Can an old Mac without the Apple Remote use FrontRow?

» 02 September 2008 » In Uncategorized » No Comments

The Remote Buddy application supports just about any remote hardware that is available for the Mac. Its kind of like a pimped up version of FrontRow. Here is the video showing all features. The site has a good overview over all possible hardware solution for enabling remote control over old Macs.

One altenative is the Keyspan Express Remote Control sold at Amazon for $46.24. (white image)

Or one can buy an original Apple Remote, around 20 Dollar, and then buy a IR receiver. This one is enabling the Apple Remote for every old Mac without IR with Twisted Melon’s Manta TR1.

Broken Apple Remote for your Mac with IR and bought a new remote? If your Apple Remote has been locked to your Mac, it must be unlocked: Apple icon -> System Prefs – > Security -> And if it is connected to your Max: This Mac will only work with the connected remote. Click: Delte connection (not quite sure about the specific wording.. :)

Unlock several files at once – osx

» 13 January 2008 » In Uncategorized » No Comments

This fantastic application, LockMeBaby, does what osx should be doing on its it: namly being able to unlock several files, folders and subfolders in one go! It even works on external harddisks.

http://soramimi-works.net/software.shtml

I sent the company an email with some questions and rapidly got a reply:

Here’s how to lock/unlock files on external drives by LockMeBaby:
1) Uncheck “Run in safe mode” in the preference panel.
2) Select “/ (Root)” from the popup as browser’s root directory.
3) In the leftmost column, you’ll find a directory “Volumes”. Your
external drives should be listed under “Volumes” directory.

Hope this helps and please be careful when you turn off “Safe mode” as
many system-related files appear in LockMeBaby’s browser.
