I have successfully updated to S2 version 12.0.1 by my iPhone. The problem is that i can't update the app on my MAC. When I start the app I get the information that I must update to S2 but when I push the update button nothing happen. I then found out that I am running 11.1 on the MAC and tried to upgrade to 11.2 first. But that does not work either. It downloads the upgrade but during “update the controller” I get an error “unexpected failure”  How could I solve this? And another secondary question, I got the answer from the Swedish support contact that I could start a live chat with SONOS support, but I can't find how I start that?

New Mac, with my user account on an external SSD. My husband has the same setup on his Mac, and does not have this problem playing from his library.Music will be playing, then stop. When I try to play the next song, there is a long pause, then a long string of “unable to play”. Sometimes this happens when I first start a playlist. Deleting and reloading the music library usually helps. Rebooting my Mac also  fixes it - sometimes. This is happening at least every other day. Help?

Hi there.  I have 2 Play 5’s set as a hi fi pair with a sub. Just recently one of the 5’s will no longer connect to wifi.

I recently renovated a building for my retail store and installed 3 sets of Sonance in-ceiling speakers. The contractor also installed a set of Polk Audio outdor speakers outside. I have 3 Sonos Amps and was planning to use one of them for the outside speakers, one for 1 set of in-ceiling speakers and the third for the other two sets of in-ceiling speakers. Unfortunately without my knowledge the electrician wired the outside speakers in series, i.e. He ran a speaker cable from where the Sonos Amp is to the first outside speaker and then connected the second outside speaker to the first instead of running a separate speaker cable back to the Sonos Amp. My question is whether I can deal with this without putting too much of a load on the Amp. I guess I could just connect the one cable to only the left or right channel terminals, but I was wondering if there was a way to use the full power of the amp by, for example, connectig the negative lead of the cable to the negative terminal of the

Today, I noticed that most of my pocket casts won't play strangely Sirius, soundcloud, mixcloud and library all work with no issues.  I have about 12 podcasts, several sources and half of them throw the error 701. I did, today, get my outside DSL line replaced, but again it works fine for all my other services.  Pocket Casts works fine from the app also.  I also reinstalled the sonos app and deleted and re-added the service no change Diagnostic:. 1510266545

Just had a few hiccups with my Sonus system, possibly caused by updates to our BT whole house Wi-Fi system. I rang Sonus and had the pleasure of talking with Andreea T.   their technical assistant who with great patience walked me through the problem and got my system up and Running.A big thank you Andreea T.  for you help and thank you Sonus for a great system. Colin.

Hello, I have 3 of the newer Amps purchased last year and using the latest S2 app on my Apple 10 iphone and the iOS is 14.1. Everything has been fine up until the last few S2 App / iOS updates.   Some how my Sonos system will start playing music where I last turned it off randomly without any involvement from me and my phone is laying on the desk.  Sometimes it’s 2 in morning and I haven’t had the system “on” for several days. This occurs with both Spotify and Pandora so I don’t believe the streaming services are causing it.Any suggestions?  Thanks! David  

Every time my alarm is scheduled to play a Sonos station it plays a chime instead. If I push the play button to pause the chime and then push it again the radio starts almost instantly. It's a Sonos one Just submitted a diagnostic report but I don't really know what that does and it was 8 minutes after the alarm was due to go off do not sure what value it hasThanks

I started my Sonos radio HD trial today and found out that when I switched to port from beam, it won’t allow me to skip/rewind songs.

Hi, I’ve been enjoying surround sound for over a year, but suddenly stopped working a few months ago.  My Setup (Living Room):Playbar Connect:Amp (LS+RS) Sub All devices wired through a switch that is connected to the router. Full Audio on Music in surround settings. I’ve gone to Settings > System > Living Room (Playbar) and removed the surrounds and they become a separate “Living Room” group, which now works fine and I can group them or play individually. I’ve unplugged (all four) Connect:Amp’s and the Playbar and plugged them back in after 60 seconds and restarted the Sonos S2 app. I get a banner in the app to add surrounds with Connect:Amp and click it and it sets up as expected, but no sound.  Diagnostic code (before surround setup): 551892727Diagnostic code (after surround setup, playing radio): 1402672324 Hope somebody can help get my surrounds back again.

Hi, since the last update Sonos Radio does not work for me. It says “Unable to authorize your account”. I tried removing the service and adding it again, but still getting the same issue. Any suggestions? Thanks Sonos OS: S2Version: 12.2 (build 61182310)

Hi,I’m using Sonos S2 app on Android.One day, the files where sorted correctly and the next day out of knowhere the app is sorting the files in the wrong order.Let me explain. Let’s say I want to listen to an album of 12 song. Now, instead of sorting the songs in numerical order (1 to 12), it is sorting the songs this way : 1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.So if I want to listen to an album in the right order, I have to edit the playlist each time. It’s kind of annoying. On the sonos software on my computer the files are sorted correctly. I don’t know why the app on Android do that now.Anybody with the same issue ? Any way to solve this ?If you have a solution for me, I thank you :)

Hi, I’ve just upgraded to a newer BT router, after a few hours of messing I’ve finally got everything working again by setting each speaker back up individually. My system is on Wi-Fi but I connected a cable to get it all working again with the help of Sonos assistance. The cable is now disconnected and everything is set up but the app keeps losing signal and saying unable to connect about 50% of the time? It was definitely better before than now? I was hoping a 2 year newer/better router would have been ok? Any suggestions are welcome. thanks.  

