Is it your keyboard? I have a couple keyboards (e.g. Microsoft Keyboards) that 
toggle the functionality of the Function keys. If I don't have the "Function 
Lock" key set correctly, then that functionality will not work. Just press the 
appropriate key if that is the case and it should work. (Took me a while the 
first time to figure that one out too. A little annoying when it gets pressed 
accidentally.)

Hello,

Thanks for help
