Cannot add iPhone 3.0 remote app (1.3)

I have two Apple Tv and can't get either one to connect to my iPhone's remote app version 1.3.
I can input the code but nothing happens when I click on done. Both are running version 2.4 and the iPhone is OS 3.0 with remote version 1.3.
I can connect and control my iTunes' library via my iPhone with no problem.
I've shutdown my Mac Pro and one of the ATVs then tried adding the remote to one at a time and still will not work. I've rebooted the iPhone, and both ATVs. Everything works with the exception of adding the iPhone a remote.
I don't believe this is a network issue since everything else works fine.

yes you CAN add the iTunes library but you don't want to... as you can see it doesn't work.
you add the appleTV library to remote control the appleTV..
you add the iTunes Library to remote control iTunes on your computer (i.e. if you were doing airTunes to say an airport express or appleTV and you wanted to choose media to play next, previous etc without having to be in front of your computer.. it lets you do it from the iPod Touch/iPhone.
you want to add the appleTV Library to control the appleTV. trust me.. i've been using the remote app for months now.. that's how it works. you can see and play anything that's available to play on the appleTV synced or streamed.. it's not just the stuff that's physically on there.

Cannot add itunes lib to remote app on iPad

When trying to add an itunes lib using the Remote app on my iPad (2) a Passcode is displayed and the ipad2 appears under the Devices list in iTunes; entering the code there does not connect... checked all setups. Any ideas why this does not work?
Rem: I do not want to use HomeSharing.

I too have this problem and made it worse. Under Mavericks and iOS7 everything set up very easily and worked beautifully like Apple stuff usually does. Then a couple of weeks ago I took the dive and updated to Yosemite, iTunes 12 and iOS8 and then I would occasionally lose connection with my iTunes library as described by the second poster. Very aggravating. So I made a bigger mistake and deleted the library from my iPad Remote app and whenever I started it up again it would say 'Add a device'. I clicked and a randomly generated 4 digit number appears with the exact instructions: 'To add an iTunes library, open iTunes on your computer and choose Remote from the tab bar'. I went to iTunes and searched EVERYWHERE for this Remote tab bar and could not find it. I then went to iTunes Preferences: Devices and clicked the button 'Forget All Remotes' thinking this may reset something in iTunes and make the Remote tab appear somehow to start from scratch. Wrong! Now there is absolutely no connection between the Remote app on my devices and iTunes on my computer.
Can anyone point me to this Remote tab in iTunes?? If I can find that then I think I should be able to fix this.
Geez, talk about effing up what should be (and was) a very simple app.

Connecting my iPhone using the remote app.

I am trying to connect my iPhone using the remote app, nothing seems to work. I have been told to go to Preferences > Devices and allow iTunes to search for iPhone ect but there isn't this option when I go there?

You do not have to dock your iPhone to use an iOS remote app to control your Mac.
There are both Wifi and Bluetooth style iOS remote apps for both iPhone/iPod and iPad.
Apple makes the one you are using. I believe that Apple's app can use both WiFi and Bluetooth.
I use a very exceptional Wifi remote app on iOS that is called Rowmote Pro.
This app has a really good feature set, plus you can control other aspects of your Mac with it.

HT202788 iPhone 4 cannot control Apple TV via remote App? this is bullying by Apple!!

Looks like I can't control latest Apple TV via the Remote App on an iPhone 4 running iOS 7 - why?... surely this has nothing to do with hardware capabilities and everything to do with Apple's bullying into forcing people to necessarily update their devices. I hope that I am missing something but it all worked fine and now ..!

The confusion between different passwords due to Mobile Me and iCloud plus the complexities of Home Sharing and the frustration of using an increasingly outdated iPhone4 with the sometimes challenging Remote App and a brand new iMAC have proved to be a lethal combination.
I resolved the issue by resetting the Apple TV and the Remote App, making sure I keep things simple by only using the iCloud account ... hope this keeps me out of trouble for a while.

IPad cannot find Apple TV (via 'remote' app)

I have a MacBook, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. I have remote on my iPhone and both the library from my MacBook and ATV are on here.
I have downloaded Remote for the iPad, however it will only find my MacBook library. I have tried turning home sharing off and then back on again and have called Apple who advised to delete the app, reset and then download it and start again. Tried this without success.
I have looked at all the options under settings in the ATV menu and under 'remotes' it has my iPhone listed but i cannot add another.
HELP!

I assume that you have added the library on the iPad so this so please forgive me if you have ...
I don't have ATV. But I do have two iTunes libraries from two different computers available on my iPad. Can I assume that you have added the ATV by this method on your iPad?
When you launch the app, tap on the one library you have, do you get the option to add another library by then tapping on the settings gear in the upper right corner? Does that option even come up for you? Or, if you are in the one library that you have, can you tap on the rectangles in the upper left corner to take you to the screen with the gear setting?
Like I said, apologies if you have done this on your iPad.

Apple TV2 Just Disappeared from Remote app on iPad and iPhone after latest Remote app update

I Have used Remote app on my iPad and iPhones to control my ATV1, ATV2, and ATV3 for years. After the latest Remote app update ATV2 has disappeared from tRemote, and I can no longer find a way to connect it. Any advice about this?

Brilliant. Restarting did the job, and all is well. Since I have recommended this to others with other ATV problems, I'm a bit embarrassed that I didn't try it myself at the outset, and would probably have come around to trying it later, but you saved me some time. Thanks.

HT1947 I lost my apple tv remote. How can I set up the use of my iphone with the remote app?

I lost my apple tv remote. How can I set up the use of my iphone remote app without it?

The remote app would require home sharing to be enabled and both to be on the same network. If that's not the case then you will need a new remote

Cannot see iphone texts on Message app anymore.

