I can't find the Plex Server Setup

Server Version#: 1.22.3.4392-d7c624def
Player Version#: 2.58.0.1076

I haven’t used Plex in a while and in bringing it up again, of course, everything has changed and I can’t find the sections I need. None of my TV shows are showing up. In fact, the entire genre of TV is missing.

I remember there was a section to add media, like TV, Movies, Podcasts, etc. but I cannot find out how to get to this. According to the online instructions you do this:

However, when I click the settings icon, I don’t see the same information in the sidebar as shown in this picture. Instead I see this:

I can’t find any way of getting to manage the libraries. I’m sure I’m missing something obvious here, but I can’t figure out what that is.

How do I get to the screen where I can manage my libraries?

Do you see this ?!


Unfortunately no. When I click the Home icon, I see this:

And More gives me this:

This is the problem. In the past, I used to see Home, Movies, TV, (other stuff I don’t remember, like Podcasts). But I don’t see them and I can’t find out how to set up the libraries with these categories and populate them with content.

This is my question. How do I get to the libraries.

After using More, hover your cursor over DESIGNEQ Thin iMac you will see a (+) to the left. Here you can add Libraries.

Or

Thanks for the clarifying image. I had been playing around, trying all kinds of things and suddenly realized I could not get back to that very screen I posted. I was dying to try the hover maneuver but now I couldn’t even find this screen again.

So I decided to just start from scratch. I uninstalled everything and reinstalled the servers. Finally I was able to find the Library page, where I added my libraries back in and now Plex is working the way I remembered.

Thanks again for your help.
