Chapter 3 Using Your Mac mini 37
Using the Apple Remote and Front Row
The Apple Remote that came with your Mac mini works with the Front Row application
and the built-in infrared (IR) receiver. The IR receiver is located on the front of your
Mac mini to the right of the optical drive.
The Apple Remote opens Front Row so you can play music from your iTunes music
library, watch photo slideshows and QuickTime movie trailers, play a DVD with DVD
Player, and more—all from across the room.
Your Apple Remote can:
 Open Front Row.
 Navigate through the Music, Photos, Videos, and DVD menus in Front Row.
 Navigate in iTunes, iPhoto, and DVD Player.
 Sleep or wake your Mac mini.
You can also use your keyboard to control Front Row. The following keys correspond to
the buttons on the Apple Remote. To leave Front Row, press any alphabetic key.