I am missing texts because they only seem to be going to the Message app (on my MacBook), and not to the iphone. It did not used to be this way. Please help. I don't know why it suddenly changed. Could it have something to do with my Notification Center settings?

I Just got my iPad last week. I downloaded some games that were on my iPhone and then I had an issue yesterday where the App Store would just pull up a blank white screen. I restored my iPad and now it works but the search feature for iPhone games no longer works. Is this b/c I updated to iOS 6?? I downloaded the games originally before the update but now that its updated, I can't search for those games again?? It's frustrating and tech support is clueless.

How to add iPhone folios to iPad app in iTunes?

My ipad app is in the itunes store.
I have now built separate folios for the iphone 3/4 and iphone 5. The folio names are identical to the iPad app. I need to update the app to make these iphone folios available for download in iTunes app store. I have not "published" the iPhone folios in the DPS Folio Producer yet.
Once I publish the iPhone folios in the Folio Producer, are they going to available in the App Store or do I also have to update/create a new multi-folio app with App Builder (selecting iPad and iPhone but using the same original app name/id) for them to be available to iPhone users?
Not quite sure how this all works. I've read this:
http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/create-folio-renditions.html
But still don't quite understand the iTunes part of it, and don't want to do this, wait a week for the app to be approved in iTunes, only to find out the iphone apps aren't there.
Thanks!

Did you set up the original app as both iPad and iPhone?
If so you just need to publish your iphone folio's and they will appear in your app when viewed on an iPhone.
If you didn't set it up as both in the first place, you will have to start again and do an Apple update
Hope that helps a bit

I am not allowed to download LR, is there any particularly reason for this? - I cannot add it to the CC app nor can i download it... ?

When trying to DL light room CC to my app, the DL simply goes idle. It never turns up in the app centre and when searching for it, there is no results either... what to do, what to do? :-)

So you’ve never had any version of LR installed on your computer, before? What OS are you running?
What CC Licnese have you purchased?

Click on Lr
Click on the blue Download (or maybe Download Trial) button.

Remote App cannot control Radio – Continuously displays loading message

Been having this problem for quite a while and no one on the internet seems to know how to fix it. Here are the exact steps:
1. Connect to Macbook Pro itunes from ipad 2 or iphone 4 using Remote App.
2. Connection is established and can control local library, volume, start, stop... etc..
3. Try to click on the "Radio" tab in the side bar... right panel displays "Loading..." messaging.
4. iTunes on Macbook Pro appears to refresh the listing of radio stations and they are displayed within itunes
5. iPad or iPhone remote app continues to display the "Loading..." graphic and never actually loads the radio station listing
Result:
Radio cannot be controlled remotely by the remote app.
Additional notes:
If you start a radio station from the iTunes app from the computer itself, you can then stop and start it from remote, but you can never control the listing/look for other radio stations, etc.
Is anyone else having this problem? Seems like a huge bug and I'm curious if anyone has found a solution.
Thanks,
Alex

Also having a similar problem. Maybe what I've tried will help, possibly not though as I'm still searching for a solution too.
Have Remote App on iPhone 4S to control Apple TV (ver3) which it does fine regarding playlists on iTunes (on Win PC), but doesn't regarding iTunes Radio. Curiously, Apple TV has an iTunes Radio app within it's menu, but it can only be controlled (apparently) with the Apple TV remote (not the iPhone Remote App), AND you'll need Apple TV connected to a TV monitor to see what's happening...you can't see it from the Remote App on the iPhone. I've digressed a bit, sorry. What I noticed on the Remote App is when you click on your iTunes library and then click on the "More" option (bottom right) it actually has a listing for Radio. If you click on Radio the genre list comes up then you can select a station. The problem is that the station never plays.
In another problem post someone suggested creating an iTunes Radio playlist within your iTunes library and then dragging individual radio stations to it, just like you would any other music. When I tried that, the Remote App can "see" this playlist through your library, but similar to the above, the station never plays once you select it. Note: The other post suggests that this allows the Remote App to play your radio stations, but I never got it to work.
So, like all above, I'm stuck as well. Very strange that the Remote App can "see" the Radio stations via my two methods above, but is not able to make them "play".

ITunes stops playing and cannot connect to Remote app whenever the computer display turns off??

I have a Windows system with iTunes, and an iPhone with the Remote app installed, through which I use to play music on iTunes. Until recently iTunes would play regardless of whether my monitor was on or not, and I could connect to iTunes with the Remote app regardless of the monitor state. Now, however, after updating both iTunes and Remote with the new versions that came out around the time of the iPhone 4S release, whenever my computer turns off my monitor, iTunes stops playing at the end of the current song and the Remote app cannot find iTunes. This is not a system sleep state, I just have the power options set to turn off the monitor after 15 minutes of inactivity. Sleep and hibernate are disabled on the system and always have been, expressly for the purpose of allowing iTunes playback via Remote. If I jiggle the mouse and the system turns the monitor back on then I can manually reenable playback, and Remote can connect to iTunes again. I can't find any setting in Preferences that would control this. How do I fix this? Thanks.

I'm so glad someone else is having this problem. I am in exactly the same situation!
1. Windows Vista
2. Upgraded iTunes to 10.5 and upgraded remote with iOS 5
3. My computer has never been set to sleep, but the monitor turns off after 20 mins.
4. If the monitor goes to sleep, itunes stops streaming music and Remote can't connect to it
5. If I change my monitor off time to 1 hour, then in 1 hour itunes will stop streaming - it is ABSOLUTELY connected to the monitor sleeping. Almost like iTunes can't connect to the network the the monitor is off.
Please help! I have been using remote for a year and this didn't happen until I upgraded to iTunes 10.5.
