OS X Lion: Install Front Row

The Media Center Front Row is not installed natively on OSX Lion (10.7). With these instructions, however, you can still enjoy the small Apple entertainer.

Install Front Row on OS X Lion

Download the installation file and copy the following files into the specified directories:

• / System / Library / CoreServices / Front Row.app
• /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/BackRow.framework
• /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/iPhotoAccess.framework
• /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.RemoteUI.plist
• / Applications / Front Row.app

Then restart your Mac. You can then access Front Row as usual.
