cambridgehank Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I have not received any success from Sonos support. I am hoping iTunes folks will have a better understanding of my issue. I have created playlist folders in the music app. I have 271 playlist and 52 folders . The Sonos app shows a notice that I have to many playlist to import. The app sees the folders as playlist, including a playlist called library which list all the songs in my library. Here is an example. I have a folder called "The Blues", it has five playlists included. Sonos shows a playlist "The Blues" which includes all the songs from the five playlist. The Sonos app also shows the five playlist. I would not have to many playlist if Sonos did not count the folders. I could delete the folders and just have playlist, I know. But I am to much of an A Tyoe that I need organization. Any suggestions welcomed. Link to comment
kirkmc Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 A playlist folder is a playlist; if you click it, you see it’s contents. So Sonos counts them. I didn’t know that Sonos had a limit on playlists. There are too many limits with Sonos: I can’t load my entire music library because I have more tracks and Sonos supports. In any case, I only use my Sonos devices to stream to from other devices my airplay. I don’t bother to use their crappy app and their library management.

cambridgehank Posted January 12, 2021 Author Share Posted January 12, 2021 Thanks Kirk for the reply. Neither of my macs shows the Sonos system in the Airplay list? Not sure why that is not happening? Link to comment
kirkmc Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Only fairly recent Sonos devices support AirPlay. Which devices do you have? https://support.sonos.com/s/article/1230?language=en_US I write about Macs, music, and more at Kirkville. Author of Take Control of macOS Media Apps.

cambridgehank Posted January 12, 2021 Author Share Posted January 12, 2021 Year old playbar and sub. I got at Best Buy so probably very old equipment that sat in their inventory. Thanks for the link. The bottom line there is that I have my system set up for surround sound and AirPlay is not supported in that mode. Link to comment
