# Web Client Sign-In

Sign in to Blackbeard’s Vault from a computer, phone, or tablet using a current web browser.

## Before you start

<div id="bkmrk-have-the-username-an" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.65;">- Have the **username and password supplied after signing up on Discord**. Use your username, not your email.
- Connect your device to the internet.

</div>## Sign in

<div id="bkmrk-open-https%3A%2F%2Fblackbe" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.65;">1. Open [https://blackbeardsvault.com](https://blackbeardsvault.com). **Keep the s in https://** when typing the address.
2. If a profile list appears, choose **Manual Login**. Enter your Discord-issued **Username** and **Password**. **Your username is case-sensitive:** match the capital and lowercase letters exactly.
3. Use **Remember me** only on your own device, then select **Sign In**.

</div>**Expected result:** your Emby home screen shows the libraries available to your account.

## Next steps

Bookmark the site with **Ctrl+D** on Windows or **Command+D** on Mac. Follow [Home Screen Customization](https://guides.blackbeardsvault.com/books/emby-app-setup-guides/page/home-screen-customization) to arrange your home page.

Want to use your own password? Follow [Change your password (Emby)](https://guides.blackbeardsvault.com/books/emby-app-setup-guides/page/change-your-password-emby). If you have forgotten it or cannot sign in, contact Cruv on Discord.

## Troubleshooting

**Already bought an app unlock in the past?** Emby honors those previous purchases. Sign in to the same Apple, Google, or Amazon store account that originally bought the unlock, using the matching app/platform. Use **Restore Purchase** if the app offers it. If the purchase is not recognized, contact Cruv. New app unlocks are no longer the route for access. **Never purchase Emby Premiere.**

**Need an unlock, or seeing “Premiere Device Limit Exceeded”?** Contact **@Captain Cruv** in **\#emby-support** for a **Jellyfin account**. **Do not buy an app unlock or Emby Premiere.** Once Cruv has provided your account, follow [Getting Started with Jellyfin](https://guides.blackbeardsvault.com/books/jellyfin-guides/page/getting-started-with-jellyfin).

<div id="bkmrk-cannot-reach-the-ser" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.65;">- **Cannot reach the server:** copy `https://blackbeardsvault.com` exactly and try [the web client](https://guides.blackbeardsvault.com/books/emby-app-setup-guides/page/web-client-sign-in).
- **Sign-in rejected:** check your username and password for extra spaces. Use the server login, not Emby Connect. Ask for account help if it still fails.
- **Playback or licensing error:** update the app, try another title, and report the exact message to support.

</div>Contact **@Captain Cruv** in **\#emby-support** on Discord. Include your device, app version, exact error, and when it happened. Never post your password.
