Steinberg Download Assistant Error. A connection to the download server

I know other people have had this problem but I have seen no solution in the forums. I have made a ticket to Steinberg but in nearly a month they have not answered.
Bought an upgrade for my Cubase Artist but the SDA won’t connect with the server quoting only that a connection to the download server could not be established etc. Found that a patch was needed to upgrade it ,did that, no difference. reinstalled countless times and also eLicenser to be sure. Nothing!!!
Anyone help please

Hi
I have downloaded and installed and uninstalled that many times and it hasn’t worked

Continuous deinstall/install doesn’t help at all, if it didn’t work in the first place.

What operating system are you using? Do you have a firewall, that blocks, or is your virus scanner stopping you from the connection?

using Sonoma 14.1.2
will check firewall/ virus scanner although I am not good with these things- Using McAfee.
update…Firewall is off, in fact I have now turned off Total Protection and checked that internal Mac firewall is off

Still same outcome

Ok, so I’m the wrong person to help you any further here, because I avoid everything that is from Apple.

However, maybe @Martin.Jirsak has some more ideas here.

ok thanks

Hi,

Which Steinberg Download Assistant version do you have, please?

Hi Martin
