New AppleTV remote3 not pairing I have an Apple TV HD I purchased the new latest remote, it won’t pair despite the instructions, it says to move closer to the Apple TV but nothing happens, tried turning the TV unit off and on. Would the original black remote be interfering with the pairing? Any clues. thanks, john
