If you can't connect Logic Remote to Logic Pro X, GarageBand or MainStage

To connect Logic Remote, check the firewall settings on your Mac or remove a TouchOSC control surface from Logic Pro.

Before you check firewall and control surface settings, make sure your device running Logic Remote is on the same Wi-Fi network as your Mac:
