You are probably working on a MacBook. That means that pressing the  
key with F2 on it doesn't invoke the F2 key, but the function that is  
painted in blueish. If you want to press F2 you actually need to press  
Fn+F2, and for Shift+F2 it's Shift+Fn+F2. Somebody on this list hinted  
that there is a system setting that allows you to change this behavior  
(so you'd need to press Fn+F2 to change brightness).
