Cannot update my remote control that is USB connect ability

I have a harmony remote that is programable and update thru a USB .
I have used it in the past as recent as a month ago.
This is what I am receiving when I attempt to log on:
The update is not complete, give permission to write to the applications folder. Check that your firewall software is not blocking the update,
I am not sure what or how to "give permission to write to the Apps folder" means.
Can someone explain that to me.
I have removed the firewall and that did not help.
I recently repaired permissions as a routine maintenance last week.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Greg

Try repairing it again. At the same time, you might want to repair the disk.

Tried to update software on iphone..phone displays " connect usb to itunes" did that, nothing happening?? Still showing the usb to itunes

Connect to iTunes and restore the device.
It may be necessary to place the device in DFU mode (google it).

Help me i cannot use my remote-control.

I was using my remote-control a while ago( I think it's been only for 5 mins) , then suddenly It didn't work, how can i fix it? do i have to bring it to mac store?

I'm having remote control issues as well. It stops working, and the option to disable or enable the IR receiver disappears from the security pane of system preferences. If I start and restart my Mac several times, I can usually bring it back. I use the remote frequently for watching movies. The resetting procedure doesn't work. Anyone know how to deal with this?

Problem: iPhone touchtones cannot activate a remote control

My work involves calling special systems that are controlled using telephone tones. Once the number answers, I have to enter a series of numbers from a dial pad to log in. I purchased an iPhone 4 three days ago and did not have occasion to call one of these numbers until today. The tones from the iPhone did not work -- tried dialing in repeatedly. I then called the number from a landline and I could communicate. A colleague told me he had this same problem within certain Verizon cell sites, and it took vzw techs a long while to identify the problem fix the faulty cell site, but they eventually did. I am experiencing this problem in the 805 coverage area, specifically in Santa Paula, CA.
One other clue pointing to a fault at a cell site as the cause of this. I judst called the site using the landline and successfully logged in using the iPhone tones coming out of the iPhone speaker, so I know the phone is generating proper tones. The variable pointing to where the problem is the path (cell site) by which the tones are getting to the equipment I am trying to control.
From my colleague's email to me:
It took weeks to get to the right vzw engineer who figured it out and fixed it..
All other touch tone functions worked fine like banks and voicemail etc.
Call vzw support.. It isn't the phone,..

Is there a remote control that works with an I pod?

What is the best means for gaining the use of a remote for I pod? Docking station??? One that has a remote with good range is needed!!!

What I use and love: Netgear R6200 (no longer top of the line but gets through brick and maintains 35Mb signal at 30 ft. and is $100 less than when I bought it seems so short a time ago.
I don't (Mac Pro 1,1) run 10.9 which while I can find issues wth some Macs and wifi and with Apple routers, I would look at what you use for your Mac Pro to add wireless which might.

Updating Pioneer 111D firmware VIA external USB connection

Hi all
I have a Pioneer 111D that I would like to update it's firmware from 1.16 to 1.29(?) but since
Pioneer doesn't do any firmware programs for Macs I would like to use my new MacBook (intel)
Bootcamp and do the update with a NewerTech USB 2.0 Universal Drive Adapter (http://www.newertech.com/products/usb2_adapt.php) but I'm not sure if it can be done via USB or it
has to be an internal connection. Any help with this would be very welcomed!!!!
Thanks!!!!

I don't think usb firmware update will work. you could pull the optical and take it to a small pc shop and have them flash it for you.
or try here:

Remote control stopped working on MacBook Pro

I have two MacBokk Pros (2008 and 2011), with two remote controls that worked fine and interchangeable until about a week ago. Now both remotes work only on the older one of our computers, but not on the newer one. I have looked into the Security prefs panel, "Disable Infrared Receiver" is unchecked, "this computer will work with any available remote control" is shown underneath - everything look like it was before.
Holding "Menu" and "Fast Forward" to pair the remote produces no results after 5 seconds or more.
I also did the the "iSight test" mentioned elsewhere in this forum, the batteries in both remotes are fine and sending a signal.
That leads me to suspect there might be a problem with the infrared receiver. But is that a hardware or software issue and what should be done next, considering that I'm about 200 miles from the next Apple store?

