I left my 2-year-old with my Mac for five minutes, and now the entire display looks like a film negative! How do I change it back?

 

Your tyke must've mashed the right four-key combo (Control-Option-Command-8) to invert your screen colors. Press that combo again to set things right, or open System Preferences > Universal Acess, and under Display, toggle White on Black back to the default Black on White.

 

Pro-tip (for the pros): This also makes a good prank!

 

Whoa, I gotta lay off the fried cheese.

Thanks,

Haha, I thought it was some kind of Earthbound app or simulator for MacOSX when in reality, Earthbound isn't even mentioned. Hoorah for awesome RPG's!
