Running calibre on a Mac.
I am trying to access the calibre content server from my iPad. I start the content server and I can access the server from a browser on the Mac at 127.0.0.1:8080.
However, I cannot access the server from an external device because when I look at the content server address, it shows as 127.0.0.1. Here is what I see in the Connect/Share button:
`Stop Content Server [127.0.0.1, port 8080, HTTP]`
