How do I get my mac screen back to normal from negative?

I turned my back for a second and the next thing I see is my 19 month old with mouse in hand and my screen is in negative display. How do I get it back to normal?

The keyboard command to make the switch is Command-Option-Control-8
You can disable that keyboard command by going to System Preferences > Keyboard, click the Keyboard Shortcuts button near the top. Select Universal Access in the pane on the left, then uncheck the item "Reverse balck and white" in the pane on the right.

    Hello, what OSX version?
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

  • I've overwritten my Mac OS with Windows Vista, how can I get my Mac OS back

    I Was downloading a Windows Vista OS on my Mac and I accidentally deleted the Mac OS. How can I get my Mac OS back? Can I use the CD's accompanied with my MAC
    when I put the DVD to Install the MAC system from vista...It doesnt give an option for ordinary installtion but it gives me an option for remote installtion (which it needs an network or internet connection or something like that...) what should i do ??
    :(:(

    You need to repartition the drive. While booted from the DVD, select Utilities > Disk Utility from the menu bar. In Disk Utility, select the boot drive from the list on the left. It will have a long name starting with the capacity in GB. Click on the Partition tab. Choose "1 Partition" as the volume scheme. Click on the Options button near the bottom of the window, then click on the button labeled "GUID Partition Table." Finally, click Apply. When the partition finishes, you can quit Disk Utility and go back to the Installer. You should now see your internal drive as available for installation.

  • How do I get the little screen back, that tells me how much ink I have left in my print cartridges?

    How do I get the little screen back, that tells me how much ink I have left in my print cartridges? It used to show up whenever I would print something, now it doesn't and I have no idea how much ink is left in the cartridges.  I have a HP Photosmart C4180 All in One Printer. I recently purchased new computer, a HP Pavilion P7-1254 AMD Vision, which runs Windows 7. I just want to know how to get the screen back that tells me how much ink I have left. Thanks.

    Hi there pyesangel,
    Open the Printer Toolbox . There are two ways to do this:
    Open HP Solution Center , select the Settings menu, then the Print Settings submenu, and finally the Printer Toolbox .
    Open Printers and Faxes in the Windows Control Panel , then right-click your printer icon and choose Properties . Click Printing Preferences . Click the Features tab, then click the Printer Services button.
    The Printer Toolbox opens. Click the Estimated Ink Level tab. A cartridge may be running out of ink even if the graphic shows ink remaining (see the note at the start of this section). Lines or streaks always appear in printouts when the cartridges begin to run out of ink. Replace print cartridges that are out of ink or low on ink.
    Figure 1: Estimated ink levels
    Give it a shot and let us know if it helps.
    Best of Luck!

  • How can I get my iPad screen back on?

    I cant get my iPad screen to turn on. I have tried holding the home and sleep button down and tried 'restoring' the iPad but it still not working and nothing appears on the screen. It is charged.
    I was having trouble before wtih watching a video. When I went to the video app I had a TV show on and when I hit the 'done' button in the upper left corner of the iPad the iPad would freeze up. I could not get to the list of video's on the iPad because I could not get out of the show that was the most recent show I was watching.
    To make it even weirder, iTunes can find the iPad so it must still be on and working (right?). But no matter what I try I can't get the screen to turn on.
    I don't know if this matters, but I took the iPad with me out of the counrty for 5 weeks and I just returned and today is the first time I synched it in 5 weeks (it did sucessfully sync more than once today). It worked fine while I was gone, except I did have one time where the video would freeze the iPad like described above, but it went away after just turning the iPad off and on.
    Any help would be great!

    It may be possible to force the iPad into recovery mode.  See <this article>.
    If that does not work, I suspect your iPad has an internal problem that will require repair.  If it is still in warranty, contact Apple.  If out of warranty, search the web for iPad repair centers.  There may be one in your city.

    I think you've installed some kind of third-party interface "enhancement." Please boot in safe mode and see whether you still have the problem.

  • Sry guys,I accidentally removed my mac appstore.How can I get it back ???I have mac os x 10.6.8 .someone tell me how can I get the mac appstore back????:(

    hi

    Yes, if you download and apply that update, the App Store will be reinstalled on your drive. Much faster though to retrieve it from a backup if you have one.
    As stevejobsfan0123 noted though, if all you did was remove it from the Dock (not sure what you mean by "application list"), then it's still on the drive and all you need to do is put it back on the Dock.
    Open the Applications folder on your hard drive. Is the App Store program in that folder? If so, there's nothing to restore or reinstall. Just drag and drop it anywhere on to the Dock to restore that icon to the Dock and you're done.

  • 01-03-14 How do I get the music screen back with the playlists always visible on the left side. I sware, iTunes is just too awkard.

    Let me add, music is no longer at the top of the playlist column so the extra steps to set up and add to playlists is downright annoying

    I have a lot of folders and as of 01-03-14 they I am unable to see then all so I can just drop easily. And iTunes person who reads this pass the word not to discount desktops. Given personal security issues of new the future might abode interest in personal privacy not being a cloud thing. After some people's butts are burned and publically so the music experience just might revert to scrutiny of privacy.

  • TS1967 My iTunes library no longer has all of my music or playlists. When I click "On this iPod" it shows everything, but it's greyed out. How can I get my iTunes library back to normal?

    I am not sure why, but everything in my library is gone. I no longer see my songs, or my playlist.
    When I click on "on ipod" in my itunes, it shows everything how it should be, but it's grey so I can't click on anything. Is there a way to transfer all of that to my itunes again? Or is there a setting for this? I am so confused, I have no idea how/when this even happened!

    Hello MeggiePie86,

  • How do i get the black screen to go back on when im on a call to stop me cutting them on? x

    I'm not sure what you are referring about.
    Do you mean the orange Firefox menu button?
    In current Firefox releases (29 and later) the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible whether the Menu Bar is visible or hidden.
    You can no longer hide the Navigation Toolbar.
    *There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.
    *You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at near the top of the drop-down list.
    *If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu as well as the tooltip of the star changes to "Edit This Bookmark".
    *You can toggle the title bar on/off via the "Title Bar" button at the bottom left in the Customize palette window.
    You can still have the Menu Bar visible via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to have menus like the File menu with Print (Ctrl+P) and Print Preview and the Bookmarks and History and Tools menus.
