The keyboard lights went off... for good (N900)

Hi.
All of a sudden, my keyboard lights on the N900 stoped working, also my charge light(orange light) stoped working although in the setting I set it up to show up when charging.
Any Idea for either of them ?
Thank you.

The method to seek warranty varies by location and other factors...so there is no way to tell you exactly what your warranty method is. Instead, you need to review your original purchase contract for the device...in that contract, your warranty terms and methods will be documented, and that is what you must follow. Since I cannot see your original device purchase contract, I cannot know what it says...only you can see your contract, and therefore know what it says. If you are unsure, then talk to the seller (to you) of the device and ask them what your warranty terms and methods are.

  • I've just found the keyboard shortcut in Garageband for 'copy region' had changed from cmdC to ctrlC. I went to Preferences and clicked Restore Defaults for shortcuts. Now its altC . How can I get it back to the original commands.

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • To switch off the monitor and the keyboard lights?

    Hello,
    Is it possible to switch off the monitor and the keyboard lights of a MacBook Air while I'm using it at home with an external monitor and keyboard?
    Many thanks in advance!

    You can turn off the keyboard lights by unchecking System Preferences > Keyboard > keyboard tab > Automatically illuminate keyboard in low light.   Then use F5 to lower the keyboard to off.
    The Monitor can't be switched off but can be reduced to almost off using the F1 key.

  • My MBA suddenly shut off and after charging, nothing works except the keyboard lights

    My MBA suddenly shut off and after charging, nothing works except the keyboard lights.   I charged it and it's been hours and no sound, fan, or power chime happens.  It also says it's fully charged. 

    same or similar have to keep trying to reboot- only happens after charging overnight.

  • I had an abrupt powerfailure on my MAcbook. Power went of, the adapter light went of and since than nothing. Can't power up. I suspect a fasilure of the power supply unit. Some advice is welcome

    Working hsppy on my macbook suddenly all power fell away. The adapter light went of and since than i have not been able to restart my macbook. I suspect a failure in the powersupply. Heard a little sound like blowing a fuse. Any suggestions?

    I suggest you make an appointment at the genius bar at an Apple store and take your Macbook in for a comprehensive diagnosis. This service is free. If repairs are needed you will be given an estimate.

  • T400: How Turn On the Keyboard Light?

    On a T400 (I recently acquired),  how do I turn on the keyboard light or the keyboard backlight?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The ThinkLight toggles on/of with keypress of Fn+PgUp - the one with a light bulb symbol on it at the top right hand corner of the keyboard.

  • Macbook pro screen and keyboard light turns off

    Hello everyone,
    I have an issue with my macbook pro, if im sitting at a table and i glide my laptop slightly my screen and keyboard light goes off and i cant see anything.
    I have to turn it left or right to try and get it back on.....same thing if i close my computer and reopen it again it wont wake up from sleep mode.
    anyone else having a similer issue? is this software related?

    That seems like a loose or failing cable.
    You could try a SMC reset:  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964  to elimate the controller.
    Genius reservation http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    check warranty https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    You could try running the Apple HArdware Test, not always definitive however.  If it shows an error code report back.

  • Just got NEW Apple TV, The status light went out during final part of setup and it no longer works

    Just got NEW Apple TV, The status light went out during final part of setup and it no longer works.  Any ideas?

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.

  • What can I do if MacBook Pro won't turn on but the keyboard lights up ?

    Hi, my MacBook won't start but the keyboard lights up, if anybody has any ideas what I can do to get it to turn on, I'd be forever grateful,

    Try ooting into your Mavericks Recovery partition - by holding down the command and R keys shilst booting.
    Once at the Recovery screen, open Disk Utility, slect your hard drive icon on the left of the screen (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you'e renamed it) and click on the "Verify" button. If you get green text telling you that everything seems to be O.K., just reboot. If you get red text telling you that the drive needs to be repaired, click on the "Repair" button. If repair is successful, you should be able to bott normally.
    Call back with results.
