HT1947 iPhone 5 remote control to ipad 2

I'm looking for an app to use my iPhone 5 as a remote control to the ipad 2. I have netflix on the ipad plugged into the tv and would like to control it from my iPhone. Does any app exist?

Thank you very much for your help MetaSolaray; this is most helpful ... I have followed your advice and was able to establish the following:
My kids can send messages to my iPad via iMessage, and they receive messages sent from my iPad ... so, all ok with respect to Apple devices in Canada!
It now has become apparent that messages sent by my wife from South Africa to my kids' iPhones are received randomly (i.e. not consistently), and still not delivering at all to my iPad.  What is interesting is that my wife is able to txt my eldest's Blackberry perfectly.  Does this mean that it is an iMessage/iDevice to iDevice issue?
My wife has not yet been able to get to a WiFi location, so all texts have been sent via cellular (data roaming is turned off on her iPhone).  We are hoping that soon she will be able to get to a location where she can hop onto a wireless network to test this further; but, I have to say, I find this highly frustrating as txt (pre-iMessage) seemed so reliable.  I will keep you posted ...
I really appreciate your kind assistance!

  • Is there a way to remotely control my iPad 2 using my iPhone?

    I use my iPad in my car to entertain my child while driving and I would like to know if there is a way to change the movie he is watching (in the backseat) using my iPhone while I am sitting in the front seat?  I think it would be great if I don't have to physically remove the iPad from its headrest mount to change to a different show.

    A google search produced nothing in the App Store which will let your iPhone remotely control an iPad's video play.

  • Hi! I would like to remote control my iPad from my Windows PC. Is that possible?

    Hi! I would like to remote control my iPad (my sister has borrowed it and is in another city!) from my Windows PC OR from another iPad I use at home.
    Is that possible?

    TeamViewer allows you to control a PC or Mac from an iPad, not to control an iPad from another device. You can, as I said, push settings, do some reporting, transfer documents, and some other administration functions:

    but again, remote control of an iOS device is not possible.

  • Remote control of iPad from computer or another iPad

    Hello!
    Dear all,
    I'm trying to find an application that wiil allow me to control an iPad (3,4) remotely from my Windows computer or from another iPad.
    I know there are plenty of apps doing the opposite (e.g. control your computer using the iPad, - teamviewer etc) but I cannot find an application doing the same job the other way. I need it for company reasons, because we have many customers using iPads with our applications installed on them.
    Please let me know if something like this exists. I am for Greece so i;m talking for the local App Store.
    Thank you,
    panos_mc

    Has anybody heard anything about an app called SOTI MobiControl?
    It says that with this software installed you can control your iPad  from your computer desktop.
    Thank you,

  • Remote control of ipad by hand movements

    I think iPad can be remote controlled by hand movements and this is especially necessary in case when you put it on the table and want to change the page of the ebook or want to shift to another song. In such cases, you don't want to handle the iPad, just lazilyyou may  want to control it by hand gestures or just say, by your voice. Such control can be made by an app, I think.

    Hi John, I don't suppose you got any further with your ipad remote control issue. I'm in a similar situation with an elderly relative, and wondered if Mobile Me might help? We're in the process of setting up an iPad2 from our own iTunes account (might be a different scenario to yours if your dad has his own iTunes a/c?)  and as yet don't know if we can actually do what we would like to do... ie. update apps remotely when required, download software for them. I know it's a major hand holding exercise, but at present they're out of internet loop completely and miss out so much, on things like, research/browsing,  on-line offers, maps to get places, e-mail etc. And in most cases once these things are set up, interconnectivity is one button push away. So if you have any advice or pointers, they would be very much appreciated.
    Also this is not on wifi, as getting broadband for someone else is another story, so it's planned just to be 3G on '3' for now. facetime would be good but don't think the 3G connection would even let you near that, and also I have no idea how much data that would eat up.

  • Does the iPhone Remote control a Mac mini in the same way as ATV?

    My ATV1 has packed in.
    Rather than having my MBP switched on just to listen to music through a new ATV to my hifi I am thinking of using a Mac Mini in the same way as ATV1.
    Does the iPhone Remote work with the Mini the same way as it does with the ATV or do you need to use a mouse and switch on the screen?

