Did 10.4.3 Mess Up Front Row?
Yesterday, Apple upgraded Mac OS X to version 10.4.3. The update broke the script that opened Front Row and clicked the Escape button for you automatically. Whether or not this was done on purpose by Apple, I don’t know, but it doesn’t matter because I have found a solution.
This is the solution:
- Go into /Applications/AppleScript/ and open up Script Editor.
- In Script Editor, copy and paste this code:
tell application “System Events”
tell application “Front Row” to activate
key code 53 using {command down}
delay 0.0
key code 53
end tell - Press File, Save As, and name it to Launch Front Row, in your Applications folder overwriting the previous script, and change the file format to Application. Press save.
- If you followed my previous instructions then you should be good to go.
