Apple TV Is Not Reacting Properly To My Remote

Howdy Folks!
So since yesterday my Apple TV is not reacting properly to my remote. Now I click on the remote button and the light switches from that pure white light on the front to a golden light. So it is receiving a signal from the remote.
Only nothing happens. The only reaction from the Apple TV I get is the color switch. Is there anything I can do? Has anyone heard of this before? It is especially frustrating as there isn't another input so I can't poke around at the settings.
Any help or direction would be appreciated!

Your remote has been disabled.
Follow the steps provided in this Apple article.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304977
Here are the steps from the article:
To re-enable the remote:
1) Unpair the remote by holding down the Previous/Rewind and Menu buttons for 6 seconds (this can be done using any Apple remote).
2) Then pair the remote by simultaneously holding down the Next/Fast-Forward and Menu buttons for 6 seconds.

    To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
    In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
    Enter the email address you want to use, then  click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that  address.
    Open the  email  from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
    When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
    After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the stores and services that you use with your  Apple ID.

  • I am trying to figure out why my Apple ID is not working properly.

    So at first i was trying to install some new apps from the app store on my iphone 4. And a message box kept popping up saying i needed to "agree to itunes terms of use" and so i would click on it so that i could agree and there was a little box that said "send to email" so i tried clicking on it and nothing would pop up, it was as if it wasnt even a button. So i tried scrolling all the way to page 52 and there was no button that said "agree" or anything like that. So just now i created a new apple ID and i deleted my old icould account and then i signed in the apple store with my new apple ID and password. So then i proceeded to install an app from the itunes store so i typed in my new ID and password and then a little message box popped up saying "This Apple ID has not yet been used in the Itunes store" so i click "review" and it says to choose my country and click next so i click United States and i scroll down but theres no "next" button. like its just blank.
    can someone please help me...

    Go To:  Settings > General > Usage
    This page lists all of the apps that are on your phone,and shows you how much space each is using.  It shows 10 apps, and at the bottom of the list is an option to "Show all Apps."  In addition, they are listed in order of the amount of storage space they are using.
    If you select each individual app by clicking on the ">" beside it, the next page shows the info for just that app, including the name, version, App size, and amount of storage space used by Documents and Data associated with it.  You also have the option there to Delete the App.

  • Blackberry curve 8520 buttons not reacting properly

    I have just bought a blackberry curve 8520, I have put in my sim card,everything goes fine, but the keyboard was not reacting,only the roller in the centre, now i have seen the posts about taking it out and cleaning it,but I just cannot get it out, the more i try the more it looks like it is getting damaged. But anyway after fiddling around with it. I discovered if I hold the button on the left side of the phone(the voice activation button) then press the back button etc i can control it, and get to the different screens, but obviously this is not ideal. Does any one know how i can sort this problem out? I have gone to options and checked if it has been changed to do this on the keyboard options and it has not, the option is still set to voice dialing. Help Please!!!!!

    Hey ruang007,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    From what you have described this sounds like a hardware issue, I would suggest contacting your point of sale to review warranty and repair options.
    Let me know if you have any questions.
    Thanks.

  • Apple Software Updates not working properly

    Since I installed Yosemite OS X10.10 and then OS X10.10.1 I am having problems using Apple Updates. Some items install (usually not Apple products) other show up on the Items to Install list and never leave, although they also show up in the "Installed in the last 30days". These items quickly install or at least they say they are installed but they do not properly install and even though my computer shows that Safari 8.0.2 is installed, I am still running Safari 8.0. This is still going on and includes the most recent Security Update ver 1.0, Safari 8.0.2.  I was able to of to the apple web-site and download HP Printer Software Update 3.0 and Digital Raw Compatibility Update ver 6.02 which were acting in the same manner as the Apple software and I think they updated from the direct download but I can't be sure because I don't know where these files lives. Obviously there is a corrupted file in the Updates software or somehow I there are read/write, plist or some other issues going on. I really don't know where to go or what to do with this issue. Even the Apple certified tech who I had look at this and other problems said it was out of his league.

