Apple Remote - Boot Camp Compatibility

Boot Camp Compatibility

Since Boot Camp 1.2, the remote has had some functionality when a user is running Windows. If the user has iTunes installed on the Windows partition, pressing the Menu button on the remote will load the program. In addition to interfacing with iTunes, the remote's media controls also support Windows Media Player, as well as system volume control. Other third party programs may also utilise the remote's capabilities; media applications such a foobar2000 and Media Player Classic allow users to control their functions via the remote. However, applications have to have focus for the remote to control them. Boot Camp 4, the latest version of the software, also includes drivers for the remote control.

Famous quotes containing the words boot and/or camp:

    ... until the shopkeeper plants his boot in our eyes,
    and unties our bone and is finished with the case,
    and turns to the next customer, forgetting our face
    or how we knelt at the yellow bulb with sighs
    like moth wings for a short while in a small place.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    When the weather is bad as it was yesterday, everybody, almost everybody, feels cross and gloomy. Our thin linen tents—about like a fish seine, the deep mud, the irregular mails, the never to-be-seen paymasters, and “the rest of mankind,” are growled about in “old-soldier” style. But a fine day like today has turned out brightens and cheers us all. We people in camp are merely big children, wayward and changeable.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
