If a particular network IP/port is already being used by another application, Burp's proxy will not be able to bind to the same port. In Burp Suite Community or Burp Suite Professional, you can change the port being used by Burp's proxy listener by going to Proxy -> Options -> Proxy Listeners -> Edit I hope this helps. Please let us know if you need any further assistance.
