Hi Ed, Still don’t see the benefit of using an software app towards fixing a piece of hardware with buttons that no longer work.
I’ve seen/found various sources to buy new for $15 to $30 or so. But maybe like you, there must be many who put their remote back in the box after not using it for a new purchase. Any other list-readers have a ‘new' or ‘used' one available? -russ > On Nov 5, 2015, at 7:52 AM, Ed Wiser <[email protected]> wrote: > > Russ there is a apple remote app in the App Store. > Your remote is pretty old I remember getting one with my old 17" MacBook Pro. > Don't know where I put it.
