Q: My Apple TV doesn't show up in Remote App?

When I launch my remote app to run my Apple TV , the Apple TV doesn't show up in the app, only iTunes music.

Can't figure out how to fix this. I lost the remote device so the remote app in my iphone and iPad is the only way to access the Apple TV..help....

    Home sharing would need to be enabled on Apple TV and both would need to be on the same network. If anything has changed the original remote would be needed to reconfigure.

     

    You may want to try rebooting Apple TV by unplugging, wait 10 seconds before reconnecting.

    If iTunes sharing is turned on, turn it off, then back on.  This worked on my phone with the Remote app.
