Default Keyless entry

Has this ever happened to anyone?
I programmed the keyless remote via the HUD. It worked according to the owners manuel. Then when I get out of the car to use it, it doesn't work. So then I try programming it from outside the car, again per the manual, and the car horn beeps signaling the remote is programmed, but again if I try to use it to lock/unlock the car immediately, it doesn't work.
Can anyone diagnose this phenomenon?

Do you have more then one key fob? Try a different battery? I've seen some other people with this problem... seems the code gets out of sync with the car. I think it's a bad key fob.
