    List what you have done. 'Everything' doesnt give us any info

    Have you port forwarded?
    Have you allowed java and 25565 etc through windows firewall?
    Do you have a antivirus program? Allow everything (run.bat etc) through it.

    Edit: OH so now you tell me you're on mac. -.-

    Take a look at Troubleshooting: Common Problems with Solution

    Excerpt:

    Error: Friends are unable to connect?

    Check if your port is open with http://canyouseeme.org/
    If it isn't, you need to check your firewall (either router, or on the server itself, or both). Make sure you have your server-ip= blank (in server.properties).​

    Test your DNS if you are trying to connect with a name, not IP (ex: test.server.org, not 123.123.123.123). A simple test is to ping your DNS name (ex: ping test.server.org). If you do not see a IP address being resolved (even if it doesn't respond to a ping) you have a DNS problem.​

    Possibly you have a firewall blocking external connections but allowing yours. Your router might be doing this as well.

    I'm not familiar with OSX, but I imagine there could be an internal firewall you need to disable or add proper connections to.
     
  7. but it was working last night just fine and i didnt add or change anything. when it when it went down.

    i also turned my firewall off and had them try to join and same error message came up.

    Creating 3 threads doesnt solve it. Simply bump one thread every 24 hours, or when it oes past page five.

    Creating multiple threads with the same question and the same exact problem is not correct. you can simply edit your original thread to have all your videos explanations and audio tapes as you please, creating multiple threads is just plain annoying.

    Edit:
     
  13. still nobody was helping me well they did then they stopped but when i posted a new thread i got more help.
    sorry officer.

    Im not liking that smart remark... This thread has been reported (Along with the other 3) to the Bukkit staff. They will merge the threads, or lock them. Never create more than 1 thread (on the same topic) again.
     
  15. you didn't solve it you tell everybody with the same problem to do the same thing and when thats not how you solve it.

    What you wanted to do, was get peoples attention, by putting your thread at the top. The simplest way of doing that, is bumping the original thread. Duplicates will not be tolerated, let alone triplicates...
     
  17. your not even on the staff so why are you acting like your an admin or moderator. lol

    Im not a staff or a moderator. Im following the rules.
     
  19. i didn't say you are i said your acting like one of them so you can become one when you don't even help people you just point out what they did wrong on the forum.

    cray_Z

    Well you did say "why are you acting like your an admin or moderator. lol"

    I help out. I tried to help you, I simply didn't know the answer. So i stopped.
    I have helped many people. Maybe not you.

    I would appreciate it, if you would stop complaining, and follow the rules.
     
  21. Once again the key word in that sentence is ACTING doesn't mean i said you are. im not complaining your the one being a baby and saying don't post three threads who cares your the only one who is complaining.

    The port checker tool doesn't work for me, but my test server's running fine (port forwarded and all, I would know). Why does the port checker not work for me? :confused:
