How to "remove" a remote control?

How can I make my MB forget a remote control for good?
Thank you very much!
Peter

Ok ok let's be civil here.
What I suspect you will have to do is pair the remote to the Mac first, preferably in a second room.
Then on the ATV complete the pairing process. If there is already a remote paired then if I recall correctly it should allow you through the menu to unpair it. Hopefully while pairing the 2nd remote to the TV the Mac will not see it. It may even be better to have the Mac completely off while pairing to the ATV so there is no way it can see the signal.
That's my best guess. I am running 10.8 and the options on the computer end seem to be removed. I don't think Apple is even including remotes with new desktops anymore.
I wish you the best of luck. Getting the remotes paired is a big PITA that I went through once. I think I finally gave up.

How do I Audit Remote Control?

A requirement of us implementing SCCM Remote Control, is that were able to report on what/when technicians are connecting to client systems. Upon investigating the canned reports in SCCM, I've found 3 reports that do some of this, specifically
the 3 under "Status Messages - Audit";
- All audit messages for a specific user
- Remote Control - All computers remote controlled by a specific user
- Remote Control - All remote control information
1) Is there any more reports that may be useful? If so please specify.
2) These reports also seem to be missing some information about connections that I made during testing. How does this auditing/report process work? and how would I troubleshoot whether the auditing was working correctly?
3) Is it possible to audit/report on connections made from the standalone Remote Control Viewer tool?
Thanks,
Bill

I've used those those reports and haven't noticed missing information. I don't keep track of every session...
Perhaps were you using the remote control viewer utility directly instead of using the Admin console?
As for question 3, it is normal. If you launch the remote viewer executable directly (not from the admin console), those sessions are not auditable. There are many threads about this... here's one:

How to use the remote control in MediaSource Audio Play

Hello,
I bought myself the Creative X-Fi Elite Pro.
I found out that I only can use the remote control in Media Center of the software.
Now I want to use it in the Creative Audio Player whicht was also in the Box.
Is there a way?

Yes there is. I suggest trolling these boards for the 3rd party remote solutions that will free you to use the remote in ANY application like Winamp, Notepad, Windows Media Player, etc.
Just my two opinionated cents...

As for the remote issue, what version of OS X are you using?
With the latest version of Mountain Lion 10.8.2 you will find the remote control setting in Preferences/Sharing/Privacy then click the Advanced button at the bottom. Check "Disable remote control infrared receiver" or pair a different Apple remote to prevent the ATV's remote from controlling the computer.

Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

Lenovo AIO C440 - not working infrared remote control

Hello,
is there any hint how to get infrared remote control working for a new C440 model? Tomorrow I will try to measure and/or replace batteries which could be bad. For now it is totally not working.
Another question: the remote should work only within AverMedia TV app or in the whole Windows 8?
Regards,
Zdenek

hi bohdik,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
The IR Windows Media Center remote control is for use with C440 models with optional TV tuner. If you have this model, make sure the TV Tuner driver and the ITE CIR Driver from the lenovo support site are installed under Device Manager (press Windows Key+R then type devmgmt.msc) then follow the Set up a TV signal in Windows Media Center. guide.
Note:
You must have Windows 8 PRO to enable Windows Media Center
See this articles in reference:

Now, how do I exlude navigation controls in the HTMl export in Keynote

In older version of Keynote there was an option when exporting to HTML that was "Include navigation controls". If I unchecked they were gone. Now that option is gone and I can't figure out how to remove the Navigation controls from the bottom of the bottom of the webpage. I tried modifying the "hud" div in the KeynoteDHTMLPlayer.css file as other forum posts suggest, but it seems to do nothing. I really need that thing gone. HELP!

There are no navigation controls in HTML exportfrom Keynote 6.2.
If a video is in the presentation, QuickTime controls will show when the cursor is on top of the video.

How do I remote control a user in remote desktop services in Windows Server 2012?

Hello,
we currently operate in a 2008 R2 environment with the majority of clients connecting to our terminal servers. We use the remote control feature in terminal services manager to connect to a users session when a user phones our helpdesk with
a question / issue.
Just today I've installed 2012 server on a hyper-v virtual machine to have a play with it. I've installed the Remote Desktop Services and noticed this remote control feature is gone. I can still log off or send a message to a user, but I can
no longer remote control their session.
I've seen one or two other posts stating this feature has been removed completely.
So, a couple of questions:
1. How on earth do I "shadow" or connect to a users session now?
2. If I have to go third party to get this functionality back, what's the best software on the market for this and does it support remote connecting of users who have their RDP session span multiple monitors? (2008 R2 doesn't)
3. Will Microsoft ever bring this feature back? as at this stage I doubt we would move to 2012. This is the one feature that is crucial to the day-to-day running of our helpdesk.
Cheers.

A large percentage of our IT support business is through remote management. Most of our large enterprise customers are Terminal Server environment (now called Remote Desktop - why does Microsoft have to change EVERYTHING - how would they feel if I changed
the colour of the sky from blue to red just because I could?).
Last week, after much expense to the customer (and realising that there WOULD be some cosmetic headaches to contend with Server Management) we installed a new "Remote Desktop Server" for them and shifting them from 2003 - a big leap so we discovered.
During deployment it came as a HORRIFIC surprise that we could not remote control user's sessions!
Yes, we ARE to blame for not fully realising the cock-up Microsoft has made for us. We should have fully researched every detail of what changes they made and what they have robbed us of.
Firstly, the removal of the ability to fully manage user's sessions came as a HUGE blow!
The remaining multiple issues that followed (including the hugely cumbersome and SLOW way of accessing user's sessions and the false information that the console was reporting users logged in when they had already logged out) suddenly resulted in us decommissioning
the new 2012 installation in favour of a 2008 R2 installation.
Some may ask; Why not use "Third Party" apps to counteract the issue? Firstly; why spend MORE and why use a third party app that "is as" cumbersome to use just because of a freaking feature that Microsoft deemed a "security risk" - for G.D sake!
We have now been directed by management to convince customers that a move to 2012 is NOT recommended - good choice boss, I love you!
The question is; will Microsoft re-implement this feature and fix Server Management performance/accessibility in a future release before 2008 R2 is no longer available? Probably not - it looks like their stubbornness to forge ahead with their craze mind-set
of transforming their products into something that is now annoying millions (including their bloody push towards everything-cloud which NONE of our customers want anything to do with).
Microsoft! Get us back on to your side and take a step back, take a deep breath and listen to consumers!

How do I disable the headphone jack remote controls on my iMac?

HI all,
I've got an early 2009 iMac 24". I use it with an older pair of Logitech 2.1 speakers with no inline remote controls. The headphone jack itself or the 1/8" male connection is loose because the iMac will randomly launch/play/pause iTunes. I'm 100% certain this has to do with the headphone jack connection. I want to disable that remote functionality in OSX while still using my speakers, but I haven't found any documentation or information on how to do it.
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

You need to get the busted plug out of the headphone jack. Because there is a micro switch in-side the headphone jack that tells the MIDI setup to only send the sound out to the headphone jack.
Go to > Removing a broken headphone plug - Google Search or take it to your local AASP for service.
