I accidentally turned off the bluetooth on my iMac (mid-2011; Lion)...now neither my wireless trackpad nor my wireless keyboard will work and I cannot turn it back on (and I do not own a usb mouse as was suggested on the apple support page. It also mentioned that the bluetooth could not be turned off except by a usb mouse.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Easier solution: command-spacebar, search for Bluetooth File Exchange, arrow down to select it, and it will prompt you turn on Bluetooth. Click Enter.
