My aluminum model remote won't connect to my apple tv receiver. I tried holding the menu and right button for 6 seconds like it tells you in the support settings but nothing is happening. What do i do now?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.
I had this same issue. The instructions that come with the aluminum remote are wrong. You need to hold the left button, not the right along with the menu button in order to get it to pair.
Cheers
Nope, the left button is unpair.
Sorry, Winston but it was the left button that worked on two that I paired over this weekend. I realize that the instructions that come with the remote says it is the right, but for both the new remotes I bought the right button did not work. When I used I used the left button it did.
i can't explain it, just passing along what worked.
