    Can I replace the battery in a Siri Remote 1st gen?

    Is it possible to replace the battery without breaking anything? Or is it glued (?) shut forever? If so, how about recycling the battery? I've had this remote for almost six years, so no wonder the original battery is worse for wear by now. Still, the remote works fine.

    Siri Remote does not work well since TvOS 16 update

    Hey all. After the TvOS 16 update, my Siri Remote works strangely. Every click down or right acts like I have a double click. It is impossible to click apps or write in the youtube app because it moves too fast down or right. I have tried to use another Siri remote and reset my remote. Nothing...

    AppleTV 4k (2nd) - Randomly Goes into Stand By Mode

    My loved Apple TV has seen better days. It recently (over the past few days) has decided to randomly and without notice, go into stand-by mode. Occasionally it will happen after seeing this pop-up: "Press and hold the power button to shut down." Other times... it gets me in the middle of a...

    1st Gen Siri Remote on the 2nd Gen ATV4k?

    One of my ATV4K1s has been having issues lately, leading to having to restart it a few times a day. It might be due to the latest tvOS software, or maybe HW issues. Either way, I was thinking about purchasing a new ATV4k2, and moving the problematic ATV4K to a less used TV. But, I was curious...

    Siri Remotes stuck sending IR volume down commands

    Two of the (latest-gel) Siri remotes in my house have suddenly started sending continuous IR volume down commands to my receivers and TVs. ATV says the remote firmware is version 0x0061. Never had this before. Work around is to point the remotes away from the TV so TV can't see IR commands...

    New Remote - touch capability

    Hello, i ask myself how the touch feature is integrated in the new remote. Will we be able to get the same parallax effect on app icons by moving the thumb slightly over the touch surface of the new "touch ring"? Will we be able to navigate through the start screen the same way we do with the...

    ATV4K Siri Remote Sudden Range / Performance Issue

    Siri Remote failed to wake the ATV4K this morning so gave it a charge, just in case. Woke the ATV with an iPhone and noted the "remote - lost connection" pop-up. Brought the remote very close and still no reaction to inputs so tried a re-pair. No issues with the re-pairing, battery showing at...

    Is there a good alternative to the Siri Remote, eg can you use an old Apple Remote?

    The swipe to navigate is awful. It's been a few years now and I still can't reliably scroll one item left or right. The old remote was perfect (except for a weak battery cover clip and tendency to get lost) - could I pick up an old Apple Remote and use that?

    Siri Remote no longer working properly

    I did find a similar thread on here, but none of the solutions worked and I didn't want to raise it from the dead. My Siri remote no longer works. I'm not certain what version of Apple TV I have, but it's at least 2 years old now. The buttons still work just fine, but using even a simple...

    Siri Remote Battery Life Questions

    Hi, I got my Apple TV 4K on the 28th of September. I charged the Siri remote to 100%. Today, a month later, it is at 20%. Is this normal? I thought these should last for months? Can others share their experiences on the Siri remote battery life Thanks

    Has the Siri Remote Doomed the Apple TV?

    Probably not, but with so many people saying that they "hate" the new remote you have to wonder what Apple will do to correct these misgivings with the next revision of the product. I'm going to come right out and say it, the touch surface on the Siri remote has got to go. What I'm concerned...

    Siri Remote poor response to trackpad clicks

    My Siri remote has started to exhibit poor responsiveness to when the trackpad is clicked. Swiping on it still moves the focus around the app icons and up and down menus, but clicking in the center to select stuff often takes one, two or sometimes more tries to get it to register. Same goes for...

    Apple TV 4 Siri remote complaint

    Hello, my siri remote is broken. When you click on the ,,touch screen", you hear that click and you feel it too, but on my remote, on the right side, it doesn't do it. I think that it is stuck. I would like to go to the Apple Store just with remote and bill, or should I bring the apple tv too?
