Way to remote control iTunes on my iPT ?

So I want to place my iTouch in the Dock and connect it to my Stereo. Is it possible to remotely control playback, like, Apple's remote but the other way round?

if you own a 2nd iOS device, check out Tango Remote Control.

  • Is there any way to remotely control iPhone and iPad?

    Hi All,
    I'am investigating a way to remotely control and solve basic problems of iPhone and iPad's. As an enterprise company we have over 2000 iPhones and iPads in our corporate and we want our help desk professionals be able to connect these type of mobiles and help staff over the phone.
    Is there a way to achieve this situation and could you please share with related articles about this sceneraio.
    Thanks Already

    No. There is no way to do so. Apps would not have access to the necessary APIs to do so as it would create a serious security risk.

  • ATV Remote controls iTunes on MacBook as well......

    Hi all,
    We just got ATV and when we are using the remote to navigate ATV stuff happens in iTunes as well - such as music starting and stopping, volume increasing/decreasing. How do I stop the ATV remote controlling iTunes on the macbook?
    Thanks

    On your Mac go to System Preferences, Security & Privacy, choose Disable Remote Control Infrared Reciever, at the bottom of the window.

  • A way of remotely controlling Mac Retina

    The more I use my expensive Mac Retina, the more I regret my purchase.
    The latest restriction is not having any option to remotely control my MAC. So standing up and doing a presentation on a state of the art machine, i am forced to walk to my laptop and press buttons.
    How can MAC fail so badly.
    So my constructive question is to anyone out there who knows of a work around? I know there are Apps in the store, but they don't really do the job very well and if I am out and about without wireless presenting I cant use them.
    Is there no bluetooth remote we can use?
    HELP!

    There are a number of remote desktop applications for iPhone or iPad if you have one of those. Go to the iTunes store > App store > search for Remote Desktop.
    Best of luck.

  • Apple Remote controls iTunes, not Front Row

    I've searched around for an answer to this and have had no luck. My Apple Remote is controlling iTunes - the play/pause button is playing and pausing, the up and down buttons are controlling iTunes volume, the left and right buttons are skipping tracks as expected, and the Menu button is pulling up the iTunes window. But I want the remote to open and control Front Row. Holding down the Menu button won't open Front Row, no matter how long I hold it. I can open Front Row normally through the Applications folder, but even when it's open, the Apple Remote doesn't control it - it still controls iTunes! Pressing play won't do anything in Front Row, but it will start a song playing in iTunes. The remote and my IR receiver are obviously working. How can I fix this?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    If you use the Accounts System Preferences to make a brand new user, log out and log in as the new user, does the Apple remote work as expected with Front Row? If so, then you have some kind of preference or setting that's blocking the remote in Front Row. If it doesn't work for the new user, then you have a system-wide or hardware problem.

  • Is there a way to remotely control my iPad 2 using my iPhone?

    I use my iPad in my car to entertain my child while driving and I would like to know if there is a way to change the movie he is watching (in the backseat) using my iPhone while I am sitting in the front seat?  I think it would be great if I don't have to physically remove the iPad from its headrest mount to change to a different show.

    A google search produced nothing in the App Store which will let your iPhone remotely control an iPad's video play.

  • Use e71 to remote control itunes

    Hi,
    I have a mac mini (snow leopard) with itunes. I would like to remote control the itunes running on my mac mini using my e71, like the iRemote for the iphone.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Lars Vonk

    I have used Salling Clicker for years (on PC first and now on MAC), primarily to rate songs remotely from the phone and secondarily to add songs to playlists. It does much more and works both over Bluetooth and WIFI and is ideal to discretely and efficiently DJ your event.
    Symbian version is well integrated (you have cover art and also can use the phones' volume keys to increase/decrease your computer's volume) and I highly recommend it (my first pay application... although the free version might be enough for some people).

  • Need a way to remotely control a camcorder for live streaming

    Hi all,
    I purchased a Canon Vixia HF R40 for streaming. It works well enough when I use the camera's HDMI out to a Blackmagic Intensity Pro card and stream via Livestream.com.
    The problem I'm having is that the camera is permanently mounted about 8' up a wall, and I sometimes need zoom it in or out for different programming. Reading the box, I expected to be able to us WiFi to remotely control the zoom, but turning on WiFi turns off the HDMI output.
    Questions:
    1) Will the Canon CameraWindow software on my computer allow me to control the zoom the R40 via USB, or is it just for transferring previous recordings?
    2) Is there a different camcorder that will allow me to stream the HDMI output and zoom?

