Last night when I went out I  left my Wii on.  It was probably for about 4 hours.  When I came back home I couldn't get my remote to work.  Every time I pressed any button all for lights on the bottom flashed.  Yes, I changed the batteries and that doesnt help.

Anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it?  Thanks

You have to resync it. Look for red buttons or look here: support.nintendo.com

Ive been trying to do that, but it still doesn't work. When I press sync on the remote, all 4 lights flash. I press the sync on the Wii right after and nothing happens

hmmm, try taking out the batteries and putting them back in and re-syncing or replacing the batteries and make sure the Wii is on while you're trying to sync

another thing you can do rather than just try and try until it finally syncs is remove the batteries for about ten minutes and then put them back in and try to sync right when you turn it on, while its on the health notice screen. This seems to work first try no matter what.

Last night when we were playing golf, one of our remotes started acting funny (we played with it the night prior and all weekend and this was not happening), during our golf game it would no longer line up. We turned it off and on, reset and went on to bowling...while bowling it throws the ball very slow, no matter how fast you try to throw it. I turned it off again, recharged the battery and tried it again this a.m. - same thing happened. It seems to be out of balance or something, you can hear it spinning inside. Any ideas on how to fix? It is not even a year old yet... Thanks for any help supplied.
