Description of Issue

I cannot access my Nucleus+ library from my laptop or iMac remotes. When I start the Roon app on either of those laptops, it states that there is a software update needed, but both the “This Mac” and “Nucleus+” both show green checkmarks on both computers. I can access the Nucleus+ from my iPhone, but the local drive connected to the iMac and shared is no longer accessible after I updated the OS trying to get rid of that message. I have restarted everything multiple times but I get the same message. Using my iPhone is very difficult to navigate.

On top of this, ARC shows as “ready” in setup remote on my iPhone, but the app has become incredibly unstable and will not connect t to the Nucleus+ core even though the ARC app shows “online and ready.” it drops every few seconds even though I reset ARC.

[TuliaNonTroppo]

You tell me. My software automatically updates from Roon. Everything has been working fine today.

I think these are my two cores, Jim. I have an early access on my iMac but only connect to that when my Nucleus+ goes down. I use my Nucleus+ every day with no issues (for the most part).

You need everything on the same version, at least all that you want to use together as a core and remote for that core.

[TuliaNonTroppo]

Everything connects to the Nucleus+ so everything should be fine. I listened to ARC for nine hours today without issue, then this happened.

[TuliaNonTroppo]

Everything has been a remote for the Nucleus+ core for months. Nothing has changed outside of the frequent updates pushed from Roon.

[TuliaNonTroppo]

The only two screens I can access from the laptop and iMac remotes is the “choose your Roon Core” screen that shows my Nucleus+ as “ready”, so when I connect to that, the screen from my first screenshot pops up and only allows me to go back to the “Choose your Roon Core” screen. That’s it.

I can get into the configure Roon OS via IP address, so I know my Nucleus+ is up and running, I just can’t get to it from my two remotes and my ARC is on the Fritz.

Your Nucleus is running Roon 2.0 build 1277. Put your remotes on that version. You can leave your Mac on 1292, but if you do, you can’t use it as a remote for the Nucleus.

Roon 2.0.17 and ARC 1.0.38 are live!

Hello Everyone, This release contains a long-awaited feature: MUSE, a DSP suite for on-the-go use in ARC. Roon’s audio shaping control and pristine sound quality have arrived in ARC - with bold styling never before seen in a mobile app. MUSE delivers the precision audio control of Roon when you’re outside your local network.

Roon 2.0 Build 1292 and ARC Build 192 is Live!

Hello Everyone, With this cycle’s Early Access release, we’re introducing some minor simplifications both to the Roon user experience and to the software backend. We’ve brought single sign-on (SSO) to Roon and ARC, sparing users the confusion of a separate login page in each app. Rather than enter their credentials within the app, the ARC and Roon login pages now open a browser where users can securely sign into all Roon services. This change will greatly enhance the security of Roon user acco…

As the Software Release Notes for Build 1292 (Early Access) state:

Please note: this update will prevent users from connecting an earlyaccess Remote to a production Core. Attempting to connect in this setup will prompt an incompatibility screen. If you have migrated your core away from earlyaccess then you should install the production remotes to match.
