Jan 24, 2015 3:04 PM in response to BDunniby BDunni,I should also note that I had TouchOSC installed on my previous installation of Logic Pro 9, but I uninstalled and deleted (and emptied trash) any related to TouchOSC.

Jan 24, 2015 4:57 PM in response to BDunniby The Art Of Sound,In Logic's CS screen... the only thing you see there is Logic Remote?
If not then again trash the Main LPX prefs and CS Prefs in exactly this way...
Delete the user preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
- Quit Logic Pro
- In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
- Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
- Press the Go button.
- Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
- If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove ~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
- Restart the computer.

Jan 24, 2015 6:55 PM in response to The Art Of Soundby BDunni,In Logic, the remote doesn't even show up at all as a control surface. The option to choose my computer/logic shows up on my iPad but when you click it, it never connects.
I tried deleting the user preferences as instructed above and that had no effect.

Jan 24, 2015 7:07 PM in response to BDunniby The Art Of Sound,Thats why its not working... It should show up under the CS Setup window

To fix...
Quit, (not close) Logic Remote on iPad
http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/28/quit-apps-in-ios-7/
Go to menu item Logic Pro X >Control Surfaces > Setup
Now click on the New button at the top of this window... and choose Install
Now click on the Logic Remote entry in the next window and press Add button at bottom Right corner
Launch Logic Remote on iPad
-
Jan 24, 2015 7:10 PM in response to The Art Of Soundby BDunni,It seems as if we are getting closer. I added the logic control surface and now the connect icon on my iPad is spinning instead of telling me it can't connect.
Unfortunately its been about 3 minutes of spinning.
*scratch that, it says it can't connect again
-
Jan 24, 2015 7:17 PM in response to BDunniby The Art Of Sound,In this exact order...
Remove Logic Remote Entry from CS Setup Screen
Quit (not close) Logic Remote App
Shut Down (not Restart) Mac
Soft Reset iPad
Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake/Power button and the Home button together for about ten seconds. The Apple logo will appear, and the device should complete the soft reset.
Start Up Mac
Launch Logic Pro X and create a new Project
Launch Logic Remote
Look for confirmation dialog box on Mac

Jan 24, 2015 7:19 PM in response to The Art Of Soundby The Art Of Sound,If the above doesn't work over WiFi..Turn off WiFi on your iPad and then try Bluetooth... repeating all steps above...
If Bluetooth works then this indicates a problem with your home Network/Router.... (Make sure both devices are on the exact same WiFi network) or Firewall.
-
Jan 24, 2015 7:38 PM in response to The Art Of Soundby BDunni,I followed your steps exactly, doing it one time each for both wifi and bluetooth and it didn't change anything.
It's very strange because I can see logic from my iPad on both wifi and bluetooth, it just won't connect. If I close logic pro x then it disappears from the ipad, so I know they are communicating.
Btw, thanks for helping me out so far
-
Jan 24, 2015 7:49 PM in response to BDunniby The Art Of Sound,...and you didn't get the dialog box on your Mac asking permission to connect?
If not, thats a clue as to why things are not working......
Did you ever see such a dialog box?
-
Jan 24, 2015 7:54 PM in response to The Art Of Soundby The Art Of Sound,One other thing to try to discount any possible network issues is....
https://brianli.com/using-logic-remote-with-a-local-ad-hoc-wi-fi-network/
Then connect the iPad to that network....
Note: I changed the link to one specifically for Logic Remote use
-
Jan 24, 2015 8:03 PM in response to The Art Of Soundby BDunni,Hmmm, very strange. I'm getting the exact same issue happening with the adhoc network. I can see my iMac/Logic Pro X but I can't connect.
I followed all the instructions in that new link and ended up with the same result.
I've never had the pop up/dialog box that you mentioned. This is quite the enigma
-
Jan 24, 2015 8:11 PM in response to BDunniby The Art Of Sound,I've never had the pop up/dialog box that you mentioned. This is quite the enigma
Well, whatever is preventing that dialog box appearing.. is why LR cannot connect to your mac because it will not do so until you give it permission..... via the dialog box that pops up on your Mac...
Something, somehow, is preventing it's appearance....
Single screen? if not, disconnect extra monitors and try again....
Otherwise...
As to what that might be? No idea.. but it's certainly a clue .......
So.... Basic troubleshooting time... to see if anything is installed that could be conflicting with something...
Please download Etrecheck from here...
http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
..and then launch Logic Pro
Now run Etrecheck and post up the full report here....
Thanks...

Time to do some cleaning up... as there is a lot of crud in there (and in other areas) that could easily be causing issues like Shades...Button Mangers, iTouch Server, TouchOSC bridge.... and so on....
