Remote not working with Apple TV

My Apple remote stopped working with my Apple TV the other day. The light on the Apple TV does flash as buttons are pressed, but nothing happens. I tried to pair the Apple remote, nothing. I tried to pair my Macbook remote, nothing. I have even pulled the plug a let it sit for a day before plugging it back in. I have recently upgraded to iTunes 7.3.
Thanks

What does it do when you connect it back up and turn it on, what screen do you get etc.

  • Gmail suddenly not working with Apple Mail

    My gmail suddenly is not working with Apple Mail.
    It said my username or password is wrong, but it was okay this morning.
    Nevertheless, I deleted my gmail account, and re-setup it using Internet Accounts from System Preference.
    However, I got the beow message:
    There was a problem setting up the Mail account. An unknown error occurred.
    I am sure my username and password are correct because I just login it using Safari.
    Does anyone know what the cause is?
    Please help~~~

    Gmail not syncing in mac mail is a problem that is also in snow leopard since the new year.
    OSX 10.6.8  is the highest OS that will run on an Intel Core 2 Duo.  Do not try to install Mavericks on this machine! I will install, but turns it into a dinosaur and many programs will no longer run.
    I had an issue with Mac Mail not syncing with imap.gmail.com. and Safari not being able to find apple.com.
    This was resolved by working with an upper level tech support member for several hours deleating particular system library files, uninstalling most addons, reseting system network settings and a whole lot more! (too much to name here)
    Thank you Apple Tech Support.

  • Why is Adobe Flashplayer not working with Apple? Do you have an other flash program you recommend?

    Why is Adobe Flashplayer not working with Apple? Do you have an other flash program you recommend?

    Thank you for your interest in Adobe Flash Player. Unfortunately Apple does not allow Flash Player to be installed on iPhone or iPad.
    May I add, this is the answer I get When I try to Download Adobe Flash Player
    You get the message because that is exactly the situation. Apple has not allowed any Flash on iOS devices.
    What site are you trying to see? Many sites now provide Flash alternatives. For example, if you want to listen to Pandora, instead of using the Flash on the Pandora website, instead you download the Pandora app for the iPad.
    In the future, even if Apple wants to add Flash to the iPad, it won't be able to because Adobe will no longer be making it at all, for any mobile device:

    If you often go to sites that use a lot of Flash and they don't have an alternative, you should write to them and tell them to stop using Flash.

  • Home sharing does not work with apple tv

    Can anyone help me.  I used to be able to stream all content from my home master computer to my Apply TV.  Now it suddenly does not work.
    Apple TV itself works just fine.  I can also airplay using it with out IPADs.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes.  Reset the modem/router.  Reset Appletv.  Tried with Norton disabled.  etc.
    Nothing seems to work. 
    I keep getting the 'Turn on your home sharing in Itunes' message.   But it is on.
    Help is appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Sometimes just disabling Norton isn't enough, you may need to hunt down every last file it has written to your computer then re-install iTunes. I understand Norton can be quite a nasty little intrusion.
    I know very little about PC's or security software as I have neither, but the following article might help you.

  • IPhone (3,3G,4) does not work with Apple Universal Dock.

    I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch that has been upgraded to iOS 4. My iPod Touch will no longer sync via the Apple Universal Dock. Also, my new iPhone 4 also will not sync via the Apple Universal Dock.

    Trust a geek not to give up. I decided to get to the bottom of the "iOS device does not work with the Apple Universal Dock" problem. I noticed that the iPhone 4 and iPad came with slightly different USB-Dock adapter cables. I wondered if that might be the issue. My Apple Universal Dock was connected to my Mac via the original dock adapter cables which are slightly larger. I connected the newer cables between the Mac and the Apple Universal Dock and .... voila! Both the iPod Touch with iOS 4 and the iPhone can now connect via the Apple Universal Dock. Apple changed something in the way the adapter cables function.
    Of course I still have the problem with the car head unit dock adapter ... Sigh. I'll have to call Best Buy ( uughh! ) and find out if they'll do the update for me. The were the vendor authorized installer.

  • Remotes will not work with Apple TV

    I am so very frustrated with my Apple TV right now. It has worked flawlessly for over a year, using both the Apple TV remote and the Apple remote on my iPhone.
    A couple of weeks ago, my ATV Remote stopped working, but I figured it was the battery. I happily continued with the iPhone Remote, but then yesterday that also stopped working. I replaced the ATV Remote, but still no luck. I have tried re-pairing the ATV and ATV Remote, but get no flashes of confirmation.
    I finally hooked up the ATV to my PC via Firewire and restored it to original. I hooked it back up to my TV and it came on with all of channels that I am used to seeing. However, STILL no communication between either of the remotes.
    If I had not recently purchased a great speaker set for the ATV television (main room), I would just chuck it and get another Roku, but I would miss my iTunes music soooo much.
    Can anyone help???

