Hi there! I see you're getting a "no internet connection" message with the Yummly Recipes & Meal Planning app on your Mac running OS X 10.15.7. Let's work through this together.

Could you tell me a bit more about when this happens? For example, does the app show this message right at startup, or only when you try to do certain actions like loading recipes? Also, are other apps or websites on your Mac able to connect to the internet without issues? That way, I can better understand if this is isolated to Yummly or a broader network problem.

In the meantime, here's a straightforward checklist to get started:
1. Double-check your internet connection on the Mac by visiting a few websites in your browser.
2. Quit the Yummly app completely and then restart it. Sometimes apps need a refresh.
3. Make sure the Yummly app is updated to the latest version via the Mac App Store. An outdated app can cause connection errors.
4. Restart your Mac to refresh network settings and app caches.
5. If you have any firewall or security software running, ensure it isn't blocking Yummly’s internet access.

If you’ve already tried these, just let me know which ones, and we can dig into more specific solutions like checking for any service outages or adjusting app permissions.

How does that sound? Are you able to try these steps and update me?

Did not work

Thank you for letting me know that the initial steps didn't resolve the issue.

I did some checking and wanted to share something important: it appears that Yummly Recipes & Meal Planning is in the process of shutting down and will no longer be supported or accessible after December 20, 2024. That would explain the “no internet connection” message, as the app's servers or services might already be offline or winding down1 2.

If you rely on Yummly for your meal planning and recipe browsing, I recommend downloading any important recipes or content you want to save right away. The app or website may offer options to export or save recipes locally before the final shutdown3.

As a next step, would you like me to help you find alternative meal planning and recipe apps that work well on your Mac? Or assist you in exporting your Yummly content before it becomes unavailable?

Please let me know how you would like to proceed!

Is Yummly down today?

Thanks for your question about whether Yummly is down today.

Right now, Yummly is effectively shutting down its app and website services. The company has announced that they will close the app and website by December 20th, 2024. This means the app’s servers and services are either already offline or in the process of going offline, which is why you’re seeing connection issues. The team has posted notices about this shutdown and even offered users ways to download or save their favorite recipes before the final closure1 2.

If you’re trying to use Yummly today, the service is no longer available in its full form. If you’d like, I can help guide you toward exporting your saved recipes or recommend alternative meal planning apps that work well on your Mac. Just let me know!

Are you satisfied with that answer, or would you like help with next steps?
