In the last few days, have you installed any other software? Perhaps
something has changed your firewall settings.

What version of IDLE are you using? That used to be a common
error message but since Python v2.6 I've never had it. If its an older
version than that you could try upgrading your Python version.

Other than that there is a dedicated IDLE mailing list which
is quite responsive and should be able to help if you don't
get an answer here. The gmane link is:

gmane.comp.python.idle

[Tutor] IDLE Subprocess Startup Error

2016-07-29 Thread Darah via Tutor
Hello, 

I’ve been using Python’s IDLE for a couple of weeks now and it has been working 
fine but a few days ago I started getting this error message "IDLE's subprocess 
didn't make connection.  Either IDLE can't start a subprocess or personal 
firewall software is blocking the connection.” 

I tried uninstalling it, restarting my computer, found a couple of people that 
said deleting the created .py files worked for them but it did not for me. 

I am not sure what else to do. Do you have any suggestions?

I am using OS X El Capitan 10.11.5 on mac 




Regards, 

Darah Pereira
