[Android App] Can't get Calibre Companion to connect

I recently bought Calibre Companion to try and sync books from my Calibre library on my MacBook Pro to my new Nexus 7.

I followed the instructions and the troubleshooting tips, but nothing I do works. Both devices are on the same network, the wireless device connection is enabled in calibre, the IP is entered correctly, and no matter what I try, Calibre Companion says "Failed to connect". I have a simple setup, with no fancy firewalls or anything, and I am fairly tech savvy, but I can not for the life of me figure out why this won't work.

Also, whoever is responsible for creating this app should think about including some sort of setup instructions, a readme file, or some kind of documentation to go along with the app. It can be quite confusing for new users, and there are no instructions to be found from the app or the Google Play page. (At least there were none I could easily find.)

Please advise. Thank you.
