Using the  apple remote  with  ipod  mini

is it possible to use the apple remote with ipod mini dock
advent 1318   Windows XP   n/a

Would the apple remote and universal dock allow remote adjustment of the volume level when using and iPod mini? I know the nano and 5g support this feature but am unsure for the mini as my old 3g ipod only gave 'line out' via the dock.

  • Can I use the Apple Remote with 5th Gen purchased early 2007? IR available?

    Have 5th Gen ipod and doesn't react to Apple remote control. Does ipod have infrared capability? Remote states will work on ipods made after 2005. Ipod is in docking station.

    Which docking station are you using?
    To be used with the Apple Remote, it needs to be one of the two Universal Dock models with a black IR port in the front.
    Cheers!

  • Using the Apple Remote with Windows Media Center

    Hello guys
    First of all, I am Swiss, so excuse me for my bad English (grammar and stuff...)
    So, my problem: I bought the Apple Remote and I think it is very awsome! But since Apple has removed Front Row in Lion, I don't really can use it anymore. So I'd tried to use it with Windows 7 Media Center. But it doesn't work correctly. Does anyone know, how to fix that?
    Thank you

    I had a Green Button remote provided with HP PC XP, Vista for Windows Media Center prior to getting Mac Pro.
    Now in Lion, I have Hauppauge WinTV HVR-980 USB adapter (less than $100) including a remote that works in Lion for the Hauppauge TV app.
    In Windows, the same remote works with all "Media Center" processes Music, Pictures, TV... instead of mouse/keyboard. If your TV service requires set top box, then you have to use its remote to change channels.
    If ISP's internet Co-Ax also carries TV signal, you can get Cable Splitter (smple picture):

    and feed 1 co-ax to USB TV adapter, the other to your Modem/Router.
    The Hauppage USB was a good choice because it serves Mac & Windows.
    Also, In Windows, if you have an XBox, it can be used as "Extender" for your A/V output.

    Although this may not answer your question, it describes other options.

  • Using apple remote with ipod touch 4th gen

    i've seen on the apple website that you can use the apple remote with the ipod 4th generation. how does it work? because isn't the apple remote an ir device? or does it work off bluetooth? some advice on how to use the apple remote would be great. thanks.

    You also need Apple's Universal Dock. The description of the remote says:
    Note: The Apple Remote requires the iPod Universal Dock and any iPod with a dock connector or any iPhone.,Compatible with Apple products introduced in 2005 or later that have a built-in infrared (IR) receiver.

  • I can't connect to my iTunes library on my Macbook Pro using the Apple Remote app on my iPhone 4S. Why?

    Hi all,
    I've been looking through the forums for help with this problem. There are a couple of threads with similar problems, but no solved threads and the discussion doesn't seem to go anywhere... As far as I can tell, it's been causing a lot of annoyance for many users, including myself, but it looks like the community's in the dark about why it's happening!
    I'm trying to connect to my iTunes library using the Apple Remote app on my new iPhone 4S. As you may know, there are two ways to do this:
    Connect via Home Sharing by setting up Home Sharing on both iTunes and the iPhone, or
    Connecting directly to iTunes using a four digit passcode.
    I've tried both methods, and neither work!
    Here's what happens for each method:
    From the Remote app start screen, I tap the "Turn on Home Sharing" button. I enter my Apple ID details (which are definitely correct), and get a confirmation message on my phone saying "Home Sharing is on using [my email address]. To control iTunes: Choose Turn On Home Sharing from the Advanced menu in iTunes on your computer." I then go to iTunes, turn on Home Sharing, enter my Apple ID again and get a confirmation message saying "Home Sharing is now on", etc. However, there's no connection formed between my iPhone and my Macbook Pro - the Remote app just shows a message saying "Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer or on Apple TV using the account [my email address].
    From the Remote app start screen, I tap "Add an iTunes Library", and the four digit passcode is shown on my phone. I select the new "Quintin's iPhone" item that appears in the iTunes sidebar under "Devices", and enter the passcode on the screen that appears. Once I've entered it, I get a confirmation message saying "Your Remote is now able to control iTunes" with an "Okay" button. Clicking the "Okay" button makes the screen and the sidebar item disappear completely. On my phone, a message that says "Looking for ..." is shown on the screen with a spinning loading wheel, but nothing happens. After a minute or two, it stops and simply says "Could not find".
    After trying both methods, I went through all of the troubleshooting steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1741 . Absolutely no effect.
    I should mention that I was experiencing similar problems on my old iPhone 3Gs with an older version of iTunes. I thought it might have been some kind of hardware fault and expected it to clear up once I got the new phone, but the problem is still there. It's a new phone, a new computer, a newer version an iTunes... even a different network I'm trying to connect to it on. Bizarre!
    I've even tried using the Mobile Air Mouse remote application instead. However again, the Mobile Air Mouse app on my phone can't pick up the Mobile Air Mouse server on my Mac.
    I'm kind of at the end of my rope here. Anyone?

