Rating songs via Remote app

I used to be able to change a song's rating via the Remote App. With the 3.0 Remote App upgrade, this capability seems to have been lost on the iPod Touch platform, but is still available from the iPad. Am I missing something???

Guys
I have found a solution that lets you downgrade to the previous version of the remote app :-)
Tested and it works: -
When apps are updated through iTunes, tiny .ipa files are sent to the computer’s Trash or Recycle Bin. As apps are updated, the previous version’s files are sent here for deletion. Instead of deleting these, drag them to your desktop.
To restore an app to its older version, open up iTunes and look at your Apps list. Find the app in question and delete it. Next, drag the correct version file from the desktop into the Apps Library in iTunes.
Next, Delete the app from your iphone
Finally, sync your device. The app is now restored to a previous version.

  • Can't wake up Apple TV 2gen via remote app or airplay

    Hello,
    Can't wake up my Apple TV 2gen via remote app or AirPlay from my iPhone 3GS or my iPad 2. All devices are on the current IOS version (4.3.1). Wake up with the hardware remote is possible.
    The remote app and AirPlay works if the wake up is done with the hardware remote. If I had tried to wake up the apple tv via the remote app or AirPlay the apple tv needs a reboot (unplug power) to work proper with the iPhone or the iPad.
    Seems to by a bug in IOS 4.3.1!?
    Any ideas?

    no, remote app never supported waking up appletv's
    if that will change I can't say but you can let apple know how you feel

    but mind you putting appletv to sleep don't really safe much in terms of power
    and it's connected to the wifi network always

  • IPhone or iPad won't connect to Apple TV via Remote App

    I am trying to connect to my ATV2 via the remote app on my iPad2 iOS 5.1.1 and a 3Gs with 5.1.1 and I can not get it to see my ATV2 at all. I have rebooted it and rebooted both the phone and iPad multiple times and it still won't connect. Funny thing is, I have a Galaxy S 3 and can use the AppleTVMedia app from the Play store and can connect to my ATV2 just fine!! Wouldn't it be eaiser for the Apple products to connect to Apple Products??? Anyone have any idea on what I can do to get my iOS devices to connect to my ATV2?

    Figured out my Apple TV issue. It had to do with how I had it networked. I guess it doesn't like Ethernet over Power line anymore. When I have WiFi on the remote app works fine on my iOS devices. But when I plug in the Ethernet cable it doesn't see it on the remote app. I know its not my Ethernet over power line adapter because other things attached to it work just fine.
    Gonna try and do a firmware update to see if that will help.

  • HT202788 iPhone 4 cannot control Apple TV via remote App? this is bullying by Apple!!

    Looks like I can't control latest Apple TV via the Remote App on an iPhone 4 running iOS 7 - why?... surely this has nothing to do with hardware capabilities and everything to do with Apple's bullying into forcing people to necessarily update their devices. I hope that I am missing something but it all worked fine and now ..!

    The confusion between different passwords due to Mobile Me and iCloud plus the complexities of Home Sharing and the frustration of using an increasingly outdated iPhone4 with the sometimes challenging Remote App and a brand new iMAC have proved to be a lethal combination.
    I resolved the issue by resetting the Apple TV and the Remote App, making sure I keep things simple by only using the iCloud account ... hope this keeps me out of trouble for a while.

  • Adjust radio station list on ATV2 & access via Remote App

    Hi everybody,
    On my Apple TV 1 I could get further radio stations by adding them to a play list on my MacBook and then synchronizing with the ATV1. Further, I was able to select the radio stations directly on my iPhone & iPad via the Remote App (i.e. without having to turn on the TV).
    On the Apple TV 2, it seems like I can neither adjust the defined list of radio stations, nor access the radio station list directly via the Remote App for the iPhone / iPad.
    Am I simply not finding the right option or is there really no way to adjust radio stations and/or access them directly via the iPad Remote App on the ATV2?
    Thanks a lot!
    Hobbes
    P.S.: I know that a workaround would be to use any radio app on my iPad and then stream to the ATV2 via Airplay, but I'd liek to have that working directly on the Apple TV... :)

    While I still haven't found a solution to my original problem (i.e. to adjust the list of radio stations and being able to select them via the Remote App), I found a page of somebody with the same issue who has proposed some alternative solutions:
    Radio Streaming on the ATV2
    Still not 100% what I am looking and hoping for, but I thought this guy's suggestions may be helpful for others stumbling across this post.

