Remote App: iPhone not showing up under devices

I have the older iphone and have the newest versions of iTunes and the Remote app.
I have the "Look for iPhones" under devices checked
I have sharing checked.
I changed my firewalls to the third radio and allowed incoming for iTunes.
I've tried starting the Remote app first, and then opening iTunes and vice versa.
Yes, they are on the same wifi connection.
I'm stumped. Why isn't my iPhone showing up?

Suffered for 50 minutes on this one today!
Finally got everything to work by digging a truck-sized hole through my firewall.
In my case I had to enable Bojour service- was for some reason disabled in my windows startup, can re-enable by Start>Run>services.msc and make sure Bonjour is set to automatic and start it.
Also had to open up my AVG antivirus firewall settings and make sure Bonjour was not blocked.
Also had to set my iphone's wifi ip address as a 'safe network' in AVG firewall settings.
ALSO had to go into my router settings and specify a new application rule for routing: In the case of my D-Link DGL4300 I chose Advanced>Gaming>Add Game Rule, then gave it 'itunes remote' as name, chose my computer ip for the IP Address, then 3689 for TCP and 5353 for UDP, and Allow All. Saved that.
Restarted iTunes and whattya know, it just worked (and I was never ever asked to enter that 4 digit passcode anywhere, soooo have no clue what the point of it is).

Which version did you buy on your iPad ? If you bought the HD version then that is only compatible with the iPad, so you will need to buy the iPhone/Pod version (or download the free version) if you want to use it on your iPhone.

IPhone does not show up under devices on my hard drive

I have a MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4. At one time, my iPhone did show up under devices on my hard drive until I did something really stupid and deleted it. It has never shown up since. Any help out there? (It shows up in iTunes just fine.)

Is your iPhone fully charged? If not, it will not upload to PhotoStream, to save energy.
See:
iCloud: Photo Stream Troubleshooting
iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
Is iTunes running, when you connect your iPhone? Quit iTunes, before you connect your phone.

Updated iTunes and iPod software iPod not showing up under devices in iTunes

Updated software since computer said there were updates. Now I'm having trouble with iPod not showing up under devices. Have gone through all the steps under troubleshooting. Nothing helped. Had this same problem periodically in the past, as well. Itunes also says I have an app I reinstalled today due to it not working properly, and it won't synch with iPod. (earlier today, iPod was showing up and synching properly, but this app wasn't getting downloaded to the iPod. Just shows up in iTunes. HAve tried restarting computer, iTunes and iPod, but no luck.

Thank you but I have tried this and it still does not show up. I even tried to delete itunes and reload it but the computer says that it is not able to delete itunes.

TS1425 it won't disconnect it says connected but is not showing up under devices in ITunes

I Pod is not showing up under devices in ITunes...it is connected to my MacBook Pro and it says connected ...but it is frozen...

I'm not a Mac user, but do one of the following:
> Restart your mac.
> uninstall & reinstall iTunes
> reset your iPod (if possible)
> make sure iTunes is up to date.
This is what I really know, I don't use a mac. If this doesn't help, then sorry.

IMac Bluetooth keyboard not showing up under devices in my iPad

Even after I remove it from my list of iMac devices, if I touch a key on the keyboard, it reconnects to the iMac. So after I removed it from the devices on my iMac, I shut the iMac off to see if I could get it to work with my iPad (first generation) and it doesn't show up under bluetooth devices on my iPad. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong, or is it not possible to do this? I even paired (and unpaired) my iPad to my iMac. I followed all the directions to unpair/disconnect my keyboard from the iMac, but I still cannot get my iPad to find the keyboard under bluetooth devices.

IPhone not showing up in devices list

I have an iPhone 3Gs and a 27" iMac i7. I downloaded the remote app from the store, and the setup worked the first time I tried it. I added an AppleTV to this mix, and now the phone won't show up in the devices list (and can't find my library). The TV does, but the phone doesn't. When I look in the iTunes preferences, the TV says syncing even though it appears to be done. The "look for remotes" box is still checked on the devices tab. I tried resetting everything, and even deleted and re-added (and re-synced) the TV. It still says "syncing" in the preferences. Everything is on the same wireless network. It's annoying since it worked fine before I added the TV. Although, even when I unplug the TV the app doesn't work.

