sorry my post about cloud storage isnt working for you guys, maybe it was coincidence that right after i turned it off it connected to friends list.

i tried all the other stuff listed throughout this thread and even re-installed origin several times, after all that was when i tried un-checking cloud storage. seemed at the time to be the problem or at least part of it.

and yes it was doing the whole looping the connecting "circle thing" forever until after about 10 mins it would tell me unavailable or tell me to make friends lol. so after 2 hours of pulling my hair i tried the cloud storage thing and it worked.

sorry if most of my post is redundant, but just trying to explain why i came to the conclusion that i came to.

Wait, you were actually able to get past the endless loop in the Friends list section?


Eventually it times out, and gives you the charming "You have no friends!" message in your Friends List. I went to my profile, where could see the short list of my friends and games. Trying to interact with anything (like Show All Friends) then gave me the Temporarily Unavailable message. I don't know how long it takes to stop trying; I only noticed it had timed out when I came back from lunch.

Edited for grammar


Ah, yep, i left it on for half an hour and went about doing some chores that needed doing, came back and i got the same thing. "You have no friends" and the other "Temporarily unavailable" messages.

1 hour to go for Operation Olympus and no fix. Awesome. <_<

Try and get in contact with your friends here on BSN.. You are still always welcome to use the chat on Team Banshee Bait's homepage so you can chat... :blush: Its a small help, but can STILL get in game with your friend if you do as we do...

Just finished a few Silver matches ~10 minutes ago, didn't have any problems. Oh well... it is EA. :pinched:

Has anyone tried installing an older version of Origin? A few months ago I was having problems logging in and an EA rep gave me a link to an older version, which worked. It may be worth trying in this case as well.

I don't have the old link, but this one should be close enough:

Yep even after they "fixed" it, it's not showing some friends. Seems related to who is in game, and who has restarted Origin.


Force close and force yourself offline

- Close ME3 if open.
- Quit Origin by pressing CTRL SHIFT ESC (this opens the task manager).
- Go to the Processes tab then click on Origin.exe then click [end process].
- Now immediately start Origin again. It will say you are logged in.
- Click the "Log in anyways" button.



Mess with your "status"

In Origin, set your status to invisible then back to online, restart origin.
Do this again except set your status to away and then back to online.
(it may be that you need to change the status like this in some other way too)



Re-install Origin

if the installer lets you I recommend installing it to a folder OTHER than C:Program Files or C:Program Files (x86)
An easy place would be making a new folder such as C:Origin


==========

These steps helped me get a partial list of friends back -- your mileage may vary.

The problem with that is, after you finish installing the older version you are either forced to "update" or "go offline"

+1 to the "origin sucks" comments. Its bad enough I randomly lose some or all my friends, and randomly get disconnected from origin about 1 game in 10 over the past few days, but it is TERRIBLE customer service not to even acknowledge there is a problem. Something to say "guys this is fubar for some people right now, we don't know why and we're really sorry and working to fix it" would be better than SILENCE.

This whole mess plus the history of EA and copy protection mean I'm now very very unlikely to spend any money with the company in the future. Gaming shouldn't make me angry, it should be FUN. Well, EA, THIS IS NOT FUN.

Sorry for the CAPS but I'm Beeeeeeping annoyed.

Yeah origin sucks, not enough to make me play XBOX or PS3 though :P

I dont know why they try and do "NEW AND IMPROVED" Origin and just mess everything up.

Follow this....

First delete C:/ProgramData/OriginLogs/Client_log.xml first.

Then re-launch Origin and login wait for a while.



Trying this now. For those who can't find ProgramData, it's a hidden folder so enable the visibility option of hidden folders by going to Organize->Folder and Search Options->Click on 'View' Tab and selec 'View hidden files and folders'

EDIT : The directions stated are for Windows 7 OSes.

It's C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application Data\\Origin\\Logs\\Client_Log.html for Win XP users.

Not that it helps. I still can't see any friends even after deleting it and restarting Origin. And people wonder why I have my signature...
