Help! typed a code into Terminal and not Microsoft Word is all messed up

Hi everyone!
I'm hoping (really hoping!) someone will be able to help me.
I wanted my MAC desktop to save screenshots as JPEG images. (For a book cover I'm trying to design myself)
So I found an online "E-How" article that suggested I copy and paste two codes into the "Terminal." I did and it worked.
However, when I opened up MS Word ('11) for MAC, now my Word is completely messed up.  It has only about 30 fonts to choose from, it doesn't recognize the most basic commands.
How do I undo that Code I typed into the Terminal and get my desktop back to how it was???
Thanks!!

Hello, it's unlikely those commands directly caused your Word problem.
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
Any change?

    If you want to preserve the data on the boot drive, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that isn't fully working. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    1. Boot from the Recovery partition or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    2. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

  • Help with jquery code into iweb

    Hello,
    I am new to inserting code into iweb and was wondering if it was possible to use code such as the jquery plugins into an iweb html snippet? i would like to create a simple image gallery such as the following link:
    http://malsup.com/jquery/cycle/lite/
    interested in the click transitions (fade in out), but instead of using the prev / next as the click triggers if it was possible to use "+" and signs
    i appreciate any help you guys may provide,

    Yes, you can use JavaScript in the HTML Snippet. But it requires knowledge of HTML/CSS/JavaScript and how iWeb works.
    Anything you paste in the HTML Snippet is your responsibility. iWeb does not care whether it works or not. It happily publishes the stuff you paste.
    Read this article : [Using the iWeb HTML Snippet|http://www.wyodor.net/blog/archives/2009/07/entry_213.html]
    Follow the link in the article and read this sentence very very carefully:
    *Publish the page on the server and test it. Make sure it works. And test it again. And again. And again. No excuse.*

    Hi,
    OK. That means the default display lange of the OS is Thai. That is what was purchased. 
    You can try downloading  and using the  language appropriate LIPS (language interface package software) from Microsoft to change the  display language.
    Best regards,

  • HT6030 Help!  I upgraded to Maverick and my emails are now really messed up.  It flagged over 5,000 messages when I haven't flagged anything.  Now, the email message that people are sending me is actually an email message from years ago.  Any explanations

    Help!  I upgraded to Maverick and now my emails are really messed up.  It flagged over 5,000 emails that I have never flagged.  Now, it shows a message from someone this morning, but the content is an email that I received years ago.  My Iphone and Ipad are fine.  Any ideas?  I can't read mail off of my macbook because the email isn't what these people are sending!  Help!

    Thanks one again. I know you helped me the last to. I do have the Deja Vu font set in my folder. I downloaded and the last time. So I don't know if there is supposed to be more or not, but those were installed with Windows-XP after my reformat.
    This is really driving me nuts. as I've done several re-formats on my computer and several friends computers and even upgraded hardware so I am not necessarily a software or programming expert, I am somewhat advanced when it comes to computers in general and can usually diagnose the problem but these font's are the problem and they never were before.
    I did see in another forum that if you had a Dell Computer and did the Microsoft update for the onboard video card driver that it could be the culprit, but I have that disabled being I have a much better graphics card so the updates from Microsoft for the onboard video weren't installed.
    It' a Dell Dimension 3000 with an Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller so I don't believe it is the culprit being it is disabled. The actual video card that I am using is a PCI Nvidia GeForce 9400 GT with 1 GB Memory. And I didn't have any problem before.
    I appreciate the help. But still can't get things to work. Live Help Chat doesn't open for another two hours so maybe they can do "Remote Access" or something and can check setting and help me. But if you come up with other suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks again.

    I just updated to Lion and my Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint will not open because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. I bought this software from Apple and the store installed it when I bought the MAC. What do I do?

    Buy version 2011 of MS Office.
    Or you can download OpenOffice, LibreOffice or NeoOffice, which all come very close to working with MS files just like MS Office does.
    Or iWord, I have heard, you can purchase.

  • TS1717 Is it possible to uninstall & reinstall iTunes and not have to redo all of my playlists etc.?

