How to reset Command-V on a Macbook Pro?

Hi, this probably applies to iMacs and other macs as well, but how do I reset my keyboard shortcuts? What I mean is the regular ones, like Command-V (Paste), Command-C (Copy), Command-T (New Tab), Command-F(Find), etc. I went to system preferences->Keyboard and Mouse->Keyboard Shortcuts but when i clicked reset defaults, nothing worked. This is really annoying, because before I went into there, and I accidentally set this thing to Command-V, and I am really missing my pasting D:. If anybody can help, I would appreciate it

Nevermind, I found the answer:
"Safari contains a number of new-and-existing keyboard commands. To see the entire list, click the Safari icon and choose "Show Package Contents." In the new window that opens, navigate to Contents -> Resources -> English.lproj -> Shortcuts.html. Nothing earth shattering. Enjoy! "

Does anyone know how to reset the fan on a MacBook Pro 13-inch (Late 2011) to it's factory setting speed (Maybe Terminal may help?)

I have a late-2011 13-inch MacBook Pro running OS X Yosemite. (Standard configuration).
My problem is that I downloaded a fan control application and it worked perfectly, but it started to get annoying so I deleted it.
Does anyone know how to reset the fan speed back to factory settings (Maybe a command in terminal?)

How to reset user and password on MacBook Pro without CD

I recently bought a MacBook Pro, 15" with Lion on Ebay.
There are times when I am asked for a password. I have asked the person who I bpught it from, but he does not remember.
I do not have the original disk, so I need a method to reset the user and password.
Thanks

Thank you for your input.
I received an e-mail from a computer tech that thought the following would work; please let me know what you think:
ResetLion password with Single User mode
Anyone running Mac OS X Lion cantake advantage of this method:
Shut down your Mac and turn it back on while holding     down the Command and S keys at the same time until your see     a black screen with white text. This is known as Single User mode.
You can skip this step, but it’s recommended that you     don’t because it will check the consistency of your hard drive. At the     prompt, type fsck -fy and press Enter.
Once the disk check is complete and the prompt returns,     type mount -uw / and press Enter.
Type launchctl load     /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.opendirectoryd.plist and press     Enter.
Type ls /Users and press Enter. All of the     usernames on the computer will be listed, which is helpful if you don’t     know or remember what these are.
Type dscl . passwd /Users/username password     while replacing username with one of the users displayed in     the previous step and replacing password with the new password     of your choice. Press Enter. You will likely get an error message about a     file or directory not being found – it’s safe to ignore this.
Type reboot and press Enter.

How to reset display resolution on a MacBook Pro

Hi,
My MBP 15.4 /2.4GHz display is stuck at a low colour display and I am unable to get it back to normal. I was working in MS Remote Desktop Connection, switched into OS X's Universal Access in System Preferences and that's when the fun started.
I've tried resetting PRAM using CommandOption+PR, but to no avail. My display settings in System Preferences show what one would expect - 1440x900, millions of colours. Changing these and switching back does nothing.
The thing is, when I start up, the desktop shows the display as it should be for a split second before it garbles the display's colours. It looks like an old Win 3.x box with 16 colour settings.
Is there a config file I can delete to reset the display, or some other way round this? Any suggestions would be much appreciated...
Cheers,
buddsbrains

Called Apple support, turned out to be a corrupt preference file; I renamed the preferences folder & rebooted & that resolved the issue. Now have to rebuild / copy back my old preferences...

How do I uninstall mackeeper from my macbook pro?

How do i uninstall mackeeper from my Macbook Pro?

You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
          com.something.daemon.plist
and
           com.something.helper.plist
Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents
In this folder, there may be a file named
          com.something.agent.plist
where the string something is the same as before.
If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
Open this folder:
/Library/Application Support
If it has a subfolder named just
           something
where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
Finally, in this folder:
/System/Library/Frameworks
there may an item named exactly
            v.framework
It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
          Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
          Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

How do I set up my new Macbook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover?

How do I set up my new MacBook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover? I cannot get it to work right; it seems to get stuck and repeats the same thing over and over. It is driving me nuts! Is there a way to begin the setup process without using the Voiceover system? I am a new convert from a PC and I thought a Mac was supposed to be "intuitive!"
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Pamela

There is no good reason to register your Mac anyway.
You can opt out of the setup process and registration by pressing Command (Apple key) and the "Q" key.
The registration process requires you to divulge a lot of unnecessary information.

I can not see photos neither events preview on Iphoto ! How can i fixe that ? (Machine : MacBook Pro)

i can not see photos neither events preview on Iphoto ! How can i fixe that ? (Machine : MacBook Pro)

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s? And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.

How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s?
And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.
I have been using the standard camera on the iPhone and require 300 dpi to create photo books as the photos are resized according the layout.
Your time and assistance in appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Tonefox!
After looking at a few of the links I found a mathematical equation that assisted me.
Inches = Pixels/DPI
eg: 3 inches = 300 pixels/100 DPI
Using this equation and the fact that iPhone 4s takes photos that are 3264 x 2448 I was able to work out the largest print I could make with 300 DPI.
Width 3264 pix/ 300 DPI = 10.88 inches
Height 2448 pix/ 300 DPI = 8.16 inches
Therefore, the largest print (with 300DPI) I can make of these photos is 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches.
Which is great!
So is it critical for me to change the dpi in say photoshop or does it not matter as long as I don't go above the 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches?
From what I can gather the smaller I resize the photo the higher the DPI and the bigger I stretch the photo the lower the DPI?
Further clarification will be much appreciated. Thanks

Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

Hi
Does anyone know How to run twin monitors on a MacBook Pro operating on a Windows Server 2008 R2 ?

I know this doesn't help you much, but, I think you have to see if your Mac pro does audio out via HDMI. I don't even know if mine does via DVI. I think it may have to do with the adapter. Try going into Audio MIDI and setting the digital out to multichannel
and using the toslink cable for now. Lemme see...apparently DVI does not carry audio at all. Hm. apparently monoprice could be helpful? If I understand what you're saying correctly: you want to take DVI and multichannel audio via the Toslink and have it all go out over HDMI, right? Whooo..... amazon...looks like it's about $100http://www.amazon.com/Audio-SPDIF-Toslink-Converter-Adapter/dp/B0015YYOQQ
just a shot in the dark
I'm probably wrong....or not
