Possibly - the program looks for LMS on your LAN i.e. it broadcasts a datagram packet to which any running LMS server should respond - this version stops scanning as soon as it gets a response from any server ( first server to answer is taken ) so if you have more than one it could cause a problem if it doesn't pick the right one. For example my home setup runs on a Raspberry Pi which is visible therefore available to any device on my network. So when I run the program on my Windows laptop it finds the server running on the Pi and connects to it. What network setup do you have ? how many LMS servers do you have ? it's common to have multiple players but not servers ( don't see the point ) but be aware just because you have a server running on your IMac if it isn't available on your LAN it wont be found. We can't stop here this is bat country.
