Hey all, I use an Xserve 2009 running Mac OS X 10.9 along with two Xserve RAID boxes for my Plex server that have been fine for many years, however recently I’ve gotten a message saying that I can’t access my server remotely anymore and that the Plex Media Server version MUST be 1.41.2 at the latest, I can’t update to that version since it doesn’t support my Mac OS X version, and I can’t update the server due to 10.9 being the latest OS you can install on Xserve plus I manage the whole thing with Server App 3.2.2 which is practically unobtainable today since it’s been taken off the Mac App Store. Is there a way to get around this requirement or a way to run the new Plex Media Server version on the old Mac OS X version or will this whole server just be useless now? Thanks for any help.

Server Version#: 1.24.4.5081

You could try OpenCore Legacy Patcher to update it to \>= 10.13, the minimum requirement for a “modern” Plex Media Server installation.

I’m not sure how well it would work with Server 3.2.2 (newer versions of macOS, that is). But it may at least get you an up-to-date PMS environment.
