iTunes - iPod/iPhone "Remote"
Hi all
New to the forums (so please go easy on me!)
Have tried a search, but couldn't see an appropriate answer.
Hoping someone might be able to shine some light on a problem I have with iTunes on Windows 7 (RC).
I have 2 iPhones at home (I'm a part-time Apple whore)...and in WinXP (with ZoneAlarm as a software firewall) I was able to get them to work as remotes for iTunes without a problem.
In Win7 I can't get the iPhones to appear in the device list to enter the codes for authentication to use as remotes.
I've tried:
1) Switching the Win7 firewall off completely
2) Switching off the Win7 firewall and installing Comodo firewall (to try and track incoming network requests, since it wasn't overly obvious where this was in the Win7 firewall)
3) Uninstalling and re-installing iTunes (with relevant registry clean and preferences wipe in between)
4) Telling iTunes to "Forget all remotes"
I've proved it isn't the iPhones themselves by opening iTunes on my Macbook and them appearing instantly (when I open the "Remote" app on the iPhone).
Has anyone had a similar problem or any info on where the issue might be?
Thanks in advance!
Miles
