Remote for B540 AIO

Hi all,
I purchased a B540 AIO last month. But I still could not figure out what is the remote for. The remote model is RC2604327. The configuration number for the PC is 57311751. The remote doesn't seem like working with the PC at all.
I called the tech support, and was told that the remote is supposed to work with TV tuner only. Since my PC doesn't have TV tuner, so it won't work. But I simply could not understand, why Lenovo send me a remote in the package that they know it won't work. And eventually it's piece of garbage that I can't throw into trash can for environmental reason. Lenovo is still selling the same PC with the same remote in configuration. Detail could be found at http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:item.detail?...
Anyway, all these don't sound reasonable to me. I am wondering, is it true? Or actually I got a defective IR remote?
Thanks,
-Shane

hi faint2die,
Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
The tech support representative is right, the remote control model # RC2604327 is for the TV Tuner (see 23 of User's Guide on how it works - also, the TV tuner is an add-in for B540 selected models).
If you're not planning on getting a TV Tuner add-in, you can try to sell it on ebay for an extra $$.
Cheers,
neokenchi

  • Does ThinkVantage System Update 5.06 work on B540 AIO?

    Can someone clarify if ThinkVantage System Update 5.06 can be used on the Ideacenter B540 AIO? Says in the ReadMe txt file that it supports Lenovo V/B/K/E Series. Thanks for any help.
    Solved!

    Thanks for the quick reply. Guess I have to use Device Manager to update drivers, etc. BTW the Warranty Info and Support & Download links for my country (http://www.lenovo.com/contact/sg/en/index.shtml) do not work. Think all support here is outsourced, which is why I'm grateful for this forum.

  • I'm looking for a bluetooth remote for iPad's iBooks app

    I'm looking for a bluetooth remote that will allow me to flip the pages of a book in the iBooks app.
    Does anybody know of such a thing? I have found remotes for the iPad, but they seem obscure as to what it can accomplish. I need something more than something that plays iTunes remotely. I have a specific need.
    Any advice or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    Yubz Magnum really has great sound. They come in four colors too.

  • Keynote Remote for iPad

    I'm not looking to control Keynote on the iPad, but rather use my iPad as a Keynote Remote for my MacPro running Keynote for Mac.  I have it on the iPhone, but running Keynote for Mac 'remotely' from my iPad would be better for me.  I run photography workshops and courses and in my studio my MacPro is connected to a 42" display that I run a Keynote presentation on.  I've been controlling it with Keynote Remote on my iPhone, but would rather use my iPad as the remote.

    Although I have it on my iPhone, I couldn't find how to install it on my iPad.  Thought it wasn't compatible.  Found it through my "Purchased Apps" on the iPad (App Store) and hit install.  Thanks for verifing that it was compatible and I just had to dig a little deeper.
    Wish they'd come out with a dedicated iPad version with a few more features rather than just a 2X view of the iPhone app.

  • IPhone remote for iPad

    Hi there
    Does anyone know if it's possible to set up the iPhone as a remote for the iPad? I have my music collection on my iPad which is plugged into my home hifi and would like to be able to make music selections on the iPad using the iPhone as a remote. Any steer in the right direction appreciated.
    Cheers

    Hi,
    Yes.
    I use Tango to control my iTunes library from my iPhone.
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tango-remote-control-music/id345279970?mt=8
    Make sure and install the Tango app on both devices.
    Launch the app on your iPhone and follow the instructions. Very easy to use.
    After the app discovers your music library, tap "More" at the bottom of the app window then tap Settings. You can enable the iPhone so you just "shake" it to play the next song.

  • Logic Remote for iPad always gets disconnected from paired iMac..?

    Hello,
    I recently downloaded GarageBand 10.0.0 and Logic Remote for the iPad, the thing is, it only stays connected when:
    (1) GarageBand does not have any open projects or
    (2) When the project is about to be closed, as the user is being prompted to: "Don't Save", "Cancel" or "Save"
    I know Logic Remote connects to the Mac I am using since it tells me to open a project first, then right after I open a project,
    logic remote always tells me
    "The connection to <computer name> was lost. Please select the Mac you wish to connect to"
    The app then tries to reconnect and reconnect, but nothing happens.
    By accident, as I tried to close the project in the Mac, whose snapshot is attached in this posting:
    the app then is able to remotely control garageband...
    When I cancel the project closing, the problem persists...
    This actually renders the app useless...
    Have you guys encountered this situation.?

