Easyfile 6.1.2. loggin in problems

[ABDurbs]

The anti-virus that caused a problem was AVG. I still have the instructions from SARS about how to set it to accept Easyfile should that be the problem.

Like Dave, I am also running out of ideas.

Hi Mike
I have having major issues with easyfile and have AVG installed. If you still have those instructions from SARS I would appreciate it.

Hi ABDurbs. Yes I still have it in PDF format. Cannot upoad it as it exceeds the size allowed by the forum. Can you Private Message me your email address and I can send it direct? It is only 684 Kb but the forum's limit is about 450Kb I think.

I've upped the limit for you, Mike - so feel free to give it another go.

Hi ABDurbs - See attachment.

Hi Mike

Thanks for that and the effort. It applies to AVG 2012 and not 2013 which is slightly different. I managed ot figure out the new menu and made the adjustments, but it has mad absolutley no difference. AVG are a nightmare when it come to support as are SARS who are even worse. I have been waiting 2 days from both.

I am at my wits end and have no idea where to go from here to get easyFile to work. I may just un install AVG all together and se what happens.

One thing I have noticed and I dont know if you can see it from the screen shot, but this is what comes up when I dbl click the easyFile program. I haven't lodded on yet, but it si showing as connected ? Any thoughts.

Hi ABDurbs - the fact that you are connecting makes me think that it is not the AVG anti-virus. Are you using a specialised firewall, as that can also sometimes cause problems.

If SARS finally sorts this out for you, you must come back and tell us what the solution was, as I would love to know - and it will also be very useful for others who might find themselves in the same boat.

OK I FINALLY (Still waiting for SARS) managed to get into easyFile. I had to install both 32 and 64Bit versions of Java6. Once I did that I could open up the new 6.2.2 I had installed. I then had to re enter all my passwords. Once that was done the program opened. I then restored my backups and the program froze again. I had to stop easyFile using Task manager. I then closed all AVG components, re opened easyFile and restored my backups, and it seems to be working fine now. The problem appears to be with my 64Bit system and only having Java6 64bit installed. Once I installed the 32Bit version it worked. I am going to hold off installing Java 7 untill I have done all I need to on easyFile, then I will see what happens.

Thanks for your help guys. Any other problems I have I will let you know.

Hi ABDurbs. Thanks for keeping us posted. I wouldn't have thought of that. I have a 64bit system with Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6 - as well as Java 7 update 17 installed and haven't had any hassles (yet) ... but I would agree with you to first finish your submissions before loading anything new.

Well done!

Has anyone found a solution to this problem? We definately have not forgotten the password. we have had this problem twice now, uninstalling and reinstalling not an option, we have about 250 databases. When you restore, you lose your demographic info. Last week we lost a days work and today it happened again, lost half a day. will have to back up every hour by the looks of it. Could it be the database is too big? Phoned the call centre, they had never heard of the problem.

Good Morning

I am having problems with my Easyfile, I have updated to the latest version. It lets me login without a problem but when I try synchronize using our efiling logins it says login in failed we have checked the login and work fine online. Our IT guys have had look and the pcs and everything looks fine. What could be causing the problem

Thank you

Hi, I think this might help - go to efiling - organisations - tax types. Make sure there is a tick on EMP501 submissions
