IDE project creation fails on Mac for versions 13 and 14

Using a Mac, I have downloaded Eclipse 3.3.2 and installed the WST and Force.com IDE per the instructions. Installation appears to install correctly, but when I go to add a new Force.com project I get an error in the project creation dialog box upon clicking the Next button.

Error:
Unable to connect to hostname 'www.salesforce.com'

Method not implemented


If I download version 12 of the IDE, I can create a Force.com project using the same settings.

Any ideas on how to resolve the issue would be greatly appreciated.

When you installed a later version, did you remove the previous versions? if not then please do.
Do check the /plugins and /features folder too to ensure that only the 14.0 related jars are present.

This is a clean install of Eclipse and the Force.com IDE.

Looks like the problem was using Pulse to set up my Eclipse environment. When setting it up manually, I was able to create a version 14 project.

I am curious as to what changed.
What was Pulse doing that you had to remove to get it working?
was it an eclipse.ini setting or a jdk compliance setting or a jre setting or something else...

Thanks

I'm not sure what was missing. Pulse (at least the free version) doesn't allow fine-grained control over the different packages that are installed since the purpose of Pulse is to make it easy to setup Eclipse workspaces. I just manually installed Eclipse separately to get it working.

Note: This is NOT a Mac-specific problem. I installed on Windows, again using Pulse, and got the same error, then installed manually and it worked.
