Backing up using Export/Import & ITL, XML file formats
Using Windows XP I have reset my default Itunes folder to c:\Itunes (too big for MY Documents\...). then copied everything from c:\itunes to an external hard drive. (I didn't realize the ITL file doesn't move and therefore I may not have a good backup of it.
Starting with a new computer, installed Itunes, then did a 'File, Add folder to library (with copy option)' from the external hard drive. This restored all my songs but I lost playlists, play count & my ratings.
I then did an import from library.xml, this restored the playlists, but still no play count or ratings.
My question is
1) IS there a better way to backup from Hard Drive to Hard drive? (Maybe all I really needed was the ITL file also?)
2) what is the format of the ITL file (I am a systems programmer, would appreciate a URL that has detail), what (hopefully free) utility would edit it?
3) a high level view of the XML file (I know XML)
4) Where is there complete documentation on Itunes ( a detailed description of export/import would be appreciated)

Here's my old standard answer for this topic - hope you can find something useful from it ...
iTunes Music Library.itl & iTunes Music Library.xml must stay where you found them.
To move your music files, use iTunes to do the work. Don't manually drag them around yourself.
• change the library location in iTunes Advanced Preferences tab, the new location does not need to exist; iTunes will create it. The new location should be empty of music files. This just sets the location for any new files brought into iTunes; it does not affect any existing files in the iTunes library.
• Select iTunes Advanced menu, Consolidate Library command. This copies all iTunes music files to the new library location. Playlist & Ratings data is preserved!
• After it completes (assuming no errors), quit iTunes and get rid of the original files from your previous location. The xml & itl files must remain in the old location, the library location setting does not control the location of these two critical files.

Hi, I'm trying to to export/import a XML file in the CP8, but it keeps telling me "Cannot import XML". To solve the problem I already tried following things:
1. Exported the file and then attempted to reimport the unedited file into a copy of the CP-project
2. Edited only a single character (using Notepad++) and once again tried to import the XML-file in the project.
3. Renamed the XML-file and the CP-project. Is there anyone who has solved this problem?

What XML encoding do I use to get APEX to import an XML file?
Environment:
APEX 3.1.1.00.09 on AIX 5.3
SQL Developer 1.5.5 on Windows XP Pro SP3
Oracle 10.2.0.2 EE on AIX 5.3
Trying to import an XML file generated from SQL Developer into a table using APEX Import utility.
I'm getting the error: ORA-19200: Invalid column specification
All I've done is exported the EMP table from SQL Developer (v. 1.5.5) into an XML file and then tried to load into an empty EMP table in the database (10.2.0.2) using APEX and the Data Load Utility.
I've tried creating the XML file using different encodings out of SQL Developer but so far an still getting the above error.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
-garyHi Scott
First of all I was successful in exporting and re-importing the EMP table to and from APEX.
When I exported the EMP table in XML format using SQL Developer, the resulting XML looked very different from the same data exported from APEX. My APEX exported XML looked just like yours. Here are the first 3 rows of the XML file exported from SQL Developer. I'm NOT an XML person so I can't judge whether or not this is valid XML but I can tell you that it doesn't import into an empty EMP table through APEX. I can control the encoding type in SQL Developer and have tried several different flavors.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

Maybe I should move this thread to the SQL Developer or XML forums.
If you have any other suggestions I would be most appreciative.

Using export/import to migrate data from 8i to 9i
We are trying to migrate all data from 8i database to 9i database. We plan to migrate the data using export/import utility so that we can have the current 8i database intact. And also the 8i and 9i database will reside on the same machine. Our 8i database size is around 300GB.
We plan to follow below steps :
Export data from 8i
Install 9i
Create tablespaces
Create schema and tables
create user (user used for exporting data)
Import data in 9i
Please let me know if below par file is correct for the export :
BUFFER=560000
COMPRESS=y
CONSISTENT=y
CONSTRAINTS=y
DIRECT=y
FEEDBACK=1000
FILE=dat1.dmp, dat2.dmp, dat3.dmp (more filenames here)

LOG=export.log
OBJECT_CONSISTENT=y
PARFILE=exp.par
ROWS=y
STATISTICS=ESTIMATE
TRIGGERS=y
TTS_FULL_CHECK=TRUE
Thanks,
Vinod BhansaliI recommend you to change some parameters and remove
others:
BUFFER=560000
COMPRESS=y -- This will increase better storage
structure ( It is good )
CONSISTENT=y
CONSTRAINTS=y
DIRECT=n -- if you set that parameter in yes you
can have problems with some objects
FEEDBACK=1000
FILE=dat1.dmp, dat2.dmp, dat3.dmp (more filenames here)
FILESIZE=2048GB
FULL=y
GRANTS=y -- this value is the default ( It is
not necesary )
INDEXES=y
LOG=export.log
OBJECT_CONSISTENT=y -- ( start the database in restrict
mode and do not set this param )
PARFILE=exp.par
ROWS=y
STATISTICS=ESTIMATE -- this value is the default ( It is
not necesary )
TRIGGERS=y -- this value is the default ( It is
not necesary )
TTS_FULL_CHECK=TRUE

CANNOT IMPORT FCP .XML FILE INTO PREMIERE PRO CS5
Hi,
Camera used:-Sony Pmw Ex3
Footage :- XDCAM sp(1440 * 1080i) PAL
Edited in :-final cut pro 7
Error :- failed to import .xml file into premiere pro cs5
I tried to import the .xml file into premiere CS5 ,it asked for the media files to relink .whn i linked the .mp4 files it showed the error messege "The selected file cannot be linked becouse it has 2 audio channel(s) and the clip was created with 1 audio channel(s).
then i tried to relink the .mov instead of .mp4 file (which i used in final cut pro on apple machine)i got the error "Codec missing or unavailable"
what should i do???..i almost done all the editing in final cut pro and i bought the adobe coz i thought i can finish all the pending FCP projects in Premier Pro..??What is the CODEC in your MOV file(s)? MOV is but a "wrapper," like AVI. This ARTICLE will give you some background. It could be that you just need the proper CODEC, or it could be that it is a Mac-only CODEC, and then you will need for the producer to Export in another CODEC, that is PC-compatible.
This ARTICLE will give you some background on CODEC's, in general.
Good luck,

How to export table contents in xml file format through SQL queries
hi,
i need to export the table data in to xml file format. i got it through the GUI what they given.
i'm using Oracle 10g XE.
but i need to send the table name from Java programs. so, how to call the export commands from programming languages through. is there any sql commands to export the table contents in xml format.
and one more problem is i created each transaction in two tables. for example if we have a transaction 'sales' , that will be saved in db as
sales1 table and sales2 table. here i maintained and ID field in sales1 as PK. and id as FK in sales2.
i get the combined data with this query,
select * from sales1 s1, sales2 s2 where s1.id=s2.id order by s1.id;
it given all the records, but i'm getting two ID fields (one from each table). how to avoid this. here i dont know how many fields will be there in each table. that will be known at runtime only.
the static information is sales1 have one ID field with PK and sales2 will have one ID filed with FK.
i need ur valuable suggestions.
regards
pavan.You can use DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML('your Query') for generating data in tables to XML format and you can use DBMS_XMLGEN.SETROWSETTAG to change the parent element name other wise it will give rowset as well as DBMS_XMLGEN.SETROWTAG for row name.
Check this otherwise XMLELEMENT and XMLFOREST function are also there to convert data in XML format. -

You will need a server script to receive the XML structure
and it depends on
the server scripting language how you obtain that data. Then
you can either
populate a database or write to a static file or even email
the XML data
received from Flash.
For a basic example, I have two links I use for students in
my Flash
courses:

You can also define views over multiple tables and perform insertions into the views.

1. Is there a way to import large XML files into HANA efficiently?
2. Will it process it node by node or the entire file at a time?
3. Are there any data services provided to do this?
This for a project use case i also have an requirement to process bulk XML files, suggest me to accomplish this taskHi Patrick,
I am addressing the similar issue. "Getting data from huge XMLs into Hana."
Using Odata services can we handle huge data (i.e create schema/load into Hana) On-the-fly ?
In my scenario,
I get a folder of different complex XML files which are to be loaded into Hana database.
Then I gotta transform & cleanse the data.
Can I use oData services to transform and cleanse the data ?
If so, how can I create oData services dynamically ?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Adobe not allowing import of XML file captured from Media Express through Black Magic capture card

TonyThank you,
Yes we've done that. They've confirmed a problem with the links/scripts on the note. The 10.1 and up version was not really 10.1 and up.
As they would not have a new version available in time for the move we needed to perform, we switched our approach to using dbms_redefinition instead.
Thanks for the reply,

Hi,
I am using Captivate 5.5 on Windows. I have an .swf file which needs to have an xml file with it in order for it to behave the way in which it was intended. The developer has said that the two files need to be included in the same folder.
I have no problem importing the swf file however I can't import the xml file which is called flashParams.xml. I have been editing the xml file in windows notepad and it is working perfectly outside Captivate. However when i try to import the xml, I get the message 'Cannot import XML'. I have been using File/Import/from xml to get the file loaded but no luck. I have also tried dragging it into the library but no luck here either.
Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong and how they would approach what surely must be a very simple task.
Thanks,
NickHi Rod,
Thanks for the reply.
I think what I could do is to launch the swf by clicking on a link in the Captivate session to an external url (it will be hosted on Moodle). The one problem I have is that when I do this in Captivate, the slide refuses to pause and moves onto the next slide. What I would like is for the user to be able to click on the link for the url and for the slide to pause until the user clicks on a next button to go to the next slide.

Maxl to export/import partition xml
I have searched thru the tech ref at all the Maxl commands and I'm not seeing what I'm looking for.
Is there a way to automate thru maxl (or esscmd) the exporting and importing of the xml file for partitions?
TIA,
RobertIs that the only option?
I've already seen the result of
display partition appname.dbname advanced
and it doesn't seem very friendly as an input file. Looks like much parsing and chopping would need to be done in order to get what I need as input to
create or replace partition command.
So the answer to my question about maxl for exporting/importing the xml version of partition is "no"?
