Error Ableton cant assign requested adress

Screenshot 2025-02-24 at 03.24.21

Hello,

I’m getting the following error message on Ableton: Control Surface 1 (Ableset) ERROR: Cannot bind to (127.0.0.1):(49) (Can’t assign requested address) trying again.

Already rebooted, tried to reinstall both ableset and the ableset plugin
but the same happens. Has anyone faced this problem before?

Sequoia 15.3.1
Ableset 2.7.5
Live 12.1.1

Thank you for any help. :slight_smile:

Hey @Rskeys_S, welcome to the forum!

I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues trying to connect to Live!

Could you send me a log package so I can take a closer look at what might be causing this issue? You can create one by opening AbleSet’s status window, clicking the settings icon on the top right, and then selecting “Create Log Package”.

To send it to me, upload it to my support inbox.

My hunch is that either Ableton Live doesn’t have network permissions in macOS or there’s an issue with the loopback network interface at 127.0.0.1.

I’m looking forward to your reply and hope we’ll find a solution soon! :slight_smile:

Hey Leo! I ended up fixing the problem, I retraced my steps using the mac and apps and I think some ports might have been blocked due to messing with Ad hock connections in the macbook, what once was a simple and excellent feature on macs that allowed us to easily create a wireless network to do simple things like connecting an iPad using Logic remote app without the need for routers is now a mess of menus and different designations, apple being apple… Long story short, I deleted the created Ad hock connections, rebooted the macbook and voilà, everything works as it should.

Thank you.

Hey @Rskeys_S, that’s great to hear! I’m glad you found a solution :slight_smile:
