Imac 27 ATI Client not installing
UPDATE: Went to another Mac in the house with a working client. Copied the files from there to my wife’s desktop so it did not need to update/download anything and it still just shows the icon in the bar but never opens a launcher or show any activity onscreen at all.
I found the issue. We use Norton Security and at some point the GW2 client failed and got locked in Norton Firewall. When I deleted the client the item was identified as an unknown item. When i refreshed the OS and deleted the client the firewall application was of course unaffected. I found the stuck line item in the connection manager. Once I told it to close the connection the client then loaded and began to update. Most likely others won’t experience this unique failure but figured I would share so you could log it in the known error database. “Check for stuck or unknown connections in your firewall”
Problem solved, this thread is now closed.
