ahmufcwafc Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 So you've tried this specific solution then? You receive the ‘Error: Application was unable to connect to the internet. Please check your connection.’ Fix: 1) Open IE and go to: https://fm2009.sa01.softanchorinsight.com 2) Here if you are using IE7 it will prompt you – “There is a problem with this website’s security certificate.” 3) Next, Click – “Continue to this website (not recommended)”. However – this is okay, it is safe. 4) Look up top at your IE address bar – you will see “Certificate Error”. Click this box, then click “View Certificates”. 5) Press, “Install Certificate…” 6) Select the “Place all certificates in the following store”. 7) Press “Browse” 8) Select “Trusted Root Certificate Authorities”. Not this will install the Go Daddy (a reputable) certificate into your trusted root certificate authorities if it is not there. 9) Press OK 10) Press Next 11) Press Finish Close IE, then Reopen it and to go to https://fm2009.sa01.softanchorinsight.com. Note: on this visit, you will be allowed without trouble. From here – 1) Reopen your FM2009 game 2) Enter your key into the Activation Dialog 3) Select the “Online” activation 4) Press Next You game should activate immediately. If you are install the certificate incorrectly, the error message will still be visible – for more help on installing correctly, please visit: http://www.thebitguru.com/articles/13-Importing%2520a%2520Trusted%2520Root%2520Certifica tion%2520Authority%2520in%2520Windows%2520Vista/188-Installing%2520the%2520Certificate Please note: You will require your system clock to be set correctly, failure to do so will cause an error with HTTPS.
