k so..i have dish and my remote isn't working anymore. [ and yes, i put new batteries in..haha] i wanted to know if its' happened to any of you before and what i could do.

it prob. broke. You need to get a new one.
Make sure the codes did not get changed. Does it work the sat or TV or VCR.
If it works 1 or some, it needs to be reprogrammed.
