Having trouble pairing new iOS Remote app with iTunes 11

I've had exactly the same problem...but unfortunately your resolution didn't work. All was working fine then I updated the Remote App followed shortly after by itunes. Home sharing is on on all the devices (Apple TV, Itouch and Iphone 5) but the Apple TV doesn't seem to recognise this. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm having the same problemo!

I'm having the same problem called apple, and they couldn't find it! I uninstalled iTunes and then installed it again..i reinstalled the remote app and still won't work I am very disappointed. 😟

Apple is now borrowing for MS, i.e. take a perfectly good interface, like iTunes, or Remote, and completly screw it. The iTunes 11 ***. Remote , which I had used successfully for 7 years, now also ***.

What changed, aside from software revisions in iTunes and remote... i'm a actually using all apple now. I went from a netgear router to AP extreme and Timecapsule. It should work better now, one would think, but its actually much worse.

The writing is on the wall, and that may be why apple's has taken such a nose dive.

This is useless.

Does anyone have a solution to the problem?

It's a little confusing the way they make it sound in the app. But here's what worked for me:

1) Delete the Remote app from your iOS device to get rid of the old settings. then reinstall it to start fresh

2) Pair iOS app with Apple TV: If you have an Apple TV, add it via the Remote settings. The iOS app will give you a 4-digit code that you'll have to enter in the Remote settings on the Apple TV itself

3) Pair iOS app with iTunes on your Mac: in the Remote settings in the iOS app, just turn on Home Sharing. (This is the confusing part since I was expecting to enter a code again)

***UPDATE***

Good News... My guess is that the issue was bandwidth on the local Wi-Fi, or possible signal strength, but more likely bandwidth.

I had tried reinstalling the app, resetting the APs, w/ home sharing, w/out home sharing, forgetting and reestablishing the remotes, etc....

I had been using a USB network adapter for connecting the iTunes machine to the Wi-Fi. The AP Extreme is on a different floor in the house. However, the adapter was wireless N and the signal strength was fine. Internet was fast but Remote was intermittent at best.

I plugged the PC into the time capsule directly via Ethernet, and now Remote connects to iTunes. Initially it takes a second. Then, it runs in the background on the phone and syncs quickly.

I thought upgrading from iPhone 4 to 5c would fix the issue with Remote, but it didn't.

Here is a screen capture from the APU on miPhone.

After all is said and done, the average user probably wouldn't have made this work. Prior to iTunes 11, we never had a problem.
