My remote control is NOT working with my ibook

my front row won't launch! not even with apple button+esc (escape) button.
or with the remote control.
What do i do?

I think you've posted in the wrong forum. As S.U. mentioned, neither Front Row nor an Apple remote come with an iBook computer. Do you have a "MacBook" instead? There is also a whole forum for Front Row here:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1164&start=0
You might post in there if you can't open Front Row with the Apple-esc key combination and you've changed the battery in the remote.

Remote control does not work with DVD player.

I have a HP Pavilion DV6135nr, the remote control came with the computer, its a RC6. I can not get the computer to recognize the remote control.

Have you tried if this remote works with any other HP notebook? if not, have you replaced the battery on the remote to check its not a battery issue on the remote?

ActiveX control is not working with windows NT

I've have a stand alone application which uses an activeX control. The application was compiled using Labview 7.1 on a Windows XP machine. The application will run without any problems on Windows XP and Windows 2000, however the activeX control will not work with Windows NT 4.0. The activeX control is registered, and I have also compiled the application on a Windows NT 4.0 machine. I do not receive any error messages, the application will start but will not communicate with the activeX control. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hello,
Have you tired running the VI by itself (not exe) on the NT machine? Make sure you are doing adequate error checking in your code. It could be possible that the application is generating an error which in not handled appropriately. Also which service pack do you have installed on the NT machine? Please look at the release notes for LabVIEW 7.1 here.

Brightness control does not work with the bluetooth keyboard connected on my iPad2. Please someone could help me ?

Brightness control does not work with the bluetooth keyboard connected on my iPad2. Please someone could help me ?

Julien-
I have the Apple MC184LL/A Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard. The brigtness control works with mine, as do most of the other functions.
Try cycling the keyboard off and on. Hold the power button until the green LED goes out. Then press it one more time to turn it back on.
You might try resetting the iPad's network. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. Then you may need to reconnect your WiFi and Bluetooth.
If that doesn't help, try resetting/rebooting the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart in a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

Brightness and volume control keys not working with windows 7?

brightness, volume control and some other keys keys are not working with windows 7 with macbook pro retina. Can I fix it?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Have you installed Boot Camp drivers? You need them to make your computer work properly on Windows, and to use your function keys as Play or Pause, volume and brightness keys.
To install them, follow these steps:
1. Press the X key while your Mac is starting to start into OS X.
2. Open Boot Camp Assistant and tick only the option to download Windows support software.
3. Windows support software will be downloaded and Boot Camp Assistant will ask you to burn it into a DVD or USB drive, so do it.
4. Start into Windows, insert the DVD or USB drive and install Boot Camp drivers. Your Mac and your volume and brightness keys will be working after installing the drivers

Keyboard: audio and Brightness control keys not working with or without fn

The Keys for controling Audio and Brightness (F1-F5) do not work.
Also combined with pressing the "fn" key the keys do not work.
So i only control audio with the remote control or the slider in the menubar.
Making a reboot with deleting pram didn't help.
I'm running the up to date version of leopard on a macbook pro (core2duo).
I also searched in the forum for this problem.
I oten read about "sytem control"-"keyboard and mouse"-"keyboard" and the F1, F2, etc. to use as...
but switching this button on or off doesn't change anything.

problem solved:
the couse was the software update 1.1 for macbook pro, because there i had the problem like in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6142512&#6142512
and did the solution like that, but there i maybe made some mistakes with renaming and copying, so i rinstalled the update and renamed it a copied to plugins, and now all works as it should.
thanks for help

Volume control buttons not working with new usb keyboard

Hi all,
I recently replaced the bluetooth keyboard that came with my iMac with the usb keyboard (the long aluminium one, with the number block). Typing is no problem, but the volume control keys dont seem to work with this keyboard as I was used to with the bluetooth keyboard: max vol, increase/decrease and vol. off dont operate with any of the keys (f, alt, str, cmd, shift). Only thing I can do is get a view of the running programs or make the current application vanish from the screen.
Tried to change the keyboard setting in preferences for the F1-12 keys - made no change.
help is very much appreciated.
Thanks

I was able to fix this bug by upgrading to OS X 10.6.8.
Very strange that a) it was a problem in the first place and b) that the upgrade did not happen automatically
Thanks very much to Haggibbor, who alerted me to that possibility. Since I read this in a thread I did not open myself, I unfortunately do not know how to let him have the 10 points I would like him to receive. (Hints for this newbie are very welcome.)
Problem of volume control keys is now solved.

