Cannot log in to Roon. At all

Okay, well that’s the same as what I have up in the menu bar, but if I quit it, it’s gone. There’s no “restart” option & launching the Roon app, now that they’ve been separated, just launches the app, which then sits there looking for a server.

So basically, if I use that “quit” option, the only way I know to get Roon server to launch is to restart the machine. (Which effectively invokes that “launch at startup” option.)

Here is my Mac Mini…

You can turn off the launch at start option. It will stay off unless you turn it back on.

Okay, maybe we’re talking at cross purposes here.

That thing at the bottom is just for the app.

The Roon icon in the menu bar is for the server.

You can quit the app & relaunch it, but you can’t quit the server & relaunch it. As far as I know.

Except I just saw a post with two shortcut icons, which seems to have gone. But I don’t have that. I don’t have a server icon which would allow me to quit & relaunch the server. Can I get one?

(Yes, I get that I can switch off the “launch at startup” option but I don’t want to do that because as far as I know, that’s currently the only way for me to launch the Roon server.)

NO. Click on options and choose or don’t choose launch at start.

I have it checked to “launch at startup”. If I didn’t, how would I EVER launch the server? :laughing:

On the Mac, go to Finder > Applications and find the Roon launcher. Right-click it and click Show Contents (or similar) in the context menu. It will show the package contents and there is a Roon Server launcher in there.

I suppose it might make sense to make it easier accessible
