How do I restore dashboard to default

As default, Dashboard in OS X Lion has Clock, iCal, Weather, and calculator all nicely arranged in the middle. But over time I moved them. Is there any way of restoring the default widgets and their placement? I know I can get the widgets back but I can't align them the same way as what they came with. Is there a way?

Select any Dock icon and simply move it to a different spot on the Dock. For more help see Mac 101: The Dock. To reset the Dock:
Delete these files in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder:
com.apple.dock.plist
com.apple.dock.db
Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder and restart the Dock by entering:
killall Dock

You may have activated Zoom. Double tap with three fingers to reduce the zoom size then go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom>OFF.

How do you restore your program defaults?

i messed up my default program settings on shortcuts. Now all my shortcuts open with microsoft word......not helpful at all. How do I put them back the way they were?

Hi,
The easiest way to solve this is to run Windows System Restore. If you have Norton Internet Security installed, you will need to disable Nortons Tamper Protection as shown in Step 2, on the link below.

Once you've done this, shut down the notebook. Windows System Restore is usually best run in Safe Mode. Tap away at f8 as you start the notebook to enter Windows Recovery Console. Use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode and hit enter. When this has loaded, from the Start Menu, click All Programs, click Accessories, click System Tools and launch System Restore. Pick a restore point at least 24 hours before the change in file associations was made and then proceed with the restore process. When complete, Windows will reboot as normal.

How to Get My Dashboard as Default Page Instead of Home Page in OBIEE 11G?

Hello Gurus,
I have one requirement where i need to change default page to "My Dashboard" like what we had in OBIEE 10G ?
Rite-now in OBIEE 11G when any user logs in they are directed to "Home" Page, but i want to change the navigation to "My Dashboard" for all user..
I know the option to in My Account and Change the Default dashboard in Preferences , but it's manual way to do it for all end-users.
and the other is to create the PORTALPATH Variable and do it from RPD.
So I am looking to some other way there we can change the navigation path from system file itself...
Thanking You..

Hello David,
Thanks for reply.
Actually I am just concern abt the OBIEE Dashboard page, the link that u have mentioned is for Application Server, where we can manage the multiple Application Portals.
and it also doesn't come with Middleware that we are installing for OBIEE.
so i did get some useful information but not related to my question.
is there any place in EM(Enterprise Manager) or Console(Admin Console) from where we can manage the Default Portal for OBIEE Users?
Thanking You..

How can I restore the old Default theme settings?

Woke up this morning to find that firefox automatically updated their Default theme add-on to version 22. All information on webpages (fonts/images/etc) is about 4 times the size it used to be, yet the menu bar font is the same size. I can't find a way to get it back to the way it was- since if won't let you get rid of it, and I can't use it the way it is- since I have to scroll just to get past the address bar in my email (and my resolution is set to the highest possible). Any ideas for something similar to the old version? since this font size makes it seem like I am reading from a children's book and is completely intolerable.

That would be this reply:

How can I restore my brush defaults

I had a lovely evening exploring the brush libraries last night, having created a simple elipse and was exploring the various stroke options.
I have since closed illustrator, rebooted my Mac and tonight when I go in with a brand new document, I have a basic line brush but not the basic dashed... I'm rather a newbie so am probably missing something vey basic (other than my simple dashed stroke!)... but any help would be very appreciated!

Did you save the brush as a new brush library? If not explore the New Document Profiles as a way to have user created content in your new files.

How do i restore the original Firefox default theme?

The new Firefox brings a map of the world as it's default theme. I prefer the old one - Firefox himself!
How do i restore the original default theme? Can anyone help? Cheers

If you prefer not to see snippets then you can set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref to an empty string on the about:config page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
Delete the storage\moz-safe-about+home folder in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed to reset snippets stored in IndexedDB.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
You can reset the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref via the right-click context menu to restore the snippets.

How do i Restore Preview as my default viewer when using Safari,seems adobe has hi jacked Safari,if i uninstall adobe safari will not open any pdf files.

How do i restore Preview as my default viewer.
Seems adobe has hi-jacked Safari and and opens using abobe not preview.
Have uninstalled adobe but safari then will not display any pdf files.
Preview still works fine to view existing downloaded files.

Niac --
What kind of files? PDFs? or Others as well?
If you want Preview to open all PDFs, then find a PDF on your HD.
Highlight it, and then press the Apple/Comand key along with th letter " i " key.
When the window comes up, look down to the "Open with" line, and change it from Adobe to Preview.
Then look slightly below, and select "Change All."
Now, all PDFs should open with Preview.

Suddenly my PS CS5 defaulted its "Save As" to JPEG2000, how do I restore it back to "Save As" JPEG?

I got a new computer (Windows 7) at work this April and as of today, when I work on any of my JPEG images in PS CS5, suddenly it has defaulted its "Save As" to JPEG2000. How did this default change and how do I get it to default save as. JPEG again? There was nothing I noticed and no warning as to why this has changed, I didn't touch a thing!
(Last week, Adobe had to work with our IT manager to fix a problem that started occuring with my new Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 program. They had to log into my computer and change a registry thing to get it to work properly again...also something that changed without warning!!)

Thank you Curt Y, as I saw your post reply come through, I had just hung up with Adobe support (after being on the phone for an hour & a half).
To be clear...prior to today, if I opened a JPG file, and did an immediate "save/save as", it would automatically re-save as a JPG file but it seemed to suddenly be defaulting to a "save/save as" JPEG2000.
They claimed that yes, there was a fix for this and while I was on hold she had me follow a few directions which DID fix the issue. While we were on the phone she was able to have me restore it to at least a default "save/save as" for a PSD file rather than a JPEG2000, which is better than nothing and she was about to help me get the default set so that when I open a JPG it would automatically default to "save/save as" a JPG, but she couldn't get it that to work. After she logged on to my computer to physically do it herself and failed to fix it further, she thinks my security permissions (we are on a network) are not set properly and she wanted to create a new user account with the proper permissions but we were halted because our IT guy is not in right now.
She gave me a case# and when he returns tomorrow, we are to try her list of instructions starting with creating a new (PS CS5 user account) then if that does not restore the "save as" defaults we are to uninstall, then re-install PS. If this still does not work we are to call her back and they will try to fix it from there. She did tell me that in my version of PS (CS5), she was able to open a JPG (on her end), then hit save as, and it defaults to saving as a JPG, not a PSD as is happening to me.
Before I posted here, I did do an iternet search to find out how to set the defaults, however I too found that everyone says there is no such default of a "save as" JPG...but Adobe claims otherwise. We shall see what happens tomorrow...

How do I restore default view

Question in title. I accidentally did something in iMovie '11 and it changed the view to what you see below:
How can I restore it back to the default view?

This is iMovie 10 (the latest), not iMovie '11 (=iMovie 9).
The appearance is what you get if no project is active. If you double click on a project icon or Select File - New Movie, the timeline should appear.

How do I restore default SSL security certificates/authorities/servers?

A website I visit often was having SSL certificate issues. I did not know what certificate I needed to remove in order to get it working again... So I removed ALL of my security certificates/authorities.
I did not realize it would be near impossible to restore them.
Now every website I go to is "untrusted" and I need to confirm a security exception.
How do I restore the certificates/authorities to the default state?
I tried removing firefox and reinstalling, but that did not fix it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. At this point I'm tempted to just switch to Chrome or another browser.
