Can't debug procedures (and other minor quirks)

I'm using 1.2.1.3213 that bundles JDK1.5.0_06, and running it under RHELWSr3 from /home/jdl/tmp/sqldeveloper/ .
While editing a procedure, when I hit the debug icon & then hit OK in the Debug PL/SQL window, I don't get the "resume|step into|etc." toolbar in the Debugging-Log tab, nor the SmartData|Data|Watches set of tabs. It seems to do nothing, though this gets displayed back in
the shell where I started it:

Other minor quirks:
New connection: the button that should have a label of "Connect"
instead has "..."; only when I manually widen the window do I see
what the button label actually is.
This one is quite difficult to reproduce, but it's happened at least
4 times to me, so I thought I'd bring it up. I'm not in the habit
of saving passwords, so when I try to open a connection and I get
prompted for the Connection Information, occasionally the window
will not accept any input other than a mouse-click on the buttons:
it will not accept keyboard focus, so I can't enter a password.
Hitting the Cancel and selecting the connection again seems to work.
Maybe this is my old window mgr.
There's lots of disconcerting noise on startup, which may reveal the source of the debugger problem listed above:

How can I delete videos and other things uploads to icloud ?

How can I delete videos and other things uploads to icloud ?

If these are purhased movies they are not stored in your iCloud account and cannot be deleted. They are stored in the iTunes store. What you are seeing are links to your previously purchased movies, allowing you to redownload them.
If you don't want to see these in the Videos app, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turn Videos off under Show All.

Contact your "friend." Have him set up the MBP for your with your own account, settings and passwords. You are not running IOS 5.1. That is for iPhone and iPad users. What OS are you running? Did he give you the OS installer disks?

3GS: After upgrade to OS4 my BMW can not sync contacts and other informatio

Hello,
after the upgrade to OS4, my BMW can not sync the contacts, call information and other things via bluetooth. With OS 3.x, everything was fine.
How can I fix the problem? Reinstall OS3.x? Reboot my BMW
Thanks
Tom

Thanks, but as I've said I've tried all of that described in the reference you've kindly given. I don't have a local cache, and hence no PST files. The only one I have is an OST file which I have checked for integrity using the Microsoft supplied tools. I have switched to local PST (a suggestion given in another thread), and found that not to work either, so have switched back to non cached. I have even renamed the OST file to .BAK, and had it rebuilt. Again to no avail. There is a bona fide bug here. The http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306635 article does only say "This may be due to the format of the Outlook Personal Storage File (.PST)", so I guess as the operative word is "may", its not a guarantee of this being the solution.
Also I'm not syncing my contacts, I'm only doing the calendar nothing else.
Additionally, this used to work, so your hypothesis, of the "bad data", being synced in 7.6 and then not being able to be subsequently budged is a definate goer I think. But the trick would be to work out what the bad data is. I'm assuming the source of the bad data is the iphone, so I've deleted old calendar in outlook entries I know to have come from the iPhone, that has, as yet, been a fruitless exercise.
I do thank you though for your help though, I'll be scouring the internet for any tidbits of information which might help, and I'll post them back here if I find the solution, or anything which may help others unfortunate enough to be in this situation.

Can't sync photos and others

I've a problem with sync of photos and others. When I sync music or videos in iTunes (I've 7.5) it runs perfect, but when I want to sync photos, contacts or bookmarks it doesn't function. On iPod there is still Sync in Progress and in the iTunes there is Syncin "..." ...
Where's the bug?

Hi there. I'm having the same problem: my iPad won't import some photos from a folder, saying that they can't be read. They are all JPEGS and some photos taken at the same time have synched fine, but out of a folder with 200 photos, it only lets me synch 37. I'm synching albums created via Photoshop Elements 6, which has worked fine until now.
I've tried deleting all photos and re-synching, and have also deleted the iPod Photo Cache, but it hasn't made a difference.
The iPad auto-updated to the latest version of iTunes, so maybe that's what's causing it?
Any advice gratefully received!

@ Gypsygypsy,
You will need to have location services on for maps and the other apps that you require location settings for.

"screen shot can't be saved" and other permissions issues

After having my iMac at the Apple Store for four days solving a problem with "quit unexpectedly" issues with all Apple built-in Apps on OS X Yosemite, I got the machine back with those problems solved. It involved re-installing OS X and restore files from backup. I thought all was well; the Genius Bar dude showed me that it's fixed. He said it took so long because of bizarre permissions issues he'd never seen before.
Now that I've lugged this 40lb machine back home (after verifying the fixes in the store) I now find that several (other) functions don't work. When I try to do a screenshot, I get this message:"Your screen shot can't be saved. You don't have permission to save this file in the location where screen shots are stored." Message could have been more helpful; the "location" is the desktop. Pretty descriptive, though. Seems I can't save anything to the desktop.
I tried creatng a folder on the desktop. Got this message: "Finder wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this". Type password and new folder appears. Drag the new folder to the trash, get same message..
I tried copying a file from a network drive to the desktop. I get this dialog: "Modifying Desktop requires and administrator name and password. I clicked "authenticate" and after a 3 minute delay (with "Preparing.." ) I get this dialog; "Finder wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this". I type the password and the file appeared on the desktop. Before the work at the Apple Store, this never happened. BTW I have only one user account and it's marked "Allow user to administer this computer". Thinking something might be goofy with the pw, I changed it (took 3 minutes to do, oddly) and rebooted. No joy. Same thing happens when I try to drag something from the desktop to the trash. Long time "moving" message followed by having to provide and admin pw.
I tried to save a Safari attachment to the Downloads folder and got this message: "Safari could not download the file xxxxx because there is not enough free disk space". Since I have more than 600GB of available space, I think the message is wrong and that it's really a permission issue with the Downloads folder.
Tried to reset the password again. Click to unlock the Users & Groups panel, get "System Preferences is trying to unlock Users & Groups preferences. Type your password to allow this".
All this tells me that somehow Yosemite is in "nag" mode (reminiscent of Windows Vista.
Any ideas?

