Display font is huge, how do i resize back to normal?!

the font on my screen is huge! i already tried "system preferences, universal access, zoom off" and it hasn't changed back, and the zoom IS off.
does anyone know how i can change it back to normal??
thanks!
P.S

Hey, ive been on mac since the 8 systems i think, and i remember there being an option on font size, can you tell me if its your folders and icons that have the large text, everything you see, or just your internet browser? Also, i'm assuming you have a macbook pro, and depending on the size of the screen, (im guessing 15.4), your resolution should be set to 1440 x 900, that is the standard resolution that comes on your computer. again, assuming that its a 15.4 inch macbook pro, but either way 700x480 is very small for the screen size. And i just tried setting my resolution to what yours is, and it does make it look like everything is zoomed in. So try setting your resolution to 1440 x 900, and if that doesnt work get back to here, and ill tell you what to do if its just the fonts.

    Please don't post the same question mutliple times!  I have deleted your duplicate post.
    Have you tried a System Restore to a time before the change occurred?

  • When I scrolled text became very small and I do not know how to get it back to normal

    I don't know what happened. I was moving my mouse over the screen and the text kept shrinking, until it's so small you can barely read it. I don't know how to get it back to normal size.

    Holding the Ctrl key while scrolling increases or decreases the zoom level. You can reset the zoom by pressing Ctrl+0 (zero). [[how-do-i-use-zoom|More on Zooming here.]]

  • My email screen got really large font and I cannot figure out how to get it back to normal. Has to be a Firefox thing because when I open it in Explorer it is normal size.

    While typing on my email screen (Comcast), it just started magnifying and is now quite large font. I cannot figure out how to get it back to the normal size.

    Hi,
    Please try pressing '''Ctrl''' + '''0''' (zero). This resets the zoom. Alternatively, '''View '''(Alt + '''V''') > '''Zoom''' > '''Reset'''.

  • Text in forms and some other websites show up in a foreign language, I think it is cantonese. How do i revert back to normal?

    Form data shows up in a foreign language and im not quite sure how to change it back.

    This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
    Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
    You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
    Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.
    See also [/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?forumId=1&comments_parentId=566006]
    Use this test to see if the Helvetica font is causing it (Copy & Paste the code in the location bar and press Enter):
    <pre><nowiki>data:text/html,
    Helvetica<br><font face="Helvetica" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font><br>
    Helvetica Neue<br><font face="Helvetica Neue" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font></nowiki></pre>

  • My apps are huge and will not go back to normal size

    I Have an iPad air iOS 8 and apps enlarged as when you hold your finger on the page too long.  How can I get it to go back to normal siz?

    Aloha SergZak. Have you tried the new show controller feature in Zoom ? You get a onscreen button like assistive touch. Tap the button you get a menu with new zoom choices. My favorites is the magnifying glass instead of full screen zoom. Stay well. Bob.

  • How do I get back to normal mode from safe mode and enable add ons again?

    I switched to safe mode to disable a few add-ons, but now I want to go back to normal mode. How do I do that?

    Firefox will open normally as long as you do not click the Safe mode link in the Start menu.
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    >In Firefox 4 Safe mode also disables plugins (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and hardware acceleration (Tools > Options > Advanced > General)
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
