Display has turned everything "photo-negative"

my daughter was button mashing and somehow turned my display to a photo-negative look. my menu bar is black with orange highlights and all applications are running the same look too. i tried to fix it in system preferences but had no luck. any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!

Press the Option, Command, Control, and 8 keys simultaneously, or turn off White on Black in the Seeing tab of the Universal Access pane of System Preferences.

    My IPhone 3Gs is in showing everything Photo negative manner. How to bring it to normal viewing?

    Go to Settings>General>Accessibility
    Make sure that the White on Black is set to off, and that should set it back to normal.

    Are you sure you are doing it correct?  See page 11 of your iPod's User Guide for more information.

  • My IPad 2 screen has gone into "photo negative" type images for everything. Ideas?

    Can anyone help re. IPad 2 screen,et al going into photo negative view of everything?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • 3000 C200 Monitor issue - Desktop displays inverted colours (like photo negatives)

    Hi,
    My LCD monitor is displaying EVERYTHING in inverted colours (desktop, websites, photos etc.)  It just started doing this earlier today when I moved the laptop from my desk to the couch.  Can someone tell me how I can fix this, or if there is a utility (for Windows XP) that enables my PC to invert colours (for the whole computer, not just for images). 
    I have adjusted display properties and checked High Contrast in Accessibility options.  I have also tried PowerStrip and different magnifiers, and I have checked that my video and adapter drivers are up to date.  I believe that this is a problem with the LCD screen and not with my settings.  If it is a physical problem with the monitor then my warranty has run out so I would appreciate it if you can recommend the correct parts to buy to fix this or possibly a tutorial to show me how to open the monitor and fix it myself.
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the forum, [b]prohyster[/b]
    Try downloading one of so called "LiveCD"-s, for example [url=http://www.hiren.info/pages/bootcd ]hiren's[/url] , or PartedMagic or another program that can use 32-bit colour in non-windows enviroment (Linux is acceptable also as non-windows enviroment ) and check whether the problem persists. If colours are normal, the problem is in drivers or registry tweak, thus haven't hear about such thing ever.
    Another (simpliest) way is to take screenshot and e-mail it to someone that owns a normal-colour-displaying comp. If the screenshot is clear (colours are ok), then problem is in your LCD and you'll have to have a pleasant date with service-centre =)

  • My Mac Book Pro display has turned purple/blue, - why?

    My screen started to flickr and has now turned purply/blue as if something has died..any one know why?

    Your first choice is to go to System Preferences>Displays>Color.  Make sure that your profile set is the appropriate one for the MacBook Pro, which should be "Color LCD".
    I'm going to skip all of the normal suggestions of resetting this and that, because from what I've researched this in the past, and it appears you have an issue with either the graphics chip (low probability) or a worn cable causing one of the color channels to be bad or your LED screen has a problem.
    In other words, it's probably hardware related.

  • The new LR4.1 download has turned my photos a pinkish hue, why

    After instaling LR4.1 my photos turned a pinkish hue, on uninstaling they returned to their original colour.  They were taken with a Canon 600D 18-55mm IS lens. I am a hobbyist photographer and wonder if I can ignore this update without compromising future updates too.  I don't like what it has done to my photos.  The update refers to chromatic aberation correction, which it appears my photos don't need.

    Hi,
    I have exactly same problem. After instaling LR4.1 all of my photos are pink. See attached file. I tried to uninstal and instal LR and nothing happened. Could you please help?

  • My display has turned into 3 equal scrambled columns

    Did my graphics card just bite the dust? I was watching a QuickTime video. The video started distorting, and now the display shows 3 equal columns (the outer columns are the same, the middle column is a different color) with symmetrical scrambled lines.

  • 2005 iBook G4 lcd display has turned streaky fuzzy pink and blue

    Boot up laptop screen looks fine. Goes to sleep, wake it up, screen is now weird. Gone fuzzy, no true colors, looks streaky, pink and blue. I rebooted, no change. I'm plugged in, so it is not a power/battery issue. Since I've had this since 2005 I suspect I have to replace the screen, but heck I don't know. Can an expert help me here? I've got a screen shot to share, how do I upload it?

    O&O,
    I've got a screen shot to share, how do I upload it?
    I think to upload here you have to have a membership. I just upload pics on PhotoBucket:
    http://photobucket.com/
    It would help to see a pic.
    This is from the service manual for the 14" 1.42 GHz mid '05:
    "xScrambled or distorted video
    Check for video on external display.
    • If video is fine on external display, replace LVDS cable.
    • If video is scrambled or distorted on external display, replace LCD panel."
    That last line is a bit extreme AFAIC. I suppose a bad display could cause the GPU to put out distorted video. So if it was me I'd unplug the LDVS cable and then if the external display cleared up then I'd replace the LCD panel.
    The 1.42 also uses the ATI Mobility Radeon 9550 4x AGP I have one of these in a 1.33 12" and it went bad. My normal repair is to swap in a good chip from a PC laptop graphics card. Unfortunately I can't find a cross reference to that chip being used anywhere else but the iBook 1.33 and 1.42.
    after it was sleeping for 3 hours and the screen is bad again
    Have you tried resetting PMU? Does any of this involve moving the screen? That's one of my checks for a bad LVDS.

  • Photo Negative to a Positive

    I have an HP PSC 1315xi; is it possible to use it to turn a photo negative to a positive?

    Hi there @Cleos 
    Welcome to the HP Community,
    You would most likely need a ScanJet model in order to scan negatives.
    I have checked the printers specifications and this printer does not seem to turn negatives into positives.

    I hope that answers your question!

  • My iPad 2 screen has turned a weird colour. The background is black and the letters are white instead of the other way round and colour photos look like negatives. How do I change it back.

    My IPad screen has turned a weird colour, the background is white and the letters white instead of the other way round.  Colour photos look like negatives. How can I turn it back to a white background.

    Dear Steve,
    You are wonderful! You are the best! I'm Stephania and I recently purchased a refurbished ipad2. I've had it for about 3 weeks now and updating & fixing it so my liking. The only thing that I couldn't correct were the photos that looked like negatives. Every photo, even on the internet, on apps, everywhere! I just couldn't figure out how to fix it. I contacted Apple Care and its too difficult to get in touch with them. I had looked through support before but didn't put in the right question. Well, today I got lucky. I did the two things you suggested and turning the "White On Black" off did the trick. I'm so happy! I had a feeling it was something simple and this is not even in the manual!
