Using Harmony One remote with Remote Buddy

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
Hi all,

I've just received a Harmony One remote which is really handy to control my audio systems and home automation (I am a paraplegic). I would like to set up my Mac mini as a media centre with Plex but I don't seem to understand how to get the Harmony remote to work with the mini,RB, and Plex.

I suppose my questions may have been been asked and possibly before, sorry for any inconvenience but I would really appreciate any help you might give me:

- Both multiple remotes and automatic authorisation is selected but pressing keys on the Harmony has no effect nothing seems to happen, i. e. no other remotes appear. 
- RB multiple devices panel shows that the Apple remote has an ID of 134, is this the aluminium Apple remote? 
- When - and if - I can get the Harmony recognised by RB how do I get the Control (C key) added without too much change to the RB Plex mapping? 
- Do I need to pair twice the remotes (Al. Apple and Harmony) in the security prefpane? 
- If I need to pair and start again from scratch will some kind soul help me with step by step instructions to use the Harmony with RB?. I've tried to follow the instruction manual in Help but I must be a klutz cause I'm getting nowhere.

Thanks

Paul
