Also, I can’t sign in to either warehouse in MSIE outside of SketchUp - I get the very similar-looking “Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage” error screen. I was careful to sign out through SU 2013 before trying to sign in with 8 and '14. But SU 2013 seems to sign in to the Extension Warehouse (only) just fine. When I click the 3D Warehouse “Sign In” link in SU 8 or SU 2013, or either the 3D Warehouse or Extension Warehouse “Sign In” link in SU 2014, they all give me the “This program cannot display the webpage” error screen (screenshot detail below). SU 8 of course doesn’t have access to the Extension Warehouse. I can ONLY log in to the SketchUp Extension Warehouse through SU 2013. I appreciate that Trimble needs cash flow to maintain and improver SU and monthly subscriptions are becoming the new normal but $25/month seems a bit high for me.This is a weird one: I have an old system, Win XP SP3 and MSIE 8, with SU 8, 20 installed. I would accept a monthly charge of say $10-$15 much as Adobe charges for their monthly subscription to Photoshop and Lightroom called their Photography Plan. Wish there was a less expensive option than SU Pro for $300/year for retirees and long term SU users. Both 3d Warehouse and Extension Manager both said I needed an Internet connection even though I verified that MS Edge was my default browser. I tried again later and could not connect.

The first time I tried using SU with Edge as my default browser, everything worked as expected and I could connect to 3d Warehouse and Extension Manager. I changed browsers from Chrome (which I have been using for years without problem) to Edge. Now it never connects saying I need an Internet connection.

Sometimes it would connect and sometimes it wouldn’t. I discovered that within the last week or so, I was having difficulty accessing the 3dWarehouse and the Extension Warehouse. Not enough income to justify the yearly $300 license fee. I own a perpetual license to SketchUp 2018 and as a retired architect, I mostly use SketchUp for hobby fun and small projects where I can charge a small fee.

I’ve tried all the fixes I can institute from home without an IT person to check which ports I have assigned.
