Requesting a New Remote Control

One of our remote controls wound up in the washing machine along with the bed sheets. It's no longer working, even though we dried it out and changed the batteries. Is there a way to obtain a new remote control?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

you can order a new one (free) without having to call in and wait on hold.  you have to download the VZ in home agent to your PC (www.verizon.com/connect) and then once it's installed, you open the program, go to the tv section, then click on the remote and then you'll see "order new remote control"
its fast and easy.

  • Creative Megaworks 250D 2.1 THX: How can I find a new remote control & spare satellite(s)?

    Hi all,
    For years, we have owned and used one remarkable speaker set from Creative:
    The Creative Megaworks (Cambridge Soundworks) 250D 2.1 THX-certified speakers!
    I have no complaints. The sound this small 2.1 set produces is amazing! The 300 watts (RMS) power can shake the whole house - x50W + 2x75W are more than enough! Movies, music, games, everything sounds great - bass is deep and clear, mid-range is good, high frequences are clear! There's no noise and no distortion (I have connected the system to an SPDIF digital connector on my sound card), the Signal-to-Noise ratio is 99 dB, and the frequency response of the set is extremely good, too!
    But I have a problem, now. We have broken, by accident, one of the satellites. Now I have only one satellite, and the bass/amplifier with the remote control... Looks like a . system... ;-)
    This system was a present for us. Maybe we were lucky, but I am very happy with the build quality of this Creative spaker set. Until we have broken one of the satellites ourselves, yesterday, everything was OK, and the sound it produced was amazing all these years...
    I tried to contact a Creative representative, asking if we can maybe order one (or two) spare satellites fot this set, but the only reply (up to now) was:
    "You are out of warranty period. Buy a new speaker set."
    Well, we could, I guess...
    But:
    First: Creative does not have (at present) a similar model, 2.1, THX certified, with digital (SPDIF input), 300W+ RMS, 99 dB Signal-to-Noise.
    Second, to throw away such an amazing set just because there's one satellite broken? That would be such pity! :-(
    I'd like to buy one (or two) new 250D satellites. I was thinking even that, in the worst case, I can maybe try to order 2 satellites from a Creative Gigaworks S750 set. They have very similar characteristics, 70W rms power, 8 ohms, so maybe this'll work. I was trying to check today if two satellites can be ordered, but with no luck up to now... :-(
    Does anyone have any similar experience? What do you do if you accidentally have broken up one satellite from a 2./5./7. expensi've speaker set? Should you throw away the whole set? Try to find similar satellites?
    I hope Creative support will help, but I don't have much hope, at present...
    Does anyone have experience connecting an S750 satellite to a 250D system? Can I expect any problems? Or it'll work?
    Finally, just one more question:
    The remote control.
    Currently, the remote control unit on our 250D model works OK. But I am a bit worried, if anything happens, that the speaker set can become useless. So I'd like to order one spare new remote control for this model, just in case. Can someone help?
    Maybe, even if this speaker set is not produced anymore, a new remote control can be ordered from Creative?
    I'd really like to make these 250D speakers produce great sound again!? I am a big Creative fan and Creative 250D 2.1 THX is one of the best sound systems I have ever owned (or heard) and I'd like to do everyting to fix things up...
    Thanks for all the help!
    Cheers! :-)
    PS The satellites of the 250D look very much like these. But these Cambridge Soundworks satellites are more powerful (20W RMS); I was even thinking to order a pair of them, but not sure if they'll fit well. Maybe a pair of S750 satellites (70W RMS) is a better idea? But in any case, if I can find a new pair of satellites, what to do with the remote control?... Please, help!

    After exchanging several messages with official Creative Support, I feel a bit disappointed... For years, I have believed that Creative is a company that makes amazing audio products. They probably still do, but now that I am a customer who owns an expensive product of theirs, but with expired warranty, they don't want even to suggest a solution that can work for both parties!
    Why is Creative Support so un-supportive? :-( I am still a Creative customer, after all, right?
    My communication with Support went nowhere. After it was established that our 250D system is out of warranty period (it is only 2 years, btw), they refused to sell me a replacement satellite (even if they still may have some left in stock, for such cases)!
    Finally, I found S700 satellites on ebay and I hope that 2 of them will fit well with the 250D system. Impedance of 250D satellites is 8 ohms (S700 satellites are 8 ohms, too), power is almost the same (250D satellites are 75W rms, and S700 are 70W rms), Signal-to-Noise of both systems is 99 dB, and frequency response is similar, too (250D satellites should be around 50Hz - 8 kHz, I think, and S700 should be around 50Hz - 20 kHz).
    Well, my final 'point of worry' was that if anything happens with the remote control, we won't be able to switch on/off the system, even if the sub/amplifier works. So, I tried to ask Support just to sell me one new remote control, if they can. To sell, not to give for free, mind this! ;-)
    They refused!
    My e-mails are either left un-answered, or the only kind of reply I get is 'We can offer you 10% off our new products'. Well, I don't want to buy a whole new expensi've system, if I can just get 1-2 replacement parts for my old one, and have it working for years! :-)
    (Imagine you buy an expensive DSLR camera, you break the LCD screen, and imagine how Canon or Nikon refuse to sell you a replacement LCD, because you're out of warranty! I can't imagine that!)
    Well, with Creative it looks like this works only this way: Buy a new system. While speaker system is within its warranty period, Creative may replace defecti've and/or broken parts. Once system is out of warranty period, you can simply throw the system away, as Creative will not sell you replacement parts, no matter how politely you ask (and no matter if such parts are available at Creative or not)!
    I hope I will be able to use our 250D system for some more time (after the satellites arrive). I don't know how I can find a new remote control, just to be on the safe side.
    And I am not sure I will buy Creative product next time. I will carefully look around and maybe will pick up a product from a company which will offer me not only warranty support, but out-of-warranty support, too. That would be wise.
    I like how the high-end Creative speaker systems sound. I simply cannot understand how this company can be successful, if they make such great products, but then refuse to help its customers, when they have problems... :-(

