Front Row - app on Ipad?

I would love to see the Front Row app similar to how it works on my appleTV on my ipad. I tried to look for a front row app on the app strore. Null, nothing.
i would like to see all the movie previews on the confort that the ipad offers. Is there a direct way around this, that is not so crazy complicated. Or should i just wait, God knows how long for it to appear on the apple app store.  thank you.

Submit your feedback to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:
http://www.apple.com/feedback
But, as I said, it's pretty clear that FrontRow is abandoned. Even the AppleTV interface changed from one that looked a lot like FrontRow to one quite different. I remember the kerfuffle in the ATV forums when that happened.
I'm sure there are other apps in the App Store that will let you looke at movie previews. If you're open to the idea that they may not work just like FrontRow, you may find something that works just as well. Fandango was only one example. The Moviefone app looks pretty good. And it's free so you can always try it, delete it if you don't like it.

  • Front Row & Leopard - app will not start via remote or via Applications

    I recently upgraded to Leopard. Front Row does not start via either remote or the Applications folder. I get "Application Front Row quit unexpectedly" dialogue box repeatedly. Anyone else seeing this? What can I do? I get the following Report:

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I would suggest you use the Accounts System Preferences to create a new user. Log out and log in as the new user. Does the same thing happen to the new user? If so, you have a system-wide problem that may require re-installing Mac OS X. If they don't encounter the same error, then there's some preference or setting in your user's folder that's causing the problem. I'm not really sure, but the "missing image" line at the bottom would seem to me something that might require you to re-install Mac OS X...

  • Front Row not working on new MacBook Pro

    Hello all,
    I cannot get Front Row to work on my new MacBook Pro. I've confirmed that my Apple Remote works using iChat's video preview to see the flashing IR transmitter. I've pressed Cmnd+esc also. I've even tried to double-click on the System >> Library >> CoreServices >> Front Row app to no avail. If someone could help me, I would appreciate it. Many thanks in advance.
    2.2 GHz Core2 Duo MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.10)   4 GB RAM

    Front Row doesn't usually open if you double-click the application in the CoreServices folder, so that's not unusual. The one troubleshooting step I might try, before calling AppleCare Support since your computer is new, would be to use the Accounts System Preferences to create a new user. Log out and log in as the new user. Can the new user open Front Row with command-esc or the remote? If so, then your original user has a preference file problem. If not, then you may need to re-install Front Row and/or Mac OS X. If your Mac is less than 90 days old, I'd call AppleCare Support and get some help from them to do that (also so they're made aware that a new computer required that in case there's an issue at the factory).

  • Front Row is GONE!! Why, Front Row, why?!

    I haven't used Front Row in a long time (I lost my remote, oops), but on my recent trip home I found my remote again. When I used it on my MacBook, it worked fine. Suddenly though, it controls iTunes and the volume of the computer but hitting menu does nothing. The second screen doesn't show up. I checked the remote using my iSight and it's working, and the "Unpair" function is not available. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Can you open Front Row using the keyboard? Pressing Apple-esc together should open Front Row. You can then use the arrow keys and the return key to move around. If you can't run Front Row with the keyboard, you might look to see if it's still installed. It should be in this path:
    <Macintosh HD>/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app
    If it's not in there, you'll need to re-install it from your original Mac OS X install disk. You can do this by running the "Install Bundled Software Only" option on the disk. There's no need to boot from the disk. On the "Installation Type" screen, there should be a "Customize" button where you can uncheck all the other options but make sure Front Row is checked "on" and then run the installer.

  • Itunes/front row Authorization Issue

    THis is the first time i al very upset with an apple software. One week into the use of my new Macbook I was extremely thrilled to see the Front Row app running with the remote. I decided to import the mostly used Audio CDs that I have (originals) and imported them in MP3.
    I hook up my Macbook to my home theater, sit down, use the neat little remote, and my music won't play
    "Computer not authorized to play this track".
    So now what? What can I do to play my tracks?
    Paul

    You are trying to a play a track that was purchased from the iTunes store. Just open iTunes and try to play the track again. It will prompt you for the user name and password that were used when the track was purchased. It will then authorize playback on that computer and then should play fine.
    Any tracks you import yourself from CDs don't need authorization.

  • Front Row Locking up with Movies

    So far computer is behaving well, although I have found that Front Row will lock up if I try and view movies or podcasts, however movie trailers work fine.
    I can force quit but after that Front Row won't launch any more until I restart. This seems repetable with same results. Viewing pictures from iphoto works fine.
    Is anyone else having this problem. How else can I launch front row other than the remote. I don't see an app called Front Row. I want to see if issue is with remotes functionality or with Front Row.
    Oh, also how about DVD playback? I have not run search on this yet but someone else with new imac had one DVD play fine and another one lock up.

    Just to follow up on my own post...
    Running the sample command on the unresponsive Front Row.app showed it was trying to resolve a font.
    I had disabled the Hoefler Text font using Font Book, in an attempt to get iWeb to render blog pages as HTML instead of as images. After re-enabling Hoefler Text I re-launched Front Row, and it did not lock up.
    I'll post a follow-up if the lockup recurs.

