Use REMOTE on iPad only to request songs

I'm preparing a music set-up for a birthday party. I want to use a play-list on my Mac Mini and let the guests only request songs via Remote App installed on my iPad. With my iPhone I want to have Master Control (skip, volume etc.)
My problem is that my guests must not be able to skip songs or adjust volume when using iPad for song requests. I can not make Remote App on my iPad act the same as on my iPhone. I can only use my iPhone as a request song Remote.
Is there a way to make the Remote App work exactly the same on my iPad as on my iPhone or is there an alternative application available for requesting songs on iTunes (Mac Mini) via iPad ?

Have you turned on homesharing on the Apple TV and iPad.

Try to force quit your mail app. Double tap the home button. You'll see the app icons and previews on the screen. Scroll sideways if needed to bring the mail app up on the screen. Flick the preview up and off the screen to close the app. Tap on the home screen preview to exit the mode.

Music App on iPad Only Showing SOME Songs...

...yet ALL songs appear to be ON THE IPAD when viewed in iTunes on my MacBook with the iPad connected to my MacBook
So here's my issue and Googling for days has only produced a bunch of theories and random guesses at a solution but no real solution. Here we go: With my iPad 2 (ver. 5.1.1) connected to my MacBook, I drag a handful of MP3s (audiobook tracks) onto my iPad. Using iTunes on my MacBook, I create some Playlists on the iPAd for these new tracks.
Then, I press the Sync button in iTunes to ensure that what I have just done on the iPad in iTunes on my MacBook actually syncronizes with the iPad. Everything looks good. With the iPad still connected, in iTunes I can see the handful of new tracks I just dragged over onto the iPad and they actually appear in the correct Smart Playlist I made.
However...
When I disconnect the iPad from the MacBook, then open up the Music app on the iPad, I cannot see my new MP3 tracks anywhre on the iPad and the new Playlist is empty.
Now, keep in mind that SOME tracks transfer and are visible in Music. However, it is not 100% consistent and it fails more often than it is successful.
I have tried deleting the tracks and the Playlists from the iPad entirely then dragging them back onto the iPad (via iTunes) and while the tracks actually show that they are in fact on my iPad (via MacBook iTunes) while the iPad is connected to my MacBook, when I disconnect the iPad from MacBook/iTunes, I am unable to find the tracks on my iPad via the Music app. They don't show up in Music, Audiobooks. They don't even show up by author or genre. It's as if they aren't even on my iPad. Yet, when I reconnect the iPad back to the MacBook and view the contents via the iTunes on my MacBook, viola! There they are on my iPad.
I have successfully used this method to add MP3s to my iPad and occasionally, the tracks actually do show up in my Music app on the iPad. However, success is intermitent and uncertain...and rare.
I am NOT using iTunes Match so that option is turned OFF in my iPad Settings. I have tried turning it on to see if it would make a difference and I onl get a dialog box that tells me that I'm not subscribed to iTunes Match.
I have updated my iPad IOS to the latest. Have powered off completely then powered back on.
Still....nothing works.
Thanks so much for your input. I'm perplexed beyond belief by this random and frustrating issue.
C'mon gurus and expert users. What do you recommend?

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

HT1386 new ipad only syncs some songs

Some songs sync some dont. They all appear on iPad but only some songs will play. Help!!

When you synced the iPad did you make sure that the songs were selected ro sync.
With the iPad connected to your computer and with iTunes running, select your iPad under the devices heading on the left. Click on the Music Tab in iTunes on the right. Look to make sure that all of your albums, playlists, artist have been selected to sync. If not, select them and then click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes. Make sure that the Sync Music heading is checked as well.

HT1491 My iPad only shows one song from a whole album I purchased on iTunes from my Macbook. iTunes only shows the album as purchased but will not allow me to download to iPad.

I bought a full album on iTunes but the iTunes on my iPad mini will not allow me to download the full album. It shows that I have purchased the item but the purchase does not show up in my "Purchase" tab of iTunes on my iPad. I have updated my iPad completely. I have spent all weekend trying to fix this issue and I am so frustrated!!

Thanks for the reply! I am using the same username for my Macbook and iPad but had to update my Apple ID to a current email. After I did that I updated my iPad to the current system and then my iTunes stopped recognizing my purchases. It wasn't until JUST NOW that my original Apple ID would allow my password to delete itself from the iPad. So the issue seems solved now. User error.
Thank you!

Its says its used 1.81GB with only my 50 songs. Is there a way to change the format of my music so that it fits the 500 on to my IPOD?? Please Help!

Open iTunes prefs -Advanced - Importing.
It should be set to AAC (High Quality 128 kbps)

it might be worth checking your TV settings to see if it has an option for different settings based on whether using the tv speakers or headphones.
Normally you should be able to control the sound via the tv.
Have you tried it without the headphones?

