Title: MC 18 can't find Squeezebox!
Post by: philosurfer on November 28, 2012, 05:45:33 am

Hi. I'd made an earlier post under the assumption that MC 18 would find my Squeezebox/Whitebear devices as did MC 17 ... it doesn't. Is this possibly because I've still got MC 17 on the system (even though it's not running)?  I've searched everywhere I could possibly guess in MC 18, to no effect. If I pull up MC 17 (w/o 18 running, of course), everything works fine.  Thanks for any help you can give.

This is probably a firewall setup issue.  When software installers are run, they add rules to the Windows Firewall to open certain service ports.  Sometimes, users deny these, or installers don't do the right thing.  Often for users, just uninstalling/reinstalling the relevant software is easiest (MC and Whitebear, in this case).

Thanks so much - it worked on the second install.
