My Apple Remote stopped working. I tried to use the serialnumber to submit it to repair but the serialnumber isnt working neither and no luck on finding the warranty paper. What now?

When I fill in the serialnumber it keeps saying wrong serialnumber..

Call Apple tech support:

or make an appointment at an Apple Store, if there are any in your area.

Am trying to get my Ipad1 to work via AirPrint using Pages and a Canon MG8250 printer. My iMac works ok but the iPad attempt results in the printer trying to use the rear paper tray rather than the lower paper drawer. All drivers and firmware are latest

My set up is Imac + Ipad1 + canon MG8250 printer. Wireless network. airprint in use and functions fine with the Imac. The Ipad initiates printing ok but always faults out with the error 'Printer out of paper' because it tries to use the rear paper tray (special paper ) instead of the paper drawer.

Johnmac@47-
Could the iMac have printed something that required use of the rear tray? That might have reset the printer's default. Look in the printer manual to see if it has a setting to change the default paper tray. (Note that the iMac does not use AirPrint, it uses the printer's native printing language.)
Your problem may be a flaw in the Canon AirPrint implementation. I suggest you report it to Apple at <iPad Feedback>, as well as to Canon. There may be a simple correction that can be made to either the next iOS update or to the Canon printer firmware.

Apple Remote stopped working with Lion on iMac

My white Apple Remote does not work with Lion on my iMac 2.4ghz Core 2 Duo anymore.
I'm sure it was working recently as I was able to control the volume on my RadioShark application. Now that doesn't work anymore and I can't seem to get the remote to work with anything.
I've tried restarting my iMac, swapping the remote's battery, and using another remote but still no success. The only response I get is from the remote's 'Menu' button which, when pressed, toggles between two graphics on screen - one a four-way arrow indicator with a centre button, and the other what appears to be a Forward/Back, Centre button with corner indications for Expand/Shrink.
I've tried the 'Pair' option but pressing 'Menu' and 'Fast Forward' does nothing on screen - no sign of the chain-link 'Paired' symbol. Neither of the white remotes I tried is 'Paired' with the iMac.
It seems I must have done something to cause this but can't think of any change I made that could be responsible. I know Front Row is no longer accessible in Lion, but is there any other app I could test my remote on? Any kind of hardware reset needed? (unlikely, I know, with two separate remotes showing the problem).
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

I'm replying to my own question because my remotes are working again.
I'm not sure what I did to fix the issue, but I tried shutting down all open applications (I remembered that by default Lion re-opens with everything as it was). And shortly afterwards I got full functionality back for my Apple Remote.
I'm not sure what caused the issue. I did install Easy Timeline, which I'd downloaded today from the Mac App Store. It has Apple Remote functionality, so I'm not sure if it was in some way implicated. It's working now with my remote, as is iTunes, and RadioShark.
Weird!

Why do Apple TV remotes stop working?

Why did my Apple TV remote stop working?

Mine isn't working either. Just changed the battery a couple weeks ago. It was working fine yesterday, now it won't work at all. I also tried resetting the Apple TV and pairing the remote (holding down menu and rewind for 6 seconds close to the device). Anyone?

Welcome to the Apple Community Turbomedic.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    1.    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    2.    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    3.    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    4.    Open iTunes.
    5.    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

AirPlay mirror on Apple TV stops working when a Skype or Google conversation is started (iOS 7)

I thought it would be nice to see Skype contacts on the large screen and realised this should be possible using my Apple TV, but AirPlay (in mirror mode) on Apple TV stops working when a Skype or Google + conversation is started after showing all right on the TV till that point. I'm using iOS 7 and the problem occurs on my iPad 2 and iPhone 5. Facetime seems to be OK, and Skype works over Apple TV when using my daughter's MacBook Pro (though I haven't tried Google + on it), so I deduce that the issue is with iOS 7. I have had success one or twice with using Skype in this manner on my iPhone so it is not consistant, but this is rare and hasn't happened in my latest attempts. Unfortunately some of my Skype contacts don't have an Apple device so I often can't use Facetime.
Is there a work around, or has Apple acknowledged this issue and said there will be a fix?

