Resetting music library permissions on a PC
Some music services may automatically change the permissions on your music folders when you add new music, so that
Sonos can no longer access your music. If your music service does this, you can change the preference setting below to allow
Sonos to reset permissions when your music index is updated. You should not set this preference unless you need to, as it
takes longer to update your music index when this box is checked.
1.
From the
File
menu, select
Preferences
.
2.
Click the
Advanced
tab.
3.
Check the
Fix Permissions when updating the music index on this computer
box, and click

Windows Sharing on a Mac
Depending upon where your music is stored, you may be asked to provide an administrator name and password to allow
access to your music folders.
If your Macintosh computer does not have
Windows Sharing
enabled, the Sonos Controller for Mac or PC will guide you
through the process of enabling it. Your music files are never copied from their current locations - your folders are simply
shared so they can be accessed by your Sonos system.
Scheduling music index updates
You can set your music system to automatically update your music index at the same time each day.
1.
From the
Music
menu, select
Schedule Music Index Updates
