I've tried everything to get my keyboard backlight to work, but it won't!

Hi guys,
I know this subject has come up before, and I've tried all the suggestions given (ie re-booting, pulling the battery etc). When I pull the battery or re-boot, the backlight will work, but only for a few seconds and then dims again. Every now and again it will come on randomly, but none of the solutions I've found so far have worked for my Curve 9300.
Where do I go from here?? Help would be much appreciated!

I was trying to download TinyUmbrella because some people have said it basically kicks phones out of recovery mode, and I did try that but it hadn't worked, it kept loosing connection with the phone even though it was connected.
I took the phone to the O2 shop and they did something to restore it, so it's working fine finally thanks for replying!

Did you try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple then let go? Did you try to restore as new in iTunes on your computer?

Problem with Macbook Pro early 2011, webcam not working in any apps and windows 7 or 8 on bootcamp, keyboard backlight not working?

Hi Guys
I recently bought a second hand early 2011 Macbook Pro 15 inch and are having 2 problems. The first is that none of the apps detects my webcam at all, the second is, i have Windows 8 installed on bootcamp but are unable to get the keyboard backlight to work in 7 or 8. The backlight works perfect in os x 10.8.5 though. I need a little bit of help guys.....

Go to Apple Menu / About This Mac. Click on More Info ... next on System Report. In the left hand column, under Hardware, select USB. The right side will show the USB Device Tree. Look through that and check for "Built-in iSight". That is your camera. If it is not listed the camera is not working.
For backlighting, try this: go to System Preferences / Keyboard. Uncheck "Adjust keyboard lighting in low light".

Keyboard Backlight not working anymore.....please help.

After installing Boot Camp 2.1, I can't get the keyboard backlight to work anymore. I am in the darkest of dark rooms. Pressing F8 just shows an attempt to turn it on but it has a circle with a line through it.
I am running Windows Vista 32-bit SP1.
Are there drivers I can install manually?
Thanks.

Here is something funny. I rebooted with the room completely dark. When Windows came back, the keyboard was backlit. But, when I turned the lights on, the keyboard stayed backlit. And, even better (or worse), when I rebooted again, the keyboard just stayed backlit even to the point where I was choosing between booting into OS X or Windows. That is crazy! I don't know what is going on anymore.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

I have tried everything to get my iPhone 4S to ring out loud. It will only vibrate.

I have tried everything to get my iPhone to ring aloud. It will vibrate when someone calls but it will not ring at all. Please help me!! Thanks

You have gone to Settings > Sounds and the volume is set at a high level, you have selected a Ringtone for the sound, and it still does not ring? Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears.
If that does not help, visit an Apple store genius bar and have the iPhone tested to see if there is a hardware failure.

Try this, Plug your iPhone back into your computer make sure you exit iTunes, Try going into your device manager and see if your iPhone shows up, if you see it the right click on it and select uninstall. Then restart your computer and watch the system install your iPhone drivers again.

i bought an Ipad3 from an estate sale for 20 bucks previous owner passed away. i thought i had come upon the deal of a lifetime i felt as though things were looking up but ive tried everything to get passed the icloud activation, is there a chance this is still the find of the year for me or did i waste 20 dollars and fail again?

You can also use this website to check to see if a device has been erased or if it is still locked. This will not work with using a mobile browser on an iOS device. If you have a browser that can identify as a desktop version, it will work. If not, check it on a computer web browser.

Safari has the ability to identify as a desktop browser, but it's a little bit of a pain to get it to work with this website. You tap in the url filed, then pull down on the favorites window that pops up to reveal "Request Desktop Site".

This has nothing to do with iPhoto. When I have this type of problem I call tech support for my email service. They probably are the only source of the correct settings

Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.

My iPod says to connect to iTunes, and then it crashes, error 3014, I've tried everything it says that might solve the error but nothing,

Not knowing what everything is:
Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" - Apple Support
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

E71: Any way to get the keyboard backlight to alwa...

I have a multi-lingual keyboard with the English letters printed in a blue paint that is almost impossible to see without the backlighting. So, my question is: is there a way to get the keyboard backlighting to always turn on with any press of a button?
Thanks,

Yes, when you delete an email, click on settings then click on the Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then make sure "Ask Before Deleting" is on. Not for sending .

Getting keyboard backlight to work with vista

when i boot into vista, i don't have usability of the alternate functions of the F keys, or the dvd eject, with the exception of num lock. is there a way to use these functions?

first try installing the new drivers from the Mac Support website, or try to reinstall the drivers on your original Mac OS X install disc 1 CD.
If that doesn't work, Dmitri has developed a beta 3.0 software that enables the keyboard backlight to work, and you would also be able to adjust the sensitivity too, which i thought was definitely a great feature:

Good luck.
