How to use apple mac remote control

Apple snow lepord had front row installed and the remote control would open the front row app after pressing menu button on the remote. , however lion doesnt have that and the menu key doesn't do anything.. can i set the remote in such a way that it opens itunes ?

google it... or search in here there are a couple places that cover how to do it.

    No,
    The new iMacs no longer have an IR receiver.
    If you want to control your iMac remotely.
    If you own an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

    how to use apple dvd remote player?

    What year iMac do you have?
    Are you asking about the separate Apple remote or Apple DVD player or both?
    If your iMac is the new slimline models, there is no longer a bulit-in IR receiver input to use the separate Apple remote any longer.

  • Apple tv remote control is operating itunes on computer

    Occasionally when clicking on the Apple TV remote control, the volume on my computer is being changed at the same time. My computer and Apple TV are in the same room , so how can I make it so the remote only controls the Apple TV?

    Turning off home sharing will not help, indeed it will stop your Apple TV connecting to your iTunes library.
    If you don't want to use a remote with your computer the easiest thing to do is just to turn the IR off. (System Preferences > Security > General, click on the Advanced button in the bottom right corner - If the button is greyed out, click on the lock icon and enter your administrators password))
    If you still want to use your computer remote then you must pair your computers remote with the computer AND the Apple TV remote with the Apple TV.
    To pair a remote with a device hold down the menu and FF buttons together for six seconds or until you see a chain icon on screen (best take the computer into another room, or turn it off, when you do this)

  • We are a creative design studio, we need to use apple mac pro server , so we can make more than a different user to use at the same time doing different activities, on different screens, is it possible?what is the max. no. of users that can work efficient

    we are a creative design studio, we need to use apple mac pro server , so we can make more than a different user to use at the same time doing different activities, on different screens, is it possible?what is the max. no. of users that can work efficient.
    Appreciate your support and if possible , how to do this?

    If you want to work with Mac OS X, you need one computer per simultaneous user.
    What you are describing, " Multiple simultaneous logins to a single computer" is not avialable on a regular Mac of any description, unless you decide to use Unix tools instead of Mac OS X.
    Server will happily store files for many, many users and provide them to multiple (up to hundreds) of computers at "near hard Drive" speeds over Gigabit Ethernet. It can make the File Sharing part easy.

  • How to used apple ID in the iTunes store?

    how to used apple ID in the iTunes store?always the problem was this " This apple ID has not yet  been used in the iTunes store?

    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?
    also you can
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

    sounds more like Bluetooth rather than moue, but w/o knowing w/o posting mac model type/year we... will... not... know... what you have
    All computers are personal computers, a PC though is also "non-Apple" in common usage.
    Mac also is platform and OS.
    Very confused reading what you are trying to tell us.
