  • Hi there. My iPod Nano was stolen from my car today. I do know the serial number of this stolen device. Is there any way that Apple can block another user from connecting this stolen device to iTunes?

    Hi there. My iPod Nano was stolen from my car today. I do know the serial number of this stolen device. Is there any way that Apple can block another user from connecting this stolen device to iTunes? Also, if another user was to attempt to connect this stolen device to iTunes, would Apple be able to inform of the username of this person in order that I could then pass this information to the police?

    No. Apple can do nothing to help. Sorry.

  • Laptop blocks another computer from connecting router.

    HiI'll appreciate your help with my problem very much: in my house there is one computer that's connected to the home router with cable, and other devices that are connected via WiFi, including my  laptop (ThinkPad E540).  Whenever I connect to the router with my laptop it messes with the main computer connection (the one that's connected directly) Either it stops internet connection completely, or it slows it down to a point where it's impossible to use. This problem is only between my laptop and the other computer mentioned, All other devices in the house (computers, smartphones) don't block anything and are not blocked by me. As I mentioned, they are all connected via WiFi. The problem starts immediately when I connect with my laptop, and stops once I disconnect, So I'm sure my laptop is what causing the problem. It's been like that ever since I bought it. This problem is very very annoying, as many people use the computer that's blocked and I can't use my computer freely. I really hope you can help me. Thank you.  [I don't speak English fluently, so please forgive me for any mistakes]

  • Can i block my phone from connecting to a network extender?

    Hi everyone. One of my neighbors has recently installed a network extender. It seems that i am on the fringe of its coverage an now 99% of my calls and my friends calls drop after 1-2 seconds. When i place a call or answer i get the double beep then it said call failed. This is very annoying as i had coverage in my house. I now use my land line more than ever because my cellphone has become useless.
    I called Verizon and they said that my only option was to buy my own extender for 299.. a joke. If this continues i may just have to cancel my account and choose another provider.

    It is like a mini cell tower that uses your existing high speed Internetcconnection to improve the coverage in your home.

  • Help blocking smart devices from using VPN

    Hello,
    I am looking for a solution to block smart devices from connecting to our network via VPN. Our current VPN solution is ASA5520 and we are using Cisco ACS for user authentication. We use Cisco VPN client only, no anyconnect or SSL VPN.
    Managment is looking for a way we can stop smart devices from using VPN clients to connect and only allow laptops/desktops to connect.
    Does anyone have a way we can do this via ACS or another method?

    Ok I will try it again but according to this documentation the type must match what is displayed in the show vpn-sessiondb remote, when I do that command all I see is type ipsec....nothing about iOS or client version numbers.:
    version
    version Identifies the device version via free-form strings, for example 7.0. A string
    must match exactly its appearance in the show vpn-sessiondb remotedisplay, except that you can use the * character as a wildcard.

  • Exmpl of Servlet connect with ORacle

    Hi folks,
    Can anyone send me example of Java Servlet connectivity with Oracle.
    i m not able to connect servlet with oracle.
    u guys can reply me on [email protected]
    thanks
    dal hit

    No.
    The code for connecting to Oracle from a Servlet is no different from connecting to Oracle from any other Java application. So tell you what, you show us what you've tried and the error message(s) and we'll help you debug it.
    99.999% of the time it's a failure to put the driver Jar file into the classpath, the specifics of which vary from application server to application server. Which one are you using?
    u guys can reply me on [email protected]
    We can, but we won't. This is not your personal bugfixing service. Pay if you want that kind of help. If you want it for free, do it through the forums or go away.
    Probably you'll never read this response, but that's your problem not mine.

  • Need to connect to upgraded Oracle EBS R12 version from R11. The current ODI set up is pointing to R11, Can i use the same connection to point to R12? Please hele experts..

    Need to connect to upgraded Oracle EBS R12 version from R11. The current ODI set up is pointing to R11, Can i use the same connection to point to R12? Please hele experts...
    Rp

    1. in physical connections part can i use the same work schema
    2. Can i use same contexts created or do i need to create everything as new and then try?
    Thanks,
    Rp.
    Hi,
    As you mentioned that you just upgraded the database, so the data is same and schema is same you can connect with the same work schema.
    Yes, you can use the same contexts , but need to do Reverse Engineering for your new database.
    And about data server, i think you also have no need to create new data server, if hostname,sid and port etc are same as these were with R11(consult with your DBAs regarding it)

  • How to connect to Oracle 8i Personal Edition from another app like TOAD?

