Our Kids received a new iMac and SPORE for Christmas. Maybe we need something like little snitch to tell us exactly what the name of the server spore is trying to contact I also tried leaving restrictions on, but obviously that didn't work either. I have tried turning on restrictions, adding and .com to the allowed list, then turning the restrictions back off. Iĭo want to enable them, so I need to solve the problem. In fact I had forgotten that I even had PC turned on. Which didn't help me since, as I say, I don't even have restrictions enabled. Save the file modified file by pressing Ctrl+S, and leave nano with Ctrl+X. Now, please move the cursor down to the line labeled '127.0.0.1 .com' and erase it like you would do in any text-file. You can do this by typing the command 'sudo nano hosts' (again without the quotes). Open a terminal, which can be found under Utilities, in the Apple Folder.Īt the $ prompt, please type 'cd /etc' (without the quotes). If you are still experiencing this error, please try the following steps below to retrieve the license from the server: If that doesn't work, please try installing and running the game as a user with Administrator access.

You will need to add the Spore game and website so that you can download the license from the server. You may be getting this error if you have the MacOS Parental Controls feature active and set to deny access to some or all websites. Thank you for contacting Electronic Arts.

So I think it's something more fundamental.

I don't know if it does, but in my case I don't even have restrictions turned on.