Thank you! Yes, I've seen this troubleshooting page and followed those suggestion, that's where I also found the remote control battery test mentioned above.
Product ID: 0x8242
Vendor ID: 0x05ac (Apple Inc.)
Version: 0.16
Speed: Up to 1.5 Mb/sec
Manufacturer: Apple Computer, Inc.
Location ID: 0xfd110000 / 3
Current Available (mA): 500
Current Required (mA): 100
The only difference here is a "3" in the Location ID where your's shows a "2"
UPDATE: The SMC Reset tip worked! Thank you!!!

Remote Control System Center 2012 Configuration Manager

Hi all, first post on the forums. Was wondering if anyone was having a similar issue. We are slowly testing SCCM and I'm stuck on probably the most important feature, remote control. Whenever I "Start Control" of a workstation,
the remote control agent window shows "Connecting to Host Session" which brings up another prompt that alerts me that "The identity of the computer cannot be verified..." to which I reply "yes" to connect anyway. However
I never connect and in the remnote control agent window shows "Viewer DIconnected".
On the client itself, in the CmRcService.log file, even though it shows that "Session allowed full control" and that I'm an "authorized viewer", later on I see "Disconnecting the connection. An existing connection was forcibly
closed by the remote host. (Error: 80072746: Source Windows". One line below, the log reports "The connection has been terminated". Note I do not have a Firewall Policy enabled and I do not have any stringent virus protection
running. Currently testing on Win7 x86 machine but also happens on WinXP, Server 2008 x64 and x86, etc. Any have a resolution or idea why this is occuring? Any help and/or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

Remote Control does work with Sylvania Color TV/DVD Model 6520FDF

I cannot get the remote control to work the volume on a Sylvania Color TV/DVD Model 6520FDF TV. Can anybody help me?

Have you tried the scan mode to scan for the proper code?
TV/DVD combo units are notoriously hard to program to universal remotes. So if you did a scan and none of them worked then the likelihood is that the remote just will not work with that unit. If you have not tried a scan, here is the instructions to do so.
WHAT IF NONE OF THE CODES WORKED?
If none of the codes worked, try the following procedure. (As before, we will use the example of a TV. For other devices use the appropriate Device Key instead of the TV key in step 2 and 3.) 1. Turn on your TV.
2. Press and hold the TV key.
3. While holding down the TV key, press OK. 4. Release both keys. The Device Keys will blink twice.5. Press 9 - 2 - 2. 6. Point the remote at the TV.
7. Press PLAY.8. Press FASTFORWARD (FF). Every time you press FF the remote sends out a new power-off command to the TV. Keep pressing FF until the TV turns off. (You can press REWIND to go back.) 9. When the TV turns off, you have found the right code. Press OK to store this code. Note: There are over 300 TV and DVD codes. The most common codes are tried first, but you may still need to press over 300 times to find the right code. If you reach the end of the list of codes the entire remote will flash twice and return to normal operation. You can exit programming at any time by pressing Exit.

Error exists between keyboard and chair.

I updated the iTunes, after that when I conect to PC it say insert the SIM. I have SIM in.

