My Apple TV remote is not working.

My Apple TV remote is not working. It was fine this morning, but now ATV is not responding to it.  It still access iTunes on my Mac so I don't think it's a battery issue. The white light flashes on ATV, but nothing happens.  I have restarted ATV several times from the mains, but no change.  Please help!

  • Apple tv remote is not working

    I have an apple tv that isn't responding to its remote. I restored the apple tv it is still not working. I think the remote is dead. I was wondering if there is anyway to get the remote app to recognize the apple tv considering it has been recently restored. I don't know what to do help please!

    I am watching this thread for a solution.  I have also changed the battery and tried pairing but see no response.  The tv screen shows all my options, but the remote won't move the cursor.                                                                       
    I've installed the new battery both ways (+down and up) with the same result each time.  Which is correct?

  • Apple TV remote app not working

    I just did the Apple TV update and now the Remote App can't find my Apple TV. There are no lights on the Apple Tv and beyond unplugging it and replugging it in I have no clue how to fix this... help?!

    No there's nothing showing on my tv. I think the ATV won't turn on because I can't use the remote app and the original remote is lost. :S

  • Apple tv 2 remote suddenly not working

    apple tv2 remote no longer working after 11 months of no issues.  Replaced the battery (tried two different new batteries), reset apple tv, re-powered apple tv, press and held remote menu and right buttons for six seconds, repaired remote with apple tv.  Tried various combinations numerous times - but no response from remote.  Can use Ipad Remote TV app just fine.  iOS 7.0.1 - Apple TV reports its the latest software update.

    It did!!! Was working fine until I upgraded to 5.- (5201) today. Now 5g hAs stopped working

  • Apple tv remote doesn't work so I programmed my time warner remote but can't unpair old remote

    I haven't used my apple tv in months and today when I tried using it the remote would not work.  I then tried to program my time warner remote to the apple tv and after I did this whenever I pressed a button on the remote a light flashes three times on the apple tv.  I've read this is because the old remote is still paired to the apple device.  I tried unpairing by holding menu and left on my time warner remote and menu and rewind also but neither combination seems to work as I am still seeing three blinking lights whenever I press a button.  Any help as to how I can unpair my old remote?

    Hi Rudegar,
    Even my Remote is not working.  I changed my battery.

  • Remote does not work correctly after update

    Hello,
    the subject explain it already:
    After upgrading to 2.3 the apple remote does not work correctly anymore:
    I need to push the buttons twice, and than atv is only reacting sometimes.
    Any ideas?

    Same problem here. First, I thought it was the Apple remote's battery. I replaced that and the problem persisted. I then used my digital video camera to verify that the remote was actually transmitting infrared, it was. In frustration, I tapped the buttons rapidly while pointing at the Apple TV. The Apple TV responded. The next button press it failed to respond. I tapped rapidly again and it finally responded. After many many rapid presses, while pointing directly at the Apple TV, it finally began responding to all presses. Once I'd regained control (I thought) I unpaired and re-paired the remote. Everything continued to work. At that time I also saw that I could "learn" another remote. So, I set up my Samsung TV remote. Sweet. Until the Apple TV went into screensaver mode again and I had to go through the same rapid button press sequence... with either the Apple remote or my learned Samsung remote. Conclusion, since the Apple TV will become fully responsive after the rapid button press sequence, it is certainly a software related problem.

    "Not compatible with MacBook Pro with Retina display or iMac (Late 2012)."
    There are some USB IR receivers that allow the Apple Reomote to work with software such as Remote Buddy

  • I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

  • HT3917 My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed

    My apple wireless keyboard is not working after new batteries installed.

    Do you get a steady green light to say there is a connection.    If not, are the batteries the right way round.   Do you have a monitor to tell the batteries strength. Is there a reading.   Are the batteries good quality ones, Duracell, Energiser or Apple rechargeables.

  • HT5622 Why is my Apple ID or password not working anymore after I reset my password?

    Why is my Apple ID or password not working anymore after I reset my password?
    It keep asking my password... I have reset it, then, when I enter the new password, it's not accepted...

    Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
