Yesterday I plugged a projector into my MAC and it went into like a safe mode screen. Once I was done and restarted the computer it was back into normal mode. Today it won't leave safe mode. I assume it's safe mode, everything is BIG and the screen is not my regular screen. This is where my computer literacy ends and my stupidity takes over. HELP please !!!! Thanks

OP, I think your screen may just be stuck in the projector's resolution.
If you are on 10.8:
If this is the case, go to System Preferences, Displays, Resolution, "Best for Built in Display"
If it's anything other than OS 10.8 (Mountain Lion), then reply and I'll give the directions for the specific version.

Thanks Steven, I don't have "best for Built in Display" it was on 800 x 600 stretched. I moved to 1024 x 640, does that sound right? That looks right but now my windows don't fill the screen. Have to adjust each one.
Taken care of, no posts needed. Thanks Steven.
Please don't triple post. ~Max
