Does this keyboard have keys that allow you to adjust the brightness of the screen, as the Apple keyboard does? Thank you!

It doesn't have dedicated keys like the volume, optical tray and monitor on/off buttons located at the top, but if you find that f1/f2 don't adjust the brightness, then you can edit the options for the keyboard in system preferences. There is a checkmark there to use the function keys. The version of OS X also matters as I use OS X Mavericks, and don't have that particular checkmark option.

Hi Jessica, I don't believe so, but I'm no expert on Apple. Hope this helps. KEN

Good morning Jessica, short answer is no. Long answer is sort of.... When you have an external keyboard hooked up to your Mac then the F14 & F15 keys control the screen brightness. I hope this helps.T

No it does not have the brightness keys, or several others on the Apple keyboard. It does have volume control though

if you mean the extra keypad on right side of keyboard? no it does not. has the numbers on top of the keys (letters). however, it is a backlit keyboard which is really nice. its very similar design to that of an apple macbook pro if you're familiar. if have any other question let me know. thanks

No, the keyboard is not lighted. I've never had the need for it. The screen has a variable brightness that illuminates the keyboard well enough with low ambient light.

The keys do light up on the Profolio+...Zagg also makes a key board without the lighted keys. I think that is where the discrepancies in these response are coming from. There are three levels of brightness, and you can change the color of the lighting, by holding the "light" key and pressing the "right arrow" key. some of the backlighting on the keyboard does take away from the actual lighting of the letters. Best when you are looking more down on the keyboard.

No, it has a little pop out light at the top of the display to light the keyboard, the light is insufficient. This computer is a powerful tough machine with lots of top end features but it lacks a backlight keyboard. I highly recommend this computer what it lacks in style is more than made up in power and functionability.

I believe this model does have the backlit keyboard. But it only "lights up" when you actually touch the keys. If you are using touchscreen, the keyboard does not stay lit. Not sure why your touchscreen doesn't work.....

Do you mean the keyboard light! If you mean that you can turn it on/off with the a certain key.

No-the keyboard does NOT light up. I don't think I ever have had one that did.

Yes. There is a button on the keyboard where you can toggle the backlighting off and on.

Hi, no....it doesn't have backlit keys, but I would still recommend it over most any other keyboard (unless you spend the majority of your time in the dark)

I bought the keyboard described as Ivation Letter Illuminated Large Print Full Size Multimedia Computer Keyboard - Gentle, Crisp & Clear Blue LED Lights Illuminate Each Key with Adjustable Brightness As it says it is adjustable for brightness. It is not adjustable for color. There is a button where you can cycle from full brightness, less bright, less bright and off. I really like the letters in a blue LED coloring. The light appears to shine through a stencil like cut out in each black key. So I don't think I'll wear the letters off the keys as I did with my last few regular keyboards.

Yes, this model has a backlit keyboard that you can use a key in the "F-Key" row to adjust the brightness. There are two buttons F5 and F6 that will lower or increase the keyboard brightness.This specific model has tech specs here: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP653

Hi, I don't know what version it is, I think it may be the cyborg version and yes the keys do light up and yes you can choose the colour

The keyboard is not backlit. I touch type and know where the keys are but on occasion when my husband uses it he just tips the screen down a little and the light of the screen is sufficient to see the keys.
