Backlight keyboard manual setting?

How can I manual set the back light?
It seems to have a mind of its own.
I set it about half way. I turned off the "illuminate in low light" setting in prefs.
But the keyboard keeps re-setting itself. It goes from full on to full off.

    Hum, I just tried walking though the checkout process and it seemed to work. If you are still having issues I would go ahead and contact HP Support. They will be able to order the part for you. You can contact the parts store at: 1-800-227-8164

  • Can't turn off backlight keyboard in XP How long this problem will live?

    I'm using MBP 15" 2.66Ghz (late 2008 model)
    My Windows XP SP3 with Bootcamp 3.0 most of the things work well except backlight keyboard, I tried to press F5 to reduce backlight to minimun but backlight still there so annoying me even more every times I boot into Windows XP backlight will reset itself to maximum amount of light. ==" Anyone got an ideal how to solve or just waiting for Apple engineer to fix it but when I've seen this problem long long time ago.... Srry for my bad english.

    Finally figured it out. In case anyone else has the same problem of your computer ignoring changes in the Face Tracking Utility screen, try this:
    Go to Webcam Center. Click on "Capture" then the "Source" tab, one of two discrete grey tabs just above the video screen.
    Under "Extended Settings" you have the options for face tracking: off, continuous or smart. Click it and your computer should actually hold onto this setting until you change it again!
    Good luck.

  • T440P Backlight Keyboard...

    Hi,I got T440P model: 20AN0069USWithout backlight keyboard,can it be replacled to backlight keyboard?where to order?need with hebrew letters also...Thanks, Gil.

    Hello and welcome,
    The keyboard is listed as an optional service part so you should be able to replace it if you're handy.  The Hardware Maintenance Manual includes instructions.
    The keyboard FRU numbers are included in the FRU list.  I beleive the one you're looking for is the 04X0115 but please double-check that.
    It looks like it can be ordered here https://www-304.ibm.com/shop/europe/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/default/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=-376&storeId=376&langId=375&categoryId=3063814 .  The Google may have other sources.
    All that said, I've never done an unlit to lit keyboard swap.  I believe that it is only necessary to do the swap without other mods, but haven't actually tried it.

  • Activate Keyboard shortcut set

    Hi,
    is there a way to activate a keyboard shortcut set on startup of InDesign. Maybe with a startup script.
    Currently the user has to activate the shortcut set manually.
    Thanks
    Stefan

    Yes, it does remember the shortcut keyset. We want to deploy a new shortcut set for all our InDesign users by copying the shortcut set into the users workspace.
    But the user still has to activate it himself. We are looking for a workaround for that.
    Thanks Stefan

  • Backlight keyboard for 20 seconds

    Hi, I am just curious about if there is any way to set macbook backlight keyboard for 20 second, because in system pref. there is only 10 and 30 seconds option. But for me is 10 seconds is not enough and 30 too much. Mayby some terminal trick? Thanks for your help

    How to know if you have backlit keyboard on W540?
    I'm certain I selected it in the configurator, although if the IT guy followed through and also selected it in the order is another question. But nothing happens when I hit Fn+Spacebar. Is there a way to know for sure?
    CPU-Z says my model is 20BH001XUS, if that tells anything.

  • MacBook Pro 13" Early 2011 Backlight Keyboard Not Working?! Software Problem...

    So my "MacBook Pro 13" Early 2011" backlight keyboard hasn't been working. I have tried LabTick today, doesn't fix anything. Even in high or low lighting situations (dispite the Adjust keyboard brightness in low light being off) doesn't like to go on. It doesn't give me a circle with a cross like it does with that box checked in day light. It shows on the screen the
    16 dots fully light after hitting F6 fully, just it doesn't light up. I one time had to reset my Mac OS at the Apple Store, it fixed the problem, but when I restored with a time machine backup, it went back to this software problem. How can I fix this?! What is wrong with my OS? Mountain Lion? How can I fix this?!

    If it does not detect the display automatically, try going to system preferences>displays, click detect displays.

    Try Apple/Command + space.
    For the future, go to system prefs/accounts/login items and check the box for Show Input Menu on Login Screen.

  • When creating a rectangle shap, how to manually set dimensions

    I am creating a rectangular shape with the tool (U).
    How can I manually set the dimensions (height and width).
    I know I can see the dimensions with the info button in the right side bar, bug I want to edit those values.
    Is this possible?

    You can set the dimensions before using the rectangle tool in the
    tool options bar (fixed size).
    Or you can change the dimensions after, by using the move tool or Edit<Free Transform Path
    and entering the dimensions in pixels (px) in the width and height boxes.

  • How to restrict manual setting of User Status?

