Overview
Apple Remote with iPod and iPhone
If you connect your iPod to a home stereo, powered speakers, or TV set, the Apple Remote lets you experience your songs, slideshows, and more from across the room. Plug your iPod into the Universal Dock and choose a playlist, slideshow, or video. Then sit back, relax, and enjoy. Ready to move on to the next song? No need to get up. Just press the Next button on the Apple Remote. Getting a call on your iPhone? Press Pause, then pick up where you left off.
The Apple Remote requires the iPod Universal Dock and any iPod with a dock connector or any iPhone.
Apple Remote with Mac
The Apple Remote gives you total command of your music, photos, videos, and DVDs from anywhere in the room. It works with Front Row — a menu-based, full-screen interface — to make accessing the digital content on your Mac as simple as navigating your iPod. When you press the Menu button, your desktop fades and the sleek Front Row interface takes its place to give you control over your music in iTunes, your photos in iPhoto, the videos in your Movies folder, and your DVDs. Turn up the volume. Shuffle. Skip to the next chapter on your DVD. Play a slideshow, a home movie you made in iMovie, even a movie trailer.
Compatible with Apple products introduced in 2005 or later that have a built-in infrared (IR) receiver.

Written by ZS from Avon
Oct 21, 2009
I was disapointed when i bought this wonderful remote and tried to put it on the side of my iMac like i did for my old ine. Wrong first of all the back surface is not flat its curvedd for design which doesnt have enough surface area to stick to the side of the imac.Later I tried sticking a stronger extrenal magnet to it and fould out its not magnetic at all. I thought it was magnetic.Overall it's a great remote and i like the ipod click wheel volume control too! …More

Apple Remote
Much Improved
Written by WM from MISSOULA
Nov 17, 2009
A lot better than the old plastic remote which would get lost in my hands. The new remote has a slight heft and a much better feel. The buttons are much more responsive and the overall look is great. $15 dollars would be a better price but $19 is worth it since it will probably last many years! …More

Apple Remote
Overall an awesome product
Written by JJ from Marlton
Nov 17, 2009
I really like this remote better then the last one that seems fitted better for the White MacBook Unibody. It is very sleek and goes perfectly with my MacBook Pro. It definitely looks and feels like a real remote. The old one seems like something you would use on an iHome system. With the click wheel look and getting rid of the "+", "-", etc., it looks better. For almost twenty dollars, you are getting a great product. …More
