Turns out when I started my server it would login using the old connection. So I don't know if this is expected behavior and it checks in the background whether the server is online and then allows you to hit the button.

I'm getting this on macOS as well.

I am not sure if this is the same problem but after connecting and opening media player the application hangs on this screen. Server is accessible using web browser just fine. I am on apple silicon.

I had this problem a while back when updating jellyfin to the latest version - i think there was some kind of configuration mismatch between the old and new versions that caused it to struggle to find the old server details. Oddly, for me, i couldn't type in the connect input to enter the new details. Deleting all the config files fixed it for me.

Same here - Windows 10.
Server is accessible via browser

Reinstall the app did not help - but fixed it by deleting all Jellyfin-data in 'AppData'
