Thanks for your prompt reply…1/ correct.2/ I have tried to connect before to no avail. I understand that airplay isn’t supported with the player, which why I have raised the question about connecting using wi-fi.3/ I gave up with trying to connect the player to my iPhone/Mac but have justrealised that I can use the player to play Sonos Radio via the Sonos 2 app and more lately realised that the speaker is an option when playingSpotify.Just thought I’d ask why...As far as iPhone iOS is concerned, Apple only allow playback of tracks stored on the mobile device using AirPlay - so you need an AirPlay speaker to play the music too and then you can group that with your Playbar, an example would be the Sonos devices mentioned in this link:https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/stream-airplay-audio-to-sonosThe alternative is to maybe share your musicto your Sonos devices via a ‘shared’ music library held on your Mac and for further details on how to do that see this link:https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/add-your-music-library-to-sonos

HiThree questions….You have never played music from your iPhone to your Playbar?Thisis the first time you’ve tried to do so and the process failed? This a new issue as youwere able to play music from your iPhone to your Playbar in the past?
