Front Row running on Macs without built-in iSight

This past Saturday I learned how to get Front Row running on Macs that did not come with it pre-installed. If you are interested then go to andrewescobar.com.



Requirements



1 - Mac OS X 10.4.5 or later

2 - iTunes 6.0.4 and iPhoto 6.0.2 or later (for sharing over Bonjour)



I tried to install it from my user account (non-admin) but I had problems, but when I was logged into the administrator account it installed without any problems. You can run Front Row from the keyboard or you can purchase a Keyspan RF Remote. This remote has an advantage over Apple's infrared remote because it does not require line-of-sight and it works through walls.

    It always did, and this has been known since the first iSight iMacs were released.

    Thanks for reposting the link - I hadn't gotten around to it last time it was available.
