I just noticed that in my document every page consists of a large whitespace at the top. I have probably used some package that messed it up because I don't think it should be like this. How can I restore it to a normal spacing? Or what's normal?

    Can you provide an MWE? Or even a screenshot of the output? (A screenshot would basically tell us if it's normal / etc., but is hardly enough to actually fix the problem.) – Sean Allred Apr 29 '14 at 03:14

    We'll need to see more of what you're talking about. A "large whitespace at the top" is... not very clear. – Werner Apr 29 '14 at 03:15
  • @Werner Thank you. I've uploaded a picture. – hey Apr 29 '14 at 03:21

    That seems more-or-less normal, actually. Can't quite tell from the picture of just the whitespace—not much of a reference point—but you might want to take a look at http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/71172/17423. – Sean Allred Apr 29 '14 at 03:37

You can use the geometry package to adjust margins etc.

E.g I have

\usepackage[top=2.5cm, left=3.5cm, bottom=2.5cm, right=2.5cm, includehead]{geometry}
\geometry{headheight=28pt, headsep=18pt}

in my thesis.

But without a MWE it is hard to know if that would conflict with some other packages you may be using....
