IPhone "FIOS remote" app update caused 'Invalid User Credential'

Hey there,
I recently updated my "FIOS remote" app on my iPhone and started getting 'Invalid User Credential' when checking my DVR in the app or the TV listings, also wasnt able to submit feedback.
TheAbout screen says I'm using "Verizon FIOS mobile remote version 3.1.56 build number 16"
I called Verizon support who helped me.
The fix:  Open a browser and go to www.verizon.com/fiostv/web and logon. 
Feedback in the app still doesn't work so I thought I'd post this here for others.  By the way, I think a 100 character limit is too small for feedback.

I know this error is erroneous because of my ability to login everywhere else.
Please advise on what I can do next.
Hi, I know that app requires that you are connected to the wifi in your home and not on the iphone's 3g.  If you have verified that you are on the Actiontec WiFI (not a second router's wifi) and that your login is correct at all those sites, then you might need to email the dev from the apple store.  It gives you a link to email them there.

  • 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.

  • FIOS Remote app and available space on DVR

    On the newest version of the iphone FIO Remote DVR app I am no longer able to find the amount of space I have used/have available on the DVR.  Can this still be found on the new version?  If this feature has in fact been removed I will take your recommendation and contribute to the Idea Exchange.  Is there in fact a support channel for the app via phone, email or chat?

  • Fios remote app on android wifi only devices?

    So many people these days have a tablet. Some ipad, some android. I Dont know how this topic1 applies on ipad because i do not have one.
    But i have an android tablet which is wifi only. The fios remote app for android is wifi only. I cannot use it on my phone unless i am connected to wifi.
    So why am i asked for the last 4 digits of my phone number?
    Unless someone has a workaround for this, i cannot use the app. And to me it would be pretty cool to use this tablet as a remote. Plus i could show my pictures on tv.(assuming that function is stil there)
    Ive tried a google voice number but no dice.
    So does anyone know whats going on with this?
    Any employees with answers?
    Solved!

  • Phottix Ares won't trigger my off camera 430 ex II when using iPhone EOS remote app!

    I have a Canon 6D, a canon 430ex II and a set of Phottix Ares transmitter and receiver. I have set up my flash off camera and was planning to use the camera’s wifi capability to take a self portrait with my iPhone EOS remote app, but the flash wouldn't fire at all. When I turned off the app and phisically pressed the shutter it worked but never through the app. Then I thought of mounting the 430 directly onto the camera, used the remote app to shoot wirelessly and I was surprised that it worked!!! I coudn't find the logic behind this and I tried to find an answer everywhere with no hope!
    Has anyone gone through tha same experience or have any explanation or solution to this problem? or any alternative solution to get the flash to trigger while shooting wirelessly? thanks.
    [Mod note: Moved to "EOS" because issue seems to be with the EOS App. You'll get more exposure here!]
    Solved!

    If you are shooting using Live View (through the app) it won't fire the flashes like that.  But if you just use the app to release the shutter and review the pics it will.  It's been awhile since I've used the app, but there's a button or something to go between live view and standard shooting.
    That said, I've read that some cameras can work around this by going into the menu and disabling silent shooting, and then Live View will work with simple triggers.  I've never done it as I don't shoot in live view, but I've seen this discussed a lot.  Not sure if the same can be said for the app, but it's worth a shot (no pun intended).

  • IPhone 4 Remote App Not working

    Hello,
    Sorry for posting another 'not working' thread, but having searched the forum I cannot find my answer.
    I am not very technical, but I have iTunes and an iPhone 4.
    I have the remote app and the app has worked perfectly up until recently.
    I have upgraded iTunes to 10 and also my antivirus.
    Now I know alot of these things could be caused by the firewall, but I have allowed iTunes to be let through the firewall and I have switched off the firewall in the past to ensure it was not this.
    When I switch on the computer and open iTunes then go to the remote app it works. It is when the iPhone 'sleeps' that the library wont re connect, OR if i have been using iTunes and then try and start the remote that it will not work.
    Any ideas at all as it is so frustrating. I am not technically minded, so switching router channels etc and proxy settings/DHCP etc dont really make sense to me.
    I have tried rebooting everything including the router, but believe it is something simple as it was working prior to iTunes 10.
    I am running a PC on Vista
    Thanks
    Steve

    no I use both ipad2 iphone4 with remote app and have no issues with ios

  • TS1741 I have done everything in the Apple help artcle but my iphone 4S remote app doesn't connect to itunes, but my iPad does. Any ideas?

    Hi
    My Remote app has stopped working on my iphone, I kep getting nthe message to turn on homesharing.  However homesharing is on, and it works on my iPad Any ideas, all software versions are up to date, although I haven't yet updated the iPad.  Hmmmm

    I have the same thing. I couldn't get either the iPhone 4 or the iPad 2 to connect until I did a full restart of my wireless router. After doing this, the iPad connected automatically but the iPhone won't. Can't think what else to try. They are both on the same wireless network. Same apple ids being used. Nothing jailbroken, all software is up to date.

  • Home sharing for iPhone 4; Remote App

    Am using Windows XP desktop which is connected to router with Ethernet and my iPhone 4 uses the Wi-Fi.
    Got latest version of iTunes.
    Latest version of Remote.app
    iPhone OS 4.3.3, not 4.3.5
    I followed this guide to implement the inbound settings since it isn't available on Windows XP the way it is available on Windows 7:-
    [CODE] no-ip . com/support/guides/routers/configuring_windows_xp_firewall.html[/CODE]
    The port number i entered for TCP is 3689 and named it as bounjourport(the name shouldn't matter).
    mDNSResponder.exe is also running.
    And am still unable to locate my iPhone in iTunes for 'Remote App'. Actually there isn't any "Devices" list present on iTunes, though it appears when i connect the phone with USB. Also tried port forwarding on router, still no change.
    Please help!!
    **My previous phone was Sony Ericsson w995 which supported DLNA and i could access my phone files through the same PC with Ethernet connection to the router, so i guess this should be possible for iPhone too.
    Thanks in advance.

