This minHour teaches you how to invert your Mac's display colors.
Steps
Open the Apple menu.
Click the Apple logo in the top-left corner of the screen. A drop-down menu will appear.
Click System Preferences….
It’s in the drop-down menu. The System Preferences window will open.
Click Accessibility.
This is in the System Preferences window.
Click the Display tab.
You’ll find it in the pane on the left side of the window.
Check the “Invert Colors” box.
It’s at the top of the window. You should see your Mac’s display colors invert at this point.
If you are running OS Mountain Lion, you can use the keyboard shortcut.
If you want to enable or disable color inversion without opening the Accessibility menu, you can press Control+⌥ Option+⌘ Command+8 to do so. In OS High Sierra, you can enable this keyboard shortcut in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts.
Tips
- You can actually invert the colors on an iPhone or iPad screen as well: open Settings, tap General, tap Accessibility, tap Accessibility Shortcut, check the “Classic Invert Colors” option, and triple-click the Home button (or the Side button on an iPhone X).
- If your computer’s color settings appear distorted after switching back to regular colors, restarting the computer may fix the problem.
Warnings
- It’s best not to do this on a public computer. Other people may not know how to change it back.
