Help! My macbook is displaying everything in reverse color-edit, found answer
Edited on Sat Dec-29-07 07:04 PM by dadsblacksheep
My son *may* have have hit some keys while I was out of the room, the other possibility is that my cat walked across the keyboard. I also installed a new battery yesterday. Anyway--my screen is displaying everything in negative colors, what should be black is white, and so on.

I've tried calibrating the color, this isn't working.

Can anyone help me?


EDIT--found the answer. If this ever happens to you, press control option command and the 8 key at the same time. Voila! Problem fixed.

1. You can also access the controls in the System Preferences
Go to Universal Access and under the "Seeing" tab, click on "Black On White"
