Why is my display reverse colors?

Everything that should be black is white and visa versa. How do I change it back? Or is my display fried?

And you don't have to hit only those keys. If you hit a bunch of keys that includes those four it will work. You can disable the keyboard shortcut in System Preferences>Keyboard>Keyboard Shortcuts>Universal Access.

  • Why are my display screen colors going blurry?  Is the monitor going?  Can it be fixed?

    The display screen of my Imac osx 10.4.4 had a vertical colored line through it for several weeks.  Now all the colors have become blurry.  I ran the hardware test and there are no issues.  Can the display be fixed or is the computer dieing?

    I had a similar issue with an iSight G5 about a year ago. The colors began to go funky on the screen and I ran every test I could think of. The situation gradually worsened and I finally put the iMac to rest in a back room in my basement. The hard drive still works and the information is accessible on it and I have retrieved just about everything I can think of from it. The computer didn't die, but the monitor did. An iMac without a working monitor is kind of useless.
    I'm guessing your iMac is fairly old - by today's standards anyway - and even if the monitor issue can be resolved, it may not be worth the cost. You would have to find that out on your own at an Apple Store or a Mac repair shop.
    Maybe it can be repaired .... and this is just my opinion .... but I would find a nice recycling place to lay the Mac to rest and buy a new one.

  • Why are thunderbolt display camera colors are not accurate?

    The colors while using the camera are very purple.  Using facetim when I switch to the MBP camera, the colors are fine.  This is a new display and because I did not discover the issue until after 15 days, apple will not exchange it.  Any suggestions will be appreciated.

  • Why aren't Calendar categories colored in month view

    On the iPhone 5S under iOS 7.0.4 in the Calendar app, in the month view, existting daily events are indicated by gray dots.  Why aren't these dots colored according to the event category?  My recollection is that used to be the case prior to iOS 7.0.  In day or week view, the time or full day are showing the respective category color.  And on the iPad Air, under iOS 7.0.4, the calendar month view DOES show the category color in the dot! Did Apple forget about this functionality?  I can see there is an event, but not the categories I used (medical, travel, etc).

    Comparing this functionality between a larger format such as the iPad and the smaller format on the iPhone is a little like apples and oranges. The iPad in Month view has enough space on each day to show discrete entries - and can consequently show them in their respective calendar colors.On the Phone, it only has space to indicate that one or more events exist (represented by a single dot). If you have more than one event, in different categories, which category color should it display?

  • Macbook Pro 13" Retina Display uneven color distribution

    Bought a 13" retina MBP 2 weeks ago and one day after, I realized that the display's color is unequally distributed. The left side of the screen, near the edge has a "blueish" stripe and the low middle area is "yellowish".
    I'm really disappointed as this is not acceptable for a high-quality (and high priced) product like Macbook Pro but it seems that I cannot do anything for it.
    I'm living in Vietnam, where there's no official Apple Store or Apple Service Center. There're two Apple Authorized Service Center available, though. However, one of them said they are not ready for the retina products, at least I have to wait to Jan 2013. Another center after some screen tests, which display different color patterns on-screen, with dirrect connection to Apple Server, they concluded that there's no problem with the screen. What the ****? I and all my friends can spot the coloring problem of the screen, so why did they say it's not problem?
    I tried to call Apple Support on a dedicated line (1-201-0288, then 800-708-5413) but I always got  a messgage telling me to try again. When I tried again and again, I cannot say I heard it properly but I think it said I was trying too much in one-hour period. What can I do now?
    I'm disappointed, Apple!

    Many people that get Samsung retina displays have complained of such a 'tint' problem - the others, who have LG models, complain of image retention.
    I don't know what to tell you to do at this point - if the service center isn't 'ready' to service Retina models, I suppose that you'll just have to wait. Calling AppleCare would have been my first suggestion, but you've already tried that and still no joy.
    I imagine that the AppleCare folks in the US are busy with all of the 'Black Friday' questions being slung at them - maybe Monday would be a better time to try to get through.
    Sorry that you're having problems - take a look at the "More Like This" to the right --->>> and look, particularly, at the "Macbook pro Retina display burn-in?" discussion.

  • CS4 extended. Capture One vs Photoshop . How can I be sure that photoshop use my Display icc  Color Munki Color Profile?

    CS4 extended, OS10.7.5 . When I process an image in Capture One Pro  and then open it in Photoshop CS4 extended and compare to my original image in Capture I can see a big difference . ( Darker in C1 and flat in CS4)     I contacted Phase One and they said that the problem was probably due to photoshop who do not recognise my  Color Munki Display icc profile . How can I be sure that photoshop use my Display icc Color Munki Profile? Thanks !!!

