"Unable to connect to the proxy server" Trying to connect to Netflix on google chrome, macbook?

When "A" stops working with "B", try "C". Test with Firefox. (MediaHint can be installed in FF also.)
If it fails with Firefox also, contact Netflix.

If it works with FF, remove the ad-on extension from Chrome and reinstall the extension... or just ditch Chrome, since it has no real advantages on a Mac.

Chrome facts….

– It is old-school 32-bit, so it is not compatible with the new Retina displays (text will look fuzzy: http://www.notebookreview.com/assets/65715.jpg )
– It is difficult to set preferences (a maze of extensive reading instead of just simple check box options.
– It is not as secure as Safari 6.
– It is not as customizable as Firefox.
– It is not faster than Safari (Using the latest RobotHornet testing). See this: http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2012/10/bro...era-12-02/
– It quits occasionally on two of my Macs where I use it just for testing.
– It takes up more than four times the drive space as Safari (140MB compared with 30MB)
– It uses six times the memory as Safari.
