Remote App cannot control Radio – Continuously displays loading message

Been having this problem for quite a while and no one on the internet seems to know how to fix it. Here are the exact steps:
1. Connect to Macbook Pro itunes from ipad 2 or iphone 4 using Remote App.
2. Connection is established and can control local library, volume, start, stop... etc..
3. Try to click on the "Radio" tab in the side bar... right panel displays "Loading..." messaging.
4. iTunes on Macbook Pro appears to refresh the listing of radio stations and they are displayed within itunes
5. iPad or iPhone remote app continues to display the "Loading..." graphic and never actually loads the radio station listing
Result:
Radio cannot be controlled remotely by the remote app.
Additional notes:
If you start a radio station from the iTunes app from the computer itself, you can then stop and start it from remote, but you can never control the listing/look for other radio stations, etc.
Is anyone else having this problem? Seems like a huge bug and I'm curious if anyone has found a solution.
Thanks,
Alex

Also having a similar problem. Maybe what I've tried will help, possibly not though as I'm still searching for a solution too.
Have Remote App on iPhone 4S to control Apple TV (ver3) which it does fine regarding playlists on iTunes (on Win PC), but doesn't regarding iTunes Radio. Curiously, Apple TV has an iTunes Radio app within it's menu, but it can only be controlled (apparently) with the Apple TV remote (not the iPhone Remote App), AND you'll need Apple TV connected to a TV monitor to see what's happening...you can't see it from the Remote App on the iPhone. I've digressed a bit, sorry. What I noticed on the Remote App is when you click on your iTunes library and then click on the "More" option (bottom right) it actually has a listing for Radio. If you click on Radio the genre list comes up then you can select a station. The problem is that the station never plays.
In another problem post someone suggested creating an iTunes Radio playlist within your iTunes library and then dragging individual radio stations to it, just like you would any other music. When I tried that, the Remote App can "see" this playlist through your library, but similar to the above, the station never plays once you select it. Note: The other post suggests that this allows the Remote App to play your radio stations, but I never got it to work.
So, like all above, I'm stuck as well. Very strange that the Remote App can "see" the Radio stations via my two methods above, but is not able to make them "play".

HT201272 Remote app to control iTunes no longer works

I use Remote app on all of my devices to control iTunes. I had to restore three iPods and now the Remote app cannot be installed from iTunes or the App Store. The error message says I need iOS 4.3. How do I find this software? iTunes says my iPods are up to date. The Remote App worked fine before with the existing software.

After digging around more, I was able to do what I was looking to do. I installed iTunes on the machine downstairs, activated hom sharing. Then used the Remote app on my phone, connected to iTunes downstairs, then went to "more" within the app... Then selected "shared", connected to the library upstaris... and Boom, its worked!

Is there a remote app to control my apple tv that I can put on an old iPod touch using iOS 3?

Is there a remote app to control my apple tv that I can put on an old iPod touch using iOS 3? The only remote app I can find is only comparable with an OS of 7. Help please!

Sadly but no.

Since upgrading to ios7, apps just say waiting and then get the app cannot be downloaded at this time message. We run a proxy server, devices running ios6 have no problems. Anyone know what the problem is? I think apple just needs to fix its new OS.

I work at a school running 10 iPads. We connect to the internet through a proxy server. Prior to iOS7 we had no issues, the devices still on iOS6 work perfectly.
All devices which have been upgraded to iOS7 cannot download apps. I can find the apps in the store, choose to download them, but the icon hangs for a while before returning the "app cannot be downloaded at this time message". Help.

I have this same exact issue. We have even put all apple servers as not even being filtered by proxy and it still wont download anything. Nor will it let us even log in or create a new acct in the app store. It seems its also not just app store related....as it won't even let you check for IOS updates when a proxy is entered.
If anyone has any ideas let us know!