Dear
Fisrtly, I would like to explain about my problem. I updated the iTunes after that, when I connect with USB. It is saying, there is no SIM card installed the iPhone you are attempting to active.
And next message says, please disconnect and insert a SIM card in the iPhone, but I tried by different SIM cards.
The slit is ok as well; I think something wrong with this iTunes I updated, because this is not my first time.
I would like you give me some information about it, what should I do?
Best Regards
J.M.E.R

Authorized reseller or not, it's a gray market phone that must have been bought in the US and shipped to Saudi Arabia. Are you sure it was an authorized iPhone reseller, or was it a general Apple reseller who is not authorized to sell iPhones? Whatever it was, they are violating their agreement with Apple, and, as the phone has FaceTime on it, they are violating KSA law.
However, the good news is that it will work if you remove the Verizon SIM and insert a local SIM - unless they phone is actually a used phone that is locked to some other former owner. But that will be obvious as soon as you try to activate it. You can check its history at: Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage

Remot Control For Digital@nywhere ATSC and Vista Don't Work Together Very Well

I have a Digital@nywhere ATSC tuner card w/remote.
On Windows XP, the remote worked ok. On Windows Vista, the remote works only some of the time.
On Windos XP, the BDA drivers and utilities on the install disk loaded fine. Not so with Vista.
On Vista, the utilities on the install disk seem to load fine, but the BDA drivers fail.
Loading the Vista Digital@nywhere utilities gets the tuner card to work, but has no drivers for the remote. Leaving me to load the utilities from the install disk, and and the BDA drivers from the Vista Digital@nywhere files. A rather tedious process, with the remote only functioning sometimes.
I have tried every trick I can think of to get the remote control and Vista to work together, to no avail. I'm stumped.
I'd rather not go out and buy a new tuner card, when the Digital@nywhere ATSC tuner card works fine on Vista. I'd just like to have a remote control that works fine too. But I don't.
I hope an answer can be found for this problem.
If I haven't been clear enough, just ask, and I'll try to explain things better.
Thanks for any help that anyone can give.

Are you using Media Center in Vista? If so, buy a Media Center remote, should work with no problems.

Apple Remote controll doesn't work

hi there.
I have read, that the Apple Remote Controll, that can be used for things like iPhoto & iTunes can also be used to controll Logic 8, starting and stopping playback ... .
Doesn't work at my system. Is there anything i have to setup? Have heared it should work by default.
thx for help

In iTunes 8:
Go into your iTunes preferences and select the Devices tab. Make sure "Look for iPhone and iPod Touch Remotes" is selected. If it already is, try clicking "Forget All Remotes"
In iTunes 7:
Go into your iTunes preferences and select the Advanced tab. Select the General tab beneath it, and make sure "Look for iPhone and iPod Touch Remotes" is selected. If it already is, try clicking "Forget All Remotes"
You also want to be sure that both devices (the computer and the iPod) are connected to the same wireless network.

What remote controls will work with the iMac 27inch.

Okay I hung the new iMac on the wall in my kitchen. Used the apple adapter I have a little apple remote control that works the dvd player fine. Of course the wireless keyboard and the wireless mouse work fine. I have an elgato tuner because this iMac is my dvr/tv does anyone have a remote that will work the iMac as a dvd and work the elgato hybrid tuner. Just trying to make this simple. Thanks

iTunes itself, that is it's built-in remote speaker function, will work only with an Airport Express. There may be other wireless speakers that have their own drivers or transmitter; someone else here may be able to make a recommendation.

Remote control suddenly stopped working

the remote control that came with my nokia 5700 XM just stopped working. in fact i haven't used it that much (something like a ten or 20 times for the 6 months i own it). the most interesting part is that i get sound with the earphones which are connected with the remote. i can't control the player but can still listen. the handsfree usage is also gone. i can hear the voice but can't speak to the mic of the remote. when i connect the remote to the phone i recognises it like the default headset. i did a factury reset of the system but it did't help. is it dead? i am waiting for suggestions. thanks.

Some nokia made remotes have a small battery inside (the one that's supplied with the N95 does) and it may have run out.
If you don't want to open the remote to check then you should take it to a nokia care point/service centre.

Best "Presenter Remote Control to use?"

Anyone have any fav's that I should look into for my Keynote 09 Presetations? I know some have the Iphone App, which I could get, but I was thinking of a remote control that that would do the basic functions, and do them well without allot of "Wi-Fi" needed.
