You have two different email accounts

one is ` ******* ogt@trinity.edu` (Forums)  
And the other is: ` ******* deer@gmail.com` (The real account)

And I see emails has been dispatched!

So please check both email accounts, as well as their spam folder

And just dispatched another pwd reset email for you

I am having the same issue in which reset instruction emails to seem to be dispatched. I signed up for Plex Pass on 10May21 using the email I just signed up to the forums with. Tried multiple times sending the password reset email using this address and the one that is connected to my PayPal account (where my payments to Plex are made). Nothing in either inboxes or spam folders. Any assistance here would be much appreciated. Thank you!

There is no Plex account which uses this email address.  
You might want to take a look into the spam folder of this email account. Look out for emails from Plex at July, 3rd

I signed up for the membership via email that I had previously signed up for.  
The profile image was recovered, but the plex pass was not.

Do you need any information to restore the plex pass? For example, a PayPal receipt

You are using yet another user account. Why?  
Have you looked in your email spam folder?

Please contact [Contact | Plex](https://www.plex.tv/contact/?option=plex-pass-billing) and be prepared to provide some proof that this is actually your account.

I signed up with gmail to write on the forum because I couldn’t log in to the previous account.

The profile image has been restored when you re-subscribe via your existing email!!!  
As the account disappears, I don’t get a recovery email and I don’t think there’s anything in spam.

I sent you an inquiry through the link, so please solve it quickly.

For anyone that’s having problems receiving email instructions, the Plex system is running very slow, I thought I wasn’t getting anything, and I clicked on send instructions several times, but 2 hours later, I ended up with 15 emails with instructions to reset password, but there’s an easier way, go to [https://support.plex.tv](https://support.plex.tv), and if you’re already logged in, click on your profile icon, then click account settings, there you can change your password.

If you’re not already logged in, you can still login from the support.plex.tv site, assuming you use the same login details as the main plex.tv website.

I already did this while waiting for an email, but make sure you check the box to logout of other devices.

this did not work for me because my old or new password (it doesn’t way) doesn’t work. Says “Invalid Password” when I try to change through web or server.
