Mac Install falling at first hurdle

[JesterPilgrim]

Hi everyone.

I'd love to get this software set up... but I'm falling at the first hurdle.

1. I installed from subsonic-4.9.pkg. When I run Subsonic from my Applications folder, I get the headphones icon in my taskbar. "Subsonic Control Panel" does nothing, and "Open Subsonic Control Panel" opens a webpage which tells me it's unable to connect to localhost:4040
2. As recommended in the install guide, I ran the program from the command line, and got the same.
3. I checked in my Application Support folders (both in HD/Library and ~/Library) and there are no Subsonic folders in either.

Can anyone give me a clue?

Computer details:
Macbook Pro Retina, mid 2012
OS X 10.9.3
2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
251GB Flash Storage

update: just installed 5.0.beta1 - no such problems any more. On my way to Subsonic bliss....
