QuteControl
Posted by: Ropehawn on 09 July 2016
Is there any way to get this app?
I cant find it anywhere or is there something else that can be used to control a UnitiQute2 from a Mac?

You can't control it from a Mac Desktop or Macbook unfortunately. You control the Uniti series from an iPad, iPhone or iTouch using the Naim App. Go to the Apple App store and download it to your device and off you go... here is the link to it.
Or you can use an Android device.
It seems that Qutecontrol has been withdrawn from the Mac App Store. It hadn't been updated for years, so maybe not that surprising really. The developer, Solesignal, still seems to be around, and has a website and Twitter feed, so I guess you could get in touch and ask?
Kinsky will absolutely let you control a Qute from a Mac. It's not "full" control, but it will let you pick music and control the volume. Download and install Kinsky for OS X. (From Linn)

Thanks for the reminder Bart I had totally forgotten about Kinsky and Linn.
I've got QuteControl installed on my MacBook but it says it is corrupt and suggests reinstalling from the App Store... as you say it has now disappeared. Apple charge developers $99 a year to be able to put / keep items on the app store - it is possible the developer has let this lapse. It's not thousands but is hard to cover the cost if the app sells for £3 and Apple take their cut.
Would be nice if the developer made it free (assuming it still works on current versions of the OS).
My experience with Kinsky was not good - It couldn't find a room to control (as Linn stuff conforms to OpenHome). I think BubbleUPnP Server can make vanilla DLNA look like OpenHome.
Beeka.
Kinsky was a little wobbly at first, but it finds both of my Naim players, reliably.
