[QUOTE="Brooklynguy, post: 1319349, member: 218684"] chscag - I just shut down the iMac and unplugged it, had some dinner, and replugged and powered it up again. Made sure the dim option was checked,made sure the brightness was halfway, and turned out the lamp. No go, nil, zip. Does this function use the built in camera for checking the ambience around the computer? I also tried, with the lamp on, covering up the camera with my hand and again, no dice. Is the PRAM reset as drastic as I keep feeling it is? I know how to do it, but have this hesitation. Right now, I am looking at the internet to figure how to check the iMac's battery. [/QUOTE]
