Thanks for the responses. I'm on Verizon too. I'll try a delay between messages and see how that works. Thanks again, I can always count on you folks!

All of a sudden, MMS alerts from my cameras are taking 1 1/2 to 5 hours to show up on my phone. They've always come thru within seconds up until a week or so ago. Messages from my wife's phone take only seconds. Anyone having the same issue? Thanks

Thanks!

Have you had any problems after downloading and installing the old version from this site? I know it's taking a risk getting apps from a non-playstore site. TIA.

Thanks for replying. I found the link (Blue Iris 2.0.71 Apk + Mod for Android), but it gives me a "App not installed" error. I've turned off automatic updates, but a little too late I guess. Thanks.

I use the remote app. A couple of weeks ago, it was updated and displays: Update Blue Iris Please update the Blue Iris software on your PC. Certain functions may not behave properly until you do so. at startup. I am currently running BI 5.2.6.5. Is the update to 5.3.8.17 a free update? OR...

Anyone use windows 10 VPN server and client? I've opened port 1723 on my router and mapped it to my BI server - 192.168.1.22:12345. It won't connect. It asks for a user name and password. When I set up the VPN I gave permission to the user account I use when I log into the machine BI is running...

Many thanks looney2ns!!

Just getting back to this thread as life inconveniently got in the way. Where do you guys buy your cameras? Amazon carries Dahua and Hikvision, but some are listed as OEM. Some of the reviews say they're "grey market" and some are listed as having "non upgrade-able firmware". Do the actual...

Will airvpn allow me to use the BI app on my phone?

Thanks, I'll look at this one too.

Hmmm...tried ngrok. the remote computer connected fine but within a minute I got onscreen errors. When I logged out (from the remote computer) I got the second error.

This "router" is more like a mobile hotspot, VERY limited functionality, There is an option to port forward but it doesn't work. Supposedly something about the way cell towers operate. Lots of people on the forum have the same question and get no answers either. AT&T support staff are clueless...

Any way to access your BI cameras from the internet if you can't open ANY ports on your router?

Good to know. I'd like to keep my current v4 up until I get the new one in place. Looks like it's on sale now for $50. Can't beat the price, especially with a free upgrade in June. Thanks again for all your help. Now...off to buy some new cameras. Also, I'm currently using an open port to get...

Thanks. I'm updating my whole system. I've been using Foscam cameras and a couple have crapped out and I'll be buying something more reliable. I'm also going to buy the latest BI so am just going to start from scratch. I'll do a clean install of Win10. and load BI. Thanks again for your help!

OK...you lost me. I downloaded the demo version of BI with the intention of setting it up and then buying a license. Win10 and BI are both loaded on the SSD. What's the BI database? Sorry to ask so many questions.

Oh. So I need to download the ISO and create a DVD and re-install win 10 OVER win 10? I really appreciate the help here. This place is a fount of knowledge!

What do you mean by "in place upgrade"? I used the Media Creation Tool to upgrade from 7 to 10. I used 10 for a couple of days to see how well it performed then downloaded BI and installed it.

I meant I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10, and then installed BI.

This was a Win 7 to Win 10 upgrade. That might be the reason.

Hello. Over the last 5 years, I've gotten lots of good advice from the people here, so I'm going to ask another question. I'm upgrading my security cameras and hardware. I currently use BI and have found it to be an extremely powerful (and inexpensive) piece of software. I'm using Foscam cameras...

Thank you IAmATeaf. That worked!!

I just upgraded a win 7 machine to win 10. I'm running BI on a different machine (Win 8) at this time but I'm moving it to this new win 10 machine. I downloaded a copy, but when I tried to install it, I get this error: It may be a co-incidence but it locked up the machine and when I...

WOW!! Upgraded and all is good! We left on vacation for 2 weeks today. I fired up the app as we headed out the door...turned around and spent an hour trying to figure out what was going on. Finally gave up and left. Thanks again!!

Thanks. Will do. Is checking in here the only way to get notified of the patch release?

Just stopped working all of a sudden. I can log in and see the thumbnails, but when I try to look at the actual camera view, it shows a black screen, with the controls at the bottom. I'm able to use my phone's or laptop's browser to log in and that works fine. Any ideas?

Great! Thanks.

Thanks for replying fenderman. Once set up, can I register as a full copy with my license code?

I'm getting a new PC to replace the one currently running BI. What's the policy on having one copy running on two machines temporarily. Once I'm good to go on the new PC, I will remove it from the old one, but I'll most likely install it over the course of a couple of days. I'd like to keep the...
