just pushed the most recent update. Almost thought I had to delete and reinstall. Roon would not start. Despite several Mac reboots. I click on connect to another server. My same Mac pulled up. Tried clicking on connect. Would not do anything. Rebooted my Mac again, same thing popped up to click on connect. This time it worked and Roon server started and everything looks the same. Running OS v15.7.5.
Mine was Server and Remote on same MacBook Pro. Server did not automatically restart. It restarted after one reboot of the Mac.
the windows one just worked as ever
So did the Mac one for me
I’ve had to manually restart the server on a Mac for the past few Roon releases (including this one). No need to restart the Mac itself in my case.
Had no troubles since a while with a MAC actual System 26.4.1 together with Sonos but since the new update I always have interrupts playing qobuz or harddisk and at least it stops completely playing after 1 minute or 2. So Roon is not useable at the moment. Had this trouble already some time ago and didn’t use Roon for a long time. It wouldn’t be that problem normally as I have qobuz, but I have a lot of CD’s on my harddisk which I never found again till now on a streaming platform. Nevertheless for a lifetime subscription it’s more than disappointing.
Yes, something is not right with the update on mac. I’m running roon server on a mac mini. And when trying to connect to it from may macbook - it cannot find the roon server. Whats weird is if I open up roon on the mac mini, then it works. And I was able to play music on my macbook, controlled from roon on the mac mini, so it would seem that:
- updating from 2.65 → 2.66 the audio works server → client
- … but the client does not seem to properly find & connect to the server
I’ve reinstalled both the server and the clients, reboot all computers but nothing seems to have helped. So currently I’m hoping the bug can be found, fixed and an update is soon released.
In the mean time, I’ll just listen via Tidal. Its a bummer and it sure makes things a little bit more difficult but music is still flowing through my speakers so I’m pretty happy.
I had to reboot M4 Mac 24G Sequoia 15.6.1 once after update to get core to start. I’ve had this before this release as well so nothing new for me.
Did you do the usual after updates on Mac?
There is not a wave of complaints by Mac users, so it’s unlikely that „something is not right with the update on mac“ in some general way.
Open a support ticket if you can’t make it work: Support > Get Help
After being without Roon for the first three months of macOS Tahoe… I’m OK with a slightly bumpy Roon Update. ![]()
For me - it broke my backup again.
Last one fixed it, this one broken again ![]()
yeah, already done that on both machines, unfortunately. Thanks for the suggestion, I do appreciate the help.
I had the same issue (Mac M1) …but it worked after one reboot. But now I have occasional dropouts and other playing issues – something I have never had with ROON and it is really frustrating. Seems an update bug.
Support → Get Help and open a ticket
@vadim Will this be fixed? Do I have to open a new ticket?
You didn’t open one, so no. @moderators can you perhaps reopen the previous one that was considered solved?
I do not want to panic. If it cannot be reopened, I’ll have to open one after the new release.
It is weird that this backup functionality gets broken quite often, I’ve been with Roon for about 7-8 years and it gets fixed, gets broken, gets fixed, gets broken. Sometimes it is corrupted database(that’s what I was told a few times), last time we didn’t get to the bottom of it.
Feels like they are missing a unit or integration test on this functionality, but I might be wrong.
It’s never been broken for me in 5 years, so I don’t know. Good luck! (for both of us
)
It might depend on a platform. I’ve been running it on MacMini M1 for 5+ years, it broke about 3 times. Moved to Ugreen Nas, in the mid of last year, and it goes through motions again.
ROCK here, dunno if it makes a difference
