Autodesk won't let me access forums of AutoCAD

davidsemail916 — Tue, 01 Oct 2024 00:37:18 GMT

As soon as I log in, wether from Chrome or Safari, the browser immediately starts refreshing and logs me out. I can't post, or view forum threads. I FINALLY found a workaround and that is to access forums.autodesk.com via Incognito window. Happy to finally be able to communicate with you guys again, but a more permanent fix would be great!

Also, Autocad can't validate my license and won't open. I followed the prompts to the T and it'll work for 1 session and won't be able to authenticate my license. I'm using AutoCAD for Mac. Any ideas? Anyone?

Are you one a home network or your work's network?

How did you access this one? Incognito too?

Here is a licensing tool ( I know, licensing, but it's more than that)

Can you install it

and review the connection tab and see if anything is blocked. Want to check your access. Might be your anti-virus or firewall is blocking sites.

Is there some plugin in your browser that throws in a wrench?

We are having the same issue at our office. Opening the forum in Incognito mode worked! I had to take a screenshot of your reply in the moment before it started refreshing to even read your temp solution.