  • I updated to Lion and now the Search function in Apple Mail is not working properly

    Even though the "All" option is selected, when I type a string in the Mail spotlight search box, the string is not found.  But I know for a fact the string is in an email and I've manually found the email (in a folder) and copied and pasted it into the search box.  Mail is still not able to find it.
    I have also checked to make sure that "Message contains" is the option in the search box.  I've noticed that in some previous searches there has been a little arrow dropdown option next to the magnifying glass icon.  But that arrow is not showing up consistently...and is not showing up now.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Ok...here's the steps to fix this as efficiently as possible.  I have a whole bunch of mailboxes under "On My Mac" and they have a bunch of mailboxes nested in them.  I get my messages into Apple Mail via IMAP.  (I don't know if this matters.)  The steps below assume you have a similar setup.
    1.  Hold the Option key down and click the dropdown arrow next to each mailbox that has one.  This will cause all nested mailboxes below it to appear.
    2.  Go to the top of the list of mailboxes under "On My Mac" and highlight the first mailbox.  Then hold the Shift key down and highlight the last mailbox in the list.  This will cause all of the mailboxes and nested mailboxes to be highlighted.
    3.  From the menu, select "Mailbox --> Rebuild" and the rebuild process will start.
    4.  Watch the top of the mail screen to see the message count change as the mailboxes are being rebuilt.  Wait until the activity stops before doing the next step.
    5.  As the mailboxes were rebuilt, many messages were reset as "Unread" even though every message was previously "Read."  Make sure the mailboxes you want to affect are still highlighted.  Right-click and select "Mark All Messages Read."
    That fixed the problem for me.

  • 2 year old 30" Cinama HD Apple display, brightness not adjusting properly..

  • Why is the built-in Apple dictionary in IOS7 not working properly?

    I've updated the system of my iPhone 4s to IOS 7.0 and I noticed there is a big change in the built-in dictionary. I touched the" manage" button and downloaded several dictionaries, however, I came across an issue that the Apple dictionary is not working properly. The definitions are just not there. The Oxford dictionaries are fine, but I miss the buitl-in Apple dictionary like the one in IOS6. Does anyone have the same issue?

    I had constantly wondered about the same problem and today I've finally figured it out.
    I thought 'Apple dictionary' had to be the same simple, built-in one in previous iOS versions,
    but it's actually dictionary for Apple-related terms only, I guess.
    Kinda like Apple Encyclopedia?
    Just try typing Mac and something and that 'Apple dictionary' will give you the definition of Mac, haha.
    Wish I had thought of this earlier then I wouldn't have been this disappointed LOL

  • IMovie not working properly

    I've been using iMovie for a little while, but recently it hasn't been working properly - many of the buttons that should be there have disappeared, and the whole program is not reacting properly. To see exactly what I mean, I took a pic and it's at http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o177/VaatiKaiba/Image015.jpg (apologies for the bad quality) .
    This doesn't seem to be related to an update or anything I've done it, it just seemed to happen once when I opened the program, and hasn't worked properly since. Interesting sidenote - I tried to take a picture with Grab, but when I did that it showed all the buttons there as per norm.
    Does anyone know how to fix this without having to reinstall the entirety of iLife?

    +how do these things become corrupted in the first place?+
    "Things happen!" However, you can try to prevent problems in the future by doing some regular maintenance tasks on your computer.
    In particular, do a 'repair permissions' before and after every download.
    Delete the plist file of any app that is behaving strangely.
    Delete cache files that you no longer need.
    Keep at least 25 GB free space on your computer to run your programs.

  • HT204400 My Apple TV is not turning on

    My Apple TV is not turning on. My remote is not out of batterie and is working fine. How can I turn it on?

    Unplug the unit from the power and plug it back in. If the unit isn't going to light up, the unit may be dead... but try that first.

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.
