Remote App on iPad not working with ATV

The remote app on my iPad (1st gen) was working fine with ATV last week. I noticed when using ATV there was a message about updating the ATV to a new version. I skipped the update each time as I just wanted to watch the program. However, we recently had a power outage which caused the ATV to shut down and I'm assuming launched the update as I didn't see the update message last night. However, I'm not able to use my iPad remote app with ATV any longer. When the remote app launches it indicates that it connected and it sees both ATV's. Yet, there is no ability to control the ATV. My iPhone 4S does not have this problem; It still works perfectly. I also have an iPad 2 and 3 and will check that shortly. Does anyone know for sure if the recent updates caused iOS 5.0 users to loose functionality?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello ElCidPhysics90,
The following article contains a number of steps that should be helpful in getting the Remote app working correctly again.

Appletv remote app and airplay not working with iphone 4S

I have the latest appleTV. I have the remote app loaded onto my ipad3 and iphone 4S. The app is not working with iphone 4S, nor do I get the airplay icon, hence I can't mirrior my phone on appleTV. It used to work. I have deleted and reloaded the app, and still nothing. It worked fined until a month ago or so. I have enabled home sharing.
The app and airlplay are working just fine with the ipad3. I have the ipad and appleTV hooked up to my router using 5Ghz, and the iphone only connects to the 2Ghz network on the same router. I don't think this is the issue, because it worked before.
Also, when I click on the remote app on the iphone, to add an itunes library, a code pops up on the phone, which I enter into itunes on my Win7 PC. Nothing seems happed on the computer when I enter the code. Could this have anything to do with recent appleTV or itunes updates? Any possible solutions?

It seems like I am having the same problem.
I have the latest AppleTV 1080, imac 27", ipad, ipad2, 2 iphone 4, all with the latest iOS. After I have the AppleTV connected, a few problems showed up:
(1) ipad plus iphones cannot airplay photo to AppleTV. After the play button and the grey screen displayed "the playing msg on AppleTV", nothing happened. it is the same for ipad/iphone.
(2) iMac not Airplay to AppleTV
(3) Airplay Mirroring not working
The following are done:
- Home sharing enabled
- To test the devices are connected. I set a passowrd for Airplay and the ipad/iphone both requested for it so they are network and devices are ok

I generated a new Itunes Account and now the App sync. does not work with theapps I bought with the old account. Is it possible to merge the old and the new account ?

It is not possible to merge Apple IDs.
Why did you create a new one?

Iphone and ipad not working with USB3?

for some 3 months now, when I connect my iphone or ipad to the pc nothing happens.
I tried to look it up in the device manager and it said: Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is an older USB device and might not work with USB3.0
Plug the device into an available USB2.0 port and click next. Otherwise, click cancel.
Anyone had the same problem? Any solution that doesn't require being a computer engineer?
Thanks

nothing else connected,
I used to simply plug the iphone or ipad and a folder will open giving me choices of what to do (open the device, copy pictures...) nothing happens anymore on both ipad iphone, I can't access them to copy the pictures, videos...

Can't figure out remote app to get it work with iPhone 3GS

I try to find some solution to get 3GS to be working with my remote app with iTunes. I was following the instructions from the following website: http://lifehacker.com/398278/remote-app-controls-itunes-playback-from-your-iphon e
It looks like the "Look for iPhone & iPod touch " from the advanced tab is missing.
Does anyone else has the same problem?

Problem Solved, Just had to play around with the firewall settings...
Cheeers !

ITunes app file sharing not working with iOS 7.1.1

After upgrading my iPad 2 to iOS 7.1.1, I can't use the app file sharing in the latest version of iTunes on Windows 7. I first noticed it with the Kindle Reader app but confirmed that it also isn't working with GoodReader, HDExplorer, and Notability. Any ideas?

It continues to be UNREAL how Apple will release iOS software without testing it. Yep. They BROKE WIFI SYNC. It no longer works on my iPhones or iPads either. UNREAL!!!!!!

App store search not working with IOS 6

Ive seen this problem here but Iv'e found no solutions. please advise. The search feature worked the 1st day, now it doesnt

Oddly I have not done anything and for whatever reason my app store now works. I can search and the whole thing functions. I did nothing along the ways of resetting. It looks totally different, and I did not get back my YOUTUBE, but am glad that I did not have to reformat and reload everything. I did try pushing the two buttons to turn it off and get the apple sign and wait to turn it back on. I did that several times but that never worked. I was ready to refomat when I got some extra time, but for now do not have to. It is working fine, and the new appstore is pretty cool. So, I dont know what happened. it did not work for about four days - but is now back functioning perfectly, and is fast as well.

IOS app touch input not working with Adobe AIR

I believe the problem here is my touch input but I'm not positive.
This is my first iOS application. I'm making the game for both Android and iOS and it works perfect on Android, however when I sent it out ot my iPhone testers, they were unable to get past my "Tap to Play" screen.
I'm using mouse events for the touch/click and this is no problem on Android and all of my research says touch events work fine for iPhones as well. Is there another way I should be handling this event?
Below is the code that loads the next swf. Again, it works perfect on PC, and multiple Android devices.
TouchToPlay.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, page1);
function page1(event: MouseEvent)
MovieClip(stage.getChildAt(0)).loadThisScreen("Menu.swf");
Like stated above, it seems as if iOS doesn't/isn't recognizing the MouseEvent. Why is this?

