Acquiring a metalink support identifier to download XE patches

Hello leaders and followers,
How do I acquire a metalink support identifier to retrieve the patches for my free XE 10g product. I can't complete registration without one.
Manual says:
If you are not an OracleMetaLink registered user, then click Register for MetaLink and follow the registration instructions. To access OracleMetaLink, you must provide the support identifier you received when you purchased Oracle Database 10g. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/server.102/b32391/upgrade.htm#BABDFFIB
Thank you.

Hello leaders and followers,

  • Download Patch Set without Oracle Support Identifier

    How do you download the Patch Set under the developer licences. I don't have a Oracle support identifier.
    The relevance of this question is, when you have 4.2 on an Oracle Express instance how do you upgrade it to 4.2.1
    Can the 4.2.1 full download be used?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The developer base volume and software application user volumes have to be miles apart. :-)
    And commercial reality I expect will come from the user volume base (as in users using software built by developers).
    It is the era of .99cent apps and that model is effective when you have large consumption. How about all forum users have a registration fee of $2.00? :-)
    Anyway's the current scenario is not increasing take-up :-)
    e.g. Developer downloads express edition, this comes with a version of apex. Along comes new apex version. Now what is the upgrade path to try/test the new features.
    Keep in mind release cycles are shorter nowadays.
    We live in the era of VM's now.
    I want to be making 1 steps forward (upgrade apex) not 2 step back(export applications and misc, un-install apex) and then 2 steps forward (install apex, import applications and misc).
    Regards

  • Oracle support identifier

    I have logged into metalink.oracle.com and trying to complete the registration process, It asks me for a support identifier? I have downloaded oracle 10g for linux. Where do I get this from ?
    Prashanth

    You contact your local Oracle Sales person, and purchase a license, which includes a support contract. When you've done that, Oracle will provide you with a CSI number. That number is entered, and that will authorize you to access MetaLink.

  • This Support Identifier does not allow registration

    I got customer support identifier metalink id
    to create SR
    and also i created username
    and when i give csi no in the field
    i receives- This Support Identifier does not allow registration
    pls provide me the solution

    Hi,
    1- First check with concerned person in your department or point of contact who have provided the CSI number for you. Check the validity and details with him.
    2- further if it does not resolve your issue check with oracle sales/support people concern with CSI.

  • Endless waiting for the windows support software to download

    absolutely uncomfortable speed when windows support software drivers downloading
    it seems to take a few days!!!
    ohhh, that expensive big data center...
    has anyone same problem?

    Go to the BootCamp community and read about how many have the same problem.
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp
    Apple really doesn't want you to use Windows and only cranked up BootCamp to ward off the hackers who would have done it anyway like the "Hackintosh".

  • Support Identifier

    When i click on the Need Training & Support, Oracle asked for Support Identifier. Please let me know what is Support Identifier and from where we get the information of the support identifier.

    Under training and support there are contact numbers for Customer Care, there are free call numbers for your lcoal country. You need to call them and ask them what your CSI number is.
    cheers

  • Does firefox support direct torrent downloads

    does firefox support direct torrent downloads? If so what's the secret? If not what's the solution?

    Firefox is a web browser not a BitTorrent client.
    There are various BitTorrent extensions at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=BiTtorrent that works with say a BiiTorrent client or searches for example.

  • My HP Support Assistant is downloading driver updates but not installing,

    Hello there,
     I use  HP 15-r046tu Notebook PC, the issue is my HP Support Assistant is downloading driver updates and every single time its failing to install. I even saw earlier posts on this issue and downloaded the latest support assistant and also followed the instructions but yet its not helping to solve the issue. btw i am using windows 8.1.
    I would really appreciate if one could help me solve this isuee. 
    Thank you .

    Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
    Commentary
    Depending on the underlying cause of the problem, the HPSA (HP Support Assistant) may never be able to install the updates on your particular system.  The problem could be a server problem, it could be the Internet path the data has to take to get to your part of the planet, it might be your Internet provider  that, at any particular moment in time, is not cooperating, it is possible that your computer is having RPC issues due to outdated drivers, File System errors --- whatever.
    IF you find and fix whatever mystery is causing the root cause of the prlblem, then Voila!  The install portion of the program may work.
    This wonderful program works for millions of people -- and yet it does not work for many deserving folks who have done nothing wrong and who do not know why it does not work for them.
    Make sure your Windows Updates are current.
    Create a Restore Point:   Create a Restore Point – Win7 OR  Create a restore point Win8
    Next:
    Close all your programs and shut down your computer
    Shut down and Switch off any other computers in the network
    Switch off any printers on the network
    Switch off the Router
    Disconnect everything on this computer (little Unifier for the keyboard / external mouse can stay)
    Perform the Hard Reset for your notebook model
    Switch on the router - wait at least thirty seconds for the router to boot.
    Boot the computer and log in
    Reminder:  Hard Reset is just a device Reset.  The procedure does not wipe out your files nor does it destroy your Windows setup in any way.  It just "clears the cobwebs".  Depending on the cause of the problem, this kind of "reset" can fix a variety of computer glitches.
    This exercise is unlikely to fix the problem; it might do so if the problem is minor and related to stuck instructions or minor temporary link or device issues.
    Suggested Workaround to the problem
    You can use the Patch list provided by HPSA and then open your computer's website to find, download, and install the drivers and software you want to update.
    NOTE:  Please see the Comments below before you Update your BIOS.   Please do not update the BIOS unless it is necessary and your computer is fully backed up beforehand.   
    Your computer's Support Website:
    HP 15-r046tu Notebook PC Drivers
    Reference:
    Install Software and Drivers from HP Website
    =======================================================
    Commentary -- BIOS Updates
    It is this Expert's opinion that you should not depend on HP Support Assistant when it comes to BIOS updates.
    Depending on other factors in the system at the time the HPSA tries to hit your system with an update of this type; the results might be ... other than expected.
    You might set HPSA to "Notify" to prevent it from trying to update your BIOS.
    ONLY update the BIOS when you see an update in your computer's webpage AND that update can be used to provide a fix for an issue you have discovered in your system.  In other words:  If your computer is happy, do not update the BIOS just because you think it would be a nice thing to do to it.
    If you decide to update your BIOS,
    Make sure ALL your backups are current and complete - this means everything you need to restore the system in the event that something goes wrong.
    Understand that even when you do everything exactly right, you can end up with a bricked computer, that is, an expensive paper weight.
    Make sure you have at least your critical data on some form of external backup.
    Disconnect USB drives and any other unnecessary hardware.  Keyboard and mouse can stay connected.
    Always run in AC power when updating the BIOS, never on the notebook battery
    Do not touch the system while the update is in progress
    Optional: Leave wireless button ON. You might switch off the router to assure there are no interruptions.
