Can ODBC v7.3 and 8.1.6 coexhist?
I am supporting an application written in Oracle Power Objects. We have recently updated the users' machines from Windows 95 using an Oracle 7.3.4 client to Windows NT using an Oracle 8.1.6. client. We were connecting straight to oracle using a file called ora7232.pod, but that does not work on NT. We changed the code to use ODBC instead and it does connect and return information. Unfortunately, the application is still behaving weird, and I think it may be related to using the Oracle 8.1.6 ODBC driver.
My question for you is how can I install the ODBC driver for 7.3.4 when I have the universal installer for 8.1.6? It won't let me get to any of the Older versions and it won't allow their install scripts to run. Can the two versions of ODBC peacefully coexhist on the same workstation?
Thanks
Assuming memory serves me, Oracle 8 was the first release to support the concept of multiple homes. Assuming this is the case, I cannot imagine that this is a supported configuration. I doubt anyone has tested this setup-- it may work, but it may not. If you are seeing 'funny behavior', this would be one possibile cause.
That said, what happens when you try to install the v7 driver with your Oracle7 installer (since you write you can use both). Are you trying to install the v7 driver into your 8.1.6 home?

Can odbc gateway be installed with oracle xe?
I would like to access other databases through oracle XE. Can ODBC gateway be used to accomplish this? I am hoping to connect to Dbase, Access and QuickBooks if anyone has any experience with those particular DBs
user557610 wrote:
trying to set up the various tnsname, listener...Basic config items are listener (static "sid" for the gateway), gateway (pointing out odbc source, etc.) and the "3rd party" odbc driver config. Then you create a db link on top, for odbc source access.
Any particularly helpful documents would be appreciatedThis should be helpful in putting the pieces together:

Problem Description:
ODBC functions SQLExecDirectW and SQLExecute functions return error:”DIAG [22001] [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0]String data, right
truncation (0) “. When we enable tracing in the ODBC administrator, in the SQL.log we see that values for the arguments: ColumnSize, BufferLength, and StrLen_or_IndPtr of ODBC function SQLBindParameter are not being displayed.
Environment Used:
OS: Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 Edition.
Complier: Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 SP1 for x64.
Database: Microsoft SQL Server 2008
MDAC: Microsoft Data Access Components SDK 2.8
Note: This problem is seen only in our 64bit application. However, in 32bit
SQLExecDirectW and SQLExecute functions return successfully.
As we could not find the values of 6<sup>th</sup>, 9<sup>th</sup> and 10<sup>th</sup> arguments(ColumnSize,
BufferLength, and StrLen_or_IndPtr) passed to
SQLBindParameter in the ODBC traces for 64bit, we are not sure whether the values for the above mentioned arguments are received correctly by SQLBindParameter or not. This information would help us to debug further. So, could you please let us know why
these values are not displayed.
1)Here is the extract of the SQL.log file for 32bit where the values for SQLULEN , SQLLEN and SQLLEN* are displayed properly:
PR0CNFG 1028-15f0 ENTER SQLBindParameter
HSTMT 0x006FBDD8

SQLLEN SQLLEN SQLLEN *Hi Nalsr,
From my research, I found:
"[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]String
data right truncation" error may be returned from a call to
SQLBindParameter if the size of the string parameter being used is greater than the size of the column being compared to. In other words if the
string size of the <expression> to the left of the <comparison_operator> is less than the
string size of the <expression> to the
right, ODBC may return this error.
The resolution is to make the string size of the <expression> to the
right of the <comparison_operator> less than or equal to the
string size of the <expression> on the left.
It is difficult to track down this type of problem when third party development applications are being used. ODBC Trace can be used to help determine if this problem is occuring.
Here is an example where the customer has submitted a query "select count(*) from type1 where type1 = ?", type1 is varchar(5) and the
data type being passed by the application is char[9].
Here is the relevant portion of the trace. The following information from the "exit" of SQLDescribeParam
SWORD * 0x0095e898 (12)
UDWORD * 0x0095e880 (5)
Maps to the following with the actual value in parenthesis - SQL_VARCHAR Size 5:
SQLSMALLINT *DataTypePtr
SQLUINTEGER *ParameterSizePtr
The "exit" value from SQLBindParameter provides the following
information:
SWORD 1 <SQL_PARAM_INPUT>
SWORD 1 <SQL_C_CHAR>
SQL Data Type SWORD 12 <SQL_VARCHAR>
Parameter Size UDWORD 5
SWORD 0
Value PTR 0x0181c188
Value Buffer Size SDWORD 5
String Length SDWORD * 0x0181c103 (9)
The string length parameter is the length of the
string being bound to the parameter, in this instance there is a size mismatch which results in the SQLError and the SQLErrorW with the message "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server
Driver]String data
right truncation" .
Hope this could be helpful.

