Hold down the "control" key and then scroll down on the trackpad (two fingers down if applicable) or scroll down with the wheel on the mouse. See if that zooms out.

If that doesn’t work, maybe your resolution got changed somehow. Check System Preferences > Displays

Hah, it's probably that. When I saw the word zoom, I automatically thought of the screen being zoomed into a certain location. The resolution is probably the problem.

Actually I think your first idea is probably right. That’s what I thought at first too. It seems like an easier thing to do by accident. I just wanted to make sure all the bases were covered.