    I am experiencing the identical problem as janjerick.
    To reproduce the problem:
    1) On iMac OS 10.9, Launch Garageband 10.0  - choose Empty Project.  Created a "software instrument" track.
    2) On iPad, Launch Logic Remote 1.02  and select the hosting iMac computer.
    3) Connection seemed to come up on the iPad, then prompty goes away.  "The connect to <host> was lost".
    4) The connection doesn't come back... UNTIL I try to dismiss the project on iMac Garageband. The instant I get the "Do you want to save the document" dialog -- Boom!  The Logic Remote connection is established.  And then the Logic Remote seems to be able to control Garageband (while the 'Do you want to save the document' dialog is in the foreground on Garageband.).   But as soon as I try to go back into a project on Garageband, the connection is lost.
    Here's the kicker: I also have Logic Pro X on the same iMac and the "Logic Pro" remote app is working PERFECTLY with that.  But as soon as I flip back to Garageband, no go.
    Anyone else?

  • ITunes remote for iPad?  Cropping the info bar request...

    Sorry about the double idea here but remote for the iPad would be nice like as is on iPhone and also the ability to crop a screenshot without 3rd party apps would be nice too.

  • Remote for 2gen Touch

    Does anyone know of a reliable remote to use with a 2nd gen. Touch? I have the Monster iEZClick, but it stopped working when I upgraded to iOS4. I already changed the battery in the iEZClick remote with no luck. I also am not interested in the earbuds/microphone/remote that Apple sells. Thanks in advance.

    theres no way to control the iPod touch with a remote without having it in a dock of some kind. A lot of audio reciever companies sell their own wireless docks to go with a home audio system. Or Apple sells a universal dock for $50 and a remote comes with the dock to control the iPod while it's docked. On another note, there is an app for turning your iPod into a remote for your computer's iTunes. Just make sure your computer and iPod are on the same wifi network.

  • Remote for Presentations...

    My MacBook doesn't recognize the standard Bluetooth remotes used in our PC-laden lecture halls to control PowerPoint. None of the tech people know anything about a "Passkey" that Bluetooth Setup suggests I might need. (The remotes operate via a USB Bluetooth adapter plugged into the PC. I haven't tried plugging it into my MacBook.)
    1. Anyone know that there is an obvious something I am missing trying to get the remote to work with my MacBook?
    2. Any recommendations on a good remote for the MacBook? I need something to control presentations, mostly, either PowerPoint or Keynote.
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   Original iMac still in use.

    Hey, you're right. It works great, even as I walked around the MacBook.
    I was trying to be sensitive about not wasting anyone's time here. And I know I checked the Apple remote on PowerPoint. (Checked it again; it doesn't work.) Thought I had on Keynote. Sorry about that.
    Thanks for the reply.

  • Remote for powerpc mini?

    Do apple sell the frontrow remote/reciever as an optional extra for older macs?
    i have a powerpc g4 1.5ghz mini and wanted to know if I could get a remote for it.
    Originally I didn't think i was missing much by not having it but i recently got a macbook which of course includes frontrow and the remote and i must admit the remote is quite nice for using with itunes so was wandering if they did a remote with a reciever that plugged into the usb or something.

    No… they will never do this as a reason to upgrade to a new Mac. Apple marketing would never let them do it.

  • Remote for Zen Visio

    I am about to spend some more money and get a remote for my Vision:M.
    I am pretty sure this one is compatible with it, but I am not sure as no where does it mention that it is compatible with it.
    This one!
    I remember reading that the remote from the Zen Micro was compatible with it.
    Can someone confirm this before I try and get it shiped from Singapore to Australia.
    (It is IMPOSIBLE to get almost any creative accesories in Australia, I even went to a shop in Syndey called BlasterWorld. They are listed as a reseller on the Creative website, but they only had a couple of old Muvos and some sound cards.)
    Thanks.
    Also, has anyone in Aust. bought stuff from the Singapore store before, and was it easy to get it shipped here? Thanks.

  • Remote for iPhone - Choosing speakers

    Ever since they brought out an update for Remote for the iPhone I have been unable to change the speaker selection. Where has the option gone? It used to be under settings but I cannot find it. Am I being really dense?

    YES, you're right! Just found it, tap the screen whilst song is playing and a speakers menu pops up! Doh! Seems so simple now, sometimes when things are right in front of you.....!!
    Thanks for your help

  • Remote for ipod touch

    is there a way to use remote for ipod touch and iphone with only bluetooth?
    i'm running 3.1 os for ipod touch and i have itunes 9

    If you mean using the remote app for controlling itunes with your touch using only bluetooth, as others have said, that's a no. This might be an ignorant suggestion, but someone who knows more about it can maybe post after me. If you're connecting your macbook to the internet with an ethernet cable rather than a wifi router, can you set up a macbook as a wifi connection spot so that your ipod is connecting directly to the macbook via wifi? I would imagine you could use the remote app then.
    I also sort of thought you were asking if there was a way to control your ipod touch using a remote via bluetooth, and that's also a no, but you can use a remote with a dock connector.