    1. No, as far as I know you cannot control the camera via USB.
    2. I believe that the last camcorders in Canon's M series (M400, M40, M41) came with an IR remote which could control the zoom.

  • Any way to remote control another iPhone/iTouch/iPod with my iPhone 4?

    Since I upgraded my iPhone 3G to an iPhone 4, I'm thinking of just using my old iPhone 3G as a Mp3 player connected to my stereo.
    However, I don't want to walk over to my iPhone 3G and fiddle with it if I want to start/stop/change the music.
    What I really want is to be able to remotely control my iPhone 3G with my iPhone 4 in my comfortable chair without getting up !!!
    Is that possible?

  • What is the best way to remotely stream iTunes content?

    Hello,
    I have a rather large iTunes library (approximately 1TB) made up of Videos (iTunes and non-iTunes) and audio (iTunes and Audible) currently sitting on a 3TB external drive. I was wondering what is the best ie. most effieicent/affordable method to access my iTunes library, on my laptop, when I'm not at home?
    I've tried iTunes Match in the past yet, unfortunately, iTunes Match has always succeeded in destroying parts of my iTunes library forcing me to restore from backup (which takes several hours). The only other options that I've been able to find are either 1) Buying a 1TB+ portable external drive and puting my iTunes library on it (costs around $150 for 2TB) or 2) Buying a Slingbox 350 ($180, not sure if a service subscription is required) and watch my iTunes Library through my 3rd Gen Apple TV.
    Given that iTunes Match was so problematic for me in the past, are these my only other options? Does anyone know of a better solution as to how I can do this?
    Any assistance with this will be greatly appreciated.

    I have a large iTunes library, 600Gb of Music and 20TB odd of video.
    I tried a few different things while I was on the road.
    The VPN back was Ok, but I was looking for ways to run video to hotel rooms and 3G / Hotel WIFI wasn't doing it for me.
    For Video I ended up using AirVideo from my iMac to my iPad, and that was Ok, Pex can do the same now, so will try that as well.
    For music I ended up creating a new login on my iMac and loaded the music that meant the most or was new into iTunes up to 25k songs and shared it using Music Match, that work well for me.
    My guess is that Plex will let you share and remote access all your audio video, I haven't tried it yet though.

  • Can my Windows MCE Remote control iTunes?

    I have an iPhone so I want to use iTunes as much as possible to make myself as familar witht he program that I can.
    I would really love if my Windows MCE Remote can control it.
    I used the up and down arrows and it seemed to scroll through the song list, but I couldnt pause the song from the remote.
    So can I get it to fully work with iTunes?
    Can I even use the MCE on the desktop like a mouse?

    No idea, since I don't have Windows MCE Remote. Have you tried over in their forums?

  • Apple TV remote controls iTunes

    Using the Apple TV remote to select something.  When I hit play it not only plays the movie on Apple TV it also plays a random song in iTunes on my computer.  This is also happening at a friends house.  Any setting changes that can be done?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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)

  • Best way to remotely control my parents macbook pro?

    That depends on your skill level. Easiest way is Screen Sharing in iChat. Most efficient is SSH.

  • Remote control iPhone 4 via Windows Laptop/Desktop

    Hello,
    I was wodnering if there was a way to remotely control my iPhone via my Windows Laptop? My speaker system is across the room which is hooked up to my iPhone, so everytime I want to change to a specific song or skip a song, I would have to get up and manually change it.
    I have seen apps in the store that allow you use the iPhone control another apple device, or use your iPhone as the remote. However in this case, I want to use my computer as the remote.
    Anyone have any ideas or tips? Thanks in advance.

    Gave it a look, tried all the troubleshooting. My IP addresses are the same, so now I really don't understand. I'm just super confused. If it hadn't ever worked, I would just write it off as my university network being too strict... but now that it has worked once and really... nothing changed... I am just very confused.
