Can't Connect to Service when attempting to login to Unity 5.1.1 client

Hey guys! I am trying to get into learning Unity, but when I start the client to log in for the first time, it won’t let me connect. I tried this a week ago, thinking the servers were simply down for maintenance, but I still can’t connect. I would like to start learning as soon as I can!

Thanks for your help!

Hmm I just DL it and trying to start my project and its saying connecting now for an hour is this the same for you?. Try Dl unity 5 that did not need the connection.

Looks like it started importing my project so panic over. just took a long time. Is it saying connecting or something else?

I’m having the same issue. I installed Unity for the first time, opened it up, and now I’ve had a window that says “connecting” for the last hour.

Ah! create an account with unity, restart the client, and then sign in. that worked for me.