    Anyone help me please?

  • IPhone and Remote App

    I have both an iPhone and an iPad operating on iOS 4.3.  I have noticed that on the iPhone using the Remote App and selecting the Airplay icon that is in the bottom right corner of the screen I can select multiple Airplay outputs.  I have found out that trying to select the "Computer" selection makes this go from a Mutliple slection option to a Single Airplay option, I can not select the Computer as an option. Tapping the circle next to the Computer picture now has the same function that selecting Single/Multiple icon does.  I can unselect the computer if it was already selected (in iTunes/ mutiple speaker window).  The described function works correctly on the iPad Remote App.
    Anyone have anysuggestion?

    Ok I,ve solved my own problem.
    After hours of pinging, researching, swearing, you name it - I did it.
    Solution.
    Pulled out all the power leads on Apple Tv, time capsule and router. Left all devices off for 10 mins. Deleted Remote App off iPhone. Downloaded a new version of Remote App.
    Turned on Router - waited for it to be in ready mode.
    Plugged back in Apple Tv and and time capsule.
    Yep, you guessed what was coming. Everything worked perfectly.
    I must have screwed up when first setting up Remote App and Apple Tv. This must have led to confusing the system. As when starting the new Remote App I did nor not have to pair with either iTunes library or the Apple Tv.

  • App Updates from deleted user won't go away

    I constantly get app update notifications, but when I try to update, I get this message:
    You have updates available for other accounts
    Sign in to [*old users email address*] to update applications for that account.
    The email address displayed is that of the previous owner of the computer. I've deleted his account and everything that I could find of his. I saw on another thread that there was some connection between this error message and pirated/cracked apps. I have no idea if he installed pirated apps, but this update is for "The Unarchiver" which I think is free anyway.
    Can I somehow delete the account and all related software from my computer forever?

    If the Mac shipped with Snow Leopard, you need the original install DVDs. Use them to erase the HDD and install Snow Leopard and the iLife apps. Then use SOftware Upadte to brig the Mac to OS X 10.6.8. You can speak to Apple Care and arrange to buy them if you didn't get them with the Mac. After bringing the Mac up-to-date with Snow Leopard, you can buy the newest version of OS X through the Mac App Store.
    If the Mac shipped with Lion or Mt Lion, you can use OS X Recovery to erase the Mac and install a fresh version of the current version of the original OS.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
    But until the PO calls Apple Care and requests that their Apple ID is disassociated with this Mac, you won't likely be able to install the bundled iLife apps and update them or buy them from the Mac

  • ITunes not recognizing my iPhone for Remote.app

    I've been trying to get this remote app to work with no luck. I tunes doesnt recognize that I have the remote app I guess so its not showing up in iTunes which means there is no place to enter the code to pair my iPhone with iTunes. I have gone through all he troubleshooting stuff. I have the latest iTunes, computer and iphone are on the same network, the firewall is disabled, i tried deleting and reinstalling, shutting down and restarting, All of that and I still don't know what's wrong. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
    Also I have Windows.

    I am having this same issue. I can never get the phone to show up in iTunes. It did work previously and I'm not certain exactly when it stopped working but I only noticed it after getting a replacement phone and reinstalling everything and now it doesn't work. I thought it was maybe a problem with the Device Identifier code but that checked out ok. It's extremely frustrating! I uninstalled the app and reinstalled and that didn't help any. I made sure it is checking for Remotes also - actually told it to forget all remotes and then turned it off and restarted iTunes and then turned it back on.

  • Has the latest Windows Update caused your users issues?

    Are the prompts you're referring to related to UAC? If so, that can be adjusted. Anyways, I haven't had a single issue with any of the machines that have been updated this week. This goes for Win 8.1 and Win 7 machines. :)

    Since Wednesday I've had 3 different Remote Salesmen (Surface Pro 2 users) report that their computers have either crashed or have been giving annoying prompts for any program they've tried to run. Probably not related but a Windows 7 Pro user randomly mentioned that their USB ports stopped working after an update. On the Surface users I noticed each had a Windows Update installed on 7/14.
    Has anyone experienced an uptick in Surface tablets or Windows 7 Pro workstations since the latest Windows update?

  • [iPhone] App Updates: do the user's files remain in tact?

    I have an application in the App Store that creates a database on the user's device (in my app's sandbox, of course). Has there been any indication of whether files in the app's sandbox will remain in tact when an update is applied? My application involves the user entering a lot of information over time and it would not be acceptable for this to be deleted every time there is an update, nor do I really want to implement an entire device-to-computer file syncing mechanism just so I can support updating my app.

    From Karen Spann;
    "Here's what worked for me..  I had several apps hanging ( waiting to update ) on a iPhone 5. 
    1) UNGROUPED any apps that are grouped into single icon ( here may be a named for this )
    2) select the app, it will clear
    3) return to the Apple Store app and "update" your apps"
    This worked for me. I had Angry Birds Star Wars grouped together with several other games.
    I could not update it.
    I ungrouped the App. Selected it on the home page.
    And it was able to update.
    Thanks Karen!
