I'm unable to connect using any of the 3 servers available, each time it tries for awhile then shows "Not connected". 
I'm using electrum 1.01-e (flatfly compact build) and this is the first time I've tried loading the program in about 2 weeks.

There aren't many settings I can change beyond switching servers so I'm kinda at a loss as to what to try next Undecided

Open your electrum.dat file in notepad (back it up first), and look for the server name
and port number currently in there (not too far from the top of the file). If you see port 50000, change it to 50001 and save. Now try to run Electrum again.
(This is a known occasional issue that will be fixed in the next release)

If that doesn't work, remove the electrum.dat file and recover your wallet from the seed.
