Server Version#:
Player Version#:
hello, i need some help with plex media servers can’t add library ,in my setting does not appear where to add library y see that it may be posible to have a wrong update,but its the application for my Mac,i don’t know but I installed the last version of plex,what doesn’t work I see others have the same problem, how do I fix it?
I guess you have only just installed your server?
Make sure to complete the setup by accessing your Plex Media Server through its local IP address. If you’re on the same Mac, open http://127.0.0.1:32400/web in your browser – otherwise open http://[PMS IP address]:32400/web. This should bring up a wizard/dialog where you can name your server, link it to your Plex account and create your first libraries.
I tried,doesnt workout say safari can’t open that address because its not valid.
same issue here. I have no idea on how to set up my media, I can’t find any help articles, there is no support. Any idea?
If I goto the web address, I see my user. I sign in and I see the interface. if I press + to add a library, it prompts me to download Plex Server. I AM RUNNING PKEX SERVER!
I am going around in circles.
Maybe the router could be the reason?,because I don’t even see add library, that icon for settings it only show me 3 things,General,Debug and Player,soo I can’t fiind add library.
the router has nothing to do with it. I am trying to set this up on the Plex server. when I try to add my media, it tells me to download Plex server but I am on Plex server.
@drglasss86_gmail_com : make sure your Plex Media Server is running – you should see a Plex icon (>) in the Mac’s menu bar. Once it’s running you should be able to access this url from the same Mac.
@ddw4t3kndi_privaterelay_appleid_com : see the linked support article on how to install a Plex Media Server above. There’s tons of support articles – so I’m not exactly sure where you were searching if you didn’t find them 
Apparently you’re doing the same mistake trying to access your server through another app or the hosted version of Plex Web (https://app.plex.tv/desktop) – this will only work AFTER you linked your Plex server with your Plex account!! == same procedure as detailed above

ok. so I download the PLEX SERVER APP. in run the installer. it asks to move it to my home applications folder. I do this. I go to Safari and type:
http://172.0.0.1:32400/web
This has a login button and a pin. I enter my pin. the Plex interface appears. on the left side there was a + for adding my media. When I select this, it tells me to download Plex Server. What is going on!
Also Ihid the + button on the left so now I don’t even get the option anymore.
The “Help” page tells me to go to press the https://support.plex.tv/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2013/09/Web-Settings.png icon and from there go to add library but there is no such button.
Is Plex still Beta software as it seems very unfinished.
not workings already downloaded again plex media servers opened that first adress and appears the same thing like the guy with the foto. no way to see add library, in that icon for settings the same things don’t know what to do. where it say YOUR MEDIA I got nothing and appears download plex media server, but it already downloaded and opened
This does not help. I have followed the instructions but still no option to add any libraries.
If you had Plex installed on your machine before and linked it to a different Plex account, the new server install will still remember this association.
You might want to try this…
Alternatively you can do a full server uninstall (incl. all possibly available data from previous installs) and start over.
I have tried this. When I try to reset the server, I get:
jason$ cd Library/Preferences/
CCTV-Plex-Mac-mini:Preferences jason$ defaults delete com.plexapp.plexmediaserver PlexOnlineHome
2021-10-21 09:26:55.768 defaults[9580:867151]
Domain (com.plexapp.plexmediaserver) not found.
Not sure where that’s coming from, perhaps you should post some screen shots of where your seeing this information and a few more details of what your actually doing to evaluate the issue. It should not be this complicated. I’ve installed several server and it works first time every time.
