Controllers and Music services

I have several Sonos speakers & a Connect Gen 2 connected to a Bose speaker. I have the Sonos app on my iPad & iPhone & on my Mac. I am able to control all the speakers perfectly using any of these 3 devices, but does anybody know how I can get the music to also play on my Mac speakers when using the Sonos Mac app? Is this possible at all?  Many thanks, Ross

How do I edit ‘My Top Tracks’ under Deezer?   Somehow there are a bunch of tracks in their that I don’t like, but I can’t see any way to get rid of them.The tracks showing in the Deezer site as ‘Favourite Tracks’ appear in Sonos, under the Deezer service as ‘Favourite Tracks’ (all good there)However, in Sonos under Deezer -> My Music -> My Top Tracks I have a different list of tracks that I want to edit.  I can’t see any matching list in Deezer (using the website).  My Top Tracks isn’t a regular Sonos playlist that I can edit.  Any ideas where this list is coming from?The real problem is that Deeer is putting these tracks into my Flow...  

Hello. Artist page STILL doesn’t exist on spotify accounts through the controller.  I found this old thread started from over 2 year ago and the issue is still not fixed. I previously had deezer and there it existed and I’m sure it does for other services too so what is the problem here Sonos!!??https://en.community.sonos.com/music-services-and-sources-228994/spotify-problem-can-t-see-artists-or-stations-in-sonos-controller-6795221/index2.html

Is every station you listen to on Sonos HD radio streamed in HD or just a few stations?

With an update today (now version 12.2 - build 61182310) the Mac desktop app has lost a lot of shortcuts that used to be present if you right clicked the Dock icon - like Mute/Play/Stop. They were really useful to not have to find the app itself when you needed a quick action. Are they missing because of a bug or a deliberate choice to reduce functionality?

My Sonos system worked perfectly with Google Play but I have recently had to transfer to You Tube Music. My library appears for albums & artists but the Songs section just gives an error message and is empty. I want to be able to shuffle my library but can’t without Songs 

I just went through a laborious several hours of setting up a separate S1 system of 3 legacy Play: 5 (gen 1) and 1 Connect.  I had to set all 4 devices to factory since I couldn’t upgrade S1 to get the Removal tool.  The I set up the new S1 network under my wife’s email since it wouldn’t allow me to use my existing email which was in use with S2.  Everytime I open the S2 Controller app it tries to link to the S1 devices and asks me to remove these in order to use S2.  How do I get S2 controller to link to a system that is under a different email account

Just started investigating playlists.. using Android… don't seem to be able to create a playlist from music on my device, also don't seem to be able to create a playlist. Using the s2 app. Any pointers gratefully received...

I’m a Newbie. I save radio streaming stations, such as BBC Radio 3 to My Sonos. But where are the ones I have saved? Where is My Sonos? (Sonos 5)

Hi there! I have just simple question , I’ve hired Amazon HD and i live in Spain, is it possible to listen with ultra HD quality through SONOS app? thanks! 

Heywhy dont people join this discussion and support a request / insist Sonos create a backup option for ANDROID for sonos saves of playlists and songs etc. VOTE 1 here.No negative campers please. It could, in the simplest form be a text dump to email file or something. then things could be recreated manually at least by users.  The commands are there in API’s but Im not a SOAP or Android programmer. “get playlist etc” would be one command and dump these to a txt file…..

Ok so I get the idea of using SonosNet to create a better/Mesh network just for Sonos, and of course this helps with speakers that are further apart being both visible and controllable - however is there any way that the app itself can connect to the speakers via SonosNet?  I am guess the answer is no, but we can all live in hope, I have a home office and at least one bedroom that is out of range if the main wifi router, I understand that if this not possible then I am likely best running off/creating a mesh home network instead. 

MacOS Sonos S1 client really dragging down resources. I am seeing it ~1.2GB RAM while under Windows 10 only using 75MB. Anyone else struggling wth performance issues on MacOS?   

So I thought I understood how to take an S2-updated device back to S1, but it is not working for me.I am in my vacation home which has a Symfonisk setup on S1 and works fine.I brought a Sonos One with me, which had been upgraded to S2 at home. I factory reset it, then attempted to Add it to my Symfonisk system here, but the S1 app refuses. I get this screen:I have done this before, has something changed now and it is no longer possible to go-back, even when you have a working S1 system? (And I am well aware that the One is both S1 and S2 compatible).I really don’t want to move my vacation system to S2.

