Remotes Not Controlling Power or Volume

I have a multiroom dvr system. My main tv with dvr has no remote control problems.
My 2 additional tvs are both having remote problems. The FIOS remotes no longer control the power or the volume on the tvs. The original tv remotes can still perform both these functions, which is annoying but manageable. Do I need new FIOS remotes?

from my experience, if it's two remotes that go down or have problems and no longer control the tv's, it's because the remotes got switched. so try taking one control and move it to the other room that is having problems and vice versa and try the remotes again. if it's still having a problem, then just make sure the batteries are good and then you can re-program the remotes. instructions are inside the cable boxes themselves, inside the menu
you go to MENU -> HELP -> IN HOME AGENT -> REMOTE CONTROLS.
and then it will show you how to program the remote for your TV.
Try swapping them first, It happened to me and a couple of my friends.

Programming sky remote to control new TV

We've just bought a new TV so have tried to programme the Sky remote to control the TV volume but to no availAll instructions have been followed -Sky remote is a Rev9TV is a Panasonic TX40C 300B Codes tried are: 166406782505167802540051 It has worked to control everything BUT the volume! We've tried resetting it by taking batteries out, holding select button for 30 secs etc but it still won't control the volume there any other codes to try? Any suggestions gratefully received!

How do I get my Apple TV NOT to control my Macbook volume?

We just recently bought an Apple TV. We synced it to our new remote to control volume and everything. Now, when we're on the Apple TV, when we move up and down on the screen, my volume on my Macbook Pro goes up and down with the tv. How do I get that to NOT happen.

If you don't want to use a remote with your computer the easiest thing to do is just to turn the IR off. (System Preferences > Security > General, click on the Advanced button in the bottom right corner - If the button is greyed out, click on the lock icon and enter your administrators password)
If you still want to use your computer remote then you must pair your computers remote with the computer AND the Apple TV remote with the Apple TV.
To pair a remote with a device hold down the menu and FF buttons together for six seconds or until you see a chain icon on screen (best take the computer into another room, or turn it off, when you do this)

HT204492 my apple remote wont control the volume?? any ideas??

my apple remote wont control the volume in my itunes, any ideas??

Not via the Mac. I just hooked up a TV to mine via HDMI and it shows the It comes up with the volume logo on the screen with a line through it, when I select audio output via HDMI. If you select another audio output like internal speaker yo can change volume.

I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
There will be no audio output in safe mode. The question to be answered by the test is whether any devices are listed in the Sound preference pane. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

X-FI Platinum remote will not control Crystaliz

Hi,
installed the soundcard and the remote did control the Crystalizer(when enabled) but now it will not.
It will control volume and other functions.
Think it is since I downloaded the driver update.
Also in play control when I go to use the mic there is permanant delay/echo on even tho the fx are all disabled.
Anyone?

same thing happens to me, I don't know why. The only suspicious thing I did was quit from loading at windows start the cd/dvd detector,creative media source detector,creative media source go,creative updreg, but when I put them again the wheels didn't work...Message Edited by abyss696 on 2-04-2006:49 PM

Using apple remote to control iTunes volume

This must have been covered before. I searched through 12 pages and couldn't find the answer. I simply want to be able to control the iTunes volume with my white apple remote. Presently it will only control system volume and I'm going out to a different device where system volume has no effect.
This is for Snow Leopard. Appreciate the help.

I too play iTunes to remote speakers (airplay express, apple TV, IOS devices running Speakers app.) The volume buttons on my Macbook Air control the laptop speakers but won't control the iTunes application volume when playing Airplay. Going to iTunes to click on a slider is frustrating when there are volume buttons on the laptop.
Another App solution is Airfoil from http://www.rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/mac/
There is a cost and I don't have a free Apple/Mac solution. But with Airfoil, you can link the volume bottons to Airplay volume. This is really a preference that iTunes should inherently provide. But with Airfoil, I can push any audio app (Pandora, Spotify, browser audio, and even iTunes) to any number of speakers both Airplay and computer. And Airfoil will link the volume buttons to the audio output on any of the speakers selected. I no longer use the Airplay option from within iTunes but use Airfoil to push iTunes whereever I want and properly control volume.
Hope this helps. Sorry it is a third party pay app as the solution when Apple could just incorporate this simple request.