    Thanks, Vazndrew, for the reply.
    As a last resort, today I deleted the remote app from my 5S, reinstalled it, but I am still getting the message: "Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer or on Apple TV using the account XXXXX.com"
    Since the beginning of this fiasco, I have turned Home Sharing on and off and on again in iTunes on my computer, and verified it is also turned on on my 5S. I have no idea how to turn it on in the ATV since I cannot get a remote to work. Hooking it up to the PC does not seem to give that option either.
    Not sure if I should see it or not, but hooked up to the the PC, in iTunes the ATV does not show as a device.

  • Apple Remote not working with Mac Mini

    Hi there,
    I woke up to quite a strange problem today... My Apple Remote is no longer working with my Mac Mini! I tried all the controls, including launching front row, and the volume controls - but no go...
    I even tried it in Windows BootCamp under iTunes, but it still wouldn't work..
    I tried pairing it in System preferences, but again, it wouldn't recognise my apple remote when i held down the Menu+fast forward keys for 5 seconds...
    The weird thing is, it works fine with my iMac on another floor (out of plain sight from my Mini..), and it isn't paired with the iMac or anything...
    Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks in advance!

    So you got a dead remote or a dead battery. Call AppleCare and it will be taken care of. What's the big deal? These things happen from time to time.

  • Remote Not Working With QuickTime 7.3.0

    Hi I just upgraded and realized my frontrow remote has stopped working with Quicktime. The remote works with VLC, iTunes etc but not QT. Forget about scanning forward or backward it cant even adjust the volume. I never had the problem before. I have tried playing both avi and mp4 files.

    As a follow up -
    I spoke with Apple Support about this and was routed to a few people who were helpful, and moved it up to the engineers of Keynote (and the white remote?) for a solution.
    A few days later I received this reply:
    Hello Eric, I have heard back from the engineers about this. It looks like as long as Keynote 6.0 is present on the system it will default to using the remove in that application. If you remove Keynote 6.0, which we would not recommend, then you can use Keynote 5.3 with the remote. Presently though this is normal and expected behavior.
    I replied by expressing my disappointment that this wasn't functional, since I'm not comfortable using Keynote 6.0 yet.  Short of uninstalling 6.0, the only workaround I have found is to use the iPhone/iTouch Keynote remote app, or make a duplicate copy of your presentation to be opened in 6.0 (and using the remote there).

    The Apple TV remote controller works fine if the lid is open at a distance of 15 feet.  Once the lid is closed, however, the remote controller stops working.  It was working fine previously.  The remote works fine with other appliances and applications, such as Apple TV as well as the MBP when the lid is open, so I believe the batteries are fine.
    Any help would be most appreciated.  Thank you.

  • Remote not working with WinXP 64

    I have a X-FI Platinum card with the front module and remote. Under WinXP Pro everything worked fine. I have since upgraded to WinXP 64 bit Pro and the remote does not work.
    I have installed the latest driver for WinXP 64 (At least last weeks driver) which went OK. Soundcard seems to work OK. I have a 5. speaker setup and I get sound from all speakers. Before there was the createi've audio console that was in the system tray, but that doesn't seem to be there with WinXP 64.
    Is there another download that I need to do for the Remote to function ? Also I no longer have any sound test options in the audio console is there another download for that as well ??System Specs:ASUS P5N32 SLI Deluxe MOBOIntel P4 660 processor2 GB RAMBFG 7800 GT video cardX-FI Platinum sound cardWinXP Pro 64 bit?Thanks,?wstreaker

    I am not sure whether the remote software gets installed with the 64 bit drivers or not. I know some people have turned to alternate software to control the remote on WinXP 64 bit edition successfully. I am sure you can find out what I mean by searching these forums, I am not allowed to say any more than that. Hope that helps?

  • Remote not working with new Mac Book Pro

    Had my 2.16 MBP for 2 days and cannot get the remote to work. The IR is not disabled, but I cannot select the UNPAIR option so I am guessing the remote is not paired with the MBP.
    I am pressing the Menu and FFD button, but nothing appears to happen.
    Has anyone got any suggestions as to what to try next ?
    Thanks
    Mark

    Hi Mate,
    I read this once somewhere hope it helps..
    A great way to tell whether your remote control is working or not is to point it at the camera while you have Photo Booth running. The camera somehow picks up the IR signal and translates it into the visible, which I think is hilarious. It works with any IR remote control.
    If your remote is eating up batteries that fast, it might have some kind of short circuit. I'd get it replaced.

  • Mail Message URLs like message: ... not working with Apple Mail any more

    Links to certain messages are not working for me any more. For example if I drag a Mail to TextEdit Mac OS X creates a correct Link with the scheme: message:<... etc. Those links should open the linked message in Apple Mail. This seems broken for me.
    Is there a way to reenable this functionality, via Terminal or so?
    I have to admit that I used Sparrow for a short time. It looks like this stole the message-linking. Now I completely removed Sparrow, but it is still not working again with Apple Mail. Any suggestions?
    Kind regards,
    Markus

    nope, same result with the flags, and now my eyes are burning from having used outlook mode instead of classic mode.
