[QUOTE="chrischerokee, post: 1225890, member: 196220"] As of today, whenever I try to adjust the brightness for the keyboard lighting I get a prohibited symbol, which prevents me from turning the light up or down. I never had this problem til right now. My back light does work, as I have done the camera trick to make it turn on. Although, as soon as I remove my hand the light turns right back off. However, this is not the issue I am addressing. I was able to adjust the brightness level on the keyboard before regardless if I was in a dark room, or directly in sun light. I even did the SMC reset and was surprised to find out that it did fix my battery, but not the back light issue. I know this is a hot topic that has been talked about over the Mac community, and all of the searching I have done has not shown any kind of answer. My computer specs are as follows: MacBook Pro 13' February 2011 model i5 processor 2.4 ghz [/QUOTE]
