Remote Functions Not Working - Rapid Scroll, Press/Hold Select, etc

I am having lots of problems with the Apple TV + remote. The "Press/Hold Select Button for more options" feature while playing songs does not work. All it does is stop the song - just like play/pause. In fact, none of the "hold" settings on the remote control work. For the initial setup I was able to fast scroll through the alphabet in setting up my account. Now whenever I try to rapid scroll through anything, it is one cursor move per click - holding the button will never move the cursor more than one position.
I have restored the Apple TV/updated its software and reset to factory settings - no change in this errant behavior.
Any suggestions? Quite frustrating!

Hi, I've experienced the same problem this week with my new Apple TV and I've changed to another HDMI connector (My TV has 3) and now Quick Scroll works perfect!!!  I hope that helps you...

  • Why is the scroll function not working after accessing the voice feature in settings?

    Why is the scroll function not working after accessing the voice feature in settings?

    For some prerecorded audio files the Transpose slider will not work reliably. I found no clear pattern, when it does and when not.
    If all fails, create a loop from the audio file. Select the region in the track and use the command "File: Add region to Loop library".
    Set the current key and tempo, name the loop, and save the loop.
    Now add it from the loop browser to a new track and delete your old track. The search field in the Loop browser will help you to find the loop quickly.
    You will be able to transpose the sample as described above, like a regular loop.
    For example - a audio file turned into a loop and transposed:

  • 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.

  • After upgrading to maverick; help & other functions not working

    After upgrading to maverick; help and other functions not working?

    Sometimes just closing and reopening the Help window will clear up the problem. If it doesn't, log out or restart the computer and try again. Otherwise, you may need to delete the Help cache.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpd
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select 
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move the selected folder to the Trash. Log out, log back in, and test. Help pages will be slow to load at first.
    If that doesn't work, the problem may be caused by network conditions. It may go away by itself, though I can't say how long you should wait.
       A persistent failure to load help data has been reported as an issue with satellite networks. Test on a different network, if possible. I've also seen at least one report that Photo Stream in iCloud can mysteriously interfere with Help. I'm not sure whether that's true, but try disabling Photo Stream, if applicable.*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect. Backup and Restore function not working. "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID"

    Not able to sign into Blackberry Protect.  Backup and Restore function not working. Message is: "Your device isn't associated with a Blackberry ID."  My Blackberry Messenger and Blackberry World is working fine so I am sure its not an ID issue on the phone.  I can sign into Link, Blackberry.com and Protect.  I see my device in Protect but cannot send messages or view it on a map.  Times out with cannot reach device message.  BB Protect on Device has a swirling circle beside the on/of switch.  Cannot turn off.  
    I have deleted Link and re-installed.
    I have reset phone to default(factory) and signed in. 
    OS level is 10.2.1.3062
    BB Link is 1.2.3.56
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I managed to figure this out myself. I had to delete the device from the Blackberry Protect website.  protect.blackberry.com.  I wiped my device again and signed in with my Blackberry ID.  I dont know if the step of wiping was necessary as I did not try my backup with the current configuration on the device following the delete.  Restore is in progress for me!

  • The button on my Ipod Touch (the big one just below the screen) will not work when I press it. Nothing happens, when before it would wake my IPod out of sleep mode, and exit out of programs I was using. Now, no reactions. What should I do?

    The button on my Ipod Touch (the big one just below the screen) will not work when I press it. Nothing happens, when before it would wake my IPod out of sleep mode, and exit out of programs I was using (ex. ITunes or Safari to main screen) . Now, no reactions. When I press the button, it appears to be more indented then it was before. What should I do? Do I need to get it fixed or replaced, or is this a problem I can fix on my own? Whatever it is, I really need some advice. Thanks in advance.

  • MDX -Children count function Not working in Case statement

    Hi,
    I am trying to create set when you slice with the Hierarchy member is leaf level , I want a output only that Leaf level .
    and When I slice with  the parent level , it has to give all the members below that parent level.
    But the problem here is when I select child member or leaf member , The first condition in the Case is not working
    WITH SET
    TESTSET AS
    CASE
    WHEN
     [Dimension].[Hierarchy].currentmember.children.count<0
    THEN
     [Dimension].[Hierarchy].currentmember
    ELSE
     DESCENDANTS([Dimension].[Hierarchy].Currentmember,,AFTER)
    END
    SELECT
    WBSSET ON 1,
    {} on 0
    FROM
     (SELECT {[Dimension].[Hierarchy].&[10]} ON COLUMNS FROM [CubeName])
    Thanks,

    Hi Santosh,
    I don't think Children count function not working in case statement, I have tested it on my local environment, here s the sample query for you reference.
    with member
    testset as
    case
    when
    [Geography].[Geography].currentmember.children.count<10
    then "X"
    else "OK"
    end
    select testset on 0,
    {[Geography].[Geography].[Country].members} on 1
    from
    [Adventure Works]
    In your scenario, the issue might be caused by the query isself, you can try to use IsLeaf Funcion to achieve your requirement. Please refer to the links below.
