@Poppadocrock I was using this for a while, but I found it ended up w/ sync drift and issues w/ having to reconfigure it too often... Maybe just my level of midi sync skills.
You may just need to open a port (20808) in your firewall. See https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/209073069-Link-Troubleshooting.
What security stuff is running on the Mac that might interfere?
@dj8 maybe the app midi link sync might give better results then link to midi.
Link is working!!
It's a big holiday over here at my place today. I'm ridiculously excited about this!!!
Thank you all for helping me fix this... I work heavily with both iPad and Mac and not being able to sync has been really hard to work with.
It was my firewall settings @uncledave, thank you!
Will also check out midi link some more too, @Alfred. I have it and tried it some but didn't get far with it. But, will be great to have a direct midi option too.
Sorry... left out a crucial detail... I decided to go back to wifi yesterday, and it still wasn't working.
For this set up, the firewall changes allows me to use Link now.
Still don't have it working yet with wired, no internet only... But, hopefully all is well now as far as making music.
I just test Ableton Live 10 connected to my iPad via USB/Lightning cable (wifi is off on my iPad, btw) and it works perfectly. I used the Content Sharing trick I linked to above. This is with High Sierra on the Mac and iOS 13.7 on the iPad.
If this isn't working, I wonder if something isn't set up quite right in either Ableton or in the Sharing preferences.
I do recall that the first time I got this set up last year (to do some SonoBus tests that I goofed on something at first.
@dj8: I just did a test using the StudioMux beta -- instead of using the Network Content Sharing -- that also worked. You might try that if you can't get the content sharing setup working.
I just tested with the lightning cable to USB with no StudioMux and no content sharing -- and it worked like a charm.
If you have IDAM turned off,I wonder if there is a setting inside Ableton that isn't right.
Thanks for all the help!! I'm sorry to tap out, but I've spent countless hours trying to fix this and I'm in kind of buzzed from it working now using wifi.
@espiegel123 I will get back into this and try out all of your suggestions. I'm determined to get the wired solution going. And it will be a much needed back up if I need to go w/out wireless again.
Good luck. Hopefully your wi-fi is better than mine. Sync over wi-fi on my network isn't very stable.
