To pair an Apple TV remote with your Apple TV, follow these steps:
1. Turn on your Apple TV and make sure it's connected to your TV and Wi-Fi network.
2. Ensure that your Apple TV remote has working batteries.
3. If you have an older Apple TV remote (silver or white), it should automatically pair with your Apple TV. However, if you're using a newer Siri Remote (black), you may need to pair it manually.
4. If you have a Siri Remote (black) and need to pair it manually, place the remote close to your Apple TV and press and hold the Home button for a few seconds.
5. If your Siri Remote has a white light at the top, it means it's in pairing mode. Continue holding the Home button until you see a message on your TV screen indicating that the remote has been paired.
6. Once the pairing process is complete, you should be able to use your Apple TV remote to navigate the Apple TV interface.
If you're having trouble pairing your remote or if it's still not working after pairing, you may need to troubleshoot the issue further by checking the batteries, restarting your Apple TV, or resetting your remote. You can find more detailed instructions and troubleshooting tips on the Apple Support website or in the Apple TV user manual.
