Try restarting your N900. I used the same Apple Remote for testing that I got with my 2006 MacBook, and AFAIK there are no differences in the IR codes (there are two hardware variants, the "white" one and the newer aluminium-style one).

Also, make sure that the IR port isn't deactivated or "paired" in Mac OS X. If you have Linux installed on your Mac Mini, I expect you to know your way around (lirc, etc..)

Thank you. It's working fine after rebooting the N900.

The N900's IR port must point directly to the Mac and the distance must be less than 2m.

It would be great to have this as a fullscreen app with bigger buttons.
