How to reset Terminal after adding screenshot modification

Yesterday I messed with Terminal, not having a clue as to what it is or how to use it. Some users said that it was possible to save all your screenshots in various formats, such as jpg. The directions given were to paste the following line into a Terminal window and press enter: defaults write com.apple.screencapture type jpg;killall SystemUIServer
So I opened Terminal and was somehow able to add that line to the same page, after what was already there. It worked okay for screenshots, but now I'm having glitches in copying and pasting things from Safari to Word.
Could you please help me delete my change or reset my Terminal?

What glitches are you having? Nothing there should effect copying and pasting between apps so this mayt be a coincidence.
Have you tried rebooting since? I would shutdown the machine and then reboot and se if the problem clears. If not you will need to be more specific in your problem description.
regards

How to reset passwod after forgetting password

You can't recover a password. You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.

Password or passcode?
If you can't remember the Passcode, you need to restore the device from the computer it was last synced with.

How to reset Terminal to initial settings?

Hi all,
I lately have been trying to learn programming through online sources (particularly YouTube). I managed to fiddle around with the terminal application successfully but I am afraid I have done some damage. Since my knowledge of computers is so small, I don't know what I have done. I just know that it is not behaving the way tutorials expect it to.
I would like to reset the Terminal to how it was without me touching it. Is there away to delete my progress and start fresh?
Thanks.

I suggest:
-- making a complete backup of you machine.
-- create another userid for messing with terminal/unix.

How to reset bios after no-post from aggressive manual memory timings

I had my comp working fine with spd settings but I tried to set my Mushkin black label 3200 2-2-2 RAM to 2-2-2-6 and got a no-post after. I'm running bios ver. 1.4. I tried to short the jbat1 jumper to clear the cmos--i did it for 5 minutes, and set it back to the default jumper position, but i still got no-post... how can i reset the bios?
thanks,

Try unpluging the mains and removing the battery ,then use the jumper
If it still wont work try a single stick of PC2100 (or any other type of memory you have to hand) to get into the BIOS and change your settings back

How to reset bookmark after audiobook has finished playing?

I get audiobooks through audible.com. When playback is stopped a bookmark is saved. When playback is resumed it is possible to advance or rewind from this point. However, when an audiobook has played through to the end (sometimes accidentally) the book mark is at the very end so that the file does not actually begin to play at all! This makes it impossible to rewind it. The only way I have found to do this is when the iPod is conncected to iTunes where there is a slider associated with the file which can be adjusted. How can a bookmark at the very end of an audiobook file be reset when the iPod is not connected to anything?

It's possible to do in Captivate 3 by using some JavaScript code. Some have also reported that it works with Captivate 4 but I have not yet tested it myself.
You can try it out and see if it works out for you. Here is the link with the explanation and code: http://www.cpguru.com/2008/11/25/reset-bookmark-in-captivate-3/

How to regenerate classes after adding new related tables ?

HI,
I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4 to generate java classes from tables.
It is a great product, I like it a lot. I am planning to generate java classes in several iterations. I have one primary table, with FK from two different tables.
If I include all the 3 tables to generate java classes, it generates methods with which I can access the collections referred via FK. It is working great!
I like it a lot. Zero coding effort !!!
Now if I want to add another table, which is also a FK to the primary table, I was able to do the mapping manually using the mapper to create the relation. But how do I regenerate the primary class again to have a method to access the new collection?
Is it possible to do handcoding to introduce this new relation ?
If so , can you show some pointers ?
Thanking in advance
Sambath
Oracle Consulting

Hi,
Additional information for the above question.
I am just reading the data, since all the tables are existing tables and I don't have any need to update the data.

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 do I set up my Imac after adding a SSD along with my existing HD

How do I set up my Imac after adding a SSD so that my system and apps are on the SSD and everything else is on the HD? I am using mountain Lion. I want to make sure I can still do Time Machine backups.
I was planning on first formatting the SSD and then using Migration Assistant to copy the System and the Library and the Apps over. Where it gets confusing is the User account where some of the items will be on the SSD but I want all my folders to be on the HD. Do I just not copy over that other stuff and once I restart from the SSD it will know where all the folders are? Is there anything I need to know about setting up a time machine backup after that? Will the backup I had from the one drive have to be erased and start a whole new backup?
I just want to do this right so I don't have some major problems.
Thanks for any help.
Michael

time machine backed up your whole system data/everything in time machine hdd.
you want to use ssd over hdd so you need to put new mac os x in ssd.
then copy all the stuff that you want to put in ssd.
from my point of view put the mac os x and other application in ssd and leave other data in hdd.(music,movies,etc....)
