How do I get Front row?

MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   I ave posted because I cannot find where to download Front row...obviously I am new to Macs...someone help me!

If you have a MacBook Pro, you don't need to download FrontRow, it came installed on your machine.
Press and hold the menu button on your remote to invoke Front Row (or click Command-Escape on the keyboard).

  • How do I get Front Row to work with Lion?

    Hello fellow Mac users,
    How do I get Front Row to work with Lion? I have an iMac 27 inch computer and is the sole entertainment provider for my bedroom. I refuse to put a TV in my room and wanted to know how to get Front Row to work again on my mac? It seems that the upgrade to Lion erased the app.
    I have quite a few movies and series that I bought off iTunes and is a shame that I can't use a media center app like Front Row on Lion.

    I kind of have the opposite problem. I need to know how to turn off my remote on the computer. I am using the remote for my Apple TV and it keeps making the volume on my Computer go up and down (with annoying sounds).
    There used to be a way to un-sync the remote with the comp but I cannot remember how and the Apple help is not much help! I have Lion.
    Thanks!
    Best,
    Tony

  • Moved front row to trash and deleted in error.  How do I get front row back on?

    Front row was moved to trash and deleted trash in error.  How do I get front row back?

    Front Row is one of the awesome applications that require an OS reinstall to get back.
    Or if you don't want to do that you can always use Pacifist. http://www.charlessoft.com/
    It essentially lets you pull out specific information from your install disc so you don't have to reinstall everything, just what you need.
    Can you still open it with Command+Esc though? You may not have fully removed it.

  • How do we get Front row to get photos from Aperture

    I just got Leopard and with it came Front Row. I thought this would be great to show my photos form Aperture however Front Row does not display any photos. How do i create a path for Front Row to use.

    Do you have previews enabled? Front Row will require previews.

  • How do I get front row to see external drive

    I have my home movies stored on an external drive connected to my iMac, but front row can't seem to see the external drive. Anyone help me on this?

    Never mind. I figured it out. I have to create an alias folder of the movie folder on the external drive and stick it in the imovie folder on the mac.

  • Get Front Row to play from HVDVD_TS folder

    How can I get Front Row to play content from a HVDVD_TS folder. It works great with standard VIDEO_TS folders (under Leopard/Snow Leopard) but it doesn't seem to recognise my DVD Studio Pro generated HVDVD_TS folder.
    Thx!

    I have the same problem with remote control device (infrared) and FrontRow as many other users, see links below.
    And yes, I have tried all the described "remedies", but the problem is still there.
    The problem is that after boot, FrontRow reacts to the remote ok (about 10-15 minutes), but then
    FrontRow stops responding to remote control commands. However, FrontRow can be controlled by keyboard
    commands all the time. If iMac is now booted, the problem is still there. The only way I have had FrontRow
    and remote work ok (for 10-15 mins) is shutting down iMac, waiting an hour or so, and then booting it. I'm just
    wondering is this hardware problem (related to e.g. temperature ?), problem with FrontRow itself, or problem with
    related daemons. Anyway, I hope that this is sw problem, and Apple could fix quite soon in next FrontRow or Mac OS X
    update. Otherwise, I'm 100% sure to replace my iMac because of this stupid little bug (that seemed to be the only
    working remedy).

  • How do I install Front Row for my MacBook Air with Lion OS

    I need to know how to simply install Front Row onto my MacBook Air with Lion OX 10.7.4. Please help.

    Front Row is indeed "gone." There are alternatives, but first look at these links:

  • 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.

  • How can I move Front Row to a different display?

    I love using Front Row with my MacBook, but I'd love it even more if I could move Front Row from my main display on my laptop onto my second display--a TV screen. I own a Apple mini-DVI to RCA & S-video adapter, and I use this to connect to my TV screen. Obviously, I can get Front Row on my TV screen by turning on Mirror Displays or setting the TV screen as my main screen (dragging the menu bar icon to the second display in the Displays system preference), but both these methods require me to sacrifice use of my desktop on my laptop while I use Front Row.
    Simply put, can I possibly (even sneakily) move Front Row to my second display? Thanks for any help.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Unfortunately, since Front Row has no preferences you can actually change, there's no way to change the screen now. (Besides the work arounds you've already discovered.) I would send Apple some Mac OS X feedback (since Front Row is considered part of OS X, not a stand-alone application) and let them know you'd like to be able specify the screen. You're not the first person here to ask for that option.

  • Is there a way to get Front Row?

    I have a first gen Mac Mini PowerPC , I have Tiger 10.4.5, and i am wodering if there is a way to download Front Row on my computer or is there any way to get front row? or do i have to pay?

    hi salvatore,
    you'd be better off googling for this type of thing.
    front row is only available pre-installed on
    the new imacs
    the macbook pro
    and the new mini
    i think it was first released with the g5 imac w/isight built in, and came with a remote. all the computers that came out with front row have come with an apple ir remote.
    but front row isn't available to put on older systems. it isn't for sale or anything. and won't run on any system besides the new ones that i comes with.
    or so they say. i've heard it can be done. but like i said, you should google it, cause posting that kind of hack would be in violation of the terms of use.

  • Any way to get Front Row to show video playlists such as TV shows?

    I can get AppleTV now to show the TV show playlists in iTunes as their own menu items. However, I can't seem to get Front Row in 10.6 to do the same thing.
    I currently have iTunes 8.2.1 in 10.6.0. Is this something either upgrading to 10.6.1 or iTunes 9 will enable?

    Front Row users have been waiting for this option since video playlists first appeared in iTunes quite some time ago. Unfortunately, I've never been able to make it work. Why Apple can't enable what seems like a simple options is beyond me. My iPod nano can do it but Front Row on my Mac can't. I'd advise you to send Apple some Mac OS X feedback since there's no specific form for Front Row itself:

  • Lost FRONT ROW after completing download of OS Mavericks. How can I recover FRONT ROW?

    Have eventually managed to download Mavericks on my 2009 macbook ( at 2am!!!). Installation fine BUT I no longer have FRONT ROW on my system. Is this a gremlin?  How can I get it back? All assistance greatly appreciated.

    Front Row was withdrawn with the introduction of Lion as it does not officially work with later versions of OS X. Apple prefer you to use AppleTV.
    Other threads here suggest a way of having Front Row with Mavericks. I have no idea of they work.

  • How do I get filtered rows from JTable

    Hello,
    I'm using RowSorter to filter my data on a JTable, but now I need to get the rows that were not filtered out so I can export it to a CSV file.
    Any ideas how to accomplish this?
    Thanks,
    Thiago

    According to the javadoc (http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/table/TableRowSorter.html)
    If you have enabled filtering convertRowIndexToView will return -1 for locations that are not visible in the view.Hopefully you can deduce the rest.

  • How to disable the Front Row?

    Hi, all.
    I would like to try Media Central for the next few weeks.
    However as soon as I start using the remote control, FR is called.
    I still want to keep the FR, just would like to disable it for time being.
    Any advise will be appreciated.
    mini   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    is there another way to open Media Central?? i dont think you can disable Front Row because its like a screensaver you just cant disable it. i mean that Front Row runs in the backround and doesnt show it runs in the Dock. if you do uninstall front row theres a way to get it back i have the link to reinstall Front Row you just need Mac OS X 10.4.5 which i assume you have.
