Locked Out of my Plex Media Server

Plex Media Server

Server Version#:4.147.1
For some reason, I have been locked out of my Plex Media Server. When I start Plex Media Server and choose myself as the user, When I go to my list of movies, it says Not Authorized. I am using the Safari browser, as I always have, and I am using macOS Tahoe 26.1. I have set up a managed account for my wife and I, and if I go to my managed account, I can see my movies, but not if I go to my regular account. I also cannot update the files from my managed account, and I am locked out of my main Plex account with my user name.

I am wondering if I need to delete my managed account and just leave my wife’s account. Without being able to access the movies in my regular Plex account, I cannot update the files when I add movies to my hard drive.

This problem happened all at once for no reason. I wasn’t updating the server or anything. I tried the procedure listed in an article where I delete some files using Terminal, but that did nothing. What do I need to do?

Also, it tells me I do not have any connected servers, but I was always automatically connected before. How do I connect to my server?

When I click on one of my libraries in the left pane, the message says: “Not authorized. You do not have access to this server.” But I have always had access, since my libraries are on hard drives connected to my Mac Mini. How do I re-establish access?