    Is it possible to uninstall & reinstall iTunes and not have to redo all of my playlists etc.?
    I updated iTunes and the installation failed and now I cannot open iTunes.  The fix is to unistall and reinstall iTunes but I don't want to have to redo all of my playlists and things.

    Do not worry all your Data including Playlist, etc. will remain as it is.
    Do the following:
    Uninstall from Windows the following five programs: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application Support. You do this from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
    Download the latest version of iTunes from Apple and note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
    Run the iTunes installation as an administrator, just Right click iTunes installer and Run as Administrator.
    Note : If you are unable to Remove Apple Mobile Device Support you can skip that.

    when i use the apple tv it puts my computer to sleep.  the last time this happened i lost microsoft word with all the documents.  i'm asked to relaunch, but that step fails.  i'm frantic!  can anyone help me see my documents again? this also prevents me from reading attachments in my mail, since they are frequently launched in word.

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

  • When I try and open Microsoft Word 2011 documents they start opening one after another at a rapid speed and I can't stop it. I reboot and same thing happens?

    When I try and open Microsoft Word 2011 documents on my  IMAC they start opening one after another at a rapid speed and I can't stop it. I reboot and same thing happens. The documents open in rapid succession on their own and don't stop until I force close or after maybe 100 or more open I start getting the following message for each document attemting to open "This document could not be registered. It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document" and then in paretheses the name of the document. After I click okay another trys to open. Any suggestions?

    If you had multiple documents open and quit the app without closing all of the docs first, it will open them again when you launch the app. Open Word, and then close all the documents, you may be asked to save the document, if the document was already saved but you made changes to it before you quit the app, you may need to save the changes first, shorcut ( command and s keys). After you close all of the documents then quit the app and restart the computer. See if this works.

  • I need help getting this video into itunes and on my ipod.

    i don't know if this is possible...
    the band the films have a new music video "black shoes" on their website. www.the-films.com i got it on my computer and it plays as a movie in quicktime, but i can't figure out how to get it into itunes and on my ipod, if that's possible. i tried to open it in imovie and i couldn't get that to work either. any help would be awesome. thanks.

    To get it into iTunes go to file-->add to library and find the file.
    Try opening quicktime and open the file. Does it play there? It has to be able to play in QT otherwise iTunes will not accept it.

  • PFCG issue - removing transaction codes from menu and not clearing up the authorization tab

    I’m using SAP ERP version ECC6 and EHP5 and also we have updated our system with the PSCD FI module.
    I’m having the following issue in PFCG transaction code - I have created a new single role by copied other or from scratch and added few  transaction codes into the menu.  After that, I went in the authorization tab using the "Change Authorization Data" and I felled all the missing information until the role was green out.  I generated the role then I totally went out.  I come back to the same role that I created earlier and I did removed all the transaction codes from the menu and I did find the following:
    - the Authorization tab light didn't change from green to red
    - I went into the Authorization tab by "Change Authorization Data" and a part of the objects were still in.
    Normally behave should be:
    - when we remove one transaction code from the menu the light from Authorization tab should change from green to red.  When you empty the menu then the light color should change also, but the authorization tab should be also empty.
    Could please give me some idea how to do it next?

    Hi Gabriela,
    Most of the times standard roles contains manually added authorization objects. When ever you are creating a new role by copying the existing standard role so by default, these objects will come in to new role.
    Now, coming to your role. After removing t code from role if nothing has changed in Authorization tab means.
    Here are the possible reasons.
    1.  The t code which you have removed might not have any checked and maintained authorization objects, that's why your Authorization tab still in unchanged.
    2. Rememeber, when ever you are adding or removing t code from menu always use expert mode for profile generation option along with "Read old status and merge with new data" Option.
    This will bring the all checked and maintained data for each t code.
    3. After removing the t codes from menu and if you generate the Authorization tab by using expert mode option still if you find authorization objects means, those are manually added authorization objects that's why those were not removed.
    I hope this will give some clue to your issue.
    Thanks,
    Siva