When using Remote 2.0 on iPad, songs won't appear in alphabetical order

Anybody else getting this? Since upgrading to Remote 2.0 when clicking on the Songs tab I will get Artists in alphabetical order with their songs listed underneath. This is different than the Artists tab which just lists Artists alphabetically without their songs listed. I get this behavior on my iPhone 3G also. I can't get the Songs tab to just list Songs alphabetically. On my iPodtouch I have Remote 1.0 and it lists songs alphabetically like always.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Cheers

Hi,
I think we are talking about the same issue?:

I contacted the service several times for this issue, but unfortunately nothing happend.

Remote for ipad, cant find songs, but my iphone can, on the same network

hi all
have a very odd problem, and apple cant seem to help me, i´m using the app called remote, to control my itunes music, from both my iphones, ipod touch and the ipad, they all connect to the same itunes music library and i can control them just fine, and choose the music and which airplay unit i want to listen to.
so far so good
but on the ipad, if i do a search for BEE GEES, it shows the artist name BEE GEES, but when i press the artist name, to view the songs, it says no songs, and that i should buy some from itunes.
but when i do the exact same search from either the iphones or the ipod touch, the search then again shows BEE GEES and when i press the artist, it shows the songs that i have with that artist.
the strange thing is that if i search for a song name on the ipad, like NIGHT FEVER it see´s the artist as BEE GEES and i can play it, i just cant seem to do a search by ARTIST, then it returns with no songs????
i have made a small video of this, that you can see here, to further explain the issue
http://gallery.me.com/blackbox100/100023/Remote%20problem%20iPad
i have talked to apple numerous times, but they cant offer me any explanation
i have tried to delete the app on the ipad, and reinstall it, but that didnt help, i have tried to hook up to another itunes directory, and that didnt help either?
any help would be appreciated

I have exactly the same problem.
I made some short "tests" and it seems that if the "Album" field on the info of a song (ID3 tag) is empty, it doesn't appear on the search result of an artist (only on iPad's remote app).
So, if you fill the "album" field of a song (on the "get info" option) then it will be displayed on the list of songs of the particular artist that you have searched for, on the "remote app" on the iPad.
As a fast solution (mostly a stopgap) I would recommend that you will open iTunes on your computer and highlight all the songs that have empty the "album" field on the "get info" window (ID3 tag). Then right click and choose "get info". In the "Album" field, type a space or let's say the word "unknown" and click ok. Of course if you know the real name of the Album, you will fill that field with the right information.
After that, all the tracks should be displayed under every artist in the iPad's Remote app.
Apple should give a solution on that bug. It is strange that there is no such problem on iPhone's Remote application, but only on iPad's.

After updating my iPad mini to iOS 6.2 iTunes decided to wipe everything off and seem to take my account back into the past as all music, apps, videos was gone! Only a few songs where left that I have never seem before? How do I get my liabary back?

Today I got a iPad mini but after updating it my pc and iTunes decided to clear my whole iTunes library including manual downloads as well as purchased items (apps, music etc) it seems iTunes has gone back in time as there are only a few songs on my iTunes which are really old ones of mine. How do I get my current iTunes library back? Thanks.

Slone,
I finally decided to turn this annoyance into an opportunity. After a lot of experimenting I found that my iPad was just fine under 7.1 if I simply restored it as new. I have a lot of time on my hands and I had 1424 apps on my iPad! This is why every attempt to restore took so long.
I decided to restore as new, spend a day restoring the apps I really used. Doing so gave me a quick iPad with only bout a quarter of the storage used.
Granted it was a pain in the arse, but I wrote it off as in the old days when you had to do this with windows 95 just to keep a stable system.
I DO have some data in a few files of the now unused backup but a quick google search finds a couple Mac programs out there that will allow you go extract audio recordings, app data files etc. from the backup. I'll do that someday if I even miss the files I've probably forgotten that are there.
Anyway, there was nothing wrong with my hardware. I think there were just some troublesome setup items that 7.1 didn't like. Once set up as new, the ipad was fine.
Good luck!

After resetting ipad, unable to get to home screen. Only displays request to attach to Itunes, which I did. What next?

after resetting ipad and removing all programs, cannot get to home screen. Only get request to plug in to itumes,which I did, and it still goes back to that, and the apple logo.

The message means that you need to restore the iPad using iTunes. When you connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes, if you cannot see the iPad under the devices heading in the sidebar of iTunes, you wll have to restore using recovery mode. If you see the iPad under the devices heading, click on it and then click on the summary tab on the right and click on restore.
If that doesn't work, this is how to restore with recovery mode.
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.
If you are running iTunes 11 - and you can't see the sidebar - to to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top of the screen.

Hi guys, so we have 2 iPhones in my house, both on the same Apple ID so that my mum and I can share everything.

Loaded itunes on a new computer, and synced ipad. Now only those few songs I had on the ipad are in my library. But all of my ipods (3) have my full music library. How do i get all my songs moved back into my library from one of my ipods?

I installed itunes on a new laptop, with Windows 8, and synced my ipad. Now my music library has only those few songs I had synced to the ipad, or roughly a quarter of my original library. My ipods (all three) still have the full library, but everytime I try to sync them, I am asked if I want to delete all of the contents and replace with the (much smaller) itunes library. Of course I don't, but how do I "reverse sync" and replace all the music contents of my library with the contents from one of my ipods?
