Screen is huge on my MacBook

[acppa]

I need some help. My 2.5 year old pushed some buttons (some combination on the lower left hand side) on the MacBook and now the desktop is huge. It's not just safari, it's the entire desktop and I don't know how to fix it.

I went into system preferences, universal access, and the zoom is turned OFF. Any other ideas how to fix this?

Check the resolution from Sys Prefs -> Displays

It should be 1280x800 (assuming you have 13")

Yup, sounds like a resolution problem.

What are your settings in System Preferences > Displays > Display?

It's set at 1280x800 and it's still huge.

don't forget to check the universal access options for screen zoom as well

Try resetting your PRAM

Reboot?

Hold down apple+option and then hit the minus key a few times to zoom back out. Then go into system preferences and turn off zoom.

ps. I can't read good.

... the zoom is turned OFF.

See above.

Still, try turning it back on and doing it anyway. It's possible the same key mashing zoomed it and turned the zoom off.
