In the last few weeks the Fast forward / Rewind bar has dissapeared from both my iphone Sonos app and Mac app.  This is when playing music from my NAS drive.  It was working absolutlely fine up to a few weeks ago and now with the same tracks it doesn’t show.  Any ideas?

Hi @GuyBunce, welcome to the Sonos community. Thank you for reaching out to us and letting us know about your concern. It’s odd that buttons disappeared on the Sonos app. Let me help you with this.

First, I’d like to ask a few questions to isolate the issue and to provide you the troubleshooting steps to resolve this.

  1.  Did you check for any updates on the Sonos app?
    • On iOS or Android > From the Settings tab, tap System > System Updates > Check for Updates.
  2. Did you try to reset the Sonos app on both of your devices? Did it fix the issue?
    • In the Sonos app, go to Settings > App Preferences > Reset app > follow the steps on the app
    • Open the Sonos app and connect to your existing system
  3. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Sonos app?
  4. Have you tried rebooting reboot your network devices, all your Sonos products, and force close mobile controllers to refresh the connection?

Please submit a diagnostic report from your Sonos system for us to check what might be causing this issue and include the confirmation number in your response. Let us know if you have any questions. We’ll wait for your reply.


Hi Rowena, 

 

Thanks for your reply.  I have checked for updates, reset both the app on my phone and the app on my Mac.  I have tried reinsalling the Sonos app on my phone.  I haven’t tried Number 4.  Further investigations show that the bar is only missing on certain tracks.  Whilst they still play, I am unable to navigate through them.  I have submitted a diagnostic report as requested.

 

Thanks,

 

Guy