Hi,Is there any way I can get the same choice of music via Apple Music through Sonos as what I can via the Apple app on my phone ?I'm not sure if Ive explained that well enough but I have a lot more music ie: playlists, best of, Acoustic greats, mood music etc to choose from with the app but i can only Bluetooth the app to a car or portable Bluetooth speaker etc. Any way can get the same choice of apple music through sonos ?  

Does anyone know what update 12.2.1 added or fixed? I just got it a few hours ago.

I asked Alexa on my Arc to play music from The Beatles, yet, I can’t find the Apple Music playlist that it’s playing on the Apple Music library. Alexa said it would play “The Beatles: Essentials” which has ~30 songs and I’m listening to many more songs (very good) and songs that are not included in any of Apple’s playlists. Could someone help me? I want to add that playlist I’m listening to, but it’s not even allowing me to

OK.  Is what I’m about to say ideal?  Nah.  Not at all, but it works.  If you listen to Pandora thru Sonos and want to access the ever-important “I’m tired of this track” feature, try this….When you hear that track, hop on your cell and open the Pandora app and it will display the song playing thru Sonos.  On the cell, you can use that feature.  Seem like a pain in the arse, yes, but that feature is what helps your playlists grow so it’s huge if you listen to Pandora often.  Anyway, otherwise you’re gonna hear the same 50 songs over and over and over and over…..

Does anyone from SONOS monitor this Board?   I just switched from Spotify to Apple Music (via Apple One) and was pretty happy until I realized that Apple Music App cannot control Sonos directly as the Spotify App can.  And to make it worse, the Sonos App does not show all of the new features of Apple Music when I add Apple as a Service.Is this something SONOS or APPLE needs to work on for the millions of customers.   If this will not be improved I will likely switch back to Spotify. Thank you. Larry

windows did a massive update yesterdaynow when i launch the desktop controller is opens and then crasheswindows 10 application event log showsApplication: Sonos.exeFramework Version: v4.0.30319Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.Exception Info: System.ArithmeticExceptionException Info: System.OverflowException   at System.Windows.Media.Imaging.ColorConvertedBitmap.FinalizeCreation()   at System.Windows.Media.Imaging.ColorConvertedBitmap..ctor(BitmapSource source, ColorContext sourceColorContext, ColorContext destinationColorContext, PixelFormat format)   at System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage.FinalizeCreation()   at System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage.EndInit()   at Sonos.Controller.Desktop.SCLib.ViewModel.Artwork.ArtworkDataEventSink.GenerateEventArgs(SCIArtworkData sender)   at Sonos.Controller.Desktop.SCLib.EventWrapper`2.OnEvent(TSender sender)   at

In the Sonos Radio music service I can search for a radio station, but when I go to add the station to an alarm I can’t seem to find the station. For instance, I do a search in Sonos Radio for “spa” and come up with a number of stations.  Let’s say I now want to add “Radio Art - Spa” (for example) to an alarm.  How can I find that station in the Alarm settings except to scroll through hundreds of stations in the “Specialty” channel (browse → Music → Specialty), which is where I *think* it might be (a guess). Adding the found station to “Sonos Favourites” puts it in the favourites, but that doesn’t help, as Sonos Favorites is not an option in Alarms either. How can I find where the station is located so I can add it easily to my Alarm?

Is this doable at all? So far, the Sonos app does not appear to have this feature, and even using the google assistant ‘hey google, like this song’ results in ‘Sorry, I don’t understand that’.  For a company priding itself on bringing the music to you, this seems like a huge oversight, especially since YTM has no other way to like a song when it is playing on another device, that I know of. Any help is appreciated here. I want to use youtube music more and have the ability to like the songs / dislike so it can then give me more personalized results. And I love the sonos sound.

Why oh why can’t you play music from iMatch ….   :-( 

Up until i updated the S2 app to 12.2.1 I would see the Sonos audio controls in the pull-down notification curatain as well as on my lock screen. Now it’s not visible in either. I noticed upon going into the Notifications menu that the Sonos app isn’t even listed. I’m running iOS 14.2 on an iPhone 12 Pro. Music controls work well within the app itself. I even uninstalled and reinstalled it but no joy. Anyone else experience this? I just went through something similar with my OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren and that was never resolved. I hope that’s not the case here because I’m just starting to get used to iOS again.

As the title suggests - I appreciate the playbar/base can’t ever be lossless with the toslink connector but when are we going to be able to feed lossless sound to our amplifiers and beams?
