Front Row disappeared? Re-installing Front Row?

My Macbook came with Front Row installed, but I haven't used Front Row in a few months. Today, as I wanted to use it, it wasn't there anymore in my applications folder. When I searched for it in Spotlight, I found two files:
1. FrontRow.pkg
2. FrontRowUpdate1.3.pkg
Both are located in the Library\Receipts Folder.
When I tried to reinstall FrontRow using either of these files, the installer starts and leads me through the installation process. However, it doesn't complete the installation citing "errors".
Can anyone explain what might have happened? Is there a way to re-install FrontRow from the OSX CDs or to download it from the website? Thanks for any help.

Yes, Front Row does not live in the Applications folder. Because it lives in the "System" folder, Spotlight won't find it. Spotlight specifically ignores the System folder.
The two files you found, in the "Receipts" folder are indications that Front Row and the Front Row 1.3 update have already been installed. (The Software Updated looks in there to see if you're up-to-date or not.) They are just "receipts" for the previous install, they're not full installer files.
If you had needed to, you can re-install Front Row only by running the "Install Bundled Software" utility on your Mac OS X install disk. There's a "customize" window where you can manually turn on or turn off the additional software, like Front Row, that was included with your Mac.

How to install Front Row on PB 15"...

Hello everyone,
I have heard a little "trick" that allows you to install Front Row on PowerBook 15". Using Pacifist (www.versiontracker.com)to install the package FrontRow Updates 1.0.1...Have anyone tried this before?
I have tried but it doesn't work...
Any suggestion?
Cheers,
James
P.S. It is supposed to work only by Key Combination like Apple-Escape or something like that but I did not see the key combination in Key&Mouse Preference for Front Row.

Hi, James - I have Front Row installed on my PB and it works perfectly. In fact, I know a couple of people who are using their mobile phones as remote controls.
The problem may be that you need to install Front Row Enabler after installing Front Row. Restart after each installation. The Front Row keyboard shortcut should appear at the bottom of the list in System Preferences:
Other key commands are:
Arrow Keys - spin and move up and down
Option+Up/Down - set volume
Enter or Spacebar - select menu, playlist, song, movie, etc.
Escape - go back to previous menu/screen
Tab - return to desktop

Installing Front Row?

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to install front row on a mac mini, that has a powerPC G4 porcessor. thanks.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)

In theory, you could, but you had to go through a process which involved (censored).
In practice, you should not try, because Apple Legal will make you disappear.
Apple's position appears to be that if your Mac didn't come with it, and you download it (or install it from iLife '06) and try to use it (with third-party remotes, etc.), you're a pirate and will be prosecuted as such. If you downloaded Front Row, get rid of it and any backups of it. NOW.

Front Row won't install

I have a new mac mini intel. I'm new to the mac world. Front row is not installed, so I found a package for it using spotlight - there is also an update package. When I run through the installer, it fails -giving me a useless message "There were errors installing the software - Please try again". I have no idea where to look for more details or how to get help from Apple. Any advice is appreciated.

Press Command (⌘) Escape
Or press the menu button on the remote.
This will start FrontRow.
If not reinstall OS X from the install disk which came with your Intel Mac mini.

Yes, Front Row works great with Mavrick 10.9.2
Copy these files from a snow-leopard installation (e.g. your backup) to the appropriate folders in Mavrick 10.9.2:
/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/BackRow.framework
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/iPhotoAccess.framework

Front Row disappeared from my computer

Ok, here's the deal. I was having some problems with my optical drive so I took my iMac G5(iSight) to a Mac store. They had to reinstall Tiger, which they did, but now Front Row is no longer on my computer, even though it came with Front Row already installed on it. I stopped back and they said I could use the reinstallation disks to get it back on there, so I put in the disk, clicked on "Reinstall Bundled Software" and it went through the entire software installation process....still no Front Row. Anyone have any clue what's going on here? I gave it to a Mac Store and when I got it back, Front Row was missing. I'm just trying to get figure out how I can get it back.
Thanks in adavance

The guy at the Mac store said that Front Row isn't a part of Tiger so he said they're not responsible...
Who was this guy? Where did you take your iMac in for service? Users of Intel-based Macs can re-install Front Row from the "bundled software" installer on the Mac OS X install disk. However, Front Row is NOT included in the "bundled software" installer for G5 iSight iMacs. Front Row is included in the Mac OS X installer for those Macs. Your technician is misinformed and used the incorrect disk to install Mac OS X. I would take your iMac back and have then use the correct disk to re-install Mac OS X. They are responsible for your copy of Front Row as it IS included with Mac OS X for your model.