    looking 4 the same thing. I thought of having the cable cut +
    a new cable soldered or joined inbetween but did not really want to
    do that until I got another wired remote but they wont supply them (yet?).
    I rang Keene Electronics 0870 990 9000 &
    they asked for an email [email protected] or a
    letter giving as much info as pos preferable with a
    photo and measurements. I have not got round to doing that as
    yet.Hope this is of some use,let me no if u have got the
    cable please(if so how and where) or if u have any joy,
    cheers, editman

  • Remote control not working

    The remote control for one of my TVs is not working. We inserted new batteries and also checked all cable connections. We tried one of the other remote controls and the TV responded. How do we get a new remote control ?? We tried calling ATT but could not get through.
    Thank you in advance
    Mojo612

    The original remote is not controlling the TV or the STB or both?
    Try pressing the att button, then see how it works.
    The two TVS are the same? They both use the same IR.

  • Replacement remote control will not control DVR player

    My "S10" remote failed after 2 or 3 years.  I ordered a replacement from the Uverse store.  It seems that the new remote control doesn't have all the features of the older design.  Speciffically, it is not equipped to handle a DVD player.  It is irresponsible to replace an item with one which has fewer features.  I need a replacement for my broken "S10" control.  This new one can only be described as a DEFECTIVE DESIGN as it eliminates a needed key feature.

     -
    Do you have more than one TV? Use the s-20 for the simple TV & move the s-10 to the one with the DVD player.
    Many people have posted that they have found  s-10 remotes at the local thrift store or on e-bay.
    Here is another alternative - http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=RCRP05BR

  • I am a newer about LabVIEW.How can I realize a remote control in a Web brower.

    "To transform your application into a remote laboratory, make sure the VI that you want to publish is loaded into LabVIEW memory. Next, select the Web Publishing Tool option from the Tools menu. This window is the main window for interactively creating and publishing your remote laboratory
    The Web publishing tool will automatically load in the Document Title and VI Name text fields. As the sample image in Figure 6 illustrates, the Document Title, Text 1, and Text 2 are all text fields that you can use to customize the Web page created with the publishing tool.
    The second step necessary to enable a remote laboratory is to select the Start Web Server button. When pressed, this button activates the built-in LabVIEW Web server, which will publish and control your front panel images from the Internet.
    Once the Web server is activated, the actual HTML document needs to be created and saved so it can be accessed remotely. Clicking on Save to Disk places an HTML file called Document Title.htm into the LabVIEW file folder called WWW by default. Saving your Remote Panels HTML documents into this folder will ensure that the LabVIEW Web server can find them. Either keep the default name, or assign a new name and save the file. Once saved, a new panel entitled Document URL pops up with a message box containing the URL address of your enabled LabVIEW application.
    Click on OK in the Document URL window and then click on Done in the Web Publishing Tool window. Your lab is now ready for remote visitors
    Required Software
    To operate a LabVIEW program using remote panels, it is necessary to have the free LabVIEW run-time engine installed on the client computer. When a remote viewer logs onto the lab with the appropriate URL address, the LabVIEW front panel will appear in the browser, or reroute the user to install the run-time engine from the National Instruments Web site.
    Application Control
    Once connected to the remote laboratory, the client connection will automatically be in a monitor state. If another client is controlling the remote laboratory, the user will be able to monitor the actions of the controlling client. To request control of the program, right click on the front panel and select Request Control. Once selected, one of two possible messages will appear. Either the user will be granted control (Control Granted), or the user will see a message indicating that control is currently granted to another user (Waiting for control: Either the server is locked or another client has control). If another client has control, the controlling client will be notified that control time has now become limited. Once the timeout occurs or the controlling client has released control, application control is automatically switched to the requesting client (Control Granted). Once the user has been granted control, all icons and controls will become active and running the LabVIEW application is exactly like running the application from the local environment.
    Releasing Control
    When the remote viewer either moves on to a different URL address or relinquishes control by right clicking and selecting (Release Control), or when the remote laboratory times out, the remote laboratory is available to the next visitor."
    The above is what I read from a text of ni.com,
    but I can not obtain the result.
    Thanks a lot!
    ^^

    Hi
    I don't see which LV version you are using. It's important to know, that you need the FDS or PDS package of LV 6.1 to work with remote control. This feature is not supported in the LV base package of LV 6.1.
    If you have LV 6.1 FDS or PDS, which of the described steps are not working?

