Answer 1

an infrared port is usually on the side or back of a laptop computer. It usually looks like a black shiny square that does not stick out or look like anything would plug into it.

Infrared is simply the type of technology that a remote control uses. If you look at the top of a remote you will see something similar a lot of times.

Answer 2

It's very unlikely a desktop computer has built-in infrared. Look for a shiny black plastic rectangular lens on either side or the back of your laptop. If you have an IR device (cell phone?), place its IR lens 4-6 inches away and transmit - Windows makes a very distinct sound when they find each other. Good Luck!

Answer 3

The IR port will be in the back of your computer(wether laptop or desktop). This is to transfer files and data without a direct cable(wire )connection. These are seldom used due to the slow speed of data transfer,(say laptop to laptop). It it kind of a dark translucent window similar to your remote reciever on your VCR/DVD or TV front pane. I hope this helps you out!!

Answer 4

It's the black-tinted lens or area somewhere located inside the computer.
