Music folders

The Sonos system can play music from any computer or network-attached storage (NAS) device on your home network where you have shared music folders. During the setup process, you are guided through the process of accessing your shared music folders (such as your iTunes library). Over time, you may wish to add or remove folders from this list.

To make changes to your shared folders list, select the Settings menu from a handheld Sonos controller and then choose one of the following options:

•To add a new music folder to Sonos, select Manage Music Library ->Music Library Setup ->Add New Share.

•To remove a music folder, select Manage Music Library -> Music Library Setup. Touch the share you wish to remove and then select Remove Share.

The Sonos system indexes your music folders so you can view your music collection by categories (such as artists, albums, composers, genres, or tracks.) If you add new music to a folder that is already indexed, simply update your music index to add this music to your Sonos music library.

•To update your music index, select Manage Music Library -> Update Music Index Now. If you’d like your music index to update automatically each day, select Schedule Music Index Updates and then select a music index update time.
