10.7.1 and LogMeIn

[Poob Bubes]

I use LogMeIn to connect to my iMac from work. Since upgrading to 10.7.1 I cannot get connected. Does anyone else have this issue?

Did you try reinstalling the client portion of logmein?

Did you try reinstalling the client portion of logmein?

Not yet. I actually just noticed the issue today when trying to connect so I haven't been home yet. I will give that a try tonight.

My guess is the update wiped out the hooks/client stuff that logmein requires and a simple install will resolve the issue.

I'm having the same issue. I think a reinstall will do it, too, so will try that and report back.

Well I reinstalled the client but the problem still remains. The strange thing is that I can still connect via LogMeIn Ingnition for iPad, but it will not connect when using a browser. It fails on the "Verify Identity" stage with the following details:

Authenticating...

Connection refused.
Host is temporarily offline.

Can you connect to the host Mac using regular screen sharing, the freebie built into OS X?

Lion changed its VNC implementation a bit; I've found you have to enter both the username of the account you're logging in to, and the password. I don't use Logmein, but perhaps you could just try your mac's screen sharing to see if that works.
