0 Makkio Pearl Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 My mac also refuses to resolve, but the old mac had now updated yet and logs in fine. It is clearly a release issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Yoshimi Yoshikawa Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 yes, same problem here ...it must be an issue with the new release, I managed to login in fine on the previous version which was luckily on my older computer. Hopefully there will be a quick fix, I also tried with the new Beta release to no avail. Also, third party viewers are able to login fine. I imagine the Lindens will make an update to this problem very shortly, I certainly hope so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Peewee Musytari Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Here is a fix posted by Gio Solo that might help all of you: I found a temporary solution for my Mac. Now I can use Second Life Viewer 2.6.3. I found the solution here: http://neilrobinson.wordpress.com/2008/05/19/a-fix-for-dns-errors/ Basically I had to add the following additional DNS servers to my DNS settings in Network settings under System Preferences: 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 davidventer Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 While adding the DNS servers in system preferences seems to remove the DNS error, the viewer would still crash when reaching "Downloading Clothing" during the login process.

0 TaxieCat Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I had the same problem the minute the update was installed. I am currently using Viewer 2. Is there a fix for this yet? I had to download Phoenix in the meantime, but I would prefer to use V2. Help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Salexiss Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I have the same trouble with the latest viewer on a Mac. However, being of a paranoid nature about most things related to internet connections can anyone tell me what are these 2 DNS numbers really pointing to? 208.67.220.220 208.67.222.222 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
