It has been 8 months now and I still can’t connect my iOS devices to my QNAP music Library or rather it can’t find music.

SONOS suggests this path -  \\SERVER-NAME\Multimedia\iTunes\iTunes Media but it just spins and then never connects.

How can you break the connection to your physical equipment so badly that barely anyone can get to their music from iOS?

I had this working for 3 plus years on the old app. The new app is supposed to bring about great changes, but then turns out to be *****. Perhaps SONOS is just getting paid money by these streaming companies to make your local library unusable! I really think that is a possibility at this point. SONOS just seems to close down any topic they don’t like as well. I’m so glad I spent thousands of dollars on a system that only streams music, what a joke.

Sonos has had to stop supporting the SMBv1 on S2. Could this be your problem?

I checked that by going through the steps in a another post; linked below. I was disappointed again, I really thought the below link would have the fix as it was for my particular NAS, but still didn’t work. Unless I actually have to just point to a folder named “music”, which would defeat the purpose of having my iTunes folder on the NAS. I will give that a try at some point.

Did SONOS just hire a bunch of people from cheap in some land outside of the USA? Perhaps SONOS is just getting paid money by these streaming companies to make your local library unusable!

Try the path with forward slashes instead: //SERVER-NAME/Multimedia/iTunes/iTunes Media.

 

I have now tried the forward slashes this time: //SERVER-NAME/Multimedia/iTunes/iTunes Media.

Still not picking up the library. Which is strange since that works on the Sonos Application for PC.

So, it doesn’t seem like it would be a permissions issue on the NAS. I will continue to trouble shoot.

I appreciate the brainstorming and ideas.
