Music Library addition

Is there not another folder inside the ‘iTunes Media’ folder called ‘Music’ that you need to select instead?
… and use the same credentials that you use to log onto the MB Pro (if required).

Perhaps see if this works for you…
- Open System Preferences on your Mac.
- Click on Security > Privacy.
- Under the Privacy tab, click on Full Disk Access.
- Check the box next to Sonos Library Server.
- Open the Sonos app.
- Update your music library by going to Manage > Update Music Library Now.
Navigate back to Music Library menu under the Select a Music Source section, and (hopefully) you will now be able to browse your library.
I’d also be tempted to remove the hyphen from the name of the Mac.

+5That doesn't work.
First, there is no System Preferences.
I tried System Settings and found Security, Privacy, Full Disk Access
I see the Sonos App but cannot find Sonos Library Server
I clicked to Sonos app to have access then proceed with the attempt to setup music folder with no luck
I am getting a bit frustrated with Sonos App

Did you follow these instructions below:
https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/add-your-music-library-to-sonos
Is the library on an internal or external drive? If it’s external, then also see this link:

+5It is on my Mb Pro late 2017 model. Here us where Apple Music folder is. I copied direct off of Music
/Macintosh HD/Users/tjsage/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
When browsing for that and choosing it it never works.

+5I think I finally got it. Thank you all for the suggestions