I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine. Yesterday I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion. Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?
Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

Computer is prob. 5 yrs old, still runs great, works well with Yosemite, just HDD if full, tried cleaning it up, but only get about 8 GB left. Want to change out for a SSD 1 TB or 960 , leaning toward Crucial drive, can I do this and replace my old drive. Do not really want to give up my DVD slot to a HDD, would rather just replace the current Hard drive with a SSD? Any thoughts, can I do this myself. I have computer connected to time capsule and could use that to reinstall onto new SSD??
Yes. Any 2.5" notebook sized SSD can be used. If your Time Capsule has a full system backup, then you can restore from it. You could put your old HDD into an external enclosure and boot from it. Then clone the HDD to the newly install SSD after formatting it.

I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have. Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording? If so, how? Step by step needed. Thank you for your time.
Did you remove Quicktime X?
On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above. -

Can't see original and edited Pic in My Catalogue
I started using Photoshop Album Starter Edition yesterday. And I'm pretty sure that when I edited a picture, the catalog would insert the edited version right next to the original.
Now, I cannot see both the original and the edited version. I see in the catalogue only originals I have not edited and the edited versions of all the others.
In Windows Explorer it is clear that the original picture is there. Also, I can click on it and open with Starter Edition (Viewer), but that only lets me see a slide show version - no editing.
I've tried reconnecting and finding (using menus and buttons) and I get an error message that the file(s) is/are already in the catalogue.
The Show All option is on in the catalogue, BTW, and I have tried this on two different computers with separate downloads of APA SE (downloaded at separate times) with the same result
If I change the filename slightly - e.g. file001.jpg => file001a.jpg, then I can import the picture, but renaming all the files would be a burdensome process.
How can I view and edit both the original versions and the edited versions right next to each other?
Thanks!Thanks for the prompt reply. I'm glad I wasn't going crazy, and there's a reason the originals weren't viewable. If I understand you correctly, the original can come back into view in PSA SE if I choose to "revert."
Question:
Does "Revert" mean that (1) the edited image disappears altogether - i.e., is deleted - or (2) the image doesn't show up in PSA SE's catalog any more, but still exists physically on the drive?
As to why I'm trying to fight PSA's help: Sometimes I just want to see the original and the edited versions to see if I really prefer the edited version better, or want to try different editing options. I know you can do this side by side in the "before & after," but the images there are not very large.
And I guess you're right about duplicating if I want to do different things with the same image, but that requires planning ahead, a trait which I ....
So, Question:
Is there some way to fight back and win, i.e., get the catalog to show both the originals and edits, other than individually renaming each original file and importing it again?
If not, then I'll have to look at the images side by side in windows explorer or do the duplicate option.
Thanks again!

I bought my iMac from someone. Everything was changed over to my name however when I try to update programs it only shows the old users apple ID and I can't update. How do I change this so I can update the applications and have everything fully under me?
The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
1. You don't own another Mac.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
2. You do own another Mac.
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
3. Other issues
If you see a lock screen when trying to boot from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information. -

How can I sync contacts and calendar via iTunes 11.1.8 to iOS 3.1.3 (iPhone 1)?
I am proud owner of an iPhone 1 and it still works fine, but runs on iOS 3.1.3. I updated my 2 year old iMac to Mac OS X (10.9) and I am now using iTunes 11.1.8. Actually, I bought my iMac because I was so enthusiastic to see how smooth syncing with my iPhone worked. Now, since OS X, I can not sync calendar and contacts anymore. I had to reset my iPhone and start from scratch, so contacts and calendar are empty.
Sync via iTunes does not work anymore because Apple deleted the direct sync function and my iPhone's iOS does not support iCloud.
Sync via CalDav does not work, beause for some reason my iCloud account is not approved when trying to create it in mail/calendar/contacts (I tried several times, crosschecked, all data appear correct to me and work in the browser access).
Sync via Google does not work, because obviously, my iOS does not support their calendar and contacts function.
Sync via Windows PC might work, but I would have to set one up from scratch.
Downgrading to iTunes 10.7 failed, because OS X didn't allow it. Downgrading the Mac OS might be an option, but I am already running e.g. Books and using it a lot.
Any help is welcome.
Iris
P.S.: I still remember Steve Jobs saying "it simply works!"Thank you Meta, but I could not get the calendar and contact sync with Gmail to work. Apple support already suggested to use Google or a Windows PC. Maybe I should actually reset and try my old Windows PC. Seriously, ... can this be the solution after a Mac OS update for pure Apple users?
