The Apple IR Receiver is a hardware component used in some Apple computers, particularly MacBooks and iMacs, to receive signals from an infrared (IR) remote control. This allows you to control your computer remotely, usually for tasks like media playback, volume control, or launching specific apps, typically with the Apple Remote.
On Windows, the Apple IR Receiver may need specific drivers to function properly, especially if you're running Windows on a Mac via Boot Camp or on a Mac using software like Parallels. Here's a breakdown of what it is and how to install the necessary drivers for it:
