Expose is not working on my new MBP.:confused:

I also repaired permissions, which didn't help. I've also tried closing out of all extra programs, yet it still won't work.

Thanks for any help!

The F9 key is trying to adjust your keyboard backlighting. You need to either use the fn key in conjunction with F9 in order to activate Exposé or go into System Preferences --> Keyboard & Mouse --> Keyboard and tick the checkbox to use the function keys to control software features.
