Cherry, welcome to the forum.
You should go into the BIOS setup by tapping the "esc" key continuously as the computer is booting. This will take you to a Menu. Choose F10 for BIOS setup. Once you are into the BIOS, use the arrow keys to move to the "Exit" Tab. Press the "Enter" key to open this Tab. Move down to the Default settings (may be a bit different wording) option. Press "Enter" again. You want to choose "Save and exit". This should set the computer back to the way it was when you bought it.
Now, for the password. The only choice that you have is do a System Recovery. There is no way to use the computer without the password.
For future reference, when requesting help you should always include the make/model (i.e. p6-xxxx) of the computer and/or monitor. This information is necessary for us to review the specifications of them.

How exactly did you shut down your laptop? Not a hard restart (holding down the power button), I hope... if that's the case, then it is extremely unlikely the file is still intact on your computer. If it is, it would be an image on your RAM, and it is time-and-resource-intensive to recover it if it is even there. RAM memory is disposable and always being written over. Sorry dude...
If it wasn't a hard restart, Keynote should have made a backup, unless you 'Force Close'd it.
It really all depends on how your mac was shut down.

How do I change the language back to english as it is running in chinese

How do I change the language back to English as it is running in Chinese?

On your keyboard, press the CTRL and the , (comma) keys at the same time
You will see a box like this:
Stay on the first tab (as shown) and select the drop-down menu as arrowed
English (UK variety) is the fifth one from the top. US variety English is the sixth one
Select your choice and click on OK
There will be an additional piece of text under the menu now; it simply tells you that you need to close and re-open iTunes for the language change to take effect.
That's it!

Launch iTunes. If you don't currently have your menu bar up, go control-B to bring it up. Now from the "Berwerken" menu select "Voorkeuren...", as per the following screenshot:
That gets you through to the preferences tabs. Now in the "Algemene" tab, go down to the "Taal" drop down menu. Select one of the two "Engels" entries (one is English UK and one is English US), as per the following screenshot:
... and click "OK".
Quit and restart your iTunes and you should now be seeing English again.

How can I change the language back to English on Appstore?

          I just recently upgraded my Ipod touch to iOS 5.0.1 and after that the language of applications Appstore & Itunes was set to French, while everything else is in English -as it is supposed to be as before the upgrade everything was in English-.
          Currently the Language set on my Ipod is English (From Settings->General->International->Language->English).
          The account for Appstore is not linked to any credit card it is a an account to only download free applications.

Thanks a lot,

Is the address on your account based in France ? The language of the stores should reflect the language of the country where your account is based, which isn't necessarily the same language as you've set on the device.
If your account isn't based in a French spealing country, then try logging out of the account (via Settings > Store) and then log back in (and also make sure that your address is correct and complete), and see if the language of the iTunes and App Store the reflect the language of the country where your account is based.

Please check in Settings: General: Keyboard: International Keyboards how many there are and which.
If there is more than one you can either delete the ones that you don't use, or if you want to type on different ones at different times you can change between them using the key with a world that appears when you are using the keyboard.

Just took my iPod classic 160GB out of box turned it on and accidently hit clickwheel or button and eveything is in language other than english. How do I get it back to english without being able to read symbols.

just took my iPod classic 160GB out of box, turned it on and accidentially hit a button changing the language from english to something else (chinese or japanese). All I see now is symbols. How do I turn it back to english without knowing what any of these symbols mean. I started clicking buttons and click wheel and can't seem to get to any section with various language options. Please some help me get it back to english.

There are two options. The first is to learn whatever language you have it set to, the second is to find someone else with an iPod Classic and read the English menu and follow it in your iPod. I also believe you may be able to set language perfunces from within iTunes while the iPod is docked, providing they are in English.

Touch screen on c4680 is in german, how do i get it back to english?

Please help.
One day the touch screen changed into german,,how do I get it back to English. I tried doing what the book said, by pushing top right button and then the middle and bottom on the right. but they never lit up..and it is in german so not sure if I was on right screen to start.

Try clicking once on the iSync icon, then choosing "Get Info" from the "File" menu.
Then, click the little triangle alongside "Languages" and see if English is available and selected.
If it's not there, you'll have to re-install iSync from your original Mac OS X 10.4 Install DVD, then re-install the 10.4.8 Combo updater.
Instructions for re-installing iSync are here:

IPad inadvertently set to Chinese - how do I get it back to English?

I got my iPad yesterday and inadvertently set it to Chinese. How do I get it back to English? Thanks!

I just bought 2 ipads and they both start in some sort of chinese or oriental language--both text showing on screen and voice. Really????? And guess what? Not a ******* word written in the pack on how to change it.
Oh, and the instructions to go to settings and change the language??? HelloOOO. It is still on some funky start up screen with a million version of the word welcome, but not a clue as to how to change anything related to language.
And to really make my day, the 'express' online support requests a serial number which you get AFTER you can login and check settings.
Can anyone who speaks chinese please tell me what symbols to look for on buttons to click to get to the freaking setup screen?

If your iTunes account is based in Germany then the App Store and iTunes store will be in German - they pick up the language of your account's country, and that can't be changed. If your account is not based in Germany then try logging out of it by tapping on it in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if the stores correct themselves.
