Thanks so much Jake, if you scroll down in the thread below, I found that pinging to localhost works. Mavericks somehow already had 127.0.0.1 set as local host, so I didn't change anything there.

Can you ping localhost? If not, that's your problem. For some reason my host stuff broke when switched to Mavericks. Fixing that fixed my flex debugging issues. My issue was I tried to copy my old host file over and it broke things. So, I started from scratch and made sure localhost worked, then slowly added my additions, checking along the way. -Jake On Wed, Feb 12, 2014 at 11:56 AM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: > Hmm.