    If intending to use the Mini s a home theater system,
    you may want to consider getting Rowmote or Rowmote Pro
    app for the iPhone and the companion app for the Mac.
    Not only will you get Apple Remote functionality, but
    you will also get trackpad and keyboard functionality
    as well.  This will make it even easier to navigate the
    Mini on the TV.

  • IPhone remote app disconnects, iPad does not

    Environment Info
    Windows 7 64-bit
    iTunes 12.1.2.27
    Latest update on iPhone and iPad
    Remote app
    Single network, single wireless access point
    I have home sharing turned on in iTunes, I play my music throughout my entire house from my PC and control via the remote app. I migrated my iTunes library to another PC and I am now having remote issues. Now the remote app frequently disconnects after my phone locks and the only way I can get it to reconnect is by turning off home sharing and back on again. I've made sure to turn off sharing on the other PC, and uninstalled iTunes.
    After some testing it seems that the disconnect does not happen on my iPad, only my iPhone. I've gone through the home sharing troubleshooting page, obviously my home sharing is working, just not all the time. I have to turn it off and on again to kick in the head. I've also disabled IPv6 as well.

    Hmmm interesting, I'll have to see if I can change that option. This isn't my setup, its a friends.
    I may have been running into a different issue. I got down and dirty and pulled out Wireshark to see what was happening and found some interesting things. My friend has two wireless access points and I was wondering if we were running into an issue with WiFi going into sleep mode on the phone and the remote app timeout while waiting for the wireless connection.
    I disabled the second AP and things seemed to work better, but the remote would still fail to connect once in a while. Thats when I saw that the remote app makes a DNS SRV request looking for a PC on the network that has iTunes, so I looked at the DNS settings on the iPhone and noticed that DNS was pointing to two ISP DNS servers first, then the internal router DNS. I swapped the internal DNS first, and ISP DNS second, renewed the DHCP lease on the phone and things are working great now.
    Either way it seems like the remote app is a bit tempermental with its timeout, it seems like it either gets stuck looking while it waits for WiFi or a DNS response. But at least its working much better now, sorry for the long post.

  • IPhone control of iPad

  • Remote control of Mac via Flash iOS app

    Hi all
    I am a very trial-and-error Flash coder but have managed to create a (I think) pretty serviceable VJ system - see http://www.smashedupsoiree.com/magic-wall/
    There are two Flash movies that run concurrently on the same Mac. One is the video content itself which is displayed by a projector; the other is the Controller movie which runs on the mac laptop screen. The two movies communicate by LocalConnection. I have had some success using VNC apps on an ipad which grabs the screen from the Mac and therefore enables this Controller movie to be effectively operated as a touch screen, portable interface. However there are latency issues with VNC - not what you need for a live performance tool!
    I am considering instead developing the controller as a packaged-for-ios app to reduce the latency issues. If I do so, does anyone know how it will be able to control the flash movie running on the mac on the same network? (In the vein of these kinds of apps: http://mashable.com/2010/02/28/iphone-remote-control-apps/ )? I have read that Local Connections do not work in Packaged-for-iOS apps. Would I instead use Apple APIs? How is this done via Flash Actionscript? I would want to either control the Mac-based movie like a LocalConnection or even simulating keypresses would be fine, that I can then detect with the Mac Flash movie.
    As I mentioned before, I'm no professional coder so the whole matter is a bit blurry to me! Any pointers would be much appreciated...

    Can't get the iPhone remote control app to work for my HDD Hi Res Audio player.  The app can "find" the player and I can turn on the power with the app but then can't get it to go to my music - can only use the "demo" tool with the demo info. What am I doing wrong?

    You can't, you will need to get a new remote.

    I think this is probably a sign that your network could be better than it is.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

  • Is there any way to remotely control iPhone and iPad?

    Hi All,
    I'am investigating a way to remotely control and solve basic problems of iPhone and iPad's. As an enterprise company we have over 2000 iPhones and iPads in our corporate and we want our help desk professionals be able to connect these type of mobiles and help staff over the phone.
    Is there a way to achieve this situation and could you please share with related articles about this sceneraio.
    Thanks Already
    Ozkan from Istanbul

    No. There is no way to do so. Apps would not have access to the necessary APIs to do so as it would create a serious security risk.
