Being disorganized finally getting the bugs worked through what works and many device that work but not really. I have managed to use up my PLEX Codes. Google Authenticator Codes works fine. if I have my smartphone with me half the time. I kept my codes in my email and wallet. How do I get another set of CODE emailed to me ? I searched all over and can not find info for that.
There is info here about it. https://support.plex.tv/articles/two-factor-authentication/#toc-2

OUCH So I guess I will have to remove the program and re-install the next time I need a codes
my mistake. we did add a way to get via email. updated my previous post.
the 2FA is for your account. reinstalling will not bypass 2FA
So what are my options ?
The link above describes your options including how to receive an email.
When I click on get more codes there is no option for other. Only Code which are spent.
We are ahead of ourselves. I can log in to PLEX with no trouble, and the Google Authenticator on my phone works fine. I used my last of 10 codes to activate PLEX Dash on a Tablet of mine. I was trying to get 10 more codes and it keeps asking for a CODE to do so, which is spent.
I can’t figure out why you won’t use the code the authenticator app is showing you. The codes don’t do different things. The generated codes on the account page are for emergencies when you cannot access your phone.
The App works fine. I was too late to remember the 10 codes for a rainy day and thought it would be easy to get 10 more to store. Seems very final
Then use it to get 10 more codes.
BAM ! Here I was using one of the 10 codes which are 16 digits long. Didn’t know the mobile app would work on my Personal PLEX Server. I thought that app was to activate mobile PLEX on devices.
THANK YOU !!! THANK YOU !!! THANK YOU !!! THANK YOU !!!
