Totally OT: Computer experts..could use help

kimber607

Hi all

We have a MAC computer and the kids got the keyboard and now the screen is black and all pics posted on this site (any other site) I can't view....I can see them, but they look like an x-ray pic (If that makes sense)
I can see the outline of the pic and it looks black and white...

Any clue how to fix this??

Sometimes a simple time out will work. Save spanking as a last resort. Oh . . . you wanted computer advice. :blushing:

No expert, but try system preferences, displays.

I think restarting it should fix it.

Thanks...we already re-booted?

Try "apple + F5" - if it makes it worse, press those keys again. If it doesn't make it better, google the problem.

Found this for you--don't have a Mac but found this on a Mac board of someone else whose kid got hold of their keyboard.

Hope it helps!



In System preferences > Universal Access, Seeing tab, reset it back to Switch to Black on White.

Another way to do it is to press Command (Apple Key) + Option + Control + 8.
