If not you can just ciopy your prefs folder back over, and carry on scratching your head.
I've seen a similar thing but its a windows display setting so not much help on a mac
Steve, you're a life saver! Took me a while to find the prefs folder (for some reason they buried it in some foreign folder). Went through and moved around some files and it happened to be the last one I looked at (seriously, it was the last one I copied over), which was the pluginPrefs.mel file. I reloaded my plugins and found out that it was my Maxwell plugin.
