MacBook Air 2010 and remote control
Does anyone tried if new MacBook Air (2010) works with Apple remote control (infrared)?
Macbook Air, Mini, Mac OS X (10.6.4)
Just get a sweet wireless mouse and keyboard. That's what I've always used.

search in the list if the phone you have is compatible, then install the little program and you may even have a remote MOUSE 😀 by just clicking it on your phone
PS. even if it yoru phone is not in the list there is a big chance that it will work, (mine wasnt in the list and it works like a charm) it is based on java if I understand corectly and most of the phones understand that programing language.
Hi Andy,
Great it is that I landed up on your page...I am not able to install Kensington Clicker on my MacBook Air 11. I would really appreciate if you can help. I just bought a K33374EUB and now struggling with it.
Thanks

Yup. It is rubish. Doesn't work out of the box. Weird keys. No direct powerpoint and keynote support. I bought it and have given up on it.
