See if OS X firewall is running

[Pierre Sahores]

Hi,

You just need to test the availability of the port(s) your app need to 
access to, in sending get or post http testing procs to a distant 
server. If the call is timing out, the firewall is blocking it. Else 
you don't have to care about the firewall anymore.

Hope this helps,

Best,
