My backlight does not work

The backlight of my Video Ipod does not go on, but it works perfectly. What do i do?

I suggest a reset.. PUSH and HOLD the middle button and the menu button at the same time for 10 seconds..
If that does not work you might want to try a restore.

Backlight does not work again...

I have Toshiba Z30-A-12N.
As in wiki is written, the Toshiba acpi and the intel drivers have a backlight driver. Thus, there are two backlight as a vendor. Until today, I used the solution of the wiki with good results. However, after the last upgrade this solution doesn't work. The last upgrade was a little big, with gnome-shell and the kernel, so I don't know what is the reason. I can change the backlight manually with the tee in the /sys/class/backlight/intel but in gnome only tochiba one is changes without any effect.

did u look around on this site (in the forums) for ure specific problem?? if u have, it would be best I think to take it to an Apple store or send it in for repairs...because it sounds like an internal problem, therefore not one u can fix...does that help a bit?

Satellite L300-1bd LCD backlight does not work properly

Hi,
A few days ago, the backlight of my l300 stopped to function properly.
I have tried turning it on a few times, and sometimes it briefly lights up and then goes off again.
Any idea's on what my next move should be?
I called a repairshop, and the guy i spoke to told me they would charge 50 euro's just to open it and that he was afraid he might have te put a new lcd screen in which would cost me another 150 euro's. I cannot afford this, nor do i think it would be a smart move to do a 200 euro repair on this notebook..
now because the backlight went briefly on and then off, i am kind of hopeing the cable that connects the screen to the computer might be broken/not plugged in properly. I found a repair manual which makes me think i can change it myself, but: is there a way i can make sure what the defect is before trying to plug in a new cable? what kind of cable do i need, and where can i get this?
hope you guys can help me out!

Either its just a FL inverter issue or the display fault
The FL inverter controls the display backlight and therefore I think its FL inverter.
This is a small part hidden behind the plastic display frame.
I dont know ho much is it but its not very expensive like display itself.

HT201401 Backlighting is not working how do I fix this?

MY sister got a new phone and she gave me her iphone3. However the backlighting does not work, how can I fix this? Do I need to take the phone to apple?

Try restarting the iPhone by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo. If you are still having problems, then you should take your iPhone to Apple for repair.

Tap to click does not work. Is there no solution?

I have XP SP3 with the latest 2.1.1 update. Tapping doesn't work. Keyboard backlight does not work. Eject does not work. Scrolling is hyper active even with mouse set to 1 click scroll. But worst of all, NO MOUSE CLICK.
If there is a special setting to make, please let me know. I can live with the other problems but not being able to tap is extremely irritating.
Help! Any Apple Certified Techs out there?

For those who care to know, the tap to click pretty much does NOT work at all no matter what version of Windows you have.
I called tech support twice today. The first "expert" told me to try using XP service pack 2. He claimed his tap function worked during his training program.
I said OK and proceeded to erase and reinstall the whole thing. No go.
The second tech reviewed my case number and flat out said, "we don't support windows, I can't help you". I understand that some things are beyond the scope of support but to me, this was an apple boot camp issue. Every salesperson I spoke to said it was no problem. There are problems. Probably to be fixed at a later date, however, it is obviously not a priority.
I do have some good news. I discovered that spyware programs such as Webroot Spy Sweeper seem to make the bootcamp manager crash (you'll see a popup at startup).
But if you just reinstall bootcamp again it will rebuild the drivers and should work.
Also, you can reduce the amount of hyper scrolling across the trackpad by setting the mouse click wheel to 1 (3 by default) in control panel. Be sure to check out the bootcamp panel and enable stuff like the fn keys.
I am now considering Parallels as a solution. If it runs inside OSX then maybe it won't suffer the trackpad issues.
I am staying with SP2 until someone says SP3 is better. Anyone else have any thoughts?

I updated, but now my keyboard backlight will not work. Any suggestions?

I recently updated my MacBook Pro to OSX 10.8.4, but now my keyboard backlight does not work and there is nothing I can find in the Keyboard section of preferences to turn it back on. Anyone else had this problem?