    I downloaded Oracle 8.1.7 Personal Edition; and the download went like a breeze.
    I installed Oracle and can connect to the database using SQL*Plus without specifying Host Name.
    I am very much familiar with TOAD (Tool for Oracle Application Developer). But I am unable to connect to Oracle 8.1.7 Personal Edition database from TOAD. I get a ORA-12541: TNS:no listener error when I give the global database name as the database name.
    Can anybody help me? Your help will be appreciated very much.

    SQL*PLus does not use the listener to connect to Oracle8i Personal Edition. That is why you are able to connect with SQL*Plus and not TOAD when the listener is not started.

  • Problems with connection from PHP to Oracle DB

    Hello,
    I have a Win2k3 Server with IIS 6.0 and PHP 5.1.2. and an Oracle Client 9i installed.
    Recently I tried to connect via PHP to the DB but it failed with the following message:
    "Warning: ocilogon() [function.ocilogon]: OCIEnvInit() failed. There is something wrong with your system - please check that ORACLE_HOME is set and points to the right directory in ...\php-skript\test\funk_test.php on line 54"
    So I started looking in the internet for help and found a lot, but nothing that solved my problem. I tried everything (I think):
    * Oracle Client 9i regular Client- environment vars in all variations
    * Oracle Client 10g Instant Client- all variations again
    * I tried to delete all spaces in the "tns.ora" after a hint in another PHP-forum
    * I looked in this forum and found some hints
    BUT: Nothing helped me to solve my problem.
    So I changed my PHP-version from 5.1.2 to 5.0.4 and I got a different failure:
    "[26-Apr-2006 17:58:15] PHP Warning: ocilogon() [<a href='function.ocilogon'>function.ocilogon</a>]: _oci_open_server: ˜Õ‚ in ...\php-skript\test\funk_test.php on line 56"
    This message is really strange, because it contains no information about the failure.
    Has ANYONE another hint for me?? I really don't know what I should do.

    Because it's IIS, I set the env vars manually. That means --> my computer/.../advanced/environment vars/etc.
    After every change, I rebootet the IIS Service. Problem consists.
    Let's have a look, if your links could help...
    ########## EDIT ##########
    Ok, your links WERE INDEED REALLY helpful!
    My problems were caused by missing access-rights.
    How to solve this problem:
    * reinstall your Oracle-client
    * inet-user needs now access rights for
    + "oracle"- folder
    + "oracle\bin"- folder
    + "tnsnames.ora"- file
    * set environment vars
    + NLS_LANG = AMERICAN
    + ORACLE_HOME = "C:\oracle\ora92"
    + TNS_ADMIN = "C:\oracle\ora92\network\ADMIN"
    * restart IIS
    Now it should work!!! THX for your help!

    It is pointless, and just adds to the confusion, to name your listener anything other than the default name of LISTENER

          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
    Client requests to 'localhost' (or its ip address of 127.0.0.1) never leave the client machine.  Hence, any listener configured for that address will never receive a request from any other machine.

    You've thrown out a huge amount of detailed data, but showing a variety of errors, and combinations.  Overall, I get the impression you are confusing remote vs. local connections.  Please read the following, then come back and let's focus on one error at a time.

  • Not able to connect to Oracle EBS from host Windows 7

    Hi, I have installed oracle EBS version 12.1.1 (32 bit) on OEL ver 6.3 (32 bit). I have installed Linux on Oracle VM virtualbox ver 4.1.16.
    I am having host OS as Windows 7 home on my laptop.
    While setting up the Network in Oracle VM virtualbox, I have set "attached to" as 'Host Only Adapter'.
    I am able to connect to oracle EBS from the client server(linux) using Firefox browser. Both the services(database, Application) are starting & stopping without any problem.
    I have entered following setting in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file.
    192.168.56.101 linux.server
    IP address of Linux OS is 192.168.56.101
    Please help in resolving the issue.
    Thanks!

