Reset positions of metaboxes in admin

In you PhpMyAdmin query for: (if you have a different database prefix, change that in the query, also change the user_id to yours)

SELECT * 
FROM  `wp_usermeta` 
WHERE  `user_id` =1
AND  `meta_key` LIKE  'meta-box%'

Than delete those values and you will get the original order back. If you only want to change the menu order back for a page than only delete “meta-box-order_page”.