When we start music or change the play list the speakers are cutting out then randomly come back (after about 30 seconds), one at a time. this just started after working correctly for years (and we did not change anything before it started happening) 

I have been trying to update my sonos one to version 12.2 without any luck.  I have tried all the recommended fixes,•Moving closer to the router •Plugging in the speaker to the router •Factory reset on the speaker and then trying again.All of these haven’t fixed my issue with the update and I still get the Error 30 when I try to update the speaker. As I live in Belgium there is no customer care contact that I can get in touch with to help. All my other speakers have updated no issue and all are running on the S2 app If you have any idea on how to fix it I’d love to hear them, thanks Ben

Upgraded to S2 software now my audio from my TV skips really badly when I have more than one speaker playing the tv audio stream. It works fine when it's only the TV room speaker setup. Used to work perfect on the original software. Adjusting the group audio delay does nothing. Diagnostic 70307141

I’m trying to get into the app but it takes me to an update. Problem is that the email address it is asking me for a password for is not my email. I’ve deleted the app. Rebooted the app. All no good. I can sign in using my correct email and password but this update screen has the wrong email so it’s saying my password is incorrect. Screen shot is below. Any thoughts appreciated. Cheers.   

I have upgraded from a ZP90 to the new Amp. Initial problems it would not connect to the wifi even though it was in the same place as the ZP90.After many hours trouble shooting with Sonos they told me to hard wire at my expense.So I hard-wired in, worked great for a few weeks, last Friday it was on all day….Saturday it has disappeared from system. It now will not connect and when I try a new connect it can see the Amp, asks me to press the figure of 8 button then the light goes ‘orange’. Which i read as the light of death.So as Sonos are ignoring me anyone else got any ideas?

Hi all, I just got a Sonos Port, and was hoping to be able to stream to it from my PC via Airplay.  After some Googling, I installed a program called AirParrot3, but when I try to use it to connect my PC to my Port, AirParrot asks for a password.  I tried using my Network password and my  Sonos password, but neither worked. Others who’ve had this problem received advice in these forums to disable a setting on their iOS device (I have an iPhone 6SPlus).  However, I can’t implement this advice because the iPhone settings it refers to appear to have changed since then and I can’t locate them. (For  reference, the Forum advice I’m referring to is here https://en.community.sonos.com/music-services-and-sources-228994/airplay-password-prompt-6813139 and here https://en.community.sonos.com/troubleshooting-228999/airplay-feature-asks-for-onscreen-code-6809361 .) If someone could help me get this working, I’d sure appreciate it!  Thanks.

Hi all, amazon prime music not playing on Sonos zp100. Amazon music shows up as an option BUT when I press play, I get the pop up ‘get unlimited’ and no music starts.  I don’t want unlimited just my Prime Music. Please help. What am I doing wrong?

Hi all,Recently updated to S2 as the S1 app would crash each time I searched for radio (thinking was intentional...).On S1 my Sonos Play:1 and Sonos SL were all working just fine.  With the upgrade to S2 the SL speakers keep coming and going from the app(s). However, as of so far today, the SL speakers are showing on the Android S2 app.  The S2 app on my Windows 7 desktop though…  No SL speakers show up.  I’ve tried restarting the app, resetting the controller, verifying the firewall, and cycling the router all to no avail.Any ideas? 

I have 5 zp100 units set up in my house and for some reason 2 of the rooms continually drop out. I have verizon fios that connects to google mesh. The sonos amps are hard wired into one of the google mesh nodes so they don’t (hopefully) do anything wirelessly. I just tried setting up the mesh so that each of the zp100 units has a dedicated ip address, so hopefully that helps with the dropping out problem.  However, now one of the units just flashes white and I can’t get it to show up in sonos. Googlemesh says it is connected to the network at the ip address I selected. I did run a diagnostic report and it is 2129878038. Would appreciate any help!

I have a flashing red battery light on my Move even though it stil has about 65% of the battery remaining - any ideas what the problem is?

Hi all. Hope everyone is swell.I have a few SONOS 1s, a Beam, and one of those IKEA speakers all happily working together.Over the summer I updated my wireless router from an old single band one to one of these new fangled (for me) routers with the multiple bands. I bought the seemingly popular TP-Link AC4000 Smart WiFi Router (Archer A20). Here’s the situation.My iPad and laptop both have never had issues with connecting to the SONOS system. They work great.My iphone, on the other hand, constantly loses it.All apps and OS are up to date. It’s not a distance from the router issue as they’ve all been tested mere feet from the router. I was just browsing SONOS on my iPad and had phone next to it and the phone can’t find the SONOS devices.This may be more of a question for the TP-LINK folks, but I wanted to try here first just in case. You’ll see in the screenshots that my phone is on it’s own 5Ghz channel. I suspect that is the issue but not sure why or how the router’s ‘smart connect’ s
