Hi,
I'm new on here, so I'm sorry if this issue has already been posted.
I used the Plex Media Server via the Roku app to watch TV shows on my home television for about a year. LOVED IT! About 6ish months ago, I updated the Plex Media Server. Ever since I did this, whenever I open the Plex Media Server by going to the Applications folder, on my MacBook Air, a Plex tab opens up in Google Chrome (like it used to) and the Plex icon appears next to my Bluetooth icon at the top of the screen. In the upper left-hand corner of the Chrome window, under the home button, it just says 'Looking for servers...' and an orange circle spins continuously.
When I go into the Plex app on Roku, it says 'We couldn't locate a server'. At the top of the screen, it says No Servers with an arrow. Underneath that, it says MacBook Pro. When I click on it, it says MacBook connection state: unreachable. Please sign into your server and check your connection.
When I go into Settings within the Plex web app, it doesn't list a server. It just says Web, Users, and Devices (of which my MacBook and my Roku are listed).
I just have a simple ATT home wifi network that I connect my Roku and my MacBook Air to. I have read over quite a few of the troubleshooting articles and FAQs to no avail. I am at a loss and am kicking myself for updating Plex when it worked just fine previously. Does anybody have any suggestions? I'm not exactly a tech wizard, so I'm hoping that it's simply a setting that needs to be changed. Thank you for taking the time to help!
