Can't get a plex pin to connect my devices.

Hey there,

So I just updated Plex on my Samsung TV and it required my to go to plex.tv/pin as usual. So I go onto my computer and go on plex.tv/pin and it asks for me to provide a 4 digit code that shows on the app. Right now I’m very confused because it usually just generates a pin then I just put it into the TV then done.
I connect to my home server which Plex is running from to see if the 4 digit code is there, I go to plex.tv/pin on my HS and it asks me the same thing - to check my app for a 4 digit code.
My plex server, my computer and my TV are all asking for a 4 digit code and I don’t know where to find it. I thought it would be my phone app or the web-app but I can’t seem to find it. I thought it meant my plex account pin, so I made one and still after that it still didn’t work.

I’m confused as to where I can find this 4 digit code now. What app is it prompting me to go to?

UPDATE: Seems like I’m unable to connect to the plex website so the Pin isn’t showing. Weird, since I’m able to post on the forums but I just can’t connect to the website through my TV app. My TVs internet is working (I can watch Youtube on it still) so it might just be a problem with the app when I updated it.

Hi

Perhaps a problem with the new update of the samsung plex app.

There is a discussion over here.
Also check these instructions.

So if you have a 2012 model you MUST update your firmware to be able to safely connect to Plex.tv again.
