  2. Open your CS Professional Suite product.
  3. Go to either File or Utilities, then CS Connect.
  4. Select the Connect Setup or Communications Setup button.

General troubleshooting

  • Close all programs and try to connect again.
  • Restart your computer and try to connect again.
  • If your computer is connected to a network, try connecting from a different computer to determine whether the problem is with your local computer or with the network.
  • If AOL is your internet service provider (ISP), try connecting through a direct (LAN) connection.
  • If an update is available for your application but CS Connect did not download it, try deleting and reinstalling the updates.
  • Disable all firewall, internet security, and spyware programs to see if these applications are causing problems with your connection. Be sure to re-enable these products when you finish troubleshooting.
