    Thank you! I had to factory reset all of my speakers, and then reset my WiFi. During set up each speaker tried to connect to a different t WiFi signal (not mine). It was so frustrating! Finally I was able to get everything connected again.

    I have 19 Sonos and Symfonisk pieces around the house (Arc, Beam, Gen 3 subs, Fives, One SLs, Era 100, Symfonisk bookshelf, & Roam). Usually, the software updates are set to Auto and no problems because I use the TV remotes or iPhone airplay for music after the app speaker installation/Trueplay. First time today, two Beams, both Roams, and the kitchen Era 100 fell off the network. The Beams came online after a power reset of the soundbars. I had to do a reset to factory and re-add into my network for the 2 Roams and kitchen Era 100. The living room Arc/sub/Fives and master bedroom beam/sub/Symfonisk had zero issues.

      @@Fanfreddy111 most probably it is the Arc not connected to your new Wi-Fi. Try adding the new network to the Arc while it is connected via Ethernet. If this doesn’t work probably the quickest way to resolve it is to factory restore the Arc and setup again 👍

    Hi!
    I have Sonos system (Arc, Sub, Pair of One SL) + TV LG OLED C1 + iPhone 14 Pro Max.
    When I use my iPhone, AirPlay & Bluetooth devices to show my videos on my iPhone to TV, no sound is coming on TV and speakers.
    Is there a setting I have to do in order to the sound is coming to my Sonos System when I use from my video on iPhone to my TV?
    I always use my iPhone to connect to the TV to watch the video I have on my iPhone that I recorded it by AirPlay, but no sound it comes from Sonos System. It looks like sound mute.
    Thank you!

    My Sonos system is going absolutely crazy for some reason I keep unplugging and re-plugging and rebooting the router etc. But dropouts are happening all the time, speakers suddenly go off-line and then it says do you want to add the speaker back a few days later? I feel like having a Sonos garage sale at the moment.

    Tony, have you found a fix to the app asking you to register products that are already registered? I’ve tried everything except asking SONOS to delete my account and starting from scratch. I cannot use 5 out of 7 components and have spent at least 6 hours troubleshooting.

    I was told that my Sonos Play5 Gen 1 will not be supported on the S2 app. The Play5 was most expensive, and the Play1 Gen1 is supported but with upgrade via the S2 app.

    • @TechWithTonyAustralia
      @TechWithTonyAustralia  Місяць тому

      @@garybanks2339 yes that’s correct. The reason is the Play 1 was a newer design and has the processing power to operate the newer S2 app. The Play 5 was released in 2009 (as the ‘S5’) where the Play 1 was released in 2013.

    I am a SONOS lover - and have got friends to buy the same. I have 9 speakers in my house on different levels. This new app has screwed me over - with so much maintenance and long phone-calls. How is that SONOS RELEASED THIS ???? Now to SPLIT different music into different speakers - is a multilayer operation. I'm trying to do this for my wife, as this is just too DIFFICULT !!! Please do some simplification SONOS Team !!! Or give us the old app !!

      @@kingkobra1956 if your Bose system is working well then absolutely stick with it. Unfortunately Bose are now a shadow of their former selves and their product range is now tiny. Their issue was minimal product development over more than a decade and were left behind and lost their loyal customer base, mostly to brands like Sonos. A lesson to any company to not trade on past success.

      @TechWithTonyAustralia You are absolutely correct and those are my sentiments exactly. I am a fan of Bose but they are content to be stagnant and not innovate. I was seriously contemplating investing into the Sonos ecosystem but with their ongoing myriad of non stop issues that's definitely not going to happen.

    After this fiasco … it really is a S3 NOT a S2 .. so that’s the biggest lie they have perpetuating. If is not a S3 why did they contemplate under fire from their fans to go back to the previous version ? Never set your device to automatically update unless you know what exactly is being updated from the respected reviewers #patrickspenceresign
