    I have used Sonos for years in my house and love the system so I got two Play3 speakers for my mom. I am trying to set them up but I cant find a controller app that is compatible with her ios system. It is a MacBook pro, about 4 years old, but the system setting say that she has the most recent update available. Is there something I am not doing to make her computer compatible?

    The Max controller requires OS 10.7 or higher so you should be fine.

    Unfortunately I know nothing about Mac so cannot help further with that. It may be you would be best served giving Sonos a call and one of their techs can remote control your Computer and hopefully sort you out.

    And the link Max P posted works just fine!
