Jellyfin Client for MacOS 10.13.6 High Sierra or older? - BobSmith1234 - 2024-03-11
Is there a Jellyfin Client for MacOS 10.13.6 High Sierra or older? I have a Macbook pro 2011, and the macos download said I needed 10.15 or above, but my old Mac cannot download anything more recent than 10.13.
I have a newer windows 10 laptop (relative to the 2011 macbook pro) with the jellyfin client and files for all the media, and I want to be able to play movies on my 2011 in a different room of the house.
Please keep in mind I am not very computer literate. Coding is beyond my understanding.
I appreciate the help. Thank you
edit: my windows laptop has the jellyfin server

Can you clarify what you mean. You keep saying "client" when one of them should be "server". It sounds like the SERVER is running on the Windows laptop. If so, you can use your Safari, or whatever browser you use, to access Jellyfin. You can also use the desktop client, Jellyfin Media Player. AFAIK, it doesn't have a hard MacOS version requirement, but I'm not a Mac user.

Please don't double post. BTW, moved this to general questions.

Thank you for the reply.
You are correct, my windows laptop has the server, that was a mistype on my part.
The link you included was the same one I used prior.
The one I downloaded was the macos-notarized.dmg. After I downloaded, it says I need macOS 11.7
The jellyfin page itself says you need macOS 10.15 or higher.
You said I can access Jellyfin through my web browser. Does that require a download? I cannot find any info on how to access via browser.
I believe the browser client would suit my needs just fine.
Thanks again!

Just type in http://yourServerIPhere:8096 into your browser.

The Browser solution works.
Thank you!
I was unaware I double posted. A local storm has been messing with my internet so there is a chance I hit post on the same page twice.
Also I edited my original post to correct that windows laptop is my server not my client. Could that have been cause of Double post?