HT1947 Remote Apps cannot display in landscape mode in iOS7

My ipad 4 cannot display the Remote App in landscape mode after upgraded to iOS7, also the response is very slow when choosing album, songs or Artist

Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If there isn't a lock symbol then try a soft-reset (is that what you mean by restarting ?) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

REMOTE app on iPhone does not display Cover Art

I use the Apple REMOTE App on my iPhone to control my iTunes music library on a Mac. The REMOTE App controls the iTunes playback properly. However, the Cover Art for each song does not display on the "song" screen - showing the song currently playing. Across my iPhone screen (where the Cover Art should appear) are the words containing album of the song). The name of the song and album correctly appear at the top of the screen.
What is interesting is that when I hit the back arrow (left side top on song screen), all of the Cover Art appears in small thumbnails. The Cover Art also appears in other displays (for example, the currently-playing Album) using REMOTE on my iPhone. This means that the cover art is being transmitted to my iPhone - HOWEVER IT DOES NOT DISPLAY ON THE SONG SCREEN.
Can anyone kindly help me resolve this - because I would really like the Cover Art to display properly on the song screen. Thank you. Dale

Nezmo, This is really unbelievable. I have suffered from the issue I described for SEVERAL YEARS. Today, for some reason I decided to make this post on the Apple discussion board. And, today the issue was fixed by Apple. I just downloaded the update to the REMOTE app and the cover art now shows beautifully on my iPhone 6 plus. Thanks. Dale

Remote app and iTunes Radio question

Am I missing something or are we not able to control the iTunes Radio with the Remote Application for iPod Touch/iPhone?
I can control my music library obviously with the Remote app, but I see no where in the app to control the Radio.
If I sit at my iMac and select/play a radio station and then look at my iPhone running Remote, I can see that it's play the radio station, but I can't select other radio stations from the Remote app. I stream music from iTunes to several speakers throughout my home and would love to be able to control the Radio from anywhere in the house much like I do my iTunes library.

Can I run the radio from my laptop?
I'm not sure I understand your question. The only place you can run iTunes from is a computer, either laptop or desktop. iTunes Radio is part of iTunes so you run it from your computer.
If that doesn't answer your question, let me know and I'll try again.

(iPhone) Remote app and internet radio

Does anyone know why the Remote app does not show the (internet) Radio tag in iTunes, when all others are present (except the Apps tag)?
This of course is to remotely cause the computer to play internet Radio over the house WiFi & Express - not to get Radio on the iPhone itself. There seems no obvious reason for this tag being missing from the control set - or is there something wrong with my setup? (but it works from iTunes on the computer).

You can create a Playlist called RADIO and drag all of the internet radio stations (or the ones you want) into that and it works fine. Works for Front Row too if you have a Mac. The only issue is that some radio stations change URL now and again, so the list can go out of date.

TS2972 I have signed in with same Apple ID & same network but still can't use Remote app to control my iTunes via iPhone 4s or iPad2.

I have gone through FAQ and tried all methods and checked settings in my iMac and my iOS devices (iPhone 4s and iPad2) and still can't useRemore app to control iTunes. I have used this app without a problem before with my old iPhone 3 and it worked fine.
What is wrong with it?

Other than you have used it before and it worked - can you provide some more details? You don't see your iTunes library in the remote app?

Homesharing + Apple Remote App on 2 iPads = different display

Hi everybody,
I have the following setup installed at home: An Apple TV 2 + Two iPads. My wife and I are using the devices together, so each of us has their own Apple ID / account ("MyAccount", "WifeAccount") which we are using for our iPads. However, I have entered the same account for homesharing on all devices, so it looks like this:
Apple TV 2: iTunes = MyAccount, iTunes Match = MyAccount, Homesharing (HS) = MyAccount
First iPad (me): Overall: MyAccount, HS = MyAccount
Second iPad (wife): Overall: WifeAccount, HS = MyAccount
We are using the Apple Remote iPad App on both iPads to control the Apple TV 2. However, we have the following issue:
When I use the Remote App on my iPad, I can directly access the music files which are in the iCloud through iTunes Match. "Directly" means I don't need to turn on my TV, i.e. I can see, browse through and select all music files directly on the iPad and they will start playing on the Apple TV.
So I am not streaming from the iPad to the ATV2 (i.e. no Airplay); the iTunes Match songs play directly on the ATV2 as if I were selecting them via TV. So far, so good...
Now, when my wife starts the Remote App on her iPad, she can see and select the ATV2 and she can control it via TV (with swiping and clicking), however, she doesn't see any of the music files on her iPad. This means that she always has to turn on the TV and click through all the options to select music (because that way she can see the files in the cloud), but she can't select them directly on her iPad.
I understand that she doesn't have my iTunes Match account activated on her iPad, however, from my perspective this should not be required., since the ATV2 is logged in to the iTunes Match account and thus we both can select the music via the TV interface - but only I can see and select the files via iPad.
Does anyone experience the same problem and/or has a solution for this so that my wife can select the songs on her iPad as well?
Thanks a lot!
Hobbes

