Apple remote no longer works on my Mac.

Works on apple remote and then all of a sudden he stops working.  If I restart the computer, it comes back but then stops on its own.  With the help of El Capitan and iTunes is up to date.

Thank you

The basic test, which I think that you would have already done, would be to check & replace the battery.

• How to replace the Apple Remote - Support Apple battery

There may be some settings regarding the remote (I have no experience with assistance) in OS X.

old article:

• Twinning of the Apple Remote with your computer - Apple Support

• Pair or cancel the twinning of the Apple Remote with Apple TV (3rd generation or earlier)-Apple Support

A search can bring up to similar or somewhat the same kind of topic, if your situation

can be unique and have a cause other than others you can find online via a search.

While the battery would be a first thing to check, the remote control itself may be faulty. Or you

maybe see if a reset of the MSC could help somewhere on the computer, it works with.

• Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

An another reset which may or may not have something to do with the receiver in the Mac, is the following:

• How to reset the NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

If your computer is still covered by an AppleCare agreement, you have the unit

tested & inspected to see if there is nothing wrong; and have it repaired. An Apple Store with

Genius bar should be able to (if you contact them before for suitable appointment time)

check and test the computer and the remote to see what is the problem. Genius:

While the least expensive, if defective, it's the battery; then the remote control. To troubleshoot all try.

Good luck & happy computing!

    Adobe Photoshop elements 12-editor no longer works on my Mac Pro, Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 running. I don't know why, because Photoshop Elements has always worked properly before today.

    Quite disappointing. I installed the application in may 2014, download it from the App Store and now I would like to reinstall Photoshop Elements.

    Can you help me, please?

    Restart the Editor while pressing command-shift-option. Keep the key down until you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.

  • Apple tv fast slidepad forward remote no longer works

    I have always accelerated video and rewinding, on my last generation Apple tv "dragging" on the remote slidepad.  Netflix, buy movies on itunes etc.  This allowed me to skip large sections in a short period of time.  All of a sudden it no longer works.  It still allows fast forward me and rewind by "clicking" the left or right of the slidepad, but it's incredibly slow.  My slidepad still works to navigate through the menus, so there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.

  • Remote control no longer works with HP TouchSmart 600 after 8.1 Upgrade Windows

    I've upgraded to 8.1 Windows only to find that my remote no longer works.  More than the volume controls integrated on the side of the TouchSmart computer work after the upgrade.

    Volume based keyboard controls have continued to function after the upgrade.

    All solutions?

    However I had no luck with the convenience store went into Device Manager and found it lacking the driver for the ARVA door.  I was able to download from

    The remote works now, but still no luck with the volume control on the side of the computer.

  • Apple TV 4 suddenly no longer works

    Since last week my Apple TV 4 suddenly no longer works, bought 27 December 2015.

    I already have things:

    1 charge of the remote control

    2 disconnected and reconnected the power cable, hdmi and ethernet (my wifi is unstable when I'm apple tv). After re - all of these cables, the device flashes 7 times and then shortly made a break.

    3. use a different power cable.

    4 searched on the internet on the significance of the 7 blinks, found nothing. Which for me is odd, blink-sequences usually have a meaning.

    5 purchased and attached a USB C cable to my iMac will hopefully restore via iTunes. But he does not appear in iTunes (updated).

    6a tried to put it into DFU mode by connecting the apple tv with the usb cable and pushed the home (tv) button and the button play-pauzé for 6 seconds. I was informed that the unit should Flash and then iTunes should recognize it.

    7 has tried to pair the remote control again, in case there's an accident and repeated all steps.

    8 has obtained information that the cable I use is supposed to be good.

    These steps did nothing, the only thing that happened between the last time that I used it and when I realized it has no function, is that they have replaced my for a "smart" electricity meter But I can't be sure that this caused all this 100%. The appliance was not turned on for the replacement.

    I see no option to manually search for the device connected to my iMac, and no indication that iTunes gets even a hint of a connection.

    Thanks in advance.

    It has a 12 month warranty - contact Apple or take it to an Apple store and ask for a replacement/repair.

    You talk as if you have tried all reasonable measures including the verification of the cable USB is correctly (no ony supply).

    I've updated the Mac driver for the 8600 and direct wireless printing is no longer works. The HP utility is v5.9.1, Mac OS x 10.7. I did the software update and a new driver HP was part of the package. HP ePrint still works, and print tests are okay for General network settings are intact.

    Adrian

    Hello, Adrian.

    We are all end-users, as you have so no special knowledge of plans for the future of Apple outside what they have announced so far.

    Usually, once a new package of Mac OS is finalized, there are notes at the bottom of the web page describing the new features shows any material (camera model) limits for each feature. If this is not present on the page of the Sierra (was not the last time I looked for it), Apple has not finalized the OS version and the terms of use here, we cannot discuss unreleased products beyond what Apple - not a third rumore site - has announced.

    So we must all wait until the release date is closer.

  • TextInputProperties.onSubmitted no longer works on Mac OS 10.2

    I came across a strange problem like code in one of my apps stopped working on Mac OS 10.2 but works without problem on OS 10.0 and 10.1. I'm just trying to catch when the user presses ENTER in a TextField:

        TextField {
            id: myTextField
            horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment.Left
            verticalAlignment: VerticalAlignment.Center
            input {
                submitKey: SubmitKey.Default
    
                onSubmitted: {
                    //code here....
                }
    
                flags: TextInputFlag.AutoCapitalization
            }
        }
    

    For some strange reason, this piece of code no longer works on Mac OS 10.2 (Z30) and events onSubmitted never gets fired. Anyone has an idea why this might happen?

    Interestingly, changing to

    submitKey: SubmitKey.DONE
    

    did onSumbitted get fired again. Ideally, I want to keep the default value of virtual keyboard look if possible and do not overwrite it with "DONE" just to make things work.

    Hi bbdevguy,

    From 10.2, onSubmitted signal fires events only when the button send text is set to 'Submit' or obviously "done." Prior to version 10.2, the signal "onSubmitted events" would have also fired on an ordinary 'Enter' (default), but it's supposed to do more fires on default, i.e. is not a bug.

    To this, to the property line of submitKey to SubmitKey.Submit of luck

    submitKey: SubmitKey.Submit
