iOS App is unable to access the Tonido account
This can be due to couple of reasons.
a) Ensure that Tonido server is running in your target computer. You can check that by opening a webbrowser in the computer where
Tonido is running and entering http://127.0.0.1:10001 (Assuming the port is still default) in the webbrowser address. If Tonido is running
the web browser will show the Tonido login page.
b) If Tonido server is running, ensure that your target computer can access the internet. If firewall is running your computer and is preventing
Tonido from accessing the internet, then you need to add rules to your firewall to allow Tonido to access the computer. You can check if
Tonido can access the internet by entering http://<youraccount>.tonidoid.com in a webbrowser on the same computer where Tonido is running. If
the web page opens and shows Tonido server, then Tonido is running
c) Ensure that your iOS device is connected to the network (Wifi or Cellular network) and can access the internet (Simply open safari and try to access a webpage )
