Local music library
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 local
music library (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 on a
handheld controller.
• To remove a music folder, select Manage Music Library-> Music Library Setup. Touch the share you wish to remove
and then select Remove.
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, touch Settings -> Manage Music Library -> Update Music Index Now.
• If you’d like your music library to update automatically each day, open the Sonos Controller app on your Mac or PC.
Select Manage -> Music Library Settings and click the Advanced tab. Check Library Updates and select an update
time.
