A lost my remote control for apple tv. I want to use my phone as a remote but the applications can' pair with the Apple TV device , how can I pair them without remote?

Setup for remote app: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1947
Specifically:
Set up Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation)
On Apple TV, select Settings from the main menu.
Select General > Remotes > Remote App. If Home Sharing isn't set up on your Apple TV, you should turn it on.
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation) uses Home Sharing to stream content from your iTunes library on your computer to your HDTV.  If  you connect your Apple TV to your iTunes library using  Home  Sharing, you can use Remote to browse and play content from any  iTunes library in the Computers   section of your Apple TV. You can also  use Remote to select  between available speakers to enhance  your  audio and video experience.

  • How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening.

    How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening. I don't want to use my iPad to take the video...too large/bulky. And I WON'T have a computer with me...I purchased the iPad to take with me so I could use the RDC to my home computer and avoid taking my computer at all. Is this possible?

    here is a cheaper solution than camera kit and a lot easier if you have WIFI available.
    I use the PhotoSync APP (I think its a $1.99) will transfer videos and photos over WIFI to any other IOS device or even PC/MAC. Great app since I like doing video and photos on my IPHONE and transfer to IPAD2 without synching through computer or doing cloud based storage.
    You can even send photos/videos from your MAC/PC to your IOS devices that way too. Makes it so much easier.
    Here is the link;

  • HT4061 i had my ipad stolen on monday. I set it to remote wipe when next switched on. It came on yesterday and was wiped, but it did not tell me its last location. How can I find this out.

    i had my ipad stolen. I set it to remote wipe when next switched on. It came on yesterday and was wiped, but it did not tell me its last location. How can I find this out.

    I beive that its too late now if the iPad has been wiped. The means of communicating with the device has been reset so there's no talking to it now.

    when i try to sign in itunes tells me my apple id has not been used before and to review account but get directed to a set up apple id page.  any ideas why please

    Could it be that you are using your account on more than 10 devices? Or that more than 10 devices are still connected to your account?

  • Firewall software & using a remote control for AirTunes?

    I recently turned on the built-in firewall on my MacBook Pro. Ever since doing so, every time a run iTunes, get the following message:
    Your computer is using firewall software that prevents
    you from using a remote control for AirTunes.
    To use a remote control for AirTunes, open System Preferences, click
    Sharing, then click Firewall, and select "iTunes Music Sharing."
    I always tell it to "Ignore" and I am able to play music through my AirPort Express without any trouble. What is the "remote control" to which this message is referring? I have searched Apple's support pages and this forum without any luck. I thought that opening the "iTunes Music Sharing" port in the firewall would allow other people on my local network to see my music if I was sharing it, which I am not. I don't see what this has to do with a remote control.
    Thank you for any info you can provide.

    Hi,
    there is no remote control for AirPortExpress or Air Tunes. Maybe we will see something like this in the futue, who knows.
    As AirTunes uses streaming, it probabely needs the same port open as Music Sharing. Because shared music is streamed too.

    This was solved by simply allowing "iTunes Music Sharing" in the Firewall tab of the Sharing preference pane.

  • Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?

    Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?
    Thanks!

    It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.

  • Want to buy slim remote control for Satellite A500-17X

    Where can I buy a slim size remote control for my Satellite A500-17x?

    Is your Satellite designed to work with remote control?
    I ask this because it is not known to me that you can use remote control as additional option for notebooks.
    Either is notebook delivered with remote control or certain model is not designed for it.
    Have you checked notebook specification?

    Hi , and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    And sorry to report that OSX is more Widows like than ever, but….
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up. You can't use the FIndMyiPhone app  on the iPod since the app requires iOS 7
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • HT204492 If you're using the paired remote and the Apple TV status light flashes white, the problem isn't with the remote.

    If you’re using the paired remote and the Apple TV status light flashes white, the problem isn’t with the remote.
    Then what is the problem since I have troubleshoot my remote, it is working but cannot do anything on apple TV?

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
