Adjust brightness on Desktop HP x20LED

Cannot change brightness setting on monitor, HP x20LED,
On pressing the menu button on front, a small window appears which shows a brightness slider but cant get into the window with cursor to adjust it. There are also manual + and – buttons on front, but these merely move up and down the items in the window. This window cannot be screenshot otherwise I would have sent you a picture.
There is also an AUTO button, but don’t want to experiment with this.

IMac 24" and adjusting brightness.

Hello. I have this fancy (and great) iMac 24". Only annoying thing is that when I try to adjust brightness, it just does not "adjust" brightness. Difference between "none" and "full" brightness is close to nothing. I have so far zap Prams, deleted prefs, turn green and shouted that I am Hulk - any ideas?
I know that there is Shade and other small apps to do this. But Brightness-control should efeect as...well... a brightness control.
Sooooo...any ideas how to get a working brightness control by keyboard?

Yeah, I have. And system preference panel.
When I press F1 or F2 to adjust brightness I have this normal response in display (picture). I dont know whats the right word for it but I mean the white brightness slash hovering on my iMacs desktop. You know, when You press volume controls there is a picture of speaker and when you press brightness there is a picture of rising sun.
Anyways, I get that. BUT THERE IS NO VISIBLE CHANGE IN BRIGHTNESS BETWEEN HIGHEST AND LOWEST.
Same thing via System preferences. Brightness slider has the same lack of adjustment.
Sooo, any ideas? Where could be the problem?

Windows 8.1 Bootcamp wont Sleep or adjust Brightness

Hey Guys, I installed windows 8.1 via bootcamp onto my 2013 rMBP, 16gig Ram, Upgraded Processor, and I have two issues with it. 1. I cannot adjust my screen brightness, which is manageable but annoying. 2. It wont go to sleep. There isnt an option anywhere to adjust brightness or put it to sleep. The only option are to hibernate, shut down, or do nothing. It seems as though the sleep function just isnt available, nor is the brightness. I feel like thse two things may be connected, but I wasnt sure. I have browsed some threads, but nobody seems to have a find for 8.1 or these problems yet. When I try to sleep my computer (i.e. close the lid) it just shuts down, and I have to hold option to power up back into windows. If anyone has a solution, please do let me know:) Thanks!! Also I'm running mavericks fully updated, the newest bootcamp software and the newest bootcamp drivers, AND windows is fully updated.

I have the same issue. Any luck miller? When I close the lid on my Macbook, i have to power back up and use the OPTION key to get back to Windows 8.1. This issue just started after updating to Mavericks...
My brightness control does work fine.

27" ACD as second monitor -- cannot adjust brightness

I've connected a 27" LED ACD to my 27" iMac as a second monitor, but the keyboard commands for adjusting brightness do not affect the cinema display. I understand a common cause for this is that the USB isn't connected, but mine is and I can verify it is working because I have an external HD connected to the USB port of the ACD, and the iMac recognizes that it is connected.
Also, if I go into Display Preferences then I do see the Brightness slider for the second monitor. This is currently the only way I can adjust the brightness of that monitor.

True, Unless there's a shortcut for that, the only way to adjust the brightness of the second monitor is by using the display preferences . same here with a MBP / 27" display.

Adjusting brightness on external LCD of MacBook

I have a Samsung Syncmaster 2033 connected to my MiniDisplayPort. The buttons on the side of the monitor have stopped working. Is there anyway I can adjust brightness/contrast and/or any of the other configuration settings for the monitor from OS X? Otherwise, is there a third party software out there that will do it?

Adjusting brightness on BOOTCAMP

Hi
All along i was able to adjust the brightness and volume using F1,F2 etc when i was using windows 7 on macbook pro until recently. I was also unable to right click and scroll using the trackpad.
I downloaded input remapper to adjust the brightness and i just dragged it too fast and my whole screen became the dimmest! Which means I can't see a thing while running windows 7 now and what's more i can't adjust it back using the fn key! The mac system is all well, still able to adjust brightness and all. Is there anyway to adjust the brightness of bootcamp(windows 7) through the mac system?
Thanks!

I just found out a solution! Open your mac then look at your battery if you see a little plug cnected to the battery simply unplug it... If you're still a little confused watch a video on youtube. Remember you don't have to unscrew anything else once your mac is open. Hope this helps, don't be scared to do this if you're new to opening macs.