Problem Installing Front Row

Hi, when I try to install Front Row, I can open the installer, go through the agreement stuff and choose the location, but then it always says "Please try installing again." I really can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Can someone help? Thank you so much!

Why do you need to install Front Row?
Front Row only comes with the new Intel macs preinstalled and there is no need to install it. You cannot install Front Row on a PowerPC machine, expect certain iMac G5's.
If you really need Front Row, wait for Leopard which has been said to include the "Complete Package" and get Front Row the legal way with it.

Luis

Pagination disappears after setting 'max row count'

I have a report with app. 4500 records (with the default of 15 lines per page) and a pagination scheme of 'Row Ranges 1-15 16-30 in select list (with pagination)'.
When running the report, all is working fine and i get the information in the select list '.. of more than 500'.
Then i inserted some values in the 'max row count'-field:
a value of 2000: it's working as expected
a value of 4000 (or more): the pagination disappears and won't be desplayed :-(
Any ideas, what i have done wrong?
Thanks
Rainer

Hi
This problem - select list dissapearing when > 32k still persists in Version 3.
A neat workaround is to use a page item to set the number of rows disaplyed.
Where there is a large number of rows in the table and the max rows is also large, simply set the page item value for the number of rows to a larger value say 200 - then - if the select list now becomes less than 32K the select list will be shown.
It's a matter of balancing the number of rows shown on the page with the total number of rows in the table / max rows combination.
It's not perfect but it works.
Hope this helps.

Printing 1 Label in Row and Column Other Than Row 1, Column 1

I want to print 1 label and want to print it on Avery label stock in a row and column other than row 1, column 1. I'm using Avery Labels 8163. I can select the row and column I want to print on in Word but can't figure out how to do it in *Address Book*. Anyone know how to do this?

You can't do that in Addrress Book. But you can use pearLabelizer to do that. Be sure you download and install the appropriate Label Definition file and name it as such so you can select it from the pop-up list in the program's Preferences window.

Merging multiple rows in to a single row (when rows meet merging criteria)

Hi
I have a scenario to merge multiple rows in to a single rows when the data in those rows fall in merge criteria .Below is how my data is
Now the merging logic for the above rows is , we need to combine multiple rows in to a single row when the data in those rows permits us to do in that way. Simply saying , its like sandwich where we combine multiple things to a single piece.The output for
the above rows should be
Here we combined Row 1 ,2, 3 in to a single row as the data in those rows permits to merge in to single row. But the row 4 cannot be combined to any of those rows because the data in those rows doesn't permits us do a merge ( As the value of the column
JobSource for the row 4 is different from the other rows ) .
My original data has 56 columns , but for readability i kept only 9 columns.
can you please throw some idea on how to achieve this scenario. I know we need to use CTE for achieving this, but i am not able succeed in doing an iteration on multiple rows.
Appreciate your response .

Thanks for your reply .
Rule for merging is simple . First of all there is no unique row identifier for each row , the fact table is not having an identity column in the database . I called row 1 , row 2 etc in my post above only to make better explanation of my scenario.
The rule for merge is below.
1) we can combine only when the data in a column for one row is null & the data in same column for the other row is not null . It should also satisfy the condition where the data in other columns should conflict each other.
2) Data for all columns for the merging rows should not be conflicting (i.e. we should not merge the rows when the data in a column is not equal to the same column in the other row
,considering not null value)
Steps in merging the above source data :
1) Consider the case of row 1 and row 2 in the source, we can combine these rows as the data is satisfying the rule 1 for columns (Jobsource,Flight, Package,Update,Iscancelled
,Result, Severity) and columns (JobID and RuleName ) fall under rule 2. we merge these two rows in to a single row and keep in that in the table.
2) Then the resulting row is again merged with the second row which is present above by applying the rule 1 and rule 2 . Below would be output of merge operation.
Now there would be only two rows in the output . But these rows cannot be merged as the data doesn't satisfy the merge rules 2 . As Jobsource for the row 1 in the above output is "PresubmissionSource" which is not equal
to "PostSubmission" jobSource which is in row 2. So these two rows are left unmerged .So the above two rows would be the output of merge operation on my source data.
This process has to be repeated for all the rows in the table. As of now my table as 92 Million rows with 56 columns which need to be considered for merging rows. I replicated my scenario in 9 columns and 4 rows to understand better.
