Problems Controlling iMAC with Beo5

3 replies

I tried to control my new iMAC with the template of Keith  written for macbook.

But it don´t work. I tried to  synchronize  the BEO5 on the iMAC, there I have to press the buttons "Menu" and "next".

So I pressed "Menu" on the BEO5-Display and the double-arrow-hard-key (>>)

But the Mac does not react. The "ok"-Box doesn' t close, and there is no message that the Beo5 and the iMAC are connected.

Am I doing it right? Or does the template  for the macbook doesn´t work on the iMAC?

Greetings form Germany, Michael

 

The Beo5 doesn't support press on two buttons.

I guess you need to ask Keith to decode this special key combination and include it as a separet key on the Beo5 template?

That´s what I thought, too. But how do the people do that when they control their macbook with the

template provided by Keith? The setup (synchronization) on the mac (iMAC or macbook) must be the same, isn´t it?
