Help. All of a sudden EVERYTHING on my iphone4 is twice the size. How do I get it back to normail? It is like the screen has been magnified and I hate it and cannot navigate with it. Any suggestions?

What exactly do you mean by everything?  Do you mean like including the app/home screen?

 

I don't know what the problem could be if everything including the app/home screen is enlarged, though you may want to check your accessability options and see if the zoom option is selected, also try triple tapping the home (square) button and see if a menu pops up, if so, select "Turn Zoom Off"

 

If it's just certain apps or in Safari, just pinch the screen (touch the screen with 2 finger, then drag fingers together), this should shrink whatever capable app or webpage you have up