Download the current iTunes installation and re-install it over the existing - not need to uninstall iTunes first.

My Apple TV does not show up under devices, and more.

Okay, firstly, I am relatively new to Apple ptoducts. I was recently purchased an Apple TV and a 27 inch iMac by my lady. And yes, I realize how amazng she is. She bought me these gifts to ensure that the last two and the next 4 months go by smoothly. I was struck by a car while it was doing 65+ mph, than struck again by the same car, than ran over and jumped off of. Yeah.... So needless to say I have severe brain damage, lost memory, a leg that is now 52% titanium and worse, I can not use my right arm.... for now, it may recover with the next two years. so, I tell you this for a little "guilt" but mostly to excuse the formatting of this email. It was typed entirely on my iMac and entirely using one hand, and not my primary hand at that.
I am not new to iTunes, I had a few purchases before this issue. Between those purchases and my Apple TV "FUN" I have amassed quite a few: Seasons of TV and Movies.
1:   When I log in to my Apple TV, I can see all of the purchases that I made using both the Apple TV and those that I made previously using iTunes on my Windows based PC. All is well. They are organized by type and sorted perfectly. That plus they stream quicky and completely.
2:   When I turn on my iMac and start iTunes, I do not see my TV seasons or Movies under the "Library" section on the left side of my iTunes screen. I see the options, they are simply empty. I see no content listed within them.
3:   I can however select the "Purchased" option under the "Store" section on the left hand side of the screen. Once inside that options area, I can click on "Download Previous Purchases" in the lower right hand corner of the screen. From there I can see all of my purchased TV and Movies, including those that I had previously purchased on my old windows PC and those purchased recently on my Apple TV set. That and I can download them and make them available to my iMac version of iTunes.
5:   I am unable to see my Apple TV listed under the "Devices" section. I also do not see the "Devices" section at all, however I assume that is because it is currently emty.
QUESTIONS:
A:   Can you stream data such as TV seasons or Moies while using iTunes on an iMac. Similar to the way that you stream them from your iTunes purchase histor while viewing them on an Apple TV? Or do I need to download them inorder to view them?
B:   Is Apple TV shown under connected devices while it is connected to the Wi-Fi netwok? I can see my Iphone under devices when I connect it with a cable to my iMac. So I know that my devices section is working. I simply fear that my Appl TV is not showing up brcause of existing issues.
NOTES:
A:   All of my devices are updated with the latest available drivers.
B:   My Apple TV, iMac and iPad all work on the same Wi-Fi network. That and they are all connected to the same iTunes account.
C.   My lady is using a different login for the iMac. Her iTunes is setup but is not usng my iTunes account, it is using her account and has access to her DATA. When I log in to the iMac, my iTunes is working and is different from the iTunes that is operating under her username.
Ok Guys..and Gals please help me out. The thing is, none of this is truly effecting me in a substantial manor. I can see my purchase history, I can download parts of it to my iMac via iTunes, and my Apple TV is smoooooooth. I mainly need clarification on the questions that I asked. Can I stream using the iMac, should I see my Apple TV under devices, and why do I not see my DATA under the library section of iTunes?
THANK YOU for you time. Remember, I am relatively new to Apple as a product. And I fricking LOVE it.
When I was in my accident, my arm, my leg, my skull, my brain, my clothing, my key chain and my wallet, were all destroyed. But my iPhone survived. I have records both police and medical to prove this. The one way I had to have any initial memory of my friends and family was in that phone. I still have that phone, I always will. So Apple if you need an awesome commercial for your iPhone, Vince has got your back!!!

Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
RESPONSES:
1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC. I simply used the same iTunes login and account. I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store. If I click "Download Previous Purchases" text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered. I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam. Good response for you. Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome. I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
QUESTIONS:
3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download? Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU...
I work in the computer support section for the Military. The only problem is we use Windows , lol. Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover. I go back next month though I hope. But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein. Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself.
