Apple theme looks a bit old now, you could try the seaching for "communitheme" in the Ubuntu store, install, logout and select the new theme from the "gear" icon and login. Alternatively, the more modern windows 10 look (which I prefer) can be download from https://b00merang.weebly.com/windows-10.html – Bernard Wei Jul 13 '18 at 18:59

It may be easiest for you at this point to reset your theme and icons to the Ubuntu factory defaults with two command in the terminal:
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme
Open a terminal, copy and paste these two commands and your theme and icons will be reset to those of a freshly installed Ubuntu system. To change to other installed themes later on, you can use Tweak Tool.

3This fixed my problem, so thanks. Specifically my desktop settings were dorked because it was an upgraded system that apparently gnome had been used in the past so desktop settings got established. – Thomas Carlisle Aug 19 '18 at 13:38