Remote video streaming not working with Windows Server Essentials Media Pack

I installed Server Essentials Media Pack and the video streaming via remote access does not seem to be working. I see all the video files on the server's remotewebaccess page in "Media Library" group. When I try to play the video in Chrome
the player appears for a brief moment, but then the browser starts downloading the entire file. With Internet Explorer the empty browser window opens and the download starts. I am trying it while outside of my local network. The video streaming used to work
with Server 2012 Esesentials. Am I missing some additional codecs or remote streaming is no longer supported?

Hi,
What’s the default player for these media files on your computer? The issue may be caused by the default player could not load the media file correctly. Please make sure Windows Media Player
with full codec installed is the default one. And then check if the media streaming feature could work as normal. Here is an article about how to configure the media streaming feature, hope it helps.

Osascript for remote login does not work with Leopard

We are testing Leopard on one computer in our labs. The only problem so far is that the osascript that we use to remote login to the computers stopped working (although it works fine on the Tiger machines):
osascript <<EndOfMyScript
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "public"
keystroke tab
delay 0.5
keystroke return
keystroke tab
delay 0.5
keystroke return
keystroke return
end tell
EndOfMyScript
This is a public account with no user password. I've read the discussion below, but have not been able to tweak the command so that it works with Leopard. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I'm having a similar problem - the script below works with my G5 iMacs running 10.4.9 but not the Intel iMacs running 10.4.8. It almost works - the username and password appear in the right boxes, so I run around the room pressing the Return key.
# This script when used with ASR Send UNIX command will login workstations at the LoginWindow.
# The script assumes that the cursor is focused in the Name field.
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke "username"'; \
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke tab'; \
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to delay 0.5'; \
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke "password"'; \
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to delay 0.5'; \
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke return'

My remote Control doesn't work with my new imac

I have a brand new iMac 27" with mountain lion, and Doesn't work with my aluminium remote control, I already follow the steps on Help, but there's no IR option on the advanced button of security and privacy. Of course I already check with my iphone dock and the batteries are OK, So I think it's a bug from the OS.

Kensigton keypad calcualtor not working with my iBook

Hi, I want to use an external numeric keypad for spreadsheets. I bought a kensington pocket keypad calculator and it says it is Mac compatable. Kensington tech support said it should work. the usb port works with other things. I get +-*/ to work but no numbers. Help please!

Well, sticking with you doesn't help you much if there are no answers.
Upon checking, I find this web page which documents exactly what you have said:
http://www.megamacs.com/v1/index.php?action=view&pid=3232699&D=1
The keypad first became available on Amazon in 2003, well after OS X was released. Everything I can find says it should work, so I don't have the answer. I'm sorry.
You have a PC, too, so I guess you aren't too put out about going that route, but I so much prefer OS X over Windows (having tried Windows twice) that I couldn't bear to switch, myself. Have you checked out the features in Tiger? Very nice. And Leopard, due out next spring, promises to be better yet. With me, it's all about the OS, and even though I know it's harder to find peripherals that are compatible, it's worth it to put up with that, in my case, in favor of the Mac operating system.
I can't help but think that it's a problem within the keypad itself, since other devices work with the USB ports on the iBook.

IPod Remote application does not work with Ethernet

I can control iTunes on my MacMini from the Remote application on my iPod Touch only if the Mini is connected to the router by WiFi, but not if it connected by Ethernet cable. Unfortunately, I need to connect the MacMini to the router by Ethernet (because of another problem), but this is preventing me using the Remote application.
The wireless access point is an Airport Express connected to the router by Ethernet cable. The iPod Touch communicates with the Airport Express.
The Remote application cannot find my iTunes music library. However it can connect to the MacMini using "ssh". When I select "Add Library" on the remote, the iPod does not show up in iTunes on the Mini. I have tried turning off the firewall in the MacMini but this does not help. However, if I connect the MacMini by WiFi instead of Ethernet cable, it works fine.
My router has a firewall between the Internet and the LAN, but not between the LAN ports. I also cannot see any settings on the Airport Express that might block this connection.
Any help would be appreciated.