    Hello Station_two,
    Thanks for you response.
    Yes . that's what I did as I created an icc profile with Color Munki .
    My problem is  when you look at the left image   ( Capture One )  and  the same images processed  and open in Photoshop ( Right image ) I can see a big contrast difference ...
    Now, let's assume that photoshop work automatically with my icc Color Munki  in display panel , why the image in  Capture One do not look the same ?  Is it a question of setup in C1 ? In c1 ICC /Process recipe  I have Adobe rgb (1998)  selected.... 
    Thanks!

  • Can you change note colors in Stickies and, if not, why is there a Show Color tab in Stickies?

    I'd like to change the colors in Stickies as I have them hanging around on my display for a while. Can you do this? If not, why is there a "Show Color" tab in Stickies under the Font menu?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    In Mavericks, click on any sticky and then from the Sticky menu, choose color and set it. Stickies will only remain on your display as long as the application itself is running. You might consider dragging /Application/Stickies to your Dock. Right click on the Stickies Dock icon and you will notice Options.
    You can make Stickies an open at login item (this is enabled in System Preferences > Users & Groups> Login Items). Each time you startup your Mac, your stickies will appear on your display. You may also wish to select Keep In Dock. Any time that you want the Stickies off your display, you simply right-click on its Dock icon and select Quit. You can choose whether they float over other windows, and can also arrange them in specific order.
    The Show Colors menu item brings up the colors palette that allows you to change the font color in selected Sticky note text.

    For the "Arangements" option to appear, the external display must be turned on with the correct input selected and connected to the computer.  Then close system prefs, reopen, go to "Display" and "Arrangement" will be along the top.

  • How to display multiple colors in a lineseries?

    Hi,
    I want to display different colors in a line series based on some condition. As per my observation we can use fillFunction on columnseries to get different colored chart items, but it does not have any effect on lineseries. Is there any way by which we can get multi colored line series?

    It looks like you would have to create a custom line series component.
    You can create an ItemRenderer and add the data value as text to the points on the line series.  When you do that, you could adjust the style color of the Label text to correspond with conditions.

  • GPO to set display background COLOR

    Need to set the display background color with a group policy.  Found what seemed a good example to follow but nothing happens.
    http://serverfault.com/questions/213641/how-to-force-background-colour-with-gpo-centred-wallpaper
    Any assistance is appreciated.
    Windows 7 sp1 PC

    You could create a theme that includes the background of your choice, then share it using group policy.  Follow these steps to create the theme:
    http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/share-theme-with-all-users-windows-7/
    The Windows 7 GPO to "Load a specific theme" is under User Configuration --> Administrative Templates --> Personalization, which can be set to point to a shared location that contains the theme.  The drawback here is that existing user
    profiles will ignore this setting.  Only new users logging into the workstation for the first time will execute it.  So to convert existing users, you would need to push out a registry change that points to the new theme.
    In addition, you can also set "Prevent changing theme" and "Prevent changing desktop background" to keep the settings locked.

  • CFGrid tag not displaying background color

    Hi, My application runs on CF v 4.5 and uses CFGrid tag to
    display grids. When I run the same code on MX 7, the grid does not
    display the pale yellow background for the grid as it does on 4.5.
    Does anyone know how to fix this ?
    Thanks, Jay M.

    Hi CatJay
    I looked at the code you sent and it has no attribute in
    place to display any color in the background, so I am guessing that
    maybe back in 4.5 there was only 1 colour by default?
    Try adding bgcolor="#ffff00" to the cfgrid tag and see if
    that changes the colour to yellow. (it should)
    Once you get that to work, you can implement any colour you
    want.

  • HT204407 why is the display on my icloud page so freaking big. It's magnified about a hundred times and why can't I scroll up and down. The thing is frozen. It's very irritating.

    Why is the display on my icloud page so freaking large. It's magnified about a hundred times. It's like I can see only one letter at a time. I'm using a PC, but I recently bought an Iphone, so I was going with their technology. But this Icloud display thing is just a pain in the ***. I can't even use the scroll up and down feature. It's just a frozen solid block.

    My display for iCloud on my desktop is the same. Magnified and can't find a way to fix it. It is the same for all the accounts in my family. It is magnified on my sign in page.

  • Why is FCP_LOGIN displaying in log file

    We have a shell script that is registered and runs successfully in a dev environment. When we push this to a new environment we get the following values that display on the log file.
    FCP_REQID
    FCP_LOGIN
    FCP_USERID
    FCP_USERNAME
    FCP_PRINTER
    FCP_SAVE_OUT
    FCP_NUM_COPIES
    My main concern here is that the apps username/password is displayed in plain text. Why is this displaying in one instance but not the other? Any ideas how to turn this off? Could this be a setting in the concurent request?
