Silver Apple Remote will not pair with new iMac

Silver Apple Remote will not pair with new iMac. Internet examples say right and Menu but show left and menu. But neither work. I put in a fresh battery.

iMac 27″, macOS 10.13

No. It won't. New iMacs don't support the remote.

New macs don't support Infrared, that is what your remote is so that is why it is not supported.
