I have a white, black, red and bare cooper wires coming from ceiling. The fan I bought has a remote and the remote sensor is already installed/attached to the mounting hardware.
The remote sensor has a white wire and a red wire coming out of it and a bundled wire that is blue, black and white and has a cap to plug into the same bundling on the motor; the motor also has a green wire grounded to it.
Any idea which words to connect to the ceiling from my electrical box? I attached the white to white and black from ceiling to red in remote sensor and nothing worked.
I took a picture as well and will try to post.

If this is correctly wired, using the US color conventions, and the old fan had separate wall-switches for the fan and its lights:
Check that with a meter or test light, though!
If you're adding a remote-control receiver, see its instructions for how it connects between power and the fan.
