My cat stepped on my keyboard and now my colors are different and when I look at the screen the lettering is not clear

Help!  My cat stepped on my keyboard and now my colors are almost a light neon color and the font is not clear.  How do I fix this?

Sounds like the display colors got inverted.  If that is the case, you can use the accessibility preferences or use the keyboard shortcut control-option-command-8.  I can't help with fixing your cat.

    Not sure if I'm following you. I have 4 hard drives installed on my Mac Pro. I had a RAID 5 configured and functional for about 5 months. My battery died on the RAID card. I replaced the battery, seated the RAID card back in the slot I removed it from. When I booted to the USB drive to look in the RAID utility, I could see the battery is charged but my volumes are not showing.
    The drives don't show in disk Utility. I built the RAID with the RAID Utility and they did show there. I have a early 2008 Mac Pro, Mavricks OS running Mac Server

    Chris thanks for your reply, if none of the Do Not Disturb settings are switched on - then am I right that this setting will have no effect. I.e. I want my phone to ring at all times, so have turned off all of the do not disturb settings

    I tried everything already. can anyone please help me?

    Try this:
    Restart and hold the option key down. If you see two hard drive icons, select Recovery, and hit Return.
    Next follow these steps:
    Click Disk Utility, and then click Continue.
    In the list at the left, select the item you want to repair. (Be sure to select an item that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
    Click First Aid.
    If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Quit DU and restart.

  • My MacBook Pro froze and when I rebooted it the drive will not mount

    I don't know what to do. The start up organ sounds and the gray wheel spins forever.  So, I found an installation disk but it was for an older OS, snow leopard (currently using OS 7.8 I think).  Anyway, I put it in and booted with it and brought up the utility and tried the "repair disk" thing but it tells me it can't do it.  I am backed up on my time capsule, but have never had to reinstall a whole system.   What should I do?

    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Apple TV quits unexpectedly and when I look at the Mac Mini where the Music is coming from, it says someone else is using the Apple TV.  Any idea how this happens?  All s/w is updated.  Re-booted all h/w.

    The Apple TV will play four or five songs from the Computer, and then stops suddenly.  It's worked fine for months until a couple days ago.  The message says the AirPlay/Apple TV is being used by another person.  When I go down to the tiny icon in the iTunes box (lower right), it only offers Computer as option and no longer shows Apple TV as option.

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.

    My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does not appear in the iTunes bar. what do I do?

    If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
    Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
    An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
    At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
    Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

  • My cat sat on my keyboard and now my desktop display looks like it is in night vision with color. How do I get it back to it's original display?

    My cat sat on my keyboard and changed the display. Now the coloration and brightness looks like it is in night vision with a bit of color. It is similar to one of the photo booth effect options. How do I get it back to normal?

    Hi JoeBeth,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like your colors have become inverted on your display. This is a feature of Universal Access. Please refer to the attached article for information on this feature with instructions to toggle it on and off. 
    Mac OS X displays inverted image colors (white on black, reverse type)
    Have a great day,

    This whole deal reeks. I do not know where you got your product from, but that's not how Adobe Photoshop works.
    Go here first: Contact Customer Care
    That is the official contact.
    Contact Customer Care by chat or Phone.
    If the website you went on is not www.adobe.com, close the browser.
    If the number is for a "survey" to "win a trip", hang up. It's a scam to get your credit card in order to "secure" the trip.

    As an aside: Some people report that their cat will "mark" the MBP/MBA keyboard, and such "marking" is not civered under warranty.   Closing it while unattended may be wise.

  • I just recently purchased the iPad wireless keyboard and I've followed all the steps, but everytime I type in the code to pair it, it says it cannot be paired. I've kept in close range, pushed the connect but it won't connect. What do I do?

    AS Tesserax said you must
    disconnect your laptop from the existing wifi network
    Connect to the default Apple Networkxxxxxxxxx - that is your AEX open network
    Go to the Airport Utility and set the AEX router to extend the Existing Network >> in the AirPort Tab > Wireless Tab >> Wireless Mode - choose your Linksys network and enter credentials - your AEX should now join the Linksys network
    Then switch back to your original wifi network and your AEX should show in the AirPort utility as well, extending the range of your Linksys network, green light on
    PS: Win XP support for WP2 authentication downright *****. Even with SP3, get ready for some "cannot connect" warnings. My Dell laptop from work would have major issues connecting to my home's AirPort WPA2. I had to downgrade to WPA at some point.
