Web interface connection question from new user

[ianmgull]

Apologies if this is a really simple question (I'm new to raspberry pi's and rune audio):

I installed rune on a new Raspberry Pi 3b. I set up the wifi, and added music to the library. I was able to connect to the web interface on my PC, but am having trouble with my laptop (which is a mac).

To connect on my PC, I typed http://runeaudio into my browser and was taken to the web interface.

When I do the same thing on my mac, I'm taking to the type of page you'd see when a web address doesn't exist (dns search).

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious. Both computers are on the same network. What am I missing?

Thanks!

Hi ianmgull,

welcome to RuneAudio.

Please try http://runeaudio.local on your MAC.

Accessing the RuneUI

You can connect to the RuneUI in several ways:

(Windows) open the following address in your browser: http://runeaudio or http://runeaudio. (works if an Avahi/Bonjour client is installed) (OSX / Linux / Android) open the following address in your browser: http://runeaudio.local
If you cannot connect using the abovementioned addresses, look up the IP address of your device (check your routers DHCP list) and point your browser to it (e.g. http://192.168.1.xxx)
(Windows) you should find a new icon under My Network Places, called RuneAudio: double click it to open you the RuneUI in your default browser, or place a shortcut to the RuneUI on your desktop, which can then be double clicked to open the RuneUI.
