A method for transferring information to a remote control includes storing information in a transfer medium, inserting the transfer medium into a remote control that may or may not have already been programmed with information of the same type as that in the transfer medium, inputting the information from the transfer medium, and storing the information from the transfer medium in memory. Another embodiment of the method transfers information between remote controls. A remote control includes a processor, memory, and a transfer medium port. The processor is responsive to a data signal and the port is adapted to receive a transfer medium with information to be transferred to the remote control. The processor stores the information in memory. The remote control may also download information, which is to be transferred to other remote controls, into the transfer medium and the transfer medium may be reused to program additional remote controls.
