I upgraded my OS from OS X 10.3.9 to 10.4.10 and reinstalled Slimserver
with the latest version (before I had 6.4) and the latest version of
Softsqueeze too. I decided to try Squeezebox first to see if all was OK
and then try using my SB3 but Softsqueeze player shows the message:
"Connection faile
It would not surprise me if the IP address of the computer has changed,
and SoftSqueeze is not picking it up.
Also, I think I once ran into an issue where SS was trying to connect
to the computer by name and for some reason used an abbreviation of the
full name and so could not find it.
Check bo
I did notice that the computer name appears abbreviated. Will try
changing the computer name in the SS settings.

I changed my computer name in the Sharing folder of Preferences in the
computer and did the same in the Networking Preference in the SS. But
it still can't connect to Slimserver. What else can I do?

OR do I have to uninstall Slimserver and start it all over again?

Assuming SoftSqueeze is on the same computer as SlimServer, just set the
computer name in SoftSqueeze to
localhost
That should work.
You should also double-check that the entries are the same (localhost
or computer name) in the Networking and Basic tabs of SoftSsqueeze
preferences.