Presence status not changed when using Lync 2010 Remote Call Control

Hello,
I'm currently testing the Remote Call Control functionality of Lync 2010. Call management works fine but I'm surprised that my presence status does not change to "In a Call" when the call is established.
OriginatedEvent, DeliveredEvent and EstablishedEvent are forwarded correctly to Lync Client 2010. All responses are "200 OK".
Is there something more to send to Lync Server 2010 so the status of the Lync Client gets correctly updated to "In a Call" ? Or is a plugin for the Lync Client necessary to achieve this ?
Thank you in advance,
Martin

I think there's something missing from your scenario and I don't believe you would need a plugin for this. It's been forever since I've set up RCC with Lync 2010 however. I know this isn't what you're looking for, but I've used this product in
the past to configure Lync and RCC with third party PBXs that don't support Lync/RCC but do have a TAPI interface.
http://www.estos.com/products/drivers-middleware/callcontrolgateway400.html I've been able to get a free trial before and it worked like a charm for an old 3COM phone system. If you can get a trial it might help you compare apples to apples provided
you have a TAPI driver for your PBX.

Just installed ios 7 on my 4s, and I have two issues: 1) control centre: the music controls do not work, only the volume adjust slider works; 2) in mail, where do you find the setting to control how many messages you want your inbox to retain?

Same problem here on my 4s: Control center music controls do not work.
Since this thread has two issues, I'm going to start a new one with only the music control bug. Topic: iOS 7 Control Center Music Controls Not Working On iPhone 4s

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
volume controls issues are windows, not firefox.

F11/F12 Volume Graphic Working, Not Controlling Actual Volume

First, I'm on a brand spanking new, few week old 2014 15" Retina.
I can press my F11/F12 volume buttons all day long, and even watch the graphic move each volume block left and right accordingly, but it isn't corresponding with the actual volume. The volume stays untouched, not getting louder or soft. I have the proper output source selected.
Tried a PRAM reset and rebooted several times.
I work in music, so most of the day I'm plugged into an Apogee Duet audio interface and using that as my audio output source. I've updated to their Yosemite-approved driver, but am still having some troubles with the interface (F11/F12 volume control delay, sometimes not controlling at all), so I'm wondering if there is a correlation between those issues and this.
Any thoughts?

Does the machine produce a feedback sound when you press the volume-up/down button?
No - no feedback or any sound at all.
Does it work when you change the volume on the sound control panel?
And by "sound control panel", what exactly are you referring to? The speaker icon I have on my apple menu up top near the clock, battery and such? Or the volume slider under "sound" in system preferences?
Here is a more specific breakdown that might show the issue I am having a little more clearly:
I currently have my internal speakers selected as my device for sound output. I am playing a track in iTunes.
I am starting with what I know works - the volume slider under "sound" in system preferences. This properly and completely controls my volume up and down + mutes the sound when I check the mute box. I'm now going to keep that volume slider about half way with the track continuing to play.
Now, when I try to turn up/down my volume via F11/F12, the speaker icon pops up and the volume blocks visually change accordingly. However, the actual audible volume does nothing at all. It stays exactly the same. However, if I decrease the volume all the way to value 0, it does mute the sound. It just doesn't do anything else otherwise.
When I try to turn up/down my volume via the speaker icon on the top apple menu bar, it does nothing to change the volume either, until I hit value 0, at which point it mutes the sound.
So both F11/F12 and the speaker icon on the apple menu bar are both functioning, or should I say malfunctioning, in the same manner. Both will mute when at 0, but once past that point, the volume stays where it was previously at (which I can only set via "sound" in system preferences) no matter how I adjust the volume.
Sorry if I over-explained that. Just have no clue what is going on.

Phillips Remote does not control Visio A/V Input button

Hi:
I have tried all the available Vizio codes, but the remote's A/V Input button does not control the TV's input selection. Anybody have any luck with this?
Thanks,
Vin

Just a note on this. I seems like every TV manfacturer does the input controls very differently. Because of this the input selection may not work using the verizon remote. for example on some TV's you may have to press INPUT and then use arrow buttons on the TV remote to navigate to the right input. well that is not going to work with the verizon remote because the arrow buttons on the veriozn remote are just for controlling the Set Top Box
