Q: Macbook Pro Not Coming Out Of TV Format
Hi all,
So I connect my Macbook Pro to my TV at least once a day. I'm not sure what the cord I use is called, but I plug it in to the HTML outlet in the TV. Unfortunately, as I was watching Netflix, my laptop died. I unplugged it from the TV (dead) and plugged it into the charger until it was fully charged. When I unplugged it from the charger and powered the laptop on, it remained in the TV Format. This means that all of my documents are small, the grey bar at the top of the screen is small, the mouse is small, the text is small, the screen is basically smaller than normal because it is adjusted to the TV.
I have attempted to plug it back into the TV and unplug it to see if it would come out of the TV mode, but to no success. I don't REALLY want to reset the whole thing because I have Microsoft applications download on here.
Any ideas on how to take it out of the TV format and return it to the normal screen proportions?

If you open Display Preferences what options/setting are available to change?
Have you tried changing those?
