Keyboard Backlight

[Joe_W]

ok so i just got my computer back from bestbuy, they replaced the hard drive so i need to customize my mac again.

the only issue i am having is with the keyboard back lights; they wont go on. I read apples help diy thing and followed the 2 or 3 directions they gave me and still no luck.

i know this problem is amazingly simple but i used a PC for the last 15 years so i'm overlooking something, hope you guys can point it out to me

Its under system preferences/keyboard and mouse. Check illuminate keyboard in low light conditions or something to that effect.

Yeah when i still had my 15" Powerbook it had to be enabled, so you'd want to check there first, like djack said.
