You will need to connect to the Internet properly. I'm guessing you're behind a firewall or router blocking that connection. — user98085, Feb 2, 2014 at 13:36
Since all those errors are connection failures, have you set up your firewall correctly? — DBS, Feb 2, 2014 at 13:37
I'm not sure why this needs closing. There is a problem, the answer might be obvi if you know where to look (but asker probably doesn't), but it has an answer. If this is about a meta decision, please link the meta in the comment before voting to close. — ave, May 21, 2016 at 23:00

Try connecting from a different connection and see if it works. Sounds like you are connecting behind a school/workplace connection, which is blocking it.

Download minecraft in minecraft.net, it will download the resource files.
Open minecraft launcher that you download in minecraft.net and login. 2a. If you do not have an account, register in minecraft.net.
Back to the launcher, go to the bottom left and click the edit profile.
check all the box except the version selections.
click play.
open your minecraft launcher that you need to fix and repeat the above steps. 7. click play when it is done loading. When the play button again is back in the normal color you need to restart your broken MC Launcher.

If all else fails, restart computer.

Your answer is very unclear due to lack of punctuation. You can edit your answer to fix this.
