I installed the latest server on my iMac, installed the client on my iPhone, and nothing plays. On my iphone it says "unable to play media content" and on the imac it just says "loading" forever. A quick google search says to turn off "universal transcoder" but that did not work for me. I also tried rebooting the computer. Any other ideas?

repair permissions, reboot.
reinstall.
WiFi I assume?
I know when I first updated PMS, it took a long time to index.
Can you play the stuff on the computer with Plex?

Dave,

What kind of media? Plex doesn't necessarily play everything.