Is there a way to adjust shadows in iMovie 11? WhenI adjust brightness it changes shadows also. If not is there free or low cost software available? My operating system is Lion.

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

Adjusting brightness and colour temperature on WindowXP PC

Hi,
I'm using Windows XP PC. I just bought 27" Cinema Display but I find that i can't adjust brightness and colour temperature in Windows XP......
I'm new user for apple and feel confuse about how to use this cinema display well in Windows XP PC.
Many thanks
Ben

For brightness you need the AppleControlPanel.exe file from the Boot Camp package to be able to adjust the brightness - don't install the whole of Boot Camp as it will cause problems on a non-Apple PC, just get this one file - I can provide it if you can't find it elsewhere.

Auto Adjust Brightness late 2010 is gone

Auto adjust Brightness Button is gone?!?
Can you help me getting it back?
See

The auto brightness button is near the top - the one that starts with "Optimal".
In English, that button says "Resolution - best for built-in display".
I see what you mean, though, as resolution and brightness are really different things.
Anyway, glad your problem is solved.

Auto adjust brightness ... can it be reversed?

I cant remember if i had this problem with Snow Leopard. Not sure if this is a Lion issue or my new MBA either.
The auto adjust brightness seems to adjust the screen brightness to low in bright light and high in low light.
I would like it reversed as in the dark, i dont need a bright screen and in the day, i need the screen to be brighter.
Any body noticed this same adjustment on their Lion MBA?
If so, does any one know how to reverse it?
Thanks

SAP has a program to reverse depreciation but it is somewhat complex and not available on OSS. I'm also not sure if it is limited to (or can be ported if it is) to the older depreciation program RABUCH which would limit it to those customers that currently post using RAPOST2000.
But barring access to the program, it's not possible to reverse it. You would have to proceed as Jagdish describes... feed the GL data that is -1 of the data that was posted. I wouldn't do it, personally.

Can not adjust brightness and minimize and maximize the screen with Fn keys

I have bought a HP 15-D006TU laptop 1 week back. f2 and f3 for adjusting brightness and f4 to minimize and maximize the screen are not working. I am also trying to install the Hotkey driver which is mostly suggested here. but the version available is not supported. Can anyone help me out in this case?

Hi NIdisha,
Thank you for your post, I will do my best to assist you.
I understand that you are experiencing an issue with the brightness and the fn keys. When I looked up the specifications, I see it came with FreeDos. I am providing you links, to the software and driver page for your computer,HP 15-d006tu Notebook PC Drivers and Frequently Asked Questions About FreeDOS (FAQs). Please note the compatible keyboard driver. I would suggest you uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the keyboard. I am also providing you a document on Notebook Keyboard Troubleshooting (Windows 8), that may assist you. If you would like furhter assistance, please let me know if you are still running FreeDos, or have changed the operating system.
I hope this has helped.

How do I turn off "Automatically adjust brightness" on Mountain Lion using AppleScript

I'm new to Mac, Applescript and Automator and I'm trying to make a automation for when I perform on stage and found a script to set the brightness all the way up but can't find a script to disable "Automatically adjust brightness". Any help would be appreicated.

You could even both “set the brightness all the way up” and “disable Automatically adjust brightness” with just one and the same script:
tell application "System Preferences"
    -- launch
    -- activate
    set current pane to pane id "com.apple.preference.displays"
    reveal anchor "displaysDisplayTab" of current pane
    tell application "System Events"
        tell process "System Preferences"
            tell group 1 of tab group 1 of window 1
                set value of slider 1 to 1.0 -- max
                tell checkbox 1
                    if value is 1 then click
                end tell
            end tell
        end tell
    end tell
    quit -- optional
end tell

Adjust brightness (too high)

Hello there!
I am big fan of Nokia since 2008, all the family uses it's smartphones (n82 > n78 > n8) and I haven't any troubles with the screen till last update of nokia n8 (belle), the brightness just to high to me. For example, on android 7 inch tablet with IPS display I can adjust brightness to the lowest point (it's about 4-7 kd/m2) so it would be look like backlight off at all, great for me.
Now for the question: as I presume, on Nokia lumia 920 the lowest point of screen brightness is "low" (which is about 60 kd/m2), is there any options to make it lower? Like 14 kd/m2? Or it's just impossible for Nokia's amoled screens?
