![]() ![]() If doing it the way that article recommends doesn't work for your use case, then I'll be happy to try to help you find a better solution. Otherwise it's a manual process but can be done using wifi. ![]() If you have Apple Music set up, it will auto-sync. In fact, it appears if you now delete or move this folder, as I accidentally did the other day, BS (and Monterey) will auto-create another one for you.Īre you using a folder under Documents in order to have your music accessible on other Apple devices like your iPhone? Here's the way Apple suggests you sync music between your devices ( ). The default location that Apple, and accordingly Sonos, wants you to use to store your music files is in the stock Music folder in your Home Folder, i.e., ~/Music. And that's a big problem for me.īut back to your case, you're going to have to find another way to deal with your music files if you want to add them to the Sonos ML. that I used on Mojave are not going to work right on BS. So some of the GitHub apps, scripts, etc. Nothing Sonos can do about it, nor you, nor me apparently, which creates quite a few more problems for me than which folders I can add to the Sonos ML.Īs I've learned in the last couple of days of intensive research looking for workarounds on altering file/folder permissions on BS, it's virtually impossible to do so. This is just the way things are now with at least the last two Apple OS. So no need to waste time on the phone with Sonos. To prove this, I just put some music in a new folder in Documents, tried to add it to the ML, and here's the message I got: Your problem is Monterey, nor Big Sur (BS) that I'm now on, is going to give Sonos permission to add any folders from Documents to the Sonos ML. What is the location of the folder you're trying to add? I saw something flash by after I input my password during the Sonos Add music folder process, and suspect it triggered this executable to run which gave the OS the necessary permissions to add the folder to the Sonos Library.Īs I've frustratingly learned about Big Sur, Apple has added all these new permission requirements in order to not allow write permissions to be granted to certain files/folders, so I think that's the issue you're encountering on your Monterey install. If you double-click on the executable, you get the following Terminal output: SonosLibraryServer is a Unix executable and is found in two locations on my Big Sur install as follows: I was never asked to grant Full Disk Access (FDA) to anything, and I checked under System Prefs, and there is nothing Sonos-related under FDA. The folder I added wasn't in the system Music folder under my Home Folder, so I got the following popups in order to add it: I've upgraded to Big Sur from Mojave (erased the drive and did a clean install) since our last interaction, and I just added a folder to my Music Library. ![]()
