The front row is not working. Remote control not triger,

Front row is not working, Remote control no response, command-esc not triger as well.
check keyboard shortcut from system preference, there is no front row.
anyone know why?

Ok first try it in another Account.
1. Open the account system pref window (System Preferences > Accounts)
2. Click the plus button at the bottom
3. Specify an account name (ex: test)
4. Add account
5. Logout of your current account, and login to the newly created one
If it works, then something was wrong with your account, move your files to the new account, and delete the old one.
If it did not work:
1. Try the reinstall again (DO NOT DO "ARCHIVE AND REINSTALL", as this may keep some file that is hindering FR from operating correctly
2. Make sure the FR file is in the Core Services Folder (Macintosh HD/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
3. Make sure that you do not have the IR sensor turned off on your computer (System Prefs > Security > Uncheck "Disable Remote Control IR Sensor")
4. Make sure that your remote is paired (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302545)
5. Make sure that the Command + Esc key is setup to respond by opening front row:
(1) Open system prefs
(2) Open keyboard & mouse prefs
(3) Click keyboard shortcuts
(4) Scroll down until you see front row
(5) Assign the Command + Esc key if it is not mapped
6. Finally, if all else fails, call AppleCare while your computer is still under warranty
Hope this helps,

Airplay is not working , remote does not find library all of a sudden

I am having atypical problem. Sometime in the afternoon all of a sudden my Airplay connection from iMac hard disk to Airport Express is not working or is stopped and then started and then stopped. So in other words not stable. As far as the Apple expert trained service guy is telling me all wifi components are installed ok. meaning Aiprot Extreme as router and 3 airport express n-verisons ( latest models ) . Still it is not working properly.
What i see is that the Wifi conection on the iMac is sometimes not working in particllur hours of the afternoon . It goes of and has to be restarted by hand ( does not reconnect automatically. ).
I hope somebody has some clues what could be the problem why my airplay is not stable... ?

how many batteries do you have and if you hve more than one it does it with both batteries? If you only have one battry that battery made be bad, batteries are fairly inexxpensive I would buy another battery first.Those cameras are selling for $200 new now with just a quick search. Anyway Id try another battery.

My Apple Bluetooth keyboard has stopped working. The top row of keys works but the rest of the keys do not. I was carrying this in my computer bag without turning it off and that is when this started.

My apple bluetooth keyboard has stopped working. The top row of keys works and the iPad sees the bluetooth keyboard (the bluetooth icon is active) but the other keys do not work. For the past coupld of days I have carried my keyboard in my computerbag without turning it off and I am thinking I have done something to make the letter keys to stop working. Two days in a row I did turn on the music as I carried the computer bag into work so I know that some keys were being activated.

*UPDATE*
I have been able to use the Zoom function to zoom in and the keys on the top row no longer are in the non-responsive strip of area.

Front row suddenly stopped working on MacBook

Front row wont start. I am not using it frequently, so I can't say when it stopped working. However, I can control Itues the remote works well with iPhoto too. So there doesn't seem to be any problem with the remote. But, if I press menue, front row wont start, the same if i try the apple button and escape.

Have a look around the forum before you post; you would have found the "No Front Row on MacBook Pro" thread, which contains the fix (install the 1.3.1 update).

Front Row doesn't work on MacBook Pro 17

I just got my nice MacBook Pro 17, which includes Front Row manual and that cute remote control...
However, i could open Front Row.
Actualy, the application is not installed. I just found FrontRow.pkg inside the folder HD/Library/Receipts/FrontRow.pkg
I contact apple.com and downloaded versions there, but couldn't install anyone since the instalers claim that my computer is not equiped to run Front Row (????)
I couldn't get any support form apple.
Could anybody help me, pls?

great!
I found the same question and the SOLUTION in this forum. Thank you!.
Pity that the Macbook Pro17 SPANISH manual just says "open the Front Row application" and not how to do (holding Comand-Esc).....
Nice laptop though....
Thanks again!

Front Row don't work on new Imac Intel.

Hello, i have a problem . i bought an Imac intel isight Mac OS tiger 10.4.7 few days ago , at the beginning front row it's ok becouse i have tried it at once but now if i use the remote control front row doesn't work. it's possible that the problem is connected with the update of itunes 7 ? becouse before the update front row was ok! can you help me ? thanks a lot

Front Row won't work in my user account

So I have followed the threads about non-working Front Row. Mine worked at 1st instal, but when I loaded a a bunch of MP3s into iTunes and then went to Front Row it spat the dummy.
I did as one poster suggested, made another user account; logged in, and Front Row worked immediately. Going back to me as the user, it wouldn't work.
As I understand it, this behaviour points to a preference file problem (?). If so, how does one correct the file problems (editing, delete etc).
I did an archive and instal - same problem
I did an erase and instal - same problem
I trashed the 1.3 update and attempted to re-instal it thru Software Update - but it didn't show as available, altho other software appeared.
From all this, can anyone give me some advice on what I do now? Many thanks for an information.

