How to restore Macboo pro (Lion) defautl keyboard command settings?

Hi there,
I am not sure what happend, but all of the sudden my default keyboard commands are not following the "defaut settings" already in place on my mac...
Example, when I use the screen capture, (commnad+4) it kick me back to the previous page, and when i use the command+3, it kicks me forward.(to the page I was in the first palce.
I did check the settings such as untick the F1 thing, and I did select the options "restore default".. Could anyone help me please?
thank you

Just do as sig says - hold down the Command and R keys while booting. This will take you to the Lion recovery disk (a small partition on your hard drive). You can erase your disk from here using Disk Utlity and restore Lion by using Internet recovery. Make sure that you have a good Internet connection because Internet recovery can take quite awhile.

How to upgrade MB Pro Lion to Yosemite

Looking for some "how to" advice on upgrading software from(Late Year 2011) 15" Mac Book Pro Lion 10.7.5 to newer Yosemite OS X. I'd also like to remove all old non-working Power PC Apps and any other junk, bugs or viruses it might have. Looking forward to anyones opinions or recommendations on these upgrades. Thanks H.

First check and see if your machine is in the recall pool:
Apple Recall:"
https://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro-videoissues/
It will help us to know how much RAM is installed. I would say you'd need at least 8 GB to be effective.
I personally have avoided Yosemite, read a lot of posts here and on the Yosemite site. I'm still running Mavericks and Lion.
You might also consider upgrading your HD to an SSD:
https://www.macsales.com/
Is the vendor of choice for me.
If you're set on Yosemite the site is here:
https://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/
Make a working clone of your current OS before you do anything.
You might do a clean install of Lion and migrate just the applications you want.
"any other junk, bugs or viruses it might have."
If you don't feel it's running up to spec check out the serial number on the recall site.

Restore macbook pro back to the factory settings, Snow Leopard, then back to Mavericks

If I restore my macbook pro back to the factory settings with the OS X install disc, it came with Snow Leopard. Would I have to pay to go back to Mavericks OS?

If you have Mavericks now, why not just boot into the Recovery partition, erase the disk with Disk Utility, and reinstall Mavericks? Command and R at boot should get you to the Recovery partition.

How to move files by using a keyboard command?

On Windows or Ubuntu, If I choose a file, press control & x and press control & v in a different folder, the file can be moved easily without dragging the file in to the destination folder. I tried to do the same thing on Mac OS X, but Mac OS only allows me to use apple & x if I tried to cut texts. Is there any way to use keyboard commands or other ways to move files not by dragging?

no. you can not cut files in OS X. But you can copy and paste with command+c and command+v. also, you can install a 3rd party contextual menu to move files which will be available from the right-click menu.

How to restore macbook pro?

I want to reset my macbook pro to change its keyboard settings. But i just want to know how to change the forward/backward,play/pause and volume keys to normal because they will not work now.
HELP!!!!

Do you know what model you have (i.e, "late 2011" or "8,2")? You need to call Apple at 1-800-MYAPPLE and order the installation disc(s) that shipped with your unique model. Then you can boot from the install disc, reformat the hard drive, and install everything just as it was when it was new.
Good luck,

How to restore OS X Lion from an Ebay purchased Macbook

So I recently purchased a Macbook from Ebay and am now trying to re-sell it. It came with a fresh installation of OS X Lion and I want to reset it to be sold. When I go to the Apple Store it tells me Lion is already installed on this machine and becuase I didn't purchase Lion from my Apple ID I can not re-download it. How can I restore a fresh copy of Lion to sell it?

Did this machine come with Lion preinstalled originally, before you bought it, or did the previous owner upgrade it to Lion? You may not know the answer to that question, but I would guess (based on how long machines have been shipping with Lion) that it would be the latter.
The problem with the latter case is that Lion was purchased by someone else, and you do not technically own it. The solution would be to reboot from the original system disks that came with the machine, erase the hard drive and reinstall that system. Don't try to purchase and install Lion on the machine before selling it, or the buyer will have the same problem down the road at some point. If the buyer wants Lion, they can buy it with their own Apple ID.
Of course, most likely you didn't get the original system disks when you bought the machine. Most people selling Macs don't include the disks, unfortunately. If that is the case for you, contact Apple. They will send you replacements for a small shipping & handling fee.

You can use either the HDD recover or the Recovery disk.
If HDD recover does not work and if you dont have the disk then you could order this here:

How to restore or backup Apex application from Command line ? URGENT

We have Oracle apex 4.1 installed in Oracle 11g R2 database (windows 64-bit) 2008 R2
For some reason our database dictionary objects are corrupted.
We wanted to backup our Apex applications in some workspaces ASAP.
We are not able to access apex from http://localhost:7777/pls/apex/htmldb_login
We have an underlying database schema export (expdp).
1) Is there a way to export or backup the apex application without logging into the apex URL ? if yes how ?
2) Does Oracle has any of its own native tool to backup and restore from command line ?
Thanks in advance

My (MS Windows) experience, if I may; perhaps you'll find something useful.
You'll find the README.TXT file in /apex/utilities directory. Read it.
In order to use APEXExport, you need JDK version 1.5 or higher. Check your version by typing (and viewing the result):
C:\>java –version
java version "1.6.0_06"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_06-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 10.0-b22, mixed mode, sharing)Its directory should be part of the PATH environment variable: on my computer, directory name isC:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_06\binFurthermore, Oracle JDBC class libraries must be part of the CLASSPATH environment variable. Check whether it exists (in Control Panel - System - Advanced - Environment Variables). For my 10gXE, it is here:C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jarI couldn't make it work; didn't know that ".\" directory must be entered into CLASSPATH as well (found that information in Arie Geller's book). Therefore, my final CLASSPATH version is:.\;C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jarOK, setup is done. Now, go to your /apex/utilities directory and, from the command prompt, run (mind the upper case!)java oracle.apex.APEXExportwhich will show a short help.
I chose to export the whole workspace. In order to do that, I need the workspace ID (got it from Apex's SQL Workshop; that might be a problem as you can't get there, can you? I can't tell how to find that information apart from SQL Workshop, but I'm pretty sure someone, who is much more experienced than me, will know it). OK, here's how you find it:select v('WORKSPACE_ID') from dual;Finally, here's the final step - export:C:\apex\utilities>java oracle.apex.APEXExport -db localhost:1521:xe -user scott -password tiger -workspaceid 1038408092496568The result are fxxx.sql files (where "xxx" represents application number).
I hope you'll manage to export your applications; basically, nothing special here (except that ".\" directory in the CLASSPATH variable).
Best of luck!
