I can only use the Bloomberg Everywhere version (web version) given my work laptop is a mac. blpConnect() failed when connecting to BBG. This is error msg below. Could you shed some light on this? Thank you! 58665:8652736000 ERROR blpapi_serviceregistrationoptionsimpl.cpp:133 blpapi.ServiceRegistrationOptionsImplUtil Failed to resolve hostname:XXXXXX

I do not think our documentation implies the package would magically connect to a web version of Bloomberg Everywhere.
