Problem with tuning
(sorry if its in the wrong section!)
Hi. Well I just tuned my guitar to DADAAE to try a song and now I just tried to tune it back to EADGBE but it sounds totally out of tune. I tried tuning it back to standard with a chromatic tuner then I tried with a normal tuner but it still doesnt sound right.
I've stopped trying to tune it now incase a string snapped. Could anyone give some advice? thanks in advance.

I would suspect you've overshot a correct octave on a string or two.
Detune them all so they are fairly slack then retune like you'd be putting a new set of strings on the guitar.
