BEO4 setup - radio, cd, a tape functions don't seem to work?

Probably your BEO4 has an older SW. For the moment, i'm afraid, I have no clue.

I suspect that the Beo4 has keyboard problems. The remote is faulty.

As far as I know, there is no way to disable the buttons on the remote and no way to enable them.

The setting up  functions on the remote merely control what additional functions are present when you press LIST (a quicker ADD/REMOVE function)

View the IR emitters with your mobile phone camera and press the offending buttons - you should see the IR diodes emit the signal if the buttons are working.

There is also the possibility that your Beo4 has been set to a permanent link mode. To disable press standby list, then list again until you reach "config" (not sure what to do if config is not present on your remote) and then 2 0 0 2.

Thanks everyone for the help, doesn't look like there is an easy answer though.

Might look for another Beo4.

Did you check the IR-emitter with your handy Camera?

I did it shows several of the buttons are not working :-(
