Eeven with the BOINC manager enabled all projects to download new tasks: from EINSTEIN no new tasks are downloaded; SETI reports that no tasks are available. ENIGMA works fine.
Where can the problem be?

What happens if you (temporarily) suspend Enigma?

And double check that Einstein has new tasks allowed (Projects tab, Einstein selected).

What are your cache settings (Computer is connected to the Internet about every __ days / Maintain enough work for an additional __ days) in your Computing preferences?

Perhaps with the 'resource share' preferences you have allocated to each project. As well as the cache settings that Gundolf mentioned, can you also tell us what resource shares you have allocated to each project? If you have a low setting for Einstein, it's possible that you may have already exceeded that share and BOINC will simply refuse to get more E@H tasks until other projects have 'caught up' with the share allocated to them.

Cheers,
Gary.

not trying to be a smart ass

not trying to be a smart ass but, make sure you have the settings set to allow einstein to accept new tasks and make sure you have network available set in the activities tab. If it is set to 'go by your settings' make sure you have your times correct and you are a 'time' where it is allowed to talk to the internet. Id swap it to always available just for a short time if necessary, then click projects, highlight einstein and click update to force it to update for you.

If you have cleared the path to the internet usage, and have einstein set to run, and are still not getting any tasks, please report here again and we will go from there.

If god meant for us not to BOINC he'd have made our #$%^%^ shorter!!

In the Boinc Manager, down by the clock, what is the resource share percentage for each project shown? Boinc can be very finicky if you try to manually mess with it but your problem should be fixable.
