Try changing your firewall setting ( Sys prefs -> Security) to allow all incoming traffic. If that works then modify your firewall by adding iTunes to specific apps under 'Set access for specific......'

This is on a Mac, windows users it seems a similar approach can work, but I don't know the specifics for adding iTunes to your firewall listing.

Good luck

I have a first-generation iPhone, Version 2.0 software installed. Remote installed also.

When I invoke Remote on the iPhone, it gives me a 4-digit number for use when starting iTunes on my Mac. However, when I start iTunes, I don't see anywhere to insert that code. There is no iPhone item under Devices until I place the iPhone in its cradle. Even when in its cradle, there seems no choice under the iPhone drop-down to insert a code number.

My iPhone is connected via wifi, my Mac is wired to the same Internet gateway.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