    I have the exact same problem trying to use the Remote app on both my iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 with either my Mac or ATV2.  My Remote app used to work on my phone - I can't recall if I ever actually used it with my iPad, but when I tried today, I got all the same results as you did (on both iPad, and then iPhone).  I  was using my ATV2 to play music from iTunes on my Mac and wanted to use the Remote app, but it would not connect to either device no matter what I did. 

  • Can you use the apple remote to control tv programs?

    Can you use the apple remote control like a tv remote to control tv programs & DVDs on the computer? Everything I've found about the Apple Remote talks about using it for products other than desktops. I watch some regular tv shows on my iMac & would like to be able to use a remote control.
    I have a built-in infrared receiver.
    Thanks!

    You should be able to control DVD playback now with the Apple Remote. You may be able to get a bit of functionality with web sites by using Remote Buddy by using it as a virtual mouse and keyboard:
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/21872/remote-buddy
    but you're not going to get anything close to the sort of functionality you'd get with a remote and a TV.

  • Will OS X allow me to use the Apple TV with my Macbook Pro 13" mid 2010?

    Will OS X allow me to use the Apple TV with my Macbook Pro 13" mid 2010?

    Yep, I updated. I've had no problems and I like the new OS. However, since my MacBook Pro is pre-2011, I had to downlod Air Parrot to be able to use the MacBook in conjunction with Apple TV. Everything now works well.

  • Can I use the apple remote on the iPad mini or iPhone 5s?

    Why won't the apple remote I just bought wont' work on my iPhone 5s or iPad mini? It works on my Mac great, but that's not where I need it! What a waste, I spent all day trying to set this up. Nothing in the manual saying it does NOT WORK ON other components. It clearly states it DOES WORK ON OTHER!  grrrr!! I even had to reinstall my backup as I accidentenly pressed "forget this device" and could not get bluetooth to work again. Not user friendly at all. Will return for refund if I cannot get it to work!

    No ios device ever apart from appletv have had an ir sensor some docks have ir but never the devices

  • Apple Remote with iPod Touch or Nano

    My father has an iPod Nano right now and is going to be getting an iPod Touch in the next few months.
    So, one of the items we got him was the Apple Remote (aluminum with black buttons)
    I CAN NOT get it to work.
    Does it work with the Nano??? If not, does it work (should it work) with an iPod touch?
    I wanted him to use it with his in-wall ipod dock (connected to in wall speakers.
    Please help! I feel like I gave a crappy fathers day gift :P

  • Can't use my apple displays with Mac mini

    Hey everyone,
    I've got a pretty strange problem, and I'm hoping you guys know of a solution to this.
    Thing is, I can't use any apple displays with my Mac mini box. Whenever I try to do so I can see that the monitors are turned on, but the screen is completely black (doesn't flicker or anything like that). I know for a fact that both of the apple monitors I tried work.
    However, monitors from other manufacturers work just fine! This has got me baffled, what is it about apple monitors that's got my Mac so confused ?

    It's possible the analog VGA is working on your mini whereas the DVI digital output is broken. They are two completely different interfaces that just happen to share a common connector on the mini.
    Can you possibly get your hands on another, non-Apple monitor that has a DVI input? I would say if all three are not working (two Apple monitors and a third-party one), then definitely something is up with the mini's DVI output.

  • Apple Remote with Mac Mini G4

    Hi
    I have a mac mini g4 which obviously does'nt have the infra-red reciever on the front like the intel models do. So is there any hardware that I could buy from the apple store which would allow the apple remote to work with my g4 mac mini.
    Thanks.....

    This link provides a method for doing so.

  • How to use menu button on apple remote with mac mini

    I purchased a late 2012 mac mini and the silver remote. The remote automatically opens iTunes, plays and pauses songs, adjust the volume, and skips forwards or backwards just fine. I had no trouble linking it the the Mac Mini either. So we have established it is working and comunicating fine with my Mac. My question is: what the heck is the "menu" botton for and can I use it with my Mac Mini? I'm using OS X 10.9.2.

    The Menu button does nothing
