    I'm getting the same thing. This is ridiculous. I closed my internet so that I could get the offline window. I don't see any of my Assets. When I managed to log back in. I don't see any of the Assets I purchased. It's trying to get me to buy things I've already purchased.

    Hi,
    I am trying to download some of the free assets in the built in Asset store.
    Mainly the Mixamo Male character and the Third person MMO controller v1.0.
    But i keep getting a Failed to download , Could not resolve host: kharma.unity3d.com (Timeout while contacting DNS servers).
    All my other internet activities work fine, so i´m not sure if it´s a local problem or if the Asset Store server is down ?
    Is there an Asset store status page where one can check if it´s down ?
    I am in Portugal btw.
    Any help most welcome, thank you
    ps: I do see that it creates empty folders in "User/Library/Unity/Asset Store" with the titles of the assets i am trying to download.

    The Master Server provided by Unity is also down.

    Please use the bugteporter (accessible from the Unity help menu) to report problems with the asset store. We fixed the issue causing the "unknown error" message when downloading Mixamo animations from the download manager early last week. Remember to attempt a download just before you submit the bug so the log fles submitted with the report contain as much relevant information as possible.

    What happens if you select "Reload" in the Asset Store window context menu? (Accessible by right-clicking on the "Asset Store" tab)

    This thread mentions multiple errors. Can you specify which one you are having?

    After hitting re-load each reload generated one error. I've grouped all of the errors.
    TypeError: Result of expression 'b.id' [undefined] is not an object.
    TypeError: Result of expression 'a$.login' [undefined] is not an object.
    TypeError: Result of expression 'a$.login' [undefined] is not an object.
    TypeError: Result of expression 'a$.login' [undefined] is not an object.

    [Manually trapped Exception] Result of expression 'this.fromContext.results' [undefined] is not an object.

    After the 5th reload I finally got my offline assets to show and the Unity Asset store to show. I should not have to do this. Last night when I logged in. I got to see everything on the first try. Now I've been getting these problems for the past 4 days. These are server side errors.

    Don't be happy too fast. Last night I logged in fine. This morning I had to do the same Gymnastics again to get my assets to re-appear.

    Just FYI, I'm unable to login on the asset store at the moment. I can type in my username and password, click the login button, and then nothing happens. I submitted a bug report through the editor tool, along with a little rant of mine about the asset store.

    aaaand the bug is back :(

    it seems to happen everytime i delete stuff from my project that i downloaded from the asset store. i used the testflight addon and it worked. then i deleted everything from it with "delete" and wanted to redownload testflight and boom. the error is here again and i cannot use the store.

    how can single apps kill the whole thing?

    I don't understand why Asset Store is so problematic. I still have this problem where Asset Store would report all my extensions are "up to date" even though they are not, and I have to manually update each (or check versions myself and update each). It also won't resume when connection is broken while you are downloading so it get stuck at whatever % you are downloading until you restart your computer.

    So, who's responsible for the Asset Store portion at UT? I SAY FIRE THEM! Okay I am kiddin' I am kiddin', no seriously you guys should start looking for another job......:D

    I just purchased some stuff and I'm getting a download error. Tried it on 2 different machines. The error says:

    "Download Failed. Could not download 'industrial buildings'. Could not resolve host: kharma-1.unity3d.com (Could not contact DNS servers).

    This is getting pretty sad. I just downloaded something, tested it, exited unity, and now I can't get back into the asset store!
    "TypeError: Result of expression 'itemjson.title' [undefinied] is not an object."

    And I can only see a few of my previous purchases in the history page. I can't reimport the stuff I've already bought.

    Are you hosting this on GoDaddy or something?

    Here is my bug report too. Case 425727. Today I finally got a chance to un-install Unity 100%, get the latest version of unity. Version 3.4.2. After the clean install I did not get Any errors from Angrybots demo. The Angrybots demo in the Asset Store has a bunch of errors. The first time I opened the Asset Store. I was good. I thought I was making progress. Closed Unity. Came back to the same Angrybots demo. Opened the Asset Store. Bam!!!! Blank screen. Refresh several time. several errors. After a good two minutes of refreshing, I was finally able to get to see my offline Assets and the Asset Store.

    If the Asset store is able to Study the collaboration I did with Alex. The Asset Store would never get that blank screen again. I know the final result would not be 100% the same. The logic would still be very similar. When using the Www class there are a lot of times when not all of my remote Assets would download. After a couple of weeks of advanced research and some insight from Alex I came up with what you see in the following video. In the background the try to get the Asset, If I the download is successful I use a hashTable to map the Asset to the correct location. if the download fails because the connection times out I will re-try to download the remote asset 10 more times. 90% the current code is able to get the correct Asset in less than 3 tries. There's a good chance that's what the problem with the Asset Store is. It's trying to get everything or nothing instead of don't everything one at a time.

    So in the main log-in window the Assets and icons could benefit from this download pattern.

    if you have Unity 3.0 or above you can just go to "Window, AssetStore" if you don't have 3.0 or newer, you will not be able to access the Asset Store.

    I don't know if you saw the video I did. freyr from the Asset Store told me to delete the Asset Store folder. Today when I went on there, I did not get a single error or a single crash. However, Most of the stuff I paid for are not showing up. Example: "UniSky, Easy Roads Pro, AI Driver... etc" That's a lot of money... I've had them not show up before. I'll wait a couple of days and see if it's just the update. Besides from not seeing a lot of the expensive stuff I paid for. I haven't gotten a single crash today. My Mac Asset Store is behaving a lot like my Windows Asset Store. They should add a "factory Reset button" That button will automatically delete the Asset store folder so that user can start over when the Asset store starts acting up.

    i don't see any asset store folder in my project. i really would prefer a stable version from unity itself without 3rd party stuff.
