Figure 8:
The Apple Remote has only four buttons: a directional ring, the
Select button in the center of that, and the Menu and Play/Pause buttons
under that.
•
Directional ring:
Located at the top of the Apple Remote, this “directional”
ring, has dots to indicate up, down, left, and right. Press a dot to navigate the
menus. Less obviously, you can press the Up or Down dot to reveal additional
options while playing content. I'll cover those throughout the topic.

•
Menu:
The Menu button is a bit of a misnomer, as it doesn't display a menu,
but rather takes you back to the previous screen.
•
Play/Pause:
As you would expect, this button starts and suspends playback.
