Can't buy gems
I can't buy gems currently. I am playing on mac thru the epic games store. When I try to buy gems, I get stuck on a "waiting for server" screen. It has been several hours.

I am on a Mac using the Epic Game Store client. I am having the same problem where I cannot buy anything in the store. I get a "Waiting for Server" message.

Ok worked it out, install MTGA on your desktop, right click on it and open get Info then select open with rosetta. Can make purchases again!

Reported this to support, advised they cannot assist. Disappointing, have spent thousands of dollars on this game over five years never had an issue until this.

I'm also having this problem. MacOS Sequoia 15.6.1.
Things I've tried to solve this problem which have not fixed it:
Restarting Arena
Restarting my computer
Logging out of Arena and logging back in
Uninstalling and reinstalling Arena
Deleting local log files from Arena (~/Library/Application Support/com.wizards.mtga + ~/Library/Logs/Wizards Of The Coast + ~/Library/Caches/com.wizards.mtga + ~/Library/Application Support/com.wizards.mtga + ~/Library/Application Support/Wizards Of The Coast + ~/Library/Caches/com.wizards.mtga + ~/Library/Logs/Wizards Of The Coast + ~/Library/Preferences/com.wizards.mtga.plist)
Uninstalling + reinstalling the Epic Games Launcher, including manually deleting all local log files for the Epic Games Launcher that I could find (~/Library/Application Support/Epic + ~/Library/Application Support/EpicGamesLauncher + ~/Library/Caches/com.epicgames.EpicGamesLauncher + ~/Library/Logs/EpicGamesLauncher + ~/Library/Preferences/com.epicgames.EpicGamesLauncher.plist + ~/Library/Saved Application State/com.epicgames.EpicGamesLauncher.savedState + /Library/Application Support/Epic + /Library/LaunchAgents/com.epicgames.* + /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.epicgames.*)

Same problem. Quite bizarre tbh xD You would think they would do everything in their power to allow people to SPEND

I found a workaround in another thread, credits to MädschigSeGesering#87526:
> go to the folder where the mtga-app is inside
> right click
> get info
> open using rosetta
> I opened mtga and it worked fine for me then -

I'm having the same issue.
One work-around suggested is to load the game through your mobile device. Except that the same bundle I'm trying to buy is $20 more expensive if I use the mobile device vs. Epic Games. It's ridiculous.

This is a problem for many mac users and nothing suggested on the forum fixes it...
