Monitor Problems

[tortus32]

I have a regular 17 inch Apple Studio Display, and it looks funny all of a sudden. Everything has really bright areas, like folder icons on my desktop have really bright top left corners. It's like the contrast is way up, even though it's not.

I tried calibrating, but that fist step that you do, the one with the grey oval on black...the oval never shows up no matter how bright I adjust or how high I adjust the contrast.

Could this mean the monitor is on it's way out?

Thanks,

Bill

Could you have accidentally activated on of the Universal Access preferences, like perhaps the Contrast setting? Check the "Universal Access" pane of the System Preferences...

That did the trick.
For some reason the contrast was set way up in there.
One of my kids must have been screwing around!

Thanks,