Hi Winston,
Thank you for your answer! I agree that this seems to be a logical explanation, but then it is a strange way of implementation. After all, anyone can access all my music by going through the TV interface with the physical silver Apple remote, regardless if any computers, iPads or iPhones are turned on. So the ATV2 has access to all the music files and also lists them all, however, in the App only I can see them - my wife has to use the TV & remote.
Further, home sharing should enable all my family members to listen to all "my" music. My MacBook Pro provides music via the "physical" iTunes library, my ATV1 provides music via the physical iTunes library (stored on the HDD), my ATV2 provides music via access to iTunes Match.
So now I can access & see all files directly: MBP, MBP via ATV2, ATV1 and of course ATV2.
My wife on the other hand can only access MBP, MBP via ATV2, ATV1 but not ATV2 unless she turns on the TV.
So maybe Apple followed the logic you described when designing home sharing & the remote app, but then they moved from a great implementation on the ATV1 to a "user unfriendly" solution on the ATV2...
Oh, well, looks like I'll be keeping my ATV1 longer than I had expected ;-)

The remote app to control music library won't go portrait

When i control my music library on my Mac with the remote app on my iPad. It appears on the iPad only in portrait and won't turn to landscape when you turn the iPad since iOS7. Any thought?

Same problem, many threads on this now, looks like a bug for Remote in IOS7, hope they fix soon, no good to me in portrait mode.

HT1947 Remote app in iOS7 won't display in landscape mode

Title says it all - since I updated to iOS7 (which I really like), the Remote app stays in portrait mode no matter how I turn the iPad. Is it me or is this something other folks have run into?

Same here, Remote is the only app not rotating. Have tried everything I could imagine might fix it to no avail. Considering that the app icon hasn't been "sevened" my guess is someone missed the briefing or Apple doesn't understand how important this app is to some of us. There are already a few other threads on this, haven't yet found a solution in them.

Loaded IOS 7 and now notice that in the Music App cannot choose format to display all my albums as a matrix, Loaded IOS 7 and now notice that in the Music App cannot choose format to display all my albums as a matrix

After loading IOS 7 i note that there is no longer a choice of how you want albums displayed in the MUSIC App!
I used to find it useful to display them all as a matrix and then choose by touching the relevant album cover!
This app now lists the albums as a list alphabetically which means I have to scroll thru the list to find the album I want.Can we have this facility back?
I called the support desk and he could not find this feature!

Exactly!
This is all about the experience and accessibility. I don't even mind if the new desing is beautiful or not, but if I find myself, like you, avoiding looking for my music, my experience becomes frustrating. I have about 35 albums of a single artist and I used to love going over them and choose the right thing for me, especially being on the road a lot, and now I have to think twice about even entering his name.
I really hope Apple will take those kind of things into consideration when they issue updates for ios 7, and maybe also give us back the goole search which was embeded into the spotlight search (which is really not that big of a request).
And for your 4s - get the new iphone, it's MUCH better

Using a single remote app to control multiple Apple TVs

Can you use the remote application which is loaded on my IPad 2 to control multiple ATVs independently? If so, how is this done.

Yes you can.
I have a mixture of AppleTV 1 and 2 and several itunes libraries.
The top level screen lists all devices/itunes libraries - when you choose one it enters the control mode for that and app tends to restart with that iTunes library or AppleTV device. Press icon that looks lie 2 overlapping squares with rounded edges on top left of display to get back to top level screen.

Speedgrade Scope controls not continually displaying

Hi,
I am trying to grade footgae editied in premiere, it is mpeg footage from a Canon 5d.
I have used the direct link from PPro to take my sequence to Sg for editing, when I bring up the scopes, they are flat, and display no information, only when I click on the control wheels, or sliders do they show values, whichmakethe grading inpossible. Is this a bug? or am I missing something. Or is it related to the file type? Im working on a mac retina laptop.
Thanks

The scopes controls are somewhat twitchy ... and definitely affected by which vid-card/ram on which CPU and whether the full moon comes before the 15th this month. I need to keep down to 1/2 on that dynamic quality setting ... and yea, really really want a mobo/vid-card that Sg likes so it works more smoothlier ...
