127.0.0.1 refused to connect error message

[ajm3ss]

Cannot access SketchUp Pro 2024. While working on model a pop-up advised that I would not be able to log on after this session. I have a subscription that expires in 2/2025. The error message was “127.0.0.1 refused to connect”. I have contacted via email and was given a case #10742020.

I have no firewall. I believe this issue is a localhost error which requires validation

This was the thread that provided a clue and solution but I was not successful. However I believe it is linked to a firewall issue. Will still be searching. thx.

127.0.0.1 took too long to respond - can't log in - 1st time this has happened, I have internet

This is the first time this has happened to me and it is quite frustrating considering it is only a problem with the subscription service and not with the old faithful classic license that I was convinced to leave behind! I have internet, and once a month, I log in and all is well, but something has changed and now it is saying that the site cannot be reached, and I cannot use my software that I pay for annually - which by the way costs considerably more these days after it was sold onto Google…
