ipod touch with sky remote record

[stevetigersix]

hi guys ive attempted to set sky remote record up with using my homes ipod touch and when i go through the sky setup procedure on the sky box it asks me for the mobile tel number for the device to use remote record function, however its the ipod touch so it has no tel number. sky customer services cant answer how to do it but their web site says it is possible anyone have a solution?

Ipod touch? Just use wireless internet to access sky.com and log in there to do it. You can also pay for an app to do it.

There ya go, download the app, log in with sky.com details, set up remote record via tv listings.

What u have to remember is that when u "log on" within the app on ur iPod u are just logging on to skys web site to remote record via wifi on ur iPod

You don't need a telephone number to do this, the telephone number is if u want to text ur box a remote record.

So when u set ur box up, just enter ur mobile phone number, just so ur box will set up.

But u must have ur box pluged into a phone line to receive the remote record, also if u have b band it must be filtered.

Hope it helps

By the way the application is called "Sky+" on the Itunes store applications list.
