Launchpad won't work

Running 8.0.4. Bought the Launchpad this afternoon and installed the drivers. Under preferences/midi control surfaces/ Launchpad does not appear. Launchpad DOES appear in the MIDI port section. I've tried different USB cables. No luck. Am I missing something? I went to Novations support site and watched the installation video to make sure I was doing things in the right order. Maybe I have a dead device?

IIRC Live 8.08 was the first build with native LP support. Anyone know for sure?

Just try updating and see how it goes.

My Launchpad shipped with 8.06, perhaps you need this at least?

Yep, just needed an update. LP is alive now.

Mine works with the 7.0.18 update for those still using 7
