10.6 - still available?

    Hi All. OSX 10.6.8 (the latest version my laptop can run). I recently had some laptop issues, so I am reinstalling some apps and things. I deleted Sky Go Desktop from my machine. Foolishly before checking to see if it was still available to download. However, I now cannot reinstall. The web page displays the message that Sky Go is already installed on this machine.
    It seems that after years of nothing beyond Snow Leopard being supported, my OS is no longer supported by Sky! So I am locked out. Is it possible to still download version 1 of the Sky Go app? It was working fine until a couple of days ago. I just need the app file again. Could someone provide it for me please? I don't mind about it being unsupported. It was working just fine for downloaded programs up until a few days ago before I had to reinstall things. 

    Those requirements are for the DVD version of it and not the Mac App Store version. Check sites such as Amazon or eBay for iWork 09 DVDs.

  • I'm running Pages version 5.2 on a Desktop Mac version 10.9.2. with the Pages app open how do I use the Time Machine to go back five hours to see the work?

    I'm running Pages version 5.2 on a Desktop Mac version 10.9.2. With the Pages app open how do I use the Time Machine to go back five hours to see my page? Can I access Time Machine within an app like Pages? How do I enter Time Machine within the application? It always takes me to the Finder. I apolgise for the mumbo jumbo. I simply do not know how to use Time Machine. It makes sense when I follow the Tutorial but then I lose it.

    OK. You've kind of skipped over the reason why you want to go back five hours, but my assumption would be that you've made changes to a Pages file that you want to revert.
    There are two ways to tackle this. From Pages itself, open the current version of your document, and from the File menu, click Revert To, and Browse All Versions. You'll then be in the Time Machine interface for that file, and can browse back to the version you want.
    Or, outside of Pages, you can select the file (or the folder it was originally in, if you've since deleted it) and enter Time Machine from the TM menu (it sounds like you've already tried this?)

  • I bought pages for my macbook air, but it is not showing up on my desktop mac

    I recently purchased Pages as it is on my ipad / iphone / ipod touch, so I thought why not have it on my Macbook air and desktop mac.  I bought it on the Macbook air, but it is not showing up on my purchases, and if I go to download it on the desktop, it states it is 19.99.  What am I doing wrong?

    Apps installed on your iOS devices cannot run on Mac OS X. Two different operating systems.
    If you want Pages on your Mac, you can purchase and download the Pages app for OS X here.
    Be aware, the minimum requirement for Pages for OS X is v10.9 or later.

  • ICal Server - User can log in from iPhone but not from Desktop Mac

    I've got quite the peculiar problem with iCal Server on OS X 10.6.6 - my users can log in and access the shared calendars using their iPhones. When I set up an the same account on their desktop Macs in iCal, I get an error message "The server did not recognize your user name or password for account <username@servername>".
    I'm positive that username and password are correct. The only thing I found about that in the log files was that the CalDAV server returns a 201 HTTP status code when accessing the account from the iPhone vs. a 407 status code when using iCal on their desktop Mac. The same accounts are used for Email, File Sharing and Address book, all of which run fine.
    Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Maybe even solved it?

    Solved it myself - there was a non-ASCII character in the account password. Strange that the iPhone didn't have a problem with that while iCal did. Now that I've changed the password to contain only ASCII characters, the problem is gone.

  • SUPER SIMPLE DUMB Question about hard-wired desktop mac and wifi for iPhone

    Sorry if this has been already answered a million times. I have a desktop mac with a cable modem ethernet internet connection. I want to leave this hard-wired and setup a wifi network for a laptop or iPhone. What's the cheapest easiest way to do this?? I've never done anything wireless before.

    Could I just somehow split the feed from the the cable modem or ethernet cable and route part of it into an AirPort express??
    Unfortunately, no. This would create "confusion" for the modem as it is only expecting a single device to be connected to it. To be able to support both wired & wireless clients, you would need an Internet router with a built-in Ethernet switch, like the AirPort Extreme Base Station. If cost is an issue, you do NOT have to use an Apple router. There are a number of other vendors, like Belkin, D-Link, Linksys, & Netgear, to name a few, that offer similar models.

  • Sent email from my iPhone not synching with my desktop Mac

    I am stumped. When I send email from my iPhone (using my POP account) the email is sent, shows up in my iPhone sent folder but does not show up in the sent folder in the Mail application on my desktop plus the little icon showing that I responded is not there. I guess it is not synching. This is a problem because I often don't recall if I responded to an email from my iPhone and I end up responding again to the email when I see it on my Mac desktop. My synch is working great with contacts and calendars, both push and fetch. I am also receiving emails, push and fetch, just fine. Can anyone offer advice or insight? Thanks!

    I am having the same problem. When I send from my iPhone (old version), the messages are not shown in my send folder on my desktop Mac. They are showing up in MobileMe, however. I have checked settings on my Mac and on the phone and still can't figure out what has happened. This all started with the new syncing system.