  • IPad cannot find Apple TV (via 'remote' app)

    I have a MacBook, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. I have remote on my iPhone and both the library from my MacBook and ATV are on here.
    I have downloaded Remote for the iPad, however it will only find my MacBook library. I have tried turning home sharing off and then back on again and have called Apple who advised to delete the app, reset and then download it and start again. Tried this without success.
    I have looked at all the options under settings in the ATV menu and under 'remotes' it has my iPhone listed but i cannot add another.
    HELP!

    I assume that you have added the library on the iPad so this so please forgive me if you have ...
    I don't have ATV. But I do have two iTunes libraries from two different computers available on my iPad. Can I assume that you have added the ATV by this method on your iPad?
    When you launch the app, tap on the one library you have, do you get the option to add another library by then tapping on the settings gear in the upper right corner? Does that option even come up for you? Or, if you are in the one library that you have, can you tap on the rectangles in the upper left corner to take you to the screen with the gear setting?
    Like I said, apologies if you have done this on your iPad.

  • HT1947 No sound in remote app

    I am using the remote app, the home sharing is working the files play but i can not hear anything

    Are you controlling the AppleTV with Remote app or accessing an iTunes library via Remote app and Airplaying to AppleTV - if the latter I suspect you have Speaker set to computer or other destination.

  • Ipad Remote app works for only half the songs in my iTunes library, and sound still comes out of my Mac instead of my iPad.

    Can anyone offer suggestions? I realize there are two separate issues here.
    1. I thought I successfully connected my iPad with the iTunes library on my Mac/ Hard Drive via the Remote app. However, more than half the songs in my music library will not play on the Ipad; when I click on any one of them using the iPad's Remote app & iTunes, I get a message box that says: "An unknown error occurred. Please check your library and try again." These songs all play fine through my Mac's Itunes program.
    2. I had thought I could use the Remote app to get my library "into"  my receiver, connecting the iPad to the receiver with an RCA-to-headphone adapter. This adapter works great to play music that "lives" on an iPod or iPad.  But it does not seem to be able to access music that the ipad is controlling only remotely. If this is true I will be pretty unhappy...

    Thank you. My two questions have now shifted.
    1. You are right-- I have been unsure as to whether Homesharing or Remote was my answer, and I did set up Homesharing on both my Mac and iPad. It still appears that my music comes out of the Mac, only. How can i use  Homesharing to allow the iPad to play music? 
    2. And I went back to check again, and saw that somehow, the songs that my iPad cannot locate are also somehow missing now on the Mac, even though they used to be accessible. My entire music library is stored on an external hard drive, which I used to connect to my Mac with USB. I just got a new router and now have the music hard drive connected via USB to IT instead of the Mac. I would bet that this is why so much of my library is no longer accessible-- I must have used different settings to save some of my songs, and the hard drive's new location shows that. Can anyone help me make my entire music library playable ? Thanks again

  • Can I use the iOS remote app to rate iTunes songs on my Mac

    I have the Apple iOS remote app on my iPad I was wondering if I could use this to rate songs as I'm listening to them instead of having to walk to my Mac and and change the rating in iTunes

    An Apple TV has an interface that requires navigation, the alternative was offered to counter the need for your TV (if one was using home sharing they would also need a computer up and running). If the content is being streamed using airplay then you can change the content using your IOS device remotely.
    If that does not work for you, can provide feedback to Apple if you wish.

  • Using ipad with remote app, I cannot change to watching a movie from listening to music through Apple TV without resetting the procedure. It only changes the song

    Using ipad with remote app, I cannot change to watching a movie from listening to music through Apple TV without resetting the procedure. It only changes the song

    it might be worth checking your TV settings to see if it has an option for different settings based on whether using the tv speakers or headphones.
    Normally you should be able to control the sound via the tv.
    Have you tried it without the headphones?

  • Remote app on iphone 5:  Why are songs gray?

    So I just got an Airport Express and the Remote app.
    In the app, 80% of my songs are gray and I am unable to add them to "Up next," but I can still play them when selected individually.
    Any ideas what's up?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Are they checked in iTunes.

