Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS asks to update when server restarts

2017-11-12 Thread Michael Herger
I am running LMS v 7.9.1 on an iMac MACOS v 10.13.1. I keep getting a message that an update is available, do I want to update. I respond not now, but I keep getting the message. It even opens control panels by itself. Any ideas? Install the update :-). The message shouldn't pop up that often.