One of these steps should help.
1. Restart.
2. Press F6 key couple of times.
3. System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard
                       Uncheck the box next to "Adjust keyboard brightness in low light"
4. Reset SMC

Portege M800 - Exposed Sensitive Touchkeys does not work

I am owner of the Toshiba Portege M800-105. Everything does its work. After 2 month working on it, my exposed sensitive touchkeys next to the POWER-Button does not work. After I deinstalled the "Vista-Value-Added-Package" everything is working proper. Why? Now my FN-Keys are not working or are diabled. Why?
Before deinstallation the package, the first button next to the power-button had the function to turn off the backlight from the Logo, from the senitive touchkeys an from my touchpad. NOW it turn off the sound!!!! Fairy weired if you aks me. How can I fix my buttons up to factory settings and get FN-Buttons working?
I reinstalled the value added package again, and have the save problem as before: the first two buttons next to the power button does not work!
Unter the Application: Thoshiba Button Support, for the first two buttons there are no Keynames depositd/marked so that I can change there configuration.
FN-Keys works after installation the package, though not the sensitive keys! Please, who can help me?
The Value Added Package has small programs. One of them is the Toshiba Button Support. Whenn I deinstall it everything works. When I install it, nothing works.
Thank you for Help on [email protected]

Hello guys
The whole thing is really strange. I really dont know what happen on your notebooks. The fact is that those buttons are controlled by software. If I am remembering well it called Button support or Button control and it is part of Value Added Package.
VAP contains several different tools and utilities. When you remove VAP it will be removed the application responsible for FN functionality (Flashcards) and this is the reason why the FN doesnt work anymore.
So, theoretically everything should be OK when you install VAP again. I repeat theoretically. Why you still have this problem I dont know and I dont believe nobody can say for sure. Maybe some registry entries are corrupted now? Who knows?
I presume you dont want to use most radical solution and make clean OS installation again but this can definitely help. With clean preinstalled OS (factory settings) everything will work well again.
At the end I must say that I use Satellite U400 (similar to your Portege) almost 6 months now and all buttons work properly. I still use preinstalled Vista version and I didnt made any changes. It works well.

HT2188 iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work.

Hi
My iPad 1 requested activation after being low on power. Activation does not work so I have tried to restore it from iTunes. this progresses but after rebooting, it gets to the activation process for a few minutes and re-boots again - in a loop now. on ios6, not 7. help please?
I also looked at trying to do a manual install of firmware via iTunes but I do not know the version of firmware or how to find it out - so really stuck!
Thanks

I pulled my unit out of the dock - powered up and the display goes blank (if you look carefully you can see the bios boot screen, then black, then you can see the backlight turn off.
I plugged in the USB monitor and boom - I could log in.
Once Logged in I could see that windows still thinks it has some of the monitors from the dock, and the internal display is set to disable.
So the issue is the detection / setup of monitors in/out of the dock.
I've done about all I can do for dubugging, I hope lenovo can pick up from here. if not I'll have to call lenovo support.

Since upgrading to 10.8.3 my key board backlight does not come on until I enter my password

(13" MBP mid 2010). Since upgrading to 10.8.3 my keyboard backlight does not come on until after I enter my password and mac system comes up. Before upgrade the keyboard backlight would come on right after I pushed the On button. It makes it difficult to enter my password in a low light setting because I can not see the keys to type my password in. I have been using the light off of the display to help light the keyboard to see to enter my password. Any know fix for this?

Hey Doug,
Thanks for your post, and welcome to the Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your keyboard backlight is not working upon startup, the following may resolve your issue:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
After performing normal troubleshooting, these symptoms may indicate that an SMC reset may be necessary:
Lights
The keyboard backlight appears to behave incorrectly (on Mac computers that have this feature).
You may also want to reset your computer's PRAM:

Note: Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.

MacBook Pro Backlit Keyboard does not work

Hello all!
I recently bought a used MacBook Pro (late 2008, 2.4 GHz Core2Duo) and the backlight on the keyboard does not work. I have reset the SMC and the PRAM, I have the latest firmware (EMI and SMC) and still no luck. I am hoping this isn't a hardware issue, but what can I do to fix this?

I think there is a sensor on the top left. It looks like a little speaker thing. If you swipe your finger over it, it activates/deactivates it. I read this somewhere online. Works for me most of the time if it's not lighting up and showing the 'no/stop' symbol.