  • Remote app for iPad Wont show songs but iPhone Will

    Hi All
    I have a Strange problem with airport Express and airtunes
    From my iPad 4.2.1 running Remote app for iPad if i search for an artist, like Gary Moore, it shows the artist name, but when i Press the name it doesnt display the songs with this artist, it says no songs found.
    But if i use the same app on both my iPhone 4 and my iPod touch, and do the same search and Press the artist name, it shows All the songs that i have with this artist
    Both the iPad and the iPhone connects to the same airtunes library, on the same machine with iTunes 10.1?
    Does anybody have any ideas of what is wrong
    I have tried to reinstall the app on the iPad, but that diednt work, i have tried to delete the library on the iPad with no luck
    Aby help would be apreciated
    Sincerely

    I know this is an old question, but I had the same problem and found the solution somewhere else and thought I'd post it here as this thread comes up when googling for the answer.
    It appears as though any songs without an "Album" don't appear. In iTunes select all songs without an album, right click and select "Get Info" and give them an Album name (e.g. "Unknown" or "Singles"). This might also apply to songs without other tags.

  • The iTune Remote App has stopped finding my iTunes library when connected to wifi from my main router, but works fine when connected via second wifi router on the same network (different SSID)

    I'm running iTunes Remote App from a couple of iPhone 5's and a first generation iPod Touch. iTunes is running on a PC - Windows 7. My home network runs two Wifi Routers, each with a different SSID. I've had no problems with the Remote app running this set up for the last 8 months but recently the App can only find my iTunes library when the iPhone/iPod is connected via one specific router, when connected to the network via the other router, no iTunes library is found. I'm also running an Apple TV and it's the same as the iTunes Library, only visible via the one SSID.
    Everything else seems to work fine when connected via either router, eg Internet on the iPhones (definitely via wifi)
    I've tried renewing the lease on the iPhone wifi connection, restarting everything.....several times.....
    It used to work fine, this only seems to have been a problem in recent weeks
    Any help or advice would be much appreciated
    Thanks
    Ian

    It turned out to be the firewall settings on our router. Her machine was sending traffic that our router interpreted as a DoS attack and blacklisted her Airport's MAC address. That's why it would work fine if she switched to Ethernet.

  • Remote App only seeing 1/2 my songs on 1st gen. ATV

    Going a little bonkers here. I am using my AppleTV as a music server into my juicy living room stereo system. The flow chart seems fairly simple:
    1. Sync playlist to Apple TV (first gen)
    2. Pair Remote app on iPhone 4S to Apple TV
    3. Works great, EXCEPT:
    Remote only sees approx. 1/2 the tunes on the playlist. Interestlingly, it is almost, but not exactly, 1/2 the tunes. It also seems to give a slightly different song count sometimes. The Apple TV has never given an indication that it is full (approx. 1GB is empty still.)
    Let's not even go into the frustrations of relying on Home Sharing-- which works only erratically. When it DOES, I do see the entire preferred living room playlist. Then I  can use Airplay to accesss the entire library, but I am at the mercy of a lot of wireless hurt.
    Whuttup people?
    Thanks in advance--  Scott

    So, it looks like turning on Home Sharing solved it! I had no idea it was required as it was working before there even WAS a home sharing option :/   Anyhow, of course it works the minute i post this

  • Remote App won't list songs when sorted by artist

    I'm using the Remote App to control my iTunes running on my PC with Windows XP, it mostly runs fantastic and I love it!  One small and annoying problem though, when I search my library by artist and select an artist, it won't list any songs.  I am also using the remote app on my iPhone for the same iTunes library and have no problems at all!  I thought it may have been an issue with my ID3 tags, however seeing as it is working with my iPhone I'm not sure what the issue could be?????  I love the Remote App and it has made my home audio system fantastic, if only I could sort this small issue!  Any ideas???? Thanks.

    There are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song is marked as part of a compilation or 2) the song has no album name associated with it.
    if the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. If you are using iTunes 8 and view the multiple items info box the compilations setting is in the "Options" tab. Setting "Compilations" on your iPod main menu prevents you getting lots of single artist entries when you load an album by various artists.
    Also if the tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances (for instance I read somewhere that if you have at least two tracks with different album names the rest will appear), however the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous to all the blanks in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod
