prabeau Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Just updated to 3.1 all working great except Composer HE 3.1 will not load the project. Says unable to connect to 192.168.1.182 and that is the proper address. My installer says that he had the same problem with another project. Anybody running HE 3.1 on Windows 7. 1) never upgrade on a Friday 2) old operating systems with newer applications .... ?

Cyknight Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 First thing I'd check is make sure your network is set to 'private' - but I've got no Win7 around to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mallom Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I believe Win7 is no longer supported. -defunct- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I had used XP for composer long after it was not supported. Just don't want to spend $200 for windows 10 that only use for composer if I don't have to. Being a Mac guy.

Cyknight Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Don't think Win7 was dropped, though it wouldn't' be overly surprising it it was, or will be in the near future. Just about a decade old now. Plus, win7 won't be supported by Microsoft next year.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am using Windows 7 (no problems yet) Didn't find the answer and screwing around with windows brought back too many memories I don't care to revisit. Broke down and went Windows 10 ..... on //'s ver15. Works great I have to say. This was an added cost to my DIY upgrade to 3.1 I have an HC 800 and an older C4 touch screen that is not supported, so I replaced it with a Kindle Fire, pretty slick. Used the POE injector from original screen with a splitter. Have ordered a 90 degree connector to tidy up the connection.

jsimon77 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Did upgrading from windows 7 to windows 10 fix the problem and allow you to access composer HE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
