On the USB Dongle Included in the rock band set. If there is a blinking LED. Hit the button included on the Dongle. That should fix it.

"You may need to press the drums button aswell"

DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE USB PLUG FOR THE ROCKBAND DRUMS FOR THE WII AND HOW DO YOU SYNC IT TO THE WII?

Yes, you do need to use USB for rockband drums for wii, but i don't know how to sync the drums, if they're wireless, if it's a wired set, just plug it in the back of the console, i know how to sync a wireless guitar, on the part you plug into the wii, there should be a tiny white button, and the guitar should have a white button on it, push both buttons at the same time (make sure that thee guitar has batteries and the other is in the wii), if done correctly you should be able to play, if the wireless drums work like that too, than i hope this info helped.

How do you sync the wii fit board and wii console

  • Put four AA batteries into the battery housing located on the underside of the Wii Balance Board.

  • Insert a Wii Balance Board compatible game into the Wii system.

  • Select the "Disc Channel" on the screen with the Wii remote, and choose "Start."

  • Open the SD card slot to reveal a sync button on the Wii system. This is located behind a cover under the power and eject buttons.

  • Turn the Wii Balance Board upside down.

  • Remove the battery cover under the balance board to reveal another sync button.

  • Pres the sync button on the balance board, then press the sync button on the Wii. Do not hold down the buttons. You know it is synchronized when the blue light on the Wii Balance Board stays steady

  • Place the board on a flat surface directly in front of the TV. Face the power button away from the TV.

    Flashing lights on drum control pad. no connection to system.

    You must sync the drums. To do this first take off Battery cover of drums.(leave batteries in) Then press the tiny red button on the front of the wii console next to the sd card slot for 2 seconds. In the battery compartment of the drums, there is a tiny red button that looks like the one one the wii. Press it and they should sync. Now your remote should work.

    Please rate.

    My Wii Remotes no longer sync up with the console. How do I remedy this problem?

    I'm sure you have tried most of these steps but I'm going to list them any way. So we have a complete picture of the trouble shooting process.

    1. Sync system first (by pressing the sync button located next to the SD memory slot)
    2. Right after you hit the sync button on the system, hold down the 1 abd 2 buttons on the remote (or press the sync button located under the battery cover).

    Try replacing the battery's and or rechargeable battery for the controller. Repeat the sync process above.

    Try another controller with your wii or try your controller with a different wii. Repeat sync process above.

    If another controller works with your system than that would indicate that there is an issues with your xbox controller.

    If your controller works with another wii and no other controllers work with your wii than there is a issue with your console.

    If your wii is still under warranty I suggest contacting Nintendo directly.

    I hope the info listed above has helped in some way.
    If possible please rate this solution.

    I am attempting to adjust my wii remote sensitivity. The minus button will not work. it is currently set at 5...when I press the plus button it beeps as if I am adjusting in the positive, however when I...

    Hi,


    Here are few Home remedies that should help you fix the issue.If you still face any problems then it is an internal issue with your remote and you will have to contact the nintendo support.
    1. Clean the Wii remote pointer lens. Use a soft cloth to remove any sticky substances. Wii remote jackets, stickers or other objects should not block the remote pointer lens, as it will cause characters to move erratically, disappear or remain off-center.

    2. Operate the Wii remote between three to eight feet away from the sensor. Otherwise, it will not perform properly.

    3. Note that infra-red lights from candles, toys, appliances, fireplaces and even sunlight may effect how the Wii remote performs. Try to remove or reduce infra-red interference from these sources when possible.

    4. Turn off or move wireless devices located near the Wii console. You may be experiencing radio frequency interference from other wireless devices.
    5. Check to see if anything is blocking the sensor. Clear objects away from the sensor and console to enable the remote to send a clear signal to the Wii system.
    6. Center the sensor bar directly below or above your television. Having the sensor off-center may cause the Wii remote to perform poorly.
    Re-sync the Wii remote to the Wii system:
    1. Completely turn off the Wii system. Remove the batteries from the remote. Turn the power off on the Wii console. Unplug the unit from the wall. Wait five seconds and then replug the unit into the wall.

    2. Push the power button to turn on the Wii console. After the health and safety screen appears, open the small door on the front of the Wii console. Locate the red SYNC button. Push down on the SYNC button for fifteen seconds. This resets all previous SYNCS on the Wii system.

    3. Re-sync the Wii remote. Locate the red button on the remote control under the battery cover. Push and release this red button. The Wii remote should respond with blinking blue lights.

    4. Push and release the red SYNC button on the Wii console. Place the batteries back in the remote. When the remote is successfully re-synced, the LED light will remain lit.

    5. Repeat the re-syncing process with all other Wii remotes on this system.
    Thank You

    Wii ROCK BAND DRUMS WONT CONNECT. They were working.

    is there a sync button on the drum set? if so, hit the sync button on the drums and then hit the sync button on the Wii. This will attempt to re-sync the signal of the drum to the Wii console. This has to be done for any new device that gets added to the Wii. Every so often, the Wii will lose connection with the device and has a hard time reconnecting. Sometimes this connection just has to be reset by resyncing the devices. If that doesn't work, you may have a bum product and have to buy a new one. Walmart has a replacement plan starting around 5 bucks depending on the product where, should your product fail within a year, you can order a new one on their site free of charge and have it shipped to the store for pickup. I recommend this for any high price console peripheral. So basically, my advice is to try and re-sync the drum set to your wii via the sync switches on the 2 devices. If that doesn't work, consider replacing. I hope this helps.

    Rock band guitar will not sync to wii

    For me it was the white box that connects to the back of the wii. I tried everything from changing batteries in the guitar, to pressing white button on guitar, to restarting while holding white button down to screaming at the wii. Then I bought a new rockband guitar at best buy and the new guitar did not work until I swapped the white box (dongle?) that connects to the back of the Wii. One is for the drums and the other is for the guitars and mic. Hope this helps.
