IOS 5 and the keynote remote problems.

After updating to IOS5, the keynote remote on my iPod touch (4 gen) does link with keynote on iPad 2. Can only link over wifi. The Bluetooth link worked perfectly before update. I have tried all options I can think of, such as hard restart, restore on both devices. Can someone help.

I reported the problem on itunes as scubidoobie suggested. The reply I received was not helpful at all. They recommeded consulting the Apple support page for keynote remote, which is where I started in the first place. I agree that we should all bombard Apple via itunes about this problem (see scubidoobie's reply) and get them to fix it.
I found a workaround on another posting, which is clumsy but worked for me. It may be a solution until Apple updates the remote. The idea is to use another app that can link the 2 devices by bluetooth.
1. Get Pic transfer lite (free app) and install on both ipad and iphone (or ipod touch).
2. Activate bluetooth on both devices.
3. Launch keynote on one device and the remote on the other device.
4. Launch pic transfer on both devices and follow the prompts to sync bluetooth
5. Now double push the home button on both devices to pull up the multi-tasking bar
6. Open keynote and keynote remote on the relevant devices.
5. In keynote, go to settings, advanced, remote. You should now be able to link the remote - on the device running the remote, you may need to hit settings and then 'new keynote link'.

Is the Keynote Remote App no longer available?

I had been using the Keynote Remote app to control my presentations, but it stopped working. I uninstalled it and looked on the App store to reinstall it, but can't find it.

The Remote App has been discontinued. Its functions have been incorporated into Keynote for iOS.

With iOs 7 and the iPhone can someone use the phone while also using a communication app such as Speak It or Assistive Chat? These are text to speech systems for people who cannot speak well. Thanks you!

Thank you.

My iPhone 5 wouldn't start after I turned it off a few minutes after writing this. It went into recovery mode and I had no choice but to connect to iTunes on PC and restore.
I restored to factory setting first, just to validate my phone was okay. For a second consecutive iOS update, the iPhone 5 did not update smoothly while connected to PC and iTunes - I had to retry two times before the progress bar for the update showed. (The exact same problem with the restart occured when I updated to 7.0.4.)
The good news is that I was ultimately able to restore the iPhone 5 to factory settings while running iOS 7.0.6. I did have a backup from about a month ago lying around and was able to successfully restore with that as well, so the damage done is almost negligible since I had my contacts, notes, mail, etc. backed up to iCloud.
Once I completed both restores, the sync with iTunes worked fine.

HT4352 can i control my apple tv from my macbook or only from my other devices and the apple remote.

Just got it and i can control it from everything else including my verizon and sony remotes.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can control the Apple TV with the supplied remote, the remote app from the app store on an iOS device and compatible programmable remotes, you can't control it from your computer (except for streaming content to it from iTunes)

Does the IOS 5 resolve the iPhone battery problem experienced in IOS 4.3X?

Does the IOS 5 resolve the iPhone battery problem experienced due to the IOS 4.3X updates, i am using an iPhone 4 and am facing major battery drains after the IOS 4.3.3 update. Anything indication on this yet available or any feedbacks on this from the test runs? Really hoping that this is corrected after y'days IOS 5 announcement!

Not really.
Just installed the update last night and the update automatically turns ALL the apps "ON" by default so each user much check their phone's settings after each major update.
My iPhone 4's battery was running down quicker after the update. I turned off as many apps that were running in the background and checked the other settings.
I just found out that Bluetooth was turned "ON" by default, a feature I never used, so I turned it off. THIS was probably the real culprit.
The update is still too new to know if it fixed the battery life or not. Given Apple's history with battery life with the devices, don't count on it!

TS1702 No longer able to sign into a free app after iOS 7 and the app (password books) is no longer available

I am unable to sign-in to the Password Books App after installing IOS 7 and the app is no longer in iTunes , published by Razor Apps, LLC, have all my passwords in this app.

WORKAROUND: In iTunes, select the podcast files and hit CMD-I (show info). Set the genre to something other than "Podcast", and in the Options tab, set the Media Type to Music. You can do this to the files that are on your iPhone. If you do this to the files on your computer, they will no longer show up as Podcasts - they'll be mixed in with music files in your library. You can then put these podcasts into playlists on the iPhone, and they'll show up on the phone once it's disconnected. You might need to fool around with this a bit - try it more than once, etc. - I had some podcasts not show up on the iPhone until after a SECOND connect-and-disconnect operation with the computer. Others here might do some experimenting and figure out a smoother set of instructions that will always work - but this is a starting point.
Note that I ALWAYS "manage music and video files manually" - I NEVER "sync" music and video. Your mileage may vary.
Apple - please listen: The handling of podcasts in iOS 7 is not a feature, it's a bug. As you can tell from the comments here, MANY people need to manage podcasts as if they were music files (and sometimes, THEY ARE!!!!). The arbitrary decision to treat podcasts differently is WRONG - an audio file is an audio file. I don't need to buy one TV to watch sports and one TV to watch news - because video is video. Get it? If you want to provide a Podcasts app, that's fine, and anyone who wants to use it can do so. But don't RUIN the previous, excellent functionality that we had before, when it's completely unnecessary and a colossal pain (not to mention insult) to your customers. And in some cases, it's a serious driving safety issue.
I'll be watching this space to see if others can refine the basic workaround that I've found.
UPDATE: It appears that changing the genre is unnecessary, only the "Media Type". It's probably best to do this only to the copies on the iPhone, so the files in your computer's library are not altered.

If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod), however, then it has the Activation Lock on it and you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:
