I just got c74 for my iphone4 trying to connect it to max5 on 10.6.7.

My problem is that i get a one-way-connection only: my max/msp on the MacBook tells me it is connected to my iphone but the c74-app keeps searching for a connection.

hi there!
I just got c74 for my iphone4 trying to connect it to max5 on 10.6.7.
My problem is that i get a one-way-connection only: my max/msp on the MacBook tells me it is connected to my iphone but the c74-app keeps searching for a connection.
I tried with different networks.

I was having this problem for a while, but it went away by updating the external, help patch, and iphone app. Then it worked like a charm.

Don't forget to include Max5 in your firewall preferences.

yeah, it's not the firewall - it behaves more like a loose contact: worked in the beginning but now doesn't.

i installed the newest updates ... too bad!

I'm having the same problem. I have the most recent version of both the external and the iPhone app. I launch Max and add the c74 external. I then launch the c74 app on my iPhone and the Max window says it is connected to my iphone. On the screen of the iPhone, though, all I get is a circling "Waiting for connection..." revolving around a number 1.

I've downloaded the c74 app (1.4.2) yesterday- same problem: Max window says connected, on the ipad "Waiting for connection" is circling around an 1...
