    How do you know it didn't work? When working offline is enabled, the button is highlighted as in the second screenshot:

                      ONLINE                                 OFFLINE

    It will also say working offline in the status bar:

    If Working offline is enabled, click the button *once* and wait a few minutes for it to reconnect.

    I tried to turn off the work offline button, but that did not work. Any other ideas?

    This is not working for me. The red X will not go away, even though I’m clicking on that button, so I cannot switch to online. Many other people on this thread seem to be having the same problem.
