ifidude Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Hey all, Love my iFi, great product, but the remote stopped working a couple weeks ago and new battery didn't fix the problem. Anyone else having issues or solutions?? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 did you happen to take the remote beyond the range? For some odd reason when taken beyond the range the remote losses the frequency. Just press and hold play for like 10 seconds. If you switched the battery make sure that you placed it in the right + and - as if placed backwards the remote drains the battery quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDIFI Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I just recieved my IFI today and my remote will not work either. Wondering what you ended up doing to resolve your issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 try resyncing the remotes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDIFI Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I tried resyncing the remote but I am unable to get in to the sync mode. I have tried two different procedures, one that was sent in the box with the unit and the other one I downloaded from the klipsch website. I am now wondering if this is a dock issue or a remote issue?Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 use the one on the website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin Drum Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 My just out of the box remote does not work either. The resynch process in the manual is for addt'l remotes. Holding the play button for 15 secs (ifi in standby, no pod in dock) did not work either. Customer service said to return the entire unit to store--I bit of a drag! :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 The battery probably just died... Note they forgot to add that plastic film to prevent the battery from being drained while it sits on the shelf, goto raidoshack and make sure the battery is in the right position or it will drain fast.

Tin Drum Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Bingo, Jay! You saved me a trip to Compusa. Still, not what I'd expect from Klipsch--a little shoddy and two bad steers from two different techs, neither who even suggested this option. Now, how to collect my $5 from Klipsch? :-) Thanks!

Jay481985 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Glad it worked. I remember Amy saying that that was a problem and they will send replacement batteries but I thought it would take a few days and that it would give you an answer alot sooner.

Crunchyriff Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 FWIW, I just got the IFI sys at Costco tonight for a slammin deal!! That being said, the remote is dead. Hoping it's just a dead battery. I already tried both the supplied manual and the updated online instructions. No cigar. I emailed support tonight about needing the 60GB Video adapter , and todl them my battery appears to be dead. One more thing- questioin- is your horizontal light bar on the dock yellow or green? the pix I've seen online show a green one, but mine is orange/yellowish. Not green. Did they update that detail? Thanks. BTW- I'm a pro musician. These speakers really shine- even fresh out of the box. I can't wait for them to break in a bit. I'm also using this with my 20" iMac. Just fabulous.

Jay481985 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 its amber when in standby mode like when you first turn them on and green when you press the hold/stop button or put an ipod in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crunchyriff Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 You mean the front, little round light- not the horizontal bar light on top the dock, correct? I'm talking about the top horzontal light that moves to the right as you increase the volume. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 the volume light is amber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l84toff Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Crunchyriff, I presume you have the Klipsch RoomGroove hooked up to the imac wirelessly? If so, is there any lag between the video and the audio streaming (as in if I were watching a dvd on the imac, would the sound match up with the video)? Am thinking about getting the RoomGroove vs getting the Bose SoundDock. I love the lack of wires but I will take wires over sound and video not matching up. Thanks, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenjwilliams830728 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I have rsb-11 and have issues with remote. Changed batteries a few times, factory reset the sound bar and remote still doesn’t work. Ideas? Is there an apple app to control this model?

kat3k Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I'm sure I'm the only one reading this topic at this late date, but just in case..... I still use and love my IFI's, but have had the same problems talked about here. The most recent was the dock not responding to the remote. Since I have two, trouble-shooting is a little easier. Short story is when you hold down the play/pause button on the remote, it suspends the dock, and you have to hold down that button again for at least 3 seconds for it to respond again. I read about that somewhere, tried it, and it worked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
