why does the sonos app no work on macos? I’ve tried downloading it from the sonos website and all it keeps saying in the sonos app from the sonos website is that sonos needs to get the latest software?

says:

We need to get Sonos running on the latest software.

    Nah, re-installed, still doesn’t work.

    I would perhaps speak to Sonos support. Here’s the link to contact ‘em..

    Hope you manage to get it sorted.👍

    so that everyone knows, this is a garbage answer and not something I’ve marked as “best”

    But I am curious as to what Sonos Support told you, since apparently this community isn’t able to help?

    The weird thing is, I’m running the S2 app on my Mac, and not having any issues. But I’m using the latest MacOS, 15.1.1.

    I couldn’t load the Sonos app in Mac OS Sequoia but reading some of the res[ponses above went into the Privacy settings and worked my way down the list. Anywhere Sonos is listed I’ve switched the setting to “on” and it now works fine.

      Yes I had a similar problem immediately upon installing macOS 15.0 Sequoia. App was not able to locate my Sonos system  Two long conversations with Sonos support not helpful. I finally found the problem.  

       

      System Settings → Privacy & Security → Local Network

       

      Switch Sonos to “on” position

       

      It worked for me. Did it solve problems for others? 

       

      I hope Sonos support persons will make not of this to help others stranded by Sequoia

       

      Thanks for this tip. Sonos was already “on” for me, but I toggled it off and then back on and then the Mac Sonos App was able to connect for me. 

      Same for me