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Transfer speed and other minor bits

First off - I love my iPod (40g Colour) and despite my regular bouts of impatience when updated, loading etc I am very happy with the thing. I even bought my wife a shuffle and she likes that for when she's at the gym. I found the software/hardware to be very forgiving.
However I thought I'd post a query to see if anybody had any ideas on my minor problems.
1) When we loaded my wife's shuffle for he first time we had problems with the USB 2 convection. PC keeps saying "this item can run faster connect to a USB2 ....." but it is connected to a USB 2 socket. Now everytime I attach either iPod the same warning comes on (except if I connect before starting!). I know its a USB 2 because a new board was fitted a while ago and my 40g will synch and charge on the connection.
2) Slow transfer. I recently loaded iTunes 5.0 which didn't work for me (see 3). So I wiped it and loaded a copy of 4.9 (thanks to filehippo). Im up and running again but had to re-synch my iPod to iTunes. The tranfer rate is about 500 tracks per hour so to do the 8500 that my iPod takes needs 17 hours. When its done I should'nt need to do it agin for a while but could I speed things up a bit?
3)Should I go to iTunes 5.0.1? 5.0 loaded on my PC fine without all teh problems that have filled these oages recently but when in 5.0 I connected either iPod (shuffle or 40G I got an error somthing like "Ipod not recognised re-intall iTunes". I know some other people had a similar problem. iTunes 4.9 is working fine but is it safe for me to try 5.0.1 yet?
Sorry to go on a bit but I know from watching these forums recently there are some very knowledgeable and helpful people out there so I hope you don't mind my request.

I've had some news - most of it good. I got fed up with the transfer speed so I took my box into my local store to get it checked out. No visible fault on my USB 2.0! I know it happens but they couldn't replicate it so I went home. Plugged all my stuff in except USB devices. Plugged in my iPod and it worked. I was now thinking about power requirements etc. Plugged in my USB modem and the iPod still updated at USB 2.0 speed. Next I tried my wife's shuffle - so far so good. I then plugged everything in and the iPod defaulted back to USB 1.1!
Tried the shuffle in the spare USB2.0 socket and it worked. Plugged my iPod in and that worked - Now I knew what the problem was - I only have 3 USB 2.0 sockets (5 USB1.1)and two had faulted.
Next step will be a new card with a fire wire socket! Happy Days - although I still cant get an extension cord to work with my iPod.
While I was on a roll I took the bull by the horns and loaded iTunes 6.0. Works like a dream although it is a bit slower than 4.9 - probably considerably bigger but it works!!
My turn to be the lucky one this week!!! Maybe your turn next.

Missing files using the same library on two different macs and other minor problems

Hi everybody,
I'm working on a long documentary and I'm new to FCPX (coming from Avid NC and Edius)...I have and external HD where I stored all the media I'm working with (about 1/2T - 1000 clips)...The library (about 100gb) is stored on the internal drive of my iMac and into the iCloud.
Yesterday, I received my new MacBook and today I tried to work on it. I followed this steps: I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with, I put it on the same folder (movies) it was stored on my iMac and I connected my external HD with all the media...Results? All the clips where gone and the red missing file warning was all over the place.
FIRST QUESTION: How can I work on both computer overcoming this missing files problem? I know I should have put the library on the same external drive but It was a move aiming to
SUB QUESTION 1:
I went back to my iMac and everything worked fine except for a warning about one of my events (the exclamation point) as you can see from this pic:
I tried to relink the file...but no files to be linked popped up in the relink file window....HOW CAN I KNOW what's wrong in that event in order to fix it?
SUB QUESTION 2:
I checked the Library info and - as you can see in the pic below - there are 43mb of media in my internal HD...is this maybe the problem preventing me from working on different macs? I tried to consolidate everything to the external HD but still the 43mb thing persist in being on the internal HD. How can I find where exactly it is located? How can I move it to the external HD given that the consolidate option isn't working?
Thank you in advance for your help

1) Don't know why this is happening. It may have something to do with
I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with
I'm not clear what procedure you're using here. Using a cloud for storage might change some file tags. Generally users I think keep the library on the same drive as the media, keeping the library backups on the system. There is no real benefit in keeping the media in a separate location. Often users will keep the library in the same folder as the media. It makes backing up using tools like Carbon Copy Cloner very efficient.
1a) This can be difficult to find as there sometimes is no obvious indicator. It might be a missing element in a compound clip, a missing or altered layer in a graphics file, a missing font, a missing effect. These will show up inside the item involved, but may not be apparent in the browser. A missing transition for instance will not be seen until you skim over the project or try to export it.
2) The 43 MB is a small amount of optimized media. This never prevents relinking. The library is always looking for original media, or proxy media if you're in proxy playback. It never looks for optimized media. If it has it, it uses it, if it doesn't, it uses the original media. If you are using original/optimized playback, you must have the original files. The optimized files are not enough.

Can't debug procedures (and other minor quirks)
