Right button on apple silver tv remote not working….
I don’t know which model apple tv you have, if it’s an older one and it doesn’t have Siri then you can’t ask Siri to open settings and if it’s not connected to HomeKit you can’t ask Siri on another device either. The one you ordered should work better.
you might try just restarting your apple tv. If you can’t get into settings, you can unplug it for a minute to restart. This can sometimes fix a remote not working.

Hi again..the new aftermarket remote arrived today ( wasn’t aware it was in the postbox ) ….brilliant ! all working perfectly. I can track right to settings and do a software update which allowed my iPhone to be used as a remote as well ..I can access all functions now …so lesson is things do wear out over time ! Thanks again for your help
You’re very welcome and I’m glad you can now operate your Apple TV.
Happy Holidays :)
Many thanks for your reply..didn’t think anyone would get back to me! …I have one of the first silver aluminium models , it’s paired ok but its frustrating as I think I need to do a reset as the message on the tv says on the Apple TV but I cannot move across to the right with the remote to click on “settings” …I’ve ordered an after market remote and hope that may work. Also I can’t set up the iPhone/ iPad remote function …it’s used to work ! Any advice again would be gratefully accepted …thanks
Thanks again Vancouver22 . Yes my Apple TV is one of the first ..I’ve tried the turn off and on again but I no good. I think it may be a worn out remote ..the right connection has seen a lot of usage over the years and when I think of it its the action that is used most …as you said hopefully the new remote will get me across to the settings . It arrives in a week or two and I’ll let you know how I go….many thanks again for helping ..much appreciated.
