Cant change password?

I can’t remember my password so would like to change it. I click on Forgot password and I receive the email. I click on the button to reset my password and it logs me in to my plex account but doesn’t offer to change my password. If I go to Account Settings and try to change my password it asks me to confirm my current password… WTF???

How do I change my password if I dont remember my old one?

Copy the link from the email into the clipboard.
Then open your web browser in ‘incognito’ or ‘private’ mode.
Paste in the address from the clipboard into the address bar.

Thanks, that worked.

I can’t log onto my account because it strangely says that my password is wrong when it it not. When I try to get a link to create a new one I never receive an email. I clicked “forgot password”, put in my email but receive nothing. HELP!

I even had to create this email only to be able to get support because in the “contact” form it’s not possible. Kind of stupid! The email I used to create my account is not the same as this one.

Please PM me your real user name and email address so this can be investigated.

This account has been deleted, about 2 days ago.
Password restoration cannot be done for deleted accounts.

I have filed this account for restoration. It might take a few hours.

How strange… How van I access the account later?

I will tell you when it’s done.

Grenar… Thanksgiving a lot

The account has been restored now.

Try to login with your regular password. (please only try 2 times)

If that fails, request a password reset. https://app.plex.tv/auth#?resetPassword

It söker butikssäljare now it says that the server is not available

Yes, because your web browser is still logged into the other plex account you created, to access the forum.
You must log out from this temporary account and go back into your real plex account.

I ligger out and in to my old account. Same resultat. No server is available

I reinstalled Plex media server om my laptop. I reinstalled Plex om my Bad but No it is still THE same. I changed router two days Ago, van that be the reason? The new one is a Huawei B525.

And now it says to download Plex media server and to install it and the server will show in windows. But I have done that and No server can be seen

On how many machines have you installed Plex server?
Because I can see that there is a Plex server in your current plex account.
Is the web browser installed on the same machine as your Plex server?

Are you using VPN software?

Shut down Plex server using its tray icon
PMS_tray_icon_win10_context_menu
extract the .reg file from this zip archive secureconns_reset.zip (388 Bytes)
and double-click it and import the settings into your registry.

Now start Plex server again and let it run for 5 minutes.
fetch log files and attach them here
(use the ‘Manual’ method of getting the logs and zip up the whole folder)

I’m Herting crazy herr. I deleted the account I created today with this account but my Hotmail account disappeared again. So back to square One :slightly_frowning_face:

No, you deleted your “real” account. Again.
The very same that was restored today already.

Please use your web browser to access this forum
Don’t use your email account.

The account has been restored again. Don’t delete any Plex accounts anymore! It might not be possible to restore them again.

Log your web browser out of the plex account ‘Drezz2’.
Log it back in to your real account ‘Drezz’.

Once you have done that, perform this procedure to bring your plex server back into the same account:
