How can I get my InDesign keyboard shortcuts to work?

Can anyone please tell me how to reset my InDesign defaults. They were working fine a while ago, but now my keyboard shortcuts don't respond. Eg Ctrl X, Ctrl V, Enter and my arrow keys.
I have reset the preferences with Alt+Ctrl+Shift, and also renamed both defaults files, but still keyboard shortcuts don't work for me.

Your user account is not named Administrator, though, is it? You probably don't have the built-in Administrator account turned on (it's off by default). See Built-in Administrator Account - Enable or Disable - Windows 7 Help Forums and Elevated Command Prompt - Windows 7 Help Forums for directions on how to turn this account on and off.
Before you do that, though, you can try some other things. Go to your current user account, as directed in the previous post, and rename the two Adobe folders, reboot and restart ID. New folders should be created, and hopefully the permissions will be correct. If the shortcuts still are not there.
If that doesn't work, delete or rename the new Adobe folders created in the previous attempt, go to Users in Control Panel and create a new user account with and make it an administrator, then log on with that account and start InDesign. If the shortcuts work, copy the Adobe folders to your original user account.
Still not working? Make sure you are logged in on your regular account. On each of the two Adobe folders in your user profile right-click and choose Properties, then the Security tab. Verify that your user and System both have full control.
Still not working? Time to activate the Administrator Account.
Set a Restore Point before you do any of this stuff, just in case....

How can I get the Voiceover Keyboard shortcuts to show up in a form in which I can copy

I have low vision & have been trying to learn to use Voiceover on both my iPhone & my Mac mini for months. Very frustrating.
1. How can I get the Voiceover keyboard shortcut commans to show up in a form in which I can copy & paste them into a pages document so I can print it out & use for quick reference?? The one that shows up when I press VO +HH won't let me copy & paste it, & it won't show up in the Help section no matter what subject I enter. The help topics shown do not correlate with the topics I'm entering. why is that??
2. Please make the cursor able to be wider, like in the software program Zoomtext, that I used when I had a PC. The razor-thin cursor (in this text box!) in Pages is impossible for me to see.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

I know this is available to solution providers, if you are registered as such at partners.adobe.com. I don't know what level of membership is required, but that is one place the debug version is available from.

For some reason, your Mac doesn't recognise that a keyboard is present, so it looks for a wireless keyboard. The question is, why doesn't your Mac recognise that a keyboard is attached?
First, you need to make sure you remove all peripherals, especially USB peripherals (the keyboard is on the USB bus). Then restart holding down the Shift key. This should boot in Safe mode. If the computer boots normally (not in safe mode) and the keyboard is still not working, try resetting the SMC

If that still doesn't fix the problem, then the keyboard (or its controller) is probably damaged and needs to be replaced.

How can I get my wireless keyboard battery access to open. It's like the bloody thing has seized up and won't open?

How can I get my wireless keyboard battery access to open. It's like the bloody thing has seized up and won't open? Tried the coin...nope. Tried a screw driver...nope! Even tried WD-40 - nope! Or does this mean it's now in the boat anchor pile!

They are designed for coins... is this your first time changing the battery? Make sure you are twisting in the right direction and make sure you are pushing down on it and applying pressure at the same time you turn.

How can I get my mac email account to work?

That requires you to enter the configuration correctly. You can find out the configuration for your email from your ISPs website in most cases. Or if you're using Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail you need only Google something like:
"Gmail configuration for Apple Mail" or "Hotmail configuration for Apple Mail" (without the quotes).
That should get you started..

How can I get my wireless keyboard and my new magic mouse to enter info into a Christmas list app on iphone 3GS? Do I have to move to another room? I have bluetooth on in my iPhone.

I have wireless keyboard and a new magic mouse. I want to enter data into a Christmas list app on my 3GS iPhone. Too time consuming to just type on iPhone keyboard. How can I get keyboard and mouse to be 'connected' or recognized by my iPhone? I have Bluetooth "on" in my iPhone.

You cannot connect the mouse. This is not a feature of iphone
You can learn about connecting a keyboard in the manual:

How can I get my Indesign script to apply to all pages in the document?

My script (java) shown below will only apply to the first page of the document. How can i get it to apply to all pages of my document? What am I missing? Thanks.
scirpt:
myDocument = app.activeDocument
with (myDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences){
columnCount = 1;
//columnGutter can be a number or a measurement string.
columnGutter = "0";
bottom = "0"
//When document.documentPreferences.facingPages == true,
//"left" means inside; "right" means outside.
left = "0"
right = "0"
top = "0"
inside = "0"

Hi,
You have to iterate through all pages.marginPreferences:
var
myDocument = app.activeDocument,
allPagesMaPref = myDocument.pages.everyItem().marginPreferences,
curPageMaPref;
while ( curPageMaPref = allPagesMaPref.pop() )
with (curPageMaPref) {
columnCount = 1;
//columnGutter can be a number or a measurement string.
columnGutter = "0";
bottom = "0"
//When document.documentPreferences.facingPages == true,
//"left" means inside; "right" means outside.
left = "40"
right = "0"
top = "0"
inside = "0"