Same problem here.
iPhone 5s + apple TV + Skype all are up to date. Mirroring is working until the video signal starts, after that the Apple TV goes back to the Apple TV starting screen.

Aluminum Apple Remote not working well with Keynote '09 v.5.0.4

I have an i7 17" MBP and I purchased the aluminum remote to go with it. I do training/presentations for a living and generally halfway through various presentations, the remote will stop controlling them. Sometimes if I restart Keynote it will work again. Sometimes I have to reboot the computer. Other times it just doesn't work at all.
I can use it with my 2007 G4 17" MBP, but I haven't used it enough to see if it develops the same issues as the i7.
I've gone to Preferences > Security > General and tried to pair the remote with the laptop, but holding down the Menu and Next keys at the same time for a few seconds...or minutes... does not bring up the "paired" graphic. I've tried the Menu button and every other key, just to be sure, with the same lack of result.
What the hey? (And, no, "Disable remote control infrared receiver" is not selected.)

I have the white remote stop working on my new 15"MBP occasionally too. Same as you described in the post, it happens pretty randomly. I can get it back to work doing a unpair/pair under system preference panel though. It ***** but better than restarting the computer like you did, try that next time, just takes seconds...
after reading your post I guess I'll give up on trying to buy a aluminum remote. Logitech R400 looks very promising, if you give presentation all the time it might worth the investment.
cheers!

Remote stops working when I insert DVD

Since I got my computer two years ago, every once in a while the remote stops working. I go in to System Preferences and disable the infrared receiver, and it works again. In the last week, the remote has stopped working every time I insert a DVD. Pairing or unpairing the remote makes no difference.

Apple remote not working

My Apple remote is not working with my MacBook. The Mac OS X 10.5 Help Knowledge Base says to go to Security > Systems > and Disable remote control infrared receiver. I don't have a systems button or box nor the checkbox to Disable remote control infrared receiver. And, my MacBook has an infrared receiver.

Hi Focus,
I have the same problem. When I update from TIger to Leopard the front row apple remote still working. But is been a long time the last time i used and now on 10.5.2 osx the apple remote not working as I imagine.
I read some answers that help me understand better the problem. My check box of "disable remote.."is unchecked and I saw a "pair" button and try to pair with my apple remote. The tips told me to HOLD "menu" and "next" buttons of apple remote to pair him with computer. And Works fine. So I try to push only Menu button (as I've done so many times on tiger) but still does not working. So I realize the command to "start front row from apple remote" now on Leopard 10.5.2 is MENU+NEXT buttons and does not anymore only menu button. For me works like this.
While I write this answer I try again push and hold only MENU button and after almost 2 or 3 seconds holding button appears on screen an virtual image of my apple remote signaling to replace the battery, may be now will be works only on push menu, but I need to change the battery first.
I hope help somebody.

Apple remote not working, is there a way to setup Apple TV without the remote

Apple remote not working, is there a way to setup Apple TV without the remote

Welcome to the Apple Community Sylvia.
There is no way to set up home sharing on the Apple TV without the original remote from Apple, you will need to purchase a new remote from the Apple Store.

Apple Remote doesnt work

Requirements :
Mac Book Air 11,6 " OSX 10.7 and Apple Remote !
Has anybody a Idea why the Apple Remote did not work with this Macbook Air

Your MacBook Air most likely doesn't have an infared reciever, which is required to use the remote. Only the models up to Mid 2009 have the IR port that is required.

I am having trouble with my iPad, i can start it, but the iPad does not work. i tried to use the power and home button at the same time, the apple logo appears, but the iPad does not work. What am I suppose to do?

After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.

Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?

Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?
Thanks!

It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.
