Sometimes "resynchronization" is required when the remote or car battery is disconnected or in a low state of charge. Try pressing and holding the lock and unlock buttons on the remote at the same time for 7 seconds - the door locks should cycle and the parking lamps flash. If that doesn't work I'd try reprogramming the remote. They didn't drop it did they?
I know ya got it fixed, here are some ways to customize it

2 chimes and your car is equipped with Content Theft-Deterrent System means you can also program Remote Keyless Entry Verification, Arming Method, Arming Verification, Driver's Door Delay and Shock Sensor Enable.