  • Remotely control the ITunes on Windows 7 64 bit PC with the new IPad

    With the latest version of ITunes for both Win7 and the new IPad, I'm only able to use the new IPad to remotely control the ITunes on Windows 7 64 bit PC through wired connection  ( ethernet cable ) to the wireless router. As soon as I connect my PC through wireless connection, the new IPad can not find my libraries.
    Is this a known issue or am I missing some settings?

  • How to backup new learned remote-control data for the IR-remote APP???

    Hello @ all,
    does anybody know a way to backup the new learned remote control on XPERIA Z Tablet?
    I found a database under:
    "system/vendor/etc/sony-ir-remote/db"
    But after I've saved new learned remote controls the date and the size of these DB's
    are the same as before. Therefore the IR-remote control APP dosn't save the new data
    in these files.
    Furthermore there isn't a button in the remote-control APP to backup new learned remote controls.
    And I can't choose the remote control APP in the backup function APP from the XPERIA Z Tablet
    to save the data. Also the backup with the Sony PC Companion Software dosn't save the learned
    remote controls. Who develops such a dross mobile software?
    Sorry SONY, but you have the most unpalatable support I've lived to see!
    The first SONY support center refered me to another support center.
    The mobile support center does not answer to my questions per mail.
    Then I call the mobile support center. The answers were shallow and standard.
    The support engineer want to ask the development and call back.
    However, I am still waiting for promised recall.

    I am facing the same problem.
    I have spend a few days to configure and train my Sony tablet to configure for all my remotes such as aircon and lighting. I did a backup using the Sony companion to my PC. When my tablet was faulty and serviced. But the backup did not recover the IR remote settings and codes which I programmed previously. I also tried your backup restore app but it also does not save the configuration.
    It is VERY IMPORTANT for me to backup the settings.
    Please provide the folders and path of where the IR REMOTE settings and personal configuration and codes trained were kept so that I could back them up. Are these path protected area that required rooted access?
    Hope that Sony could update the app to include backup of new trained codes and settings and in the meantime to provide a procedure of how to backup the setting and trained IR codes with or without rooting the device.

  • CUP 5.3: Mitigating from Request and approval of new created control

    Hi,
    I have activated in RAR that new created controls need to be approved and this works fine when creating the control in RAR.
    when creating the mitigating control from CUP within the request with the "Mitigate"-button the control is created directly in RAR without starting the approval workflow the new controls.
    Is this a bug or do I need to configured somewhere that the workflow should be also triggered when a control is created via CUP?
    Best regards
    Marco

    Hi Marco,
       I know this is an important functionality but it is not available in CUP as of now. Some of my customers are looking for this. You should open an enhancement request for this. I have also encouraged my clients to open an enhancement request for this. I am hoping SAP fixes this ASAP.

  • No "New Remote Move Request" option anymore

    We have been migrating mailboxes from Ex2010SP1 to Office365 using the EMC, and it's generally been going well. However, several of the migration mailboxes failed, and I could remove the move request from the O365 forest without issues and the mailbox
    would become available for migrating again, but several of them do not. They have stayed with the green icon as though they should still be migrating, yet they have no move request left as I deleted the failed move requests. (I confirmed via
    Powershell). It has been several days for most of these ones, yet they still are not available to migrate again. Other mailboxes that have not yet migrated are still available and have the option to do a "New Remote Move Request" as normal.
    Has anyone else encountered this or have any suggestions for a solution to make them available to migrate again?

  • How to use the *new* "per-user remote control"?

    Per the ARD discription page at:  http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/apple-remote-desktop/id409907375?mt=12
    It says under "Whats New in 3.5.1":
    "Per-user remote control
    You can remotely log in to a Mac with any user account on that computer and control it, without interrupting someone else who might be using the computer under a different login.
    How can I do this?  I can't seem to find the ability.  If I use ARD in it's "normal" mode, I am on the user's console at the same time they are.... I want to be "underneath" the console without affecting them.

    That capability is only available if your client systems are running Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. See:

  • HT1619 Pairing an old remote control with a new mac

    Hi. My name is Roberto. Got a new macbook pro and tried to pair it with a three year old remote control pressing the menu and fast fwd button for 5 secs with little luck! Any advise?

    There are steps to pair an apple remote with your computer here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1619
    I've been having the same difficulty as you trying to pair my new macbook air with an old remote control.
    I try following the steps from the link above but when following the steps, I run into the problem where I can't find the "infrared receiver" in my Security & Privacy. It turns out that my new macbook air does not have an infrared receiver to pair with the infrared output of the remote. Therefore, my old apple remote just won't pair with my new macbook and I'm assuming this might be the same for your new macbook pro. Sorry for the bad news.
