Can you ping the rpi?
Then You need to install the Tightvnc server onto your rpi and use a vnc viewer on your pc/ipad to gain remote access to rpi
Try to get remote access before installing Cayenne then you get all the basics working before layering software packages

Yes, if you have previously installed tightvnc, then the myDevices remote desktop will have issues. See this thread: Bug Filed on 03-28-2016: Remote access problems [Fixed: suppress existing tightvnc connection]
