Hi @nabtron,
sounds like a Firewall problem. Make sure that the Node executable in Brackets is allowed to connect outside of Brackets.
The steps are as follows:
- Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
- Click Security or Security & Privacy.
- Click the Firewall tab.
- Unlock the pane by clicking the lock in the lower-left corner and enter the administrator username and -password.
- Click Advanced to customize the firewall configuration.
- Click the Firewall Options button
- Click the Add Application (+) button.
- Select the app you want to allow incoming connection privileges for.
- Click Add.
- Add the node executable in Brackets folder (should be something like
~/Applications/Brackets/node) - Click OK.
When I click extensions manager, it keeps loading. All tabs are like this.
Although if I drag any zip file to the drag here point, it installs fine.
It started with version 1.5, updated to 1.6 and it's still the same.
I'm on mac osx 10.7.5
