Server Version#: 1.27.2.5929 Player Version#: 1.48.2 macOS Version#: 12.4 MacBook Pro Intel The Plex app windows are invisible. After starting the app I can’t see any windows. The app logo is visible in the dock and I can select the Plex app on the menu bar, for example the preferences - but the windows are still not visible. Selecting to “show all windows” in the dock minimizes all other apps and if I hover over the lover half of the screen I get a blue border with rounded edges but that is all. I already deleted the app by dragging the icon into the trash and reinstalled it a couple of times with no change in behavior. Plexamp works fine on the same machine. Just downloaded Plex HTPC and it seems to work fine as well - though I didn’t connect to my server yet. Plex web works fine. All Plex apps on all other devices work fine. Any ideas? ---

It’s a long shot, but you’re describing what it looks like when I run Plex Media Server on my Mac. An icon appears on the menu bar and no windows. There’s Plex Media Server that runs on Mac. It’s not a player. There’s Plex HTPC the standalone player with a 10’ interface. There’s Plex for Mac the standalone player. There’s the Plex Web App a browser based player Would you verify you downloaded Plex For Mac, the lastest being `Plex-1.48.2.3124-647ff031-x86_64.zip` The download page would be [Media Server Downloads | Plex Media Server for Windows, Mac, Linux, FreeBSD and More](https://plex.tv/downloads) and then the `App & Devices` tab for players. ---