    Hi,
    I have created an User Profile where a particular User Status is "set" based on the Business Transaction "Release".
    However, we are also allowed to set this User Status manually without carrying out the Business Transaction "Release".
    How do I restrict manual setting of those User Statuses that are "set" based on a Business Transaction?
    Raj

    Pete,
    I did read that post. But it is about providing authorisation to set a Status for an User.
    The case I am referring is, an User Status is auto set by a Bus. Trans Release. But I am also permitted to set the status transition manually. This way, Users tend to skip Releasing the Service Order. This is affecting upstream processes.
    Is there a way where we can restrict manual setting of User Statuses that have to be normally auto set by Bus. Transactions?

  • If I have manually set "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for songs, and my hard drive is backed up in Time Machine, when files/songs are transferred on new hard drive, will my "Start Time" "Stop Time" options be there?

    My Macbook Pro will be going in for reimaging and my hard drive will be wiped, I want to know if all my iTunes preferences will be copied if I have backed them up on Time Machine. Specifically, if I have set certain "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for my songs, and I copy my iTunes library, will these "Start Time" and "Stop Time" options remain or will I have to manually set them one by one once again? I need a reply ASAP! Thanks so much!

    As far as I'm aware the start & stop times are stored in the library database, not the media files. If you backup/restore/transfer the whole library then the settings are included. If you create a complete copy of your iTunes folder on another drive you can connect to that copy by holding down option/alt as you start iTunes so you can check that everything is working properly before you send the Macbook away.

  • Late 2011 MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion 10.8.2) backlight keyboard not functioning properly?

         I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and for some reason, the automatic backlight keyboard will not funtion as it should. When I have the "Adjust keyboard brightness in low light" option enabled in settings, and I turn on the lights, my backlight keyboard stays at full brightness. Then, when I turn off the keyboard, then the lights, the keyboard does not turn on! Correct me if I'm wrong, but I am pretty sure that this was a feature in the MBP lines.

    Try a SMC reset.   Shut down the computer. Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected. On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. Release all the keys and the power button at the same time. Press the power button to turn on the computer.   Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • I have an Airport Express, which flashes amber, but when I go to manual set up, it says there's an error and tells me to close configuration?

    I have an Airport Express, which flashes amber, but when I go to manual set up, it says there's an error and tells me to close configuration? Once I complete that, the same thing occurs, and there's another error message?

    Is this a new AirPort Express, or one that you have had for some time that has now developed problems?
    What function do you want the Express to perform on your network?

  • MS Exch Acc not syncing - manually setting it in iPhone or through iTune

    Hi, I have confugured the MS Outlook in my personal laptop to work with my work email. The new iPhone seem to support MS Exchange account. Although I could setup my yahoo and gmail account pretty fast, I have failed to successfuly setup the MSEx account yet, both by manually setting it up in iphone or by opting to sync mail accounts through iTune which is supposed to copy the account settings details.
    While setting it up manually it 'failed to verify account' whereas in the iTune under the 'Info' Tab for Mail Accounts option, although I tick to 'Sync selected email account from: Outlook', it never actually displays any account name, in the box below. It does show me this for Calendars and my iphone calendar syncs with my work calendar from Outlook on my laptop.
    Those documented tips on the apple website like, if you have enterted the domain name then remove it and see if it syncs and if you don't have it entered and enter the domain name and 'see' if it syncs' hasn't helped. My outlook login does require the domain name so i have entered it in the phone too but after reading this tip i tried after remving it and it still couldn't retrieve emails.
    I found some utility on apple website that is meant for confuguring the acount setups on your PC. 5.17 MB file size i downloaded the version for Windows but after installation I dont see any option in the menu where i could launch an 'application', set email account setting possibly with advanced/customised details which the phone email setup doesn't ask for.
    Has anybody setup their work emails on iphone without any IT help from office? If yes was it as simple as fill the form and emails retrieved? Considering what I have tried so far am I missing step for successful setup or is there any other option left to setup MSEx emails? Please help.
    Thanks and regards,
    Ronak

    I was browsing my account and saw thsi question i had posted long back. A couple of months back while at my attempts to setup my work email i was able to do this successfully. Not with the account details I had used during the Outlook setup for my laptop but with the details used for webmail. My employer also has webmail which one can use to access emailout of office network on the go. i keyed in the address ID and password and it worked. I was like wow and I tried so hard the other way.

  • Illustrator CS6 does not honor Full Keyboard Access setting

    Why does Illustrator CS6 not honor the Mac system setting for Full Keyboard Access? Under System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts, I have Full Keyboard Access set to allow the Tab key to cycle between "Text boxes and lists only". But Illustrator allows the Tab key to focus on all controls, including buttons. Is there a setting somewhere in Illustrator to change this behavior?

    You can try to edit the keyboard file, but you need to find out the code for the Danish keys.