  • IBook G4 +Front Row =?

    I have an iBook G4. I really want to have Front Row. As I understand it, one really doesn't need the remote to control, but rather, one can use System Preferences to set control keys. However, is there a way in which I can download and install Front Row to an iBook.

    Front Row 1.2.2 is working great on my iBook 12" 800MHz.
    I copied the software-update-installed Front Row.app from my Intel iMac to my iBook.
    I backed up the hacked v1.0.1 first, including the prefs. Since you can't remove Front Row.app from the /System/Library/CoreServices because it's "in use" you need to restart holding the shift key down for a Safe Boot.
    Login and then remove the hacked version after using admin pw.
    Then copy the 1.2.2 version from a properly installed "legal" Mac to the CoreServices folder. I also removed the prefs file as a safeguard as well.
    Restart and you're in! It is much, much snappier! It's really unbelievable the difference.
    Now with my iBook/10.4.6 640Mb/800MHz, I am NOT experiencing any problems...yet...and maybe the problems are isolated to PowerBooks as mentioned in another post.
    But hey, it works now for me! Hack-free!

  • Front Row Slideshow Music Problem

    Hello:
    I have been unable to change the Photo Slideshow music in Front Row. I go into iPhoto, select SlideShow and select my music, but it does not seem to save it to Front Row. I've even tried making my selections as "default" but it doesn't work.
    I've tried repairing permissions on my disk, and there do seem to be problems with Front Row. However, no matter how many times I repair, the permissions still persist. Log file below
    Can anyone offer any tips to a newbie (recently switched from a PC.)

    Thanks; that's a relief, though the permissions that are referenced in the thread you pointed out (that can be safely ignored) seem to me mostly related to iPhoto Access and not Front Row (I seem to have both Front Row and iPhoto permission problems.)
    So, can anyone offer any suggestions on how to change my music in Front Row's Slide Show?

  • Front Row GONE after A&I...

    Hey y'all,
    Just tried activating Front Row - didn't work with the remote or the keyboard (on my MacBook).
    Had a look in Core Services, and the Front Row app is gone!
    I did an Archive & Install a few days back, and Front Row always worked before them (heck, because it was INSTALLED and THERE)...
    Any ideas how to get it back? Is there an installer on the included discs that I could use Pacifier to get to and install it?
    Argh!

    I'm am having the same problem. I just did an Archieve and Install on a Mac Mini.
    Front Row app is gone. It is still in the Core Services folder of the previous System but not in the new one.
    Doing a search for it does not show anything except the old .plist file.
    I guess I'll give Apple a call...
    I wonder what else is gone...

  • Putting Front Row on an Ibook late 2004 after archiving & installing 10.5

    front row will not appear in dock after upgrading. Cannot put front row into dock because it is not possible to select dock while front row is running after upgrading to leopard 10.5.1
    click on download link at the following site:
    http://lucidsystems.org/luciddocktools.html
    install the program. Then go to the utilities folder and start terminal. In the terminal window paste the following and press enter:
    additemtodock /Applications/Front\ Row.app
    front row will appear in dock. you can then run front row-minus the remote control which ibooks don't have.

    You don't need to wait for an application to run to keep it in the Dock, Front Row included. And you don't need to add a utility or to use Terminal to do this.
    Instead, just navigate in the Finder to the Applications folder (or wherever it is stored) & drag it from the Finder window to the Dock.

  • How do I uninstall Front Row Enabler (Andrew Escobar) ??

    hey everybody
    im on a powerbook g4 (power pc) and on 10.4.7
    i did that stupid andrew escobar - Front Row Enabler so I could have Front Row on my non-infared powerbook.
    it seemed like a cool idea for awhile, now i am in desperate need to update to 10.4.11.
    it says in many forums that if you install any 10.4.8 - 10.4.11, front row's bezel patches will crash your computer into a blue screen and you will not be able to login.
    i am nervous to update, but i am in desperate need to. does anyone here know how to uninstall this Front Row Enabler? if you would be so kind, that would be great.
    thanks,
    smitt

    actually i answered my own question
    i located the front row app, deleted it
    then i redownloaded my 10.4.7 PPC pkg from Apple
    then using pacifist (free DL at versiontracker) i extracted the 2 bezel files (that front row enabler patched to get Front Row to work on a non-Front Row working machine)
    i then replaced the corrupted 2 bezel files with the original 10.4.7 bezel files (non-patched) and simply restarted and now it allowed me to update to 10.4.11
    here's the specific instructions, smittay
    Manually Uninstalling Front Row:
    1. Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app).
    2. Download Mac OS X Update 10.4.7 Combo PPC from Apple.
    3. Open the disk image
    4. Download Pacifist and copy application to the Application folder.
    5. Use Pacifist to open the Mac OS X Update Installer package file (which ends in .pkg)
    6. Search for “bezel” and install only these two specific files folders:
    /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/BezelServices.framework/
    /System/Library/LoginPlugins/BezelServices.loginPlugin/
    7.Restart.
