Luminar Neo is not working
Answered
Now I have downloaded Luminar Neo and I can open it. I can browse Menus and Features.
The only Feature which works is crop the picture!
I have heard that Firewall can have effect on the program.
What can I do? I have Windows-PC with Windows 11.

Same problem. Impossible to run Luminar Neo. Always have the message box "The connection has timed out. Check your Internet, amtivirus, or firewall settings and try again." Impossible to find a solution. I've checked firewal and antivirus. Everything is ok.
Please, how can I use this software ?
Thanks for the answers and solutions.

Hi All!
Antti, do you observe the same message as Philippe - "The connection has timed out. Check your Internet, antivirus, or firewall settings and try again"?
If there is no such notification and the tools are disabled, please contact our support team via support@skylum.com or https://skylum.com/support and we will consult you in a more detailed way.
Philippe,
Something on your part is likely blocking access to our servers. Please follow these steps:
- Add Luminar to the antivirus exclusion list. Consult your antivirus manual for help.
- If your router has a firewall, also temporarily disable this element.
- If Unified Threat Management (UTM) software is installed, it can also cause the indicated error. Temporarily disabling the mentioned program could resolve the issue.
- Make sure you are using an administrator account: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4026923/windows-10-create-a-local-user-or-administrator-account
- Try connecting through the VPN.
- If possible, try to select another Internet connection - there may be a setting in your network that is blocking outgoing connections. Some of our users have reported that using a mobile hotspot helps:I. Here are the instructions for iOS: https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/share-your-iphone-internet-connection-iph45447ca6/ios

Hello,
Thanks for your answer.
I've uninstalled the complete software. The I've shut down my UTM software (MacAfee LiveSafe). I've re-installed Luminar Neo and used my mobile internet connection (with Android Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra). I've succeeded to access to connect my account to the software (it was impossible before) and now the software works great.
I've reactivated MacAfee and my usual internet connection. Everything is ok.
Apparently, the problem was due to the internet connection (I used fiber connection). Using my mobile hotspot allowed me to connect the software to my account and now, I don't have the error message anymore.
I hope the problem if permantly fixed.
Thanks for your help. I hope this will help other users.

Bei mir startet NEO erst gar nicht, nach der Meldung "Authentifizierung abgeschlossen" geht es nicht mehr weiter - der Bildschirm bleibt stehen.
LUMINAR AI läuft gut, NEO wird auch in der Verlinkung angezeigt allerdings mit 0/1 Aktivierung.Warum komme ich hier nicht weiter?
LG Ulli
