You can simply delete the whole configuration folder ${user.home}/.IntelliJIdea60/config
while IntelliJ IDEA is not running. Next time it restarts, everything is restored from the default settings.
It depends on the OS:

On Mac OS for IntelliJ v12, shut down the IDE, and then you can execute:
rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/IdeaIC12/*
Restart the IDE, or open a pom.xml of your choosing. You will be asked whether you want to import the preferences from an existing IntelliJ instance. Select the "No, I do not have a previous IntelliJ version" radio button.
You can delete IDEA configuration directory to reset everything to the defaults. If you want to reset the editor Colors&Fonts, then just switch the scheme to Default.
