Can't connect Logic Remote to my iMac

I picked up Logic Pro X the other day and cannot get the Logic remote working on my iPad 3. The remote app sees my iMac and the iMac displays the prompt saying that the iPad is trying to connect. But it never does and gives the error "Logic Remote was unable to connect to the selected Mac running Logic...". I have deleted it and reinstalled the remote app on the iPad several times times, deleted all control surfaces in Logic many times, restarted Logic, rebooted my iMac, unplugged the network cable and used my iMac wirelessly, turned on file and screen sharing, made sure my firewall is off, uninstalled and reinstalled the app on the iPad and nothing is working. I then tried installing Logic on my Mac Air laptop and it does the same thing - never connects.


Any suggestions?

iPad, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

Just a quick report: I struggled with the same issues. Different updates had made the previous flow between Logic Remote and Loci Pro 10 defunct. Logic Remote saw the program on my MacBook (the logo was visible, but the gear kept spinning and did not connect to go into the mixer window.

I deleted the logic preference files both cs and plist. But still not working. So I deleted Touch OSC from my iPad .

Now all works. Not sure if all this is necessary, but, anyway try this:

1.delete all Logic lists , both cs and plist in ~/Library/Preferences

2.Delete old Logic Remote from iPad, reinstall from the App store

3.Delete Touch OSC from iPad. I need it later, but not sure if there is a new version that will work on the same iPad as Logic Remote.

Good Luck.


Oh yes, and restart everything.
