Is the apple tv remote app fully functional with the iPhone 3gs?

I am thinking of getting the Apple TV so that I can stream things from my macbook pro via airplay but wanted to make sure the app on the iPhone 3gs would allow me to control it. However, I could not find an answer to this question anywhere. Anyone know if it will work fine? Thanks!

The remote app allows you to pick what media you want to play, pause, fast forward, rewind, etc. I is a remote that provides a wonderful interface to do all things related to "traditional remote control functions".
Mirroring is a function of apple TV using airplay mirroring, not a function of the remote. An apple tv will be able to mirror an Mac's display with eligible macs running Mountain Lion.
The remote app and "mirroring" are seperate things.

How do i use the apple tv remote app to navigate the apple tv?

Hi everyone,
I've been given an apple tv remote from my step father. I couldn't honestly tell you which model I'm afraid. He's lost the remote.
I've managed to get the apple tv turned on using a youtube that explaned how to set up with an ethernet cable. I can even airplay stuff from my itunes. However I want to pair my existing remote and I can't work out for the life of me how I use the apple tv remote app to navigate whilst on the apple tv main menu.
There's just no option to do this, despite the youtube vid seemingly doing it. Has a previous update of the app rendered this featured obselete?
Some clarity or help on how I can navigate the apple tv using either my iphone or macbook would be great. That way I can pair my existing tv remote for future use.
Thanks everyone in advance!

Purchase a replacement remote.
The remote is required for configuring the ATV and setting up the remote app on iDevices.

Has the IOS update on my Ipod caused the Apple TV Remote App to have connection problems?

I recently updated the software on my IPod Touch and now the Apple TV Remote App won't connect to the Apple TV. Home Sharing is turned on for both my computer and Ipod. ITunes and the IPod have both been updated. Is there an issue with the new software?

Did you update the OS on the Apple TV?
My iOS 7 devices work fine with my update Apple TV3

Recently updated the the apple tv remote app for my iPhone4. Now can no longer turn on the apple tv "box" on/off using iPhone app. Only thing that shows on iP screen is music library. Home Sharing is on. Any help appreciated.

Recently updated the the apple tv remote app for my iPhone4. Now can no longer turn on the apple tv "box" on/off using iPhone app as I used to do before the update. Only thing that shows on iPhone screen is music library. Home Sharing is on. Any help appreciated. Sorry if this is not exactly the right place to post this!

One clue: I have found a reliable way to solve the problem when it happens.
In my network, I have the main Airport Extreme (Gen 1) which is connected to my router, which distributes IP addresses to my internal subnet. The other two AEs (one Gen 4, one Gen 5) are set to extend the network.
When I get this problem with an AppleTV 2 that can "see" my library, but when I try to open it, it says it couldn't find the library, it seems to have to do with a change in which Airport Extreme it's talking to.
If I restart the main Airport Extreme from the Airport Utility, effectively restarting the entire wireless network, then when the network resumes, every AppleTV 2 is happy again.
Unfortuntely, the problem does seem to recur - but I'm wondering if it's because temporary interference leads an AppleTV 2 to try to connect to a different AE, and somehow that's mucking with the Home Sharing. Remember, internet access (Trailers, Store, Netflix) have no issues. Purely Home Sharing.

Deggie,
Thanks for the info. As soon as my Ipod nano needs charging I'll use my A1102 charger.

I had the same problem , u have to update to iOS 5 since the pages app has updates that are made to work

Apple Radio Remote doesn't work with the iPod Touch?!

In the Future it will be possible to use the iPod touch with the radio remote. About a week before on the apple store site the radio remote was supported by the iPod touch.

Better than the Apple radio/remote.
Works with my (1st gen) iPod Touch.

Why is the Apple TV Remote App So Glitchy All Of A Sudden?

I've owned my 2nd Gen Apple TV for at least four years. It has been great, and the Remote App has been a great addition for use on my iPad and iPhone. However, since the iOS8 update, this app has been absolutely terrible. Connectivity issues abound, and the only thing that ever seems to help at all is the complete reboot of the device containing the remote app. Please fix this issue... it's not okay...

Have you tried all the steps in this article.
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. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
The following article(s) may help you.

TS1741 Does anyone have trouble with the Remote app losing contact with the iTunes library after it has been connected and working fine for a while. If I go to the computer and turn off sharing, then turn it back on, it will relocate the library again.

My iTunes remote app on my ipad mini will work fine for a while and then it will lose the library. I then have to turn off sharing on the computer and then turn it back on. This will work for a while and then I will have to repeat the process. Help!

I have just found the problem to be windows firewall on my library PC
I can only presume there has been an update to windows firewall or iTunes
all the relevant programs were on the allowed list
I'm now currently running with firewall turned off on my library PC.
I'll update when i have found the rogue setting.

The apple TV remote will not click to the right (only to the left, up or down). What to do?

pretty much what it says above! Remote works in all respects except it won't click to the right - which means I can;t reach the 'computers' tab and access programs

Power cycle the ATV.
Remove and replace the battery in the remote.
Try a different remote to rule out the remote being the issue.

When will the EOS Utility be compatible and function with the Mac OS X?!

Is the headset hs-20 fully compatible with the nok...

hi
just wanted to know whether the headset hs-20 is fully compatible with the nokia n93 phone. Can i play, skip, forward etc tracks using the remote control provided with the hs-20 or do I have to do these funtions from the mobile phone itself.
I am planning to buy this headset, so any information will be very useful.
thanks

i have tried a reset and a restore, still nothing.would a service on my touch fix it
Although someone (probably not Apple) could take a look at it, the cost to you may not be money well spent since the likelihood of fixing this may be slim -- it may actually cost less to buy a refurb 3G Touch than repair your 2G.
But you mentioned resetting and restoring it -- did you load your last backup when you restored it? Perhaps your backup is corrupted, so restoring and re-loading the backup will just perpetuate the problem. Try restoring the Touch but set it up as a new iPod (don't select the iPod's current name/ backup at the end of the restore process).
If that doesn't help, then you're probably out of luck.
