Apple Remote (silver) not working with MacBook Pro (mid-2012) anymore I have used an Apple Remote with my mid-2012 MacBook Pro for a long time, usually to run PowerPoint shows without needing to stay by the keyboard. Last year, however, the Apple Remote stopped working. I am still able to pair and unpair the remote and the laptop -- but aside from the ability to "pair," it cannot do anything else (like forward a slide). Assuming the problem was with the remote, I bought a new one. But the new remote has the same problem: you can pair it with the machine -- so I assume the infrared is working -- but nothing beyond that. This problem did not go away when I recently changed from OS10.14 to OS 10.15.7.

Thank you. I was able to speak to an Apple technician and learned that the Logitech Spotlight Presentation Remote would work. I was able to purchase it today and I am very happy!!!
