Apple TV 3rd generation

My Apple TV remote is not working and I have changed the battery twice already, it kind of just stopped working or I had to get very close to the tv for it to work but now does not work at all. Please help.

A Few Thoughts:


  • Power Off your Apple TV:

First, unplug your Apple TV for 30 Seconds. Power it back on. See if that fixes this.


  • Elsewise, Refer to these Apple Support Links:
