I lost the remote to my macbook

hey folks,

my car was impounded not too long ago and it seems like the guys figured it was an ipod or something and jacked it. anyway, is there a way i can replace it? thanks in advance

You often see them on eBay (well eBay UK seems to have a few).

The Apple US site sells them new clicky not sure if the url I've left for you will be session based - if so you won't be able to follow the link - but try it anyway. I just typed remote in the Apple Store - it was about the 5th product in the results list and costs $29.

I saw one the other day at Circuit City not too long ago. Was about $50 or so. Guess they have some markup with that. Think I'll try not to lose mine , but stuff happens.

Yep, RNDdave, your right, the link is session based....

Apple Remote Control

This is from the ozzie eBay site ^^^

That item doesn't look like it ships outside of Aust but you could probably ask the seller about that.

i don't think i've ever used mine.

i guess it could be stolen too, for all i know!

me too mine is still sitting in the white box my new mac came in, never touched it, i dont even know if it works

Just like the others, I have not used mine stored safely in the box

Yep, Apple sells them individually to buy for your Universal Dock & iPod.

I've used mine quite a few times in these first few days of ownership - it works super with front row - handy for moving a bit faster through some of the 'embarrassing' shots. It's also quicker to use when listening to music in the background - to skip or control volume.

My case has a small case for the remote that attaches to it which looks pretty cool and means I don't lose it, but I also haven't used it much - nice for showing photo slideshows etc.

I'm sure that I could send my iMac to snoozeland when I first tried my remote, but now it doesn't seem to work - or I've forgotten how to bring it on...

Hold play/pause.

That's it! Ta moss918!! I use it with iTV also and get a bit confused with what controls what sometimes....lol

It's easily done, no problem!

Ebay is the cheapest.

can we use the remote to flip through a power point presentation?

thanks

You know, they do sell them at Wal-mart, because they work for the iPod Dock.

i actually had the same problem for 7 months lol lost it in my dorm room in the beginning of the year. i went to compusa today actually and bought one for 32 dollars after tax...works great. now just gotta hope i dont loose it
