Setup for most (not all) : hold directional left button and menu button at the same time for 7 secs. How to reset your remote manually
1. Start by unlinking your Remote from your Apple TV by holding down the "Menu" and "Left" buttons. Hold them until you see an image on your screen of a remote with an icon above it that looks like two non-touching ovals at an angle. This should take about six seconds.
Press the "Menu" and "Left" buttons.
2. Once that image appears, hold down the "Menu" and "Right" buttons on your Remote until you see a logo on your TV screen of a remote with the two ovals now overlapping to look like chain links. This means the link has been re-established with your Remote.
