ATV having difficulty receiving commands from remote

My AppleTV is hooked up by HDMI to a Samsung HDTV (model code LNT2653HX/XAA). I've been having a lot of difficulty using the Apple remote with my ATV. Because the unit is in close proximity to my MacBook and Universal iPod Dock (meaning I have 3 Apple remotes lying around), I had to pair each remote to each device so there would be no interference. This did not help my issue, and even after tried unpairing the remote or changing which remote worked with which device, the problem persisted. When I press a button on the remote, the ATV rarely responds (i.e. responds to 1/20 clicks), and there has appeared no rhyme or reason to when it does or does not work.
I have noticed, however, that clicking the Apple remote will occasionally cause a light on the TV to blink as if it were receiving a command. Interestingly, when the TV is turned OFF, the AppleTV has no difficulty receiving commands (as evidenced by the white light blinking each time a command is received).
Now this may very well be an issue that can only be solved by dealing with the TV itself, but is there any recourse available otherwise?

Hi.. I'm having the same problems described, with my Apple TV and using the remote. I have the G1 model of the Apple TV, and have been using it without issue for a couple of years. Just bought a new Samsung LCD TV Series 8, 40" and soon after I attached the Apple TV I started to have issues. Now the Apple remote almost never responds. I have paired it, repaired it until I'm sick. I did a factory reset on the Apple TV.. and the remote worked just fine, until I upgraded the software on the Apple TV to get back all the functionality (iTunes Store, using my iPod-remote, etc.). The problem is the remote seems to work for a second.. then stops-freezes. I suspect it has something to do with both the TV and the software upgrade. Is it possible that the Samsung TV is sending out IR signals that swamp the room? Or that when I hit the Apple Remote, the TV replies.. and confuses the Apple TV? I moved the Apple TV as far away from the Samsung as I could.. but nothing helps. Very frustrating!!! Any ideas? Oh by the way.. I also can't get the Apple TV to pair with another remote. It stalls each time about 20% of the way.. never moving forward. The lack of a remote.. makes the Apple TV a paperweight.. sad.. because before it was one of my favorite Apple products. HELP!

My "remote" can't control my Apple TV, however apple tv still received signal from "remote" . Before that I have to press and hold the menu button, then the "remote" icon appeared on the screen.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

ITunes Says Having Difficulty Downloading Episodes From Your Feed

I'm trying to submit my podcast feed to iTunes, I am able to subscribe to my feed by going to File > Subscribe to Podcast > and pasting http://www.servextra.com/category/scrshow/feed/ in the field. iTunes then recognizes all of the episodes in my feed and I'm able to play them all with no problem.
When I try to submit this same exact feed to the iTunes Podcast Directory, I get the error message iTunes Says Having Difficulty Downloading Episodes From Your Feed. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong to cause this?

I don't know why you are having this problem. The URL of your top episode's media file is
http://traffic.libsyn.com/toddliles/12_012_-_Easy_Budgeting_in_30_Minutes_-_10.1 7.2013.mp3

The Store can by flaky about redirects, and this one has the '?' which indicates a script of some sort is in use. However, Libsyn normally know what they are doing so I wouldn't have expected them to provide a URL which didn't work. Your best bet would be to approach their Support; or Robert Walch, who works for them, posts here sometimes and may see your question.
It is just possible that the Store is having one of its hissy fits and it may be an error at their end, but certainly Libsyn should be able to advise.

I've had several problems with Access on W7, mostly me not being able to select it as all. What i'd start with (unless you really need to file mobility) is to install a SQL Server (express) and import the data there. Set up a .udl pointing to the server (which'd be the same for 7.1 and 2010) and then try.
If it still doesn't work you probably have some Race condition in your old code that has risen with the recompile. Do the old code have lots of local variables?
I avoid the obvious "do you have database connectivity installed on the 2010 machine as i assume you do".

I am having difficulty downloading tunes from iCloud to my PC. I am getting an error message 5000 'not enough access privileges' I have checked and seem to have full access. Help appreciated!

I am having difficulty downloading purchased tunes in iCloud to my PC. I get error code 5000 and a message "not enough access priviledges" I have checked this out and seem to have full rights. I could download tunes before they put them on iCloud. Any help appreciated.

This refers to permissions on your computer which must have been changed. Start by using Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then do the following:
Reset User Permissions and ACLs in Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
From the Utilities menu select Terminal. At the Terminal prompt enter: resetpassword. Press RETURN. When the window opens select your startup drive where it says "Select the volume containing the user account:" At the bottom of the window you will see, "Reset Home folder permissions and ACLs." Click on the Reset button.

Hello Charles,
I would be concerned too if my MacBook Prowas running slowly. I found a couple of articles I recommend to help isolate and troubleshoot this issue.
I recommend reviewing this article first for possible causes of the slowness:
OS X Mavericks: If your Mac runs slowly
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13895
You can further isolate the issue by determining if it is only happening in your user account or if it is happening system-wide:

Anyone else having trouble receiving texts from other iphone users?

My daughter has an iphone 4S and just called from college, she can't receive texts from other iphone users anymore. Worked fine until yesterday. She can receive texts from me, but I have a droid. Any idea if this is a Verizon problem or something wrong with her phone?

She turned imessage off, then turned it back on again and now it seems to be fine. Not sure what she did, but she says she's ok now.

Having problems "receiving" email from a friend.

For the past month, I have not been able to receive emails sent to me by a friend. My email address is the same. His address is the same. Nothing has changed. He has a yahoo account. He does not get any indication, or message his email bounced, or failed to deliver. Neither do I. It just doesn't arrive. I am able to send emails to his address. I have been receiving emails from his address for years. Just stopped working. I'm stumped. Any ideas?

i receive test emails to myself just fine. I did discover today that another email my friend sent went to my mobileme junk folder. Another test email he sent went to junk folder on my mac. Previously, I didn't see his emails in my junk folder at all, but they could have been. How do I make sure his email address isn't blocked or marked as junk? Is it as simple as making an entry into my address/contact book? Obviously, I should have already done this, but I haven't done that. Thanks for your response.

TS3274 Hi, have just got new iPad 3 and am having difficulty receiving FaceTime calls from husbands iPhone 4s. IPad wasn't ringing at all and the iPhone would get a message saying iPad was unavailable for FaceTime yet we were using same Internet connectio

Hi,
Just got the iPad 3 which is our first and we were messing around with FaceTime between this and our iPhone 4s. The problem was we can FaceTime the mobile but we kept getting a message flag that the iPad wasn't available.
After much deliberation and googling we have managed to get the iPad to at least ring when we FaceTime it from the iPhone but the new problem is it rings for half a second giving no one a chane to answer.
Can anyone suggest anything else?
So far we have checked in setting that all sounds are enabled, put slide switch to mute then flicked the mute button up and down on the side of the iPad above the volume and also changed the DNS numbers on both mobile devices to ensure they sync but I am still having the same problem.
All answers greatly appreciated

Disabling the MBP's ability to receive signals from remote control?

I own an AppleTV, my roomate uses a Macbook and I have the Macbook Pro, and they all use the same remote control and signal. Anytime we use the remote for the AppleTV it sends our notebooks into Front Row. Is there anyway to disable the mac's ability to receive the signal from the remotes?
Thanks.

Hi,
What you need to do is pair each Apple Remote so that it's only recognised by the Mac it's paired with. The following Apple KB Documents will guide you on how to achieve this:
*Pairing and Unpairing the Apple Remote with Apple TV*