    I am getting error as "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" on IE ver 9, when accessing from host machine. On Firefox (ver 12), the error is coming as "The connection has timed out. The server at linux.server is taking too long to respond."
    The firewall on the server has been disabled already.
    I am not able to ping the server IP address or hostname.domainname from client. Following error comes while pinging -

  • ORA-12154 Connection error from HFM to Oracle Database

    Hi,
    I am trying to configure Hyperion HFM but can write to HFM database.
    The implementation architecture:
    Hyperion 11.1.2.2 (with all the requiered patches for HFM, FDM, Shared Services, Workspace and Oracle Application Development)
    Server 1:
    Windows Server 2008 x64
    Installed products: Foundation (EPMA, CalcManager), BI, HFM web components and ADM driver
    Configured products: Foundation(EPMA, CalcManager), BI.
    Database Client: 11gR2 x64
    Server 2:
    Windows Server 2008 x64
    Installed products: HFM, FDQM
    Configured Products: FDQM, HFM
    Database Client: 11gR2 x32, 11gR2 x64 (x32 version installed first)
    Server 3:
    Database: Oracle 11.2.0.2
    All the products from server 1 are working fine, FDQM (server 2) is also working fine, but, when I try to do any action related with HFM database the system fails.
    I have tested the connection is these scenarios:
    1. SQLdeveloper: successfull!, I can create tables, views, etc. Double checking the user privileges it has all the required.
    2. tnsping: successfull!
    3. HFMApplicationCopy utility: Successfull using UDL file and writing the connection parameters.
    4. EPM System Configurator: the configurator successfully validates the database connection information, but does not create the tables on the database. No errors in the configtool log.
    5. EPM Diagnostic Tool: fails with this error message:
    ------------STARTING VALIDATION SCRIPTS----------

    Hi,
    I Have solved one of my problems, the one that keep HFM from connecting to the Oracle database.
    I just change the TNSNAMES.ORA, like this:
    Initial tnsnames.ora
    PRUEBA.WORLD=
    +(DESCRIPTION_LIST =+
    +(DESCRIPTION =+
    +(LOAD_BALANACE = ON)+
    +(FAILOVER = ON)+
    +(ADDRESS_LIST =+
    +(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <server_name>)(PORT = <port>))+
    +)+
    +(CONNECT_DATA =+
    +(SERVICE_NAME = <service_name>)+
    +)+
    +)+
    +)+
    Modified tnsnames.ora
    PRUEBA.WORLD=
    +(DESCRIPTION =+
    +(LOAD_BALANACE = ON)+
    +(FAILOVER = ON)+
    +(ADDRESS_LIST =+
    +(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <server_name>)(PORT = <port>))+
    +)+
    +(CONNECT_DATA =+
    +(SERVICE_NAME = <service_name>)+
    +)+
    +)+
    I Just delete the line "+(DESCRIPTION_LIST =+" and its corresponding closing parenthesis, I did this cause in the configuration utility log I saw this line:
    +TNS parsing: Entry: DESCRIPTION_LIST [[Address: Protocol:(TCP) Host:(<server_name>) Port:(1521) SID:(<service_name>)]]+
    So, if the applications were trying to connect to connection descriptor DESCRIPTION_LIST, the driver could not recognize DESCRIPTION_LIST as a valid one.
    There is a lot going on behind the scenes when you work with Oracle Database as the repository, maybe there is some other way to address this issue, but it worked for me, hope it can help you too.

  • Connection issue from sqldeveloper to Oracle Database 10g

    I have installed Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 on my machine having platform Windows vista
    Now i have install sqldeveloper but i am not able to connect to oracle databse.
    GETTING AN ERROR Network adapter could not make it connection
    after that i have tried to check listners.ora through tnsping orcl getting following result
    C:\Users\Kailas>tnsping orcl
    TNS Ping Utility for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production on 08-APR-2

    Used parameter files:

    Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
    Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = kailasLa
    pi)(PORT = 1521)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)))
    TNS-12541: TNS:no listener
    Please let me know What should i do i want to start my practice sessions on sqldeveloper
    I am new in Oracle pl/sql development
    Please guide me on this.........................

    SQLDeveloper 3.0 production is supplied with the thin driver 11.2.0.2
    it needs 11.2.0.2 version to use thick which has a few additional features over thin.
    To avoid confusion with other Oracle software you can set the ORACLE_HOME in the session you start sqldeveloper in as described below:
    The version mismatch is often because SQLDeveloper is trying to use the 'thick' driver and 11.2.0.2 thick is not available,
    try
    thin by:
    1/(uncheck Tools->preferences->Datababae->advanced->use OCI/thick driver, and
    2/If necessary, set ORACLE_HOME for your cmd.exe session where sqldev is started from to where sqldeveloper is where %ORACLE_HOME%\jdbc\lib exists, (so SQLDeveloper does not try your existing ORACLE_HOME) and
    3/If using connection type TNS, use Connection Type TNS -> Network Alias.
    4/You may need to set Tools->preferences->Datababase->advanced->Tnsname directory to the directory containing tnsnames.ora
