Aperture keywords - back to default setting please

Hi, my keywords in Aperture are in a right mess and I want to reset them back to the application default. I have tried deleting the .plist file but that doesn't work.
How can I sort this out?

I'm not sure, however, if you've been using keywords on your photos I'd suggest you just reorganizing them. You can create master items, then drag and drop other words into those masters and so forth. This allows the keywords to stay linked to your photos. Of course, I'm not sure what kind of mess you have so this might not be an option. The other thing You could do is select the top one, shift click the last one and hit command delete or just delete and remove them all and start over.
good luck,
glenn

    In the editor? Quit the editor , then restart it while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift. Keep holding the keys till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.

  • How to go back to default setting in a menu for a mac?

    I was wondering if for example I went in system prefrneces and change some options for my mouse. How would I be able to get back to the default setting of my mouse in sysytem prefrences so thing could go back to the way it wa roiginal set. Is this possible on mac?
    I know on windows for many options they have restore default settings on mac I dont see that option.

    **** that *****. In windows its just one button click to do that. Although I like mac's a lot more, I feel this feature should be incorporated to a future update.

  • How do i get off itunes being my default setting please

    i dont want itunes as my default programme,how do i now change this after having selected it

    Kappy,  Apologies for not being clear.  What I want to know is how do I get the automatic sleep function to automatically include turning off iTunes?  As it now stands, the computer goes into sleep mode after the amount of time I set in System Preferences, but iTunes continues to play.  I want to listen to iTunes while I am falling asleep, then have it go off after I am asleep, like a clock radio with a "slumber" button.

  • Default setting for CS5 on Mac.

    Several of my filters, preferences, etc. are "greyed".  I have shut down, turned off Mac and restarted but it does not reset Photoshop.  How do I get back to default setting without trashing program and reinstalling?

    Truly, I don't know much about anything and just learning about CS5 other than photo touch up.
    I am not at my computer but at work, but will try/look at whatever anyone suggests before deciding to
    reinstall program.  I was thinking if I could reset to default then
    all would be OK.

  • When I try to set FF back to default, I get XUL Runner: v. 15.0.1... What should I do?

    I'm running XP Pro.
    System has been running extremely slow; have tried other options but no success.
    Tried to set FF back to default, but I get the message: XUL Runner Error: Platform version "15.0.1" is not compatible w/minVersion >=12.0, maxVersion <=12.0.
    Is there anything I should be doing to get rid of this Error?
    I am not very computer literate, so please try simplicity in explanation.
    Thanks.

    hello hikerpat, this error might be caused by security programs such as zone alarm - please temporarily disable those programs and do a reinstall of the browser:
    *download the full firefox 15.0.1 setup file from getfirefox.com
    *uninstall firefox on the machine (but don't chose to delete your custom files & settings in the uninstaller)
    *manually delete all remaining files in the firefox program folder, which usually resides in ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\''
    *reinstall firefox

  • When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Micro

    When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

  • Firefox should allow users to maintain their zoom setting when switching to a different page, instead of going back to default every time.

    Page text appears very small on laptop while utilizing full resolution on a dell XPS laptop. Zoomed-in a notch or two it looks good. Readable without squinting. But browse to a different page, and its tiny all over again. Firefox, being the best browser on the web, should think about allowing users to maintain their zoom value when going to a different page, instead of going back to default. Just an idea... I know there's alot of laptops out there and if it's hard for me to read with good eyes, I'm sure it's hard for others.

    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
    Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965
    Or the NoSquint extension: <br />

  • HT5569 How do I set iphone back to default or factory setting?

    How do I set iphone back to default or factory setting?

    There's some confusion here. Do you mean the code to visit settings/general/restrictions, or the Apple ID and password to deactivate Activation Lock? Here's how to test.
    First, go to settings/General/Restrictions. Do you need to enter a 4 digit code? If you do, then connect the phone to your computer and restore the phone from Recovery Mode as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
    If no code is required to get into Restrictions what you need is the Apple ID and passcode that was used to set Find my iPhone. To verify that this is what is needed go to Settings/iCloud and turn off Find my iPhone. You will be prompted for your Apple ID and passcode. If you don't have them your phone is permanently disabled. You can contact Apple Account Security to prove you are the owner of the Apple ID and get the password reset. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

    It sounds like you might need to reinstall.
    If you can open Terminal, this note might be worth a try:

  • How do I set the settings back to default?

    Inherited my photoshop from previous employee.  How do I set the settings back to default like the keyboard shortcuts and anything else in the preferences?  Would like to do this without reinstal as finding the original disc will probably be a hassle.
    Thanks

    you can reset the Photoshop preferences in the following way
    Windows: Shift + Ctrl + Alt
    Mac: Shift + Command + Option
    Hold down the above keyboard combinations while starting photoshop.
    You will be asked if you want to reset preferences -answer yes.
    Cheers

  • Please can someone help me to get back the default colours on my mac book pro

    Help can anyone out there please help me get back the default colour settings on my mac book pro!

    Hi, thank you very much for your reply. I finally found out how to solve the problem. In System Preferences you go into Accesibilities and then you have to uncheck the box for Invert colour, somehow this got checked (no idea how!) anyway if checked all the colours go weird and photos & pics look like negatives. So I hope this will help other people too if they ever get this problem.
    Best wishes

    But after that, I don't know how to setup a new IP adress

  • What is the default screen brightness setting and keyboard backlight brightness default setting, and how to you go back to default?

    What is the default screen brightness setting and keyboard backlight default setting? I just got a new Macbook Air and fiddled a lot with it, and now just want to know how to set the brightness levels back to default. Thanks everyone!

    Hey sberman,
    I maxed out the screen brightness before I clicked on "restore defaults" in system preferences> energy saver (which has to do with battery, not exactly screen brightness) to see if the screen went back to a "normal" brightness level, but it didn't. I don't think it restored the brightness to default..
