Can't figure out how to add movies. don’t see anything about library, download or add library

Can’t figure out how to add movies. don’t see anything about library, download or add library.

i don’t see the information you are talking about. i can’t find anything about adding media or libraries.

The software you have there is a pure Plex Client.
In order to add your own media, you need to install the Plex Server.

you mean plex media server? i have it downloaded.

Yes, but you have the desktop app “Plex” open. It appears that your server hasn’t been set up, yet properly.
You need to use the web app
http://127.0.0.1/web
for the initial configuration, particularly signing the server into your plex.tv account.

the link didn’t work but are you talking about this?i’ve had no luck here also.

This is the hosted web app. You need the local one for the initial setup.
I’m sorry, I gave you an incomplete URL above. This should be the right one: http://127.0.0.1:32400/web

i have this already but it doesn’t allow me to make a library, nore anywhere i can i find anything about a library.

who can i contact to get help?

What happens when you click ‘More’ - then hover over the server so you can see the + sign appear - so you can add a library?

Anything good happening there?

my account name doesn’t even show up on my computer. but my name does show up when i check my plex on my phone and tv

Hit the Pencil above ‘bigger than trump’ and select ‘reset customization’.

Select HelloTim as your default server - then pin those libraries to your side bar.

You can unpin all that Plex Server nonsense, or pin just what you want, or disable all of it in Settings/Online Media Sources.

hello tim is not me, he has linked his plex to mine for now so i have something to watch. my name is Fish Man. my name doesn’t show up

Is there a Plex icon in the system tray of your desktop?

Select ‘Open Plex’ from there.

You can’t do any of this from the hosted app at Plex.tv

You MUST do it locally - in Plexweb - on your server machine.

There - we hope.