An update for anyone viewing.
I used the Apple-Esc combination from the keyboard and Front Row worked! But only once.
I came across a topic that suggested "pairing" the remote to my computer by aiming the remote at the Apple logo on my machine, 3-4" away, and pressing the Menu and Fast Forward buttons simultaneously. And that worked! And its continuing to work!
Now, after I'm finished my session and I get back on my machine again - the trick is for Front Row to continue working.
Hope these hints help anyone who might have my problem.

Front Row doesn't work properly in OSX 10.5

I'm having a problem with Front Row not working properly in OSX 10.5
iPhoto transitions aren't working properly in the slide shows, My monitor keeps turning off,
I have a KDS 17" LCD monitor.
Also iMovie will show movies with big blank gaps in the video,
Yet iPhoto and iMovie will run fine using OSX 10.4.10
The other iApps of iLife 08 appear to be alright so far.
Is there a fix coming?
Dave

Figured it out...
The "Front Row" settings were set for a screensaver, That's why the monitor kept blanking out,
I've turned off the screensaver in the settings and "Front Row" works fine now.
There is no screensaver image chosen, That's why the screen kept going blank or even off.
Hope this helps others.
Dave

I just installed the Front Row update. When

I just installed the Front Row update. When I view photos through Front Row, the first album selection that comes up is "Shared Photos" - I set iphoto NOT to look for shared photos. I also set the slideshow NOT to play music. But every time I quit and then re-open iPhoto. those settings are not held - it says to look for shared photos and to play music...
How do I get the settings in iPhoto to stick?

HappySwitcher,
try the following:
Quit iPhoto if it is running.
In your user directory there is folder named "Library". Inside the Library Folder there is a folder called "Preferences". Inside this preference folder there is a file named "com.apple.iPhoto.plist" .
Do the following, click on the name of this file and change it to "com.apple.iPoto.plist" or anything else different than iPhoto.
Now launch iPhoto and adjust your settings.
See if they "stick", if so, you can trash the file whose name you changed. If not try running permissions and repeating the process.
Check back if it does not work.

My Sling Player Does Not Work Remotely on Fios Networks

My sling box is set up locally on a high speed internet in LA.
I have not been able to use my sling player remotely on any FIOS Network.
Other friends have used my computer to connect to their Sling Box and it has worked fine, BUT their Sling Boxes are set up locally on FIOS networks. Mine is on DSL.
btw, it does work remotely on a cable network.
My question is,
"why would sling player not work remotely on a FIOS network, when the sling box is set up locally on a DSL line?"
"Are there any settings that I could change on the local router that would make this problem go away?"
BTW my router is Westell A90
Thanks

Sound like you don't have port forwarding enabled in your Westell A90 for the slingbox.
You would need to go into admin on the Westell router and enable port forwarding for the relevant port to the ipa address of the slingbox. I believe some slingboxes can attempt to do this for you in their configuration.

The front camera on my iPod 5 is not opening

The front camera on my iPod 5 is not working and I have had this problem for a LONG time. When I try to open my front camera, it freezes and does not work. this also happens when I try to use the front camera on apps like Instagram and snap chat. I had this problem before ios7. I've tried a lot of things I tried restarting my iPod, but that didn't work. I've also tried to back-up and restore my iPod on the computer and on the device, but that didn't work. I waited for ios7 to come out because I thought that maybe the camera would start working again if I updated, but I was still having the same problem after the update. it's getting really frustrating because I try to video chat my friends but they can't see me cause the camera won't work! what do I do? I don't think it's a hardware problem because I googled this before and a LOT of people seem to have the exact same problem
here are some additional details that might help:
-this problem started since the 2nd day I had my iPod
-the back camera works just fine
-I did everything except restoring it to factory settings
-I haven't taken it to the Apple store
what do I do? should I restore it to factory settings? will all my music and pictures get deleted if I restore it to factory settings?

Since you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Only the top row of buttons works on the aluminun wireless keyboard

After returning my first wireless keyboard for not pairing with my iMac (which has all the right tech specs) I exchanged it for a new one. Initially, I was able to type letters and numbers only and many of the keys were not doing the task they were supposed to--the F12 keys ejected CDs and the eject button did nothing. I went to the Apple icon and downloaded all of the new updates that showed up, restarted my computer and then suddenly, the eject button worked! But, when I tried to type letters and numbers, nothing happened. My computer recognizes it and the top row of buttons works just fine.

the same has happend to me, it's a new wireless keyboard, and from the moment i paired them only the to row (f1,f2....eject) buttons are working.
what am i to do

Movie trailers in the front row / video

I am wondering if there is anyway to get rid of those movie trailers in the front row/video? They must be taking up hundreds of mb of space? Fun to watch but gees...I would rather have the space on my hard drive (I am stingy that way):)

Jeffrey is correct, Front Row plays the movie trailers from Apple's Web site. They're not kept on your hard drive. That's how they change every week. While a small "cache" might remain behind after playing one, it should be cleaned-off the next time you log off or restart.
