J’ai installé l’application biab sur mon iPad. On me demande un IP pour me connecter. J’en ai entrer plusieurs (mon iMac, mon serveur wifi), rien ne passe. Cette appli fonctionne t’elle toujours ? Si oui comment procéder ?
Bonjour Gilles, Oui, çà devrait marcher ..... Band-in-a-Box pour iPhone (BB iPhone) est une application pour appareils iOS y compris iPhone®, iPad™, and iPod Touch®. La versionBB iPhone est destinée à inter fonctionner avec la version bureau de Band-in-a-Box. L’application BBiPhone est disponible séparement sur Apple® App Store: http://www.apple.com/iphone/apps-for-iphone/. La version iPhone de Band-in-aBox est logée dans le dossier “BB2Go” (C:\bb\BB2Go). Tout Morceau Band-in-a-Box mis dans ce dossier est visible sur BB iPhone. Vous pouvez envoyer/recevoir des fichiers vers/de l’iPhone BB/Band-in-a-Box pour Windows®; ces fichiers seront hébgergés dans le dossier BB2Go. Je n'ai pas fait cette manip, j'aurai donc du mal à te donner plus de "billes". Donne moi + d'infos ... Daniel
Merci pour ces infos. Première chose, je suis sur Mac OS. C’est niveau de la connexion de l’IP avec mon MacBook que ça coince. Il apparaît bien sûr l’appli mais ne se connecte pas. Vu les appréciations de cette appli sur le store, je ne suis pas le seul à avoir le problème La dernière maj a plus de 2 ans, peut être que ça ne fonctionne, dommage. La semaine prochaine je contacterai PG par chat. Si on trouve la soluition, je ne manquerai pas de le partager.
Gilles, Effectivement (j'ai jeté un oeil sur le forum US) il semblerait qu'il y ait un souçi ..... OK, informe toi et tiens la communauté informée. Bon déconfinement, Daniel
Un souci ? non, le manque d'explications claires et simples .. Ca marche très bien
Faut que l'ordi et l'iPad soient connectés Wifi sur le même réseau Wifi, c'est fondamental .. ca peut marcher par connection cable Ethernet mais c; est plus compliqué et avoir un fil qui pendouille d'une boite qui elle même pendouille de la prise USB-C de l'iPad (c'est comme ça sur le mien qui est récent)..... bof
Autre chose (non expliquée dans la doc PGmusic): faut que la configuration du routeur permette à l'ordi ou tourne le serveur BIAB d'être vu par un autre (dans notre cas l'iPad)connecté au meme réseau. Comment faire dépend du routeur (ou de la box), ca malheureuxsemtn je ne peux pas dire comment faire sur tous les engins possibles. Sur mon modem-routeur Netgear D700, il y a une option dans le paramétrage des 4 réseaux wifi possibles. C'est ça le point le plus délicat, mon iPad ne se connectait pas tant que je n'avais pas mis ça en place !!
Faut ensuite sur l'ordi lancer le serveur BIAB qui se trouve sur l'ordi, dans le cas de mon PC/Windows10 dans C:/bb/BIAB/BBhelper et qui s'appelle Bandinaboxserver.exe
Suffit de cliquer sur ce programme pour le lancer.
Ensuite lancer l'appli iPad qui s'appelle Band-in-a-Box !! elle trouve le serveur s'il est actif, et a déja été nconnecté ... sinon toucher File->Server , un menu s'ouvre .. en haut apparait l'adresse IP du PC serveur (si l'iPad l'a trouvé) sinon appuyer sur connect, en principe un menu s'affiche avec la liste des serveurs BIAB trouvé, suffi de cliquer sur celui qui apparait (en principe il est seul !!)
J'espère que ça vous aidera. Bon courage. Ca vaut vraiment le coup de faire ça.
Je reconnais avoir la chance de m'y connaitre un peu en ordi et réseau et de pouvoir lire en anglais les forums et manuels Band-in-a-Box.
Par contre sur Mac où se trouve, si il existe, ce fameux fichier bandinaboxserver ou son équivalent ? J’ai tout fouillé et bien sûr utilisé l’outil de recherche, en vain.
Je trouve quand même dommage qu’en 2020 pg n’utilise pas le Bluetooth pour établir cette connection.
Le fichier bandinaboxserver se trouve dans le dossier c\bb\BBhelper. Par ailleurs ton problème de BlueTooth n'est pas lié à BIAB. Cette connection n'a rien à voir avec une appli. Voilà, Daniel

Merci Daniel
Sur Mac pas de dossier BBhelper dans le dossier Band-in-a-Box
Mon Bluetooth fonctionne très bien. Je voulais dire qu’en 2020 pg pourrait peut être utiliser ce moyen de connection, ça serait bien plus simple et actuel.
Bonjour, Si le problème se pose toujours, voici une autre manière de procéder (je pense que le dossier BB2Go, c'était dans des versions précédentes). En fait tout se passe à partir de l'iPhone : dans l'app BiaB (de l'iPhone) => File => Download => cliquer sur Download from PC/Mac. Une fenêtre s'ouvre avec une adresse IP locale indiquée en dessous (genre 192.168.1.4) (il faut bien sûr être sur le même réseau wifi que le Mac). Se rendre ensuite sur le Mac et ouvrir une page du browser, et y indiquer cette adresse IP. La page BiaB s'ouvrira, avec possibilité de choisir un fichier. Quand le fichier est choisi, cliquer sur "Submit". Sur l'iPhone, le fichier apparaît dans la fenêtre. Il ne reste plus qu'à choisir le dossier où l'enregistrer, et le tour est joué (enfin presque: j'ai souvent des problèmes de sons, etc.). J'espère que ce sera utile. Chris
Apparemment on peut aussi utiliser DropBox, Google Drive, ou même envoyer le fichier par e-mail.
Cela dit, je trouve aussi que ce n'est pas top. Par exemple j'ai eu, sur l'application de mon iPhone, des problèmes de synchronisation avec des fichiers importés (le son pas au même rythme que la partition); ou encore des problèmes de son...
