App Won't see PC - Tried Everything

#1

Post by Sickivionkey » Sun Mar 17, 2013 10:01 pm

Please help me... :crazy:

Running Windows 8 and trying to connect using the iPhone 5 app... and nothing seems to work:

1) Network Discovery is ON, but App (iPhone 5) can not locate.

2) Tried to Manually add PC in app. Click Save, it returns to setup screen without validation. "Detected PCs" is still empty.

3) Time on iPhone and PC are the same. (Within one minute, same day).

4) Diagnostics tell me everything is fine:

Running tests
Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0
OS type: x64
checking to see if cdatasvc is running
Running, everything looks good here.
checking to see if yammmsvc is running
Running, everything looks good here.
checking to ensure proper communication exists for apps
checking to see if valid settings on http://127.0.0.1:5832/
valid settings
Settings received from My Media Center v13.2.26.1063 on HOMETHEATERPC
Communication tests success.

*Sigh* Nevermind.

I force closed the app, then restarted the iPhone. It still won't see the PC during initial setup (wifi or via manual add), but if I cancel out of the initial setup I can add the PC manually with no issues.

Not sure if this is a bug with the app or Windows 8, but there you go.
