    I can get to "about" but I cannot get to "settings".
    What does 'About' say in terms of software versions, for the controller and for the players? And what's the operating system on your computer?

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    It's long but "about" says:

    I'm going to make a guess that I need to update my bridge software?

    No. The BRIDGE is up to date. What version is the controller? To be honest, I imagine your problem is in fact that your operating system is no longer fully supported. See here.

    Oh, man...I feel super-dumb. What is the "controller"? The app?

    Okay...I am updating my OS. I hope that helps. Thanks!

    Yes, the Sonos controller app. The version is listed at the top of the About My Sonos System pane.

    I have recently updated to Sonos version 7.4 and I just went to update my music library from my iTunes library. When I go into Manage, all the options are no-longer highlighted so that I can no-longer update my music library.
    I can play music in all rooms, so there doesnt appear to be a problem with playing music.
    I am running Sonos on a Mac (OS X 10.9.5) and picking the music up from a folder on my Netgear NAS Server.

    As per the release notes, Mac OS 10.9 is only partially supported, resulting in the lass of some settings menus. For full support, you need 10.10 or later.