A major difference is Android supports Flash up to 11.2, so you can be getting away with it for that.
For mobile, there's absolutely no reason not to simply convert to using TouchEvent.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/events/TouchEvent .html
They work almost identical, simple CONST changes between (MOUSE_DOWN is TOUCH_BEGIN, etc).
What MouseEvent doesn't support is gestures, so why would you use an event model with less features like MouseEvent over Touch?

TS1741 I am having difficulty connecting my Remote App on iPad to iTunes. It used to work fine, but with latest iTunes and latest Remote, I can't get it to work. iTunes should open a 'pop up' window to add 4 digit code, but nothing happens. Any clues plea

Would appreciate in connecting Remote App on iPad to iTunes. It used to work find, before iTunes 11.0 - but now pop up window to input 4 digit code does not appear. Any ideas how to prompt window to open on iMac? Remote App works OK, but says that Home Sharing is not Turned On, although it is. Both devices are logged into my profile account.

You no longer need the 4 digit code in iTunes 11.
iTunes (10.0.1 or later)
Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
iTunes 11 or newer: Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes by going to File > Home Sharing> Turn on Home Sharing.
iTunes 10.7 or older: Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes by going to Advanced > Turn on Home Sharing.
Connect iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to a Wi-Fi network that is connected to the local network that your Mac or PC is also connected to.
Open the Remote app (software version 2.0 or later) on your mobile device.
Turn on Home Sharing in the Remote Settings screen. Make sure to sign into the same Home Sharing account you used to sign in to from iTunes on your computer.
Once Home sharing is enabled for both your computer and your mobile device, Remote app will be be able to view and control audio and video playback in your iTunes library.

AirPlay does not work with iPhone 4 s or iPad.Remote doesn´t work as well

AirPlay does not work with iPhone 4 s or iPad.Remote doesn´t work as well.
WLAN is working, I can use Youtube on my AppleTV, but I can´t connect to my computer or use airplay on my iPhone or iPad.

Something is not configured correctly that is creating issues with your AppleTV. You can disconnect it from the TV and power, and then plug it into your computer with a micro-USB cable. After launching iTunes on your computer, you will be able to restore it to default settings and upgrade the software.

IPhone remote app disconnects, iPad does not

Environment Info
Windows 7 64-bit
iTunes 12.1.2.27
Latest update on iPhone and iPad
Remote app
Single network, single wireless access point
I have home sharing turned on in iTunes, I play my music throughout my entire house from my PC and control via the remote app. I migrated my iTunes library to another PC and I am now having remote issues. Now the remote app frequently disconnects after my phone locks and the only way I can get it to reconnect is by turning off home sharing and back on again. I've made sure to turn off sharing on the other PC, and uninstalled iTunes.
After some testing it seems that the disconnect does not happen on my iPad, only my iPhone. I've gone through the home sharing troubleshooting page, obviously my home sharing is working, just not all the time. I have to turn it off and on again to kick in the head. I've also disabled IPv6 as well.

Hmmm interesting, I'll have to see if I can change that option. This isn't my setup, its a friends.
I may have been running into a different issue. I got down and dirty and pulled out Wireshark to see what was happening and found some interesting things. My friend has two wireless access points and I was wondering if we were running into an issue with WiFi going into sleep mode on the phone and the remote app timeout while waiting for the wireless connection.
I disabled the second AP and things seemed to work better, but the remote would still fail to connect once in a while. Thats when I saw that the remote app makes a DNS SRV request looking for a PC on the network that has iTunes, so I looked at the DNS settings on the iPhone and noticed that DNS was pointing to two ISP DNS servers first, then the internal router DNS. I swapped the internal DNS first, and ISP DNS second, renewed the DHCP lease on the phone and things are working great now.
Either way it seems like the remote app is a bit tempermental with its timeout, it seems like it either gets stuck looking while it waits for WiFi or a DNS response. But at least its working much better now, sorry for the long post.

TS1741 I cannot get the remote app for Apple tv work on either my iPad or iPhone. Home sharing is "on". Any ideas?

Why won' remote app for Apple tv work on my iPad or iPhone? Home sharing is turned on.

A frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is the service being blocked on the network. Make sure your network isn't hidden, has a unique name, that MAC address authentication is disabled, security is set to use WPA 2 Personal and that there is only one router/device acting as a DHCP server and providing NAT services.
Make sure your router/computer allows access over the following ports
Port
Type
Protocol
Used By
80
TCP
HTTP
AirPlay
443
TCP
HTTPS
AirPlay
554

Bonjour/AirPlay
Refer to your router manual/manufacturer for any settings that are specific to that model.
Another frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is security software, in many cases configuring it correctly, disabling it or even uninstalling it can help, but in some cases the security software can cause problems that simply reconfiguring, disabling or uninstalling cannot reverse.
If you are consistently unable to activate AirPlay, have tried all the steps in this article and have security software installed on your system, you might benefit from contacting its provider or participating in any online forums they run to discuss the matter with them

The app store is not working or loading on my Macbook Pro, iphone and ipad

The app store is not working or loading on my Macbook Pro, iphone and ipad
Today When I tried to open the app store on my ipad I found out that's the store is not working,,, It's giving me the loading screen like for ever without any error message. So I tried my Macbook and my iphone and it was the same,,,, I thought it was from the connection so I tried several different connections and It was the same.
Any Idea what is going on with the app store ?

The App Store app on your iPhone in your iPad is a different App Store than the app store app on your Mac. You use the same account for both app stores. So I would guess that the real issue is perhaps something to do with your Home Network. You might try rebooting your modem/router. Also, turn off any antiviral software, firewalls or apps such as Little Snitch.
