Sony HAP-Z1ES + MacBookPro
From the Sony ES unit, here's a workaround: #1, on your HAP-Z1ES unit, press the Power and Home buttons simultaneously. #2, select change SMB address, dial to select SMB version 1.0. #3, scroll down and select Restart. #4, power unit on and then start the HAP Music Transfer app on your Mac computer. #5, be aware that file transfers will now take longer. #6, watch the Sony HAP-Z1ES support page for an update in the next few weeks. Do note:The transfer was a bit slower but not much slower than usual - 5+ minutes for ~700mb *The unit should be off when you first start the steps outlined in JDAWG's post. And you should release the Power & Home button when you see the SONY come up. If you hold it too long it'll just power up and power down. *The workaround seems to continue working after you power down, so, at least in my case, I didn't need to repeat these steps each time I wanted to transfer after turning the unit on. (With large thanks to Shawn of Sony ES, and the various discussants in the Sony Community HAP-Z1ES thread, notably JDAWG and User1623339705956324586. |
I had this problem and found that if you got the IP/Mac address thingy of the Sony then you could do the "connect to server" from Finder in Mac and then I could drag and drop no problem. This was about a year ago, but I believe it was related to when Apple OS switched to 64 bit (and it killed my Harmony Universal Remote App on my Mac as well) Anyway - you might be a different problem with a more recent OS update, but just wanted to share that. |
