not working at all I am just new
Hi Eric,
Have you read the advice here Setup computer and phone/tablet or emulator for live testing as you build It explains how to use the Companion.
Do you get error messages? If so what are they? We need more information about “not working” … Can you describe what happens when you try to use the Companion?
I cannot access http://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/, Any problems with the servers?, or it is my computer, but I was trying with different computers and nothing, please, can you help me?
The server is working good for virtually everyone so you need to do some detective work.
Here is a link where some users in Colombia are having issues with the AI2 Web page I can´t access "Create apps" button
Are you in Colombia? If yes, there are some suggestions in the above link . If you are not, the same suggestions might help you connect.
The problem might be with your isp blocking a http web page (which is where the AI2 app is hosted), or your virus checker is blocking the url (white list AI2 ?) . The problem might be a problem with your browser cache (clear it or try to use another browser … Chrome or Firefox … do not use Edge). Clearing the cache might allow you to connect. Does that help?
hey, I was about to say the same as eric but I have another detail… when I try to synchronize my project with my android phone by scanning the QR code it opens at first but after a few seconds, the app closes by itself without doing nothing before.
What’s the state of your “Use Legacy” checkbox in the companion? Does the behavior change at all if you change the state of that (before scanning the QR code)?
Does your project contain large images when uncompressed, e.g., 4kx2x images.
Thanks for your answer, yes I´m in Colombia not Columbia, Thanks for your response, I can’t really access it from my computer, but I tried another one with another internet provider, ETB, in my case I have Claro as a provider and for its security policy this page http: // ai2 .appinventor.mit .edu / is blocked because it is considered potentially dangerous, I called them and the answer they gave me is that they will unlock it, but after a week this has not happened, since it is blocked on the main servers and may depend on the negotiation that the owners of the MIT site do with Claro.
@Gata_Negra_Films Thanks for letting us know. As expected your isp is blocking App Inventor. Hopefully Claro in Colombia will unblock App Inventor’s http Web app soon. You can be patient or switch providers. Please let us know when they remove the Block. Thanks.
