Discoverer Desktop and Administrator: which is the next step?

Hello everybody, i would like to ask you some help about understanding the following issue:
I noticed that Discoverer Desktop and administrator are being treated like obsolete.
Do they have a direct successor? I mean, is there any new product that has more or less the same functionality and the same philosophy?
I'm looking at the Business intelligence suite but it seems to be a bit much wide for my scope.
Thank you all in advance.

So, in a way you are saying that discoverer is still better than any other oracle products including discoverer plus. I mean, discoverer adm and desktop are useful for me since
they are standalone application and the understructure is quite light ( for example you don't need any application server behind like plus does but just an EUL).
And i'm agree with your parallel matching with sqlplus situation. I still prefer doing something with sqlplus since is more reliable and quick than sqldeveloper. But i cannot say that
discoverer desktop is the most reliable tool for reporting. In 6 months i used i found out many bugs and many strange behaviors that made me a bit crazy about this tool. I also tried discoverer plus but i found it extremely slow and unreliable. The level of productivity is something ugly, not just slow. So far indeed desktop seems to be the fastest and most reliable solution for a "quick" reporting development.
I would like to ask you another question: has the new hyperion platform some reporting tool like discoverer?
I mean if discoverer is the reporting tool for Relational OLAP what about the reporting for Multidimensional OLAP?
Thanks again.
Best regards

  • I have made and submitted iphone webapp, but don't know what is its status. How can I know its status? And what should be the next step

    I have submitted the webapp which is shown here : https://developer.apple.com/submission/iphone/manage_subs.php
    But now I don't know the next step. Please somebody let me know.
    Thanks.

    Wait for the blurb and link to show up on Apple's site. Be sure it is ready on yours.

  • Discoverer Desktop and Discoverer Plus Data

    Hi Everyone
    I have a report when I run in Desktop I can see the data, but when I run in Plus I cannot see any data.
    Any ideas what might cause this problem to occur?
    Discoverer version is 10.1.2.3

    Hi,
    If your report was developed in Desktop then it should work fine in Plus. Although Plus does not support subqueries I doubt that is the problem. As Gareth said it is most likely it is a NLS language problem. Create a workbook which contains the userenv('LANG') to check that it returns US in both desktop and plus.
    If the NLS language is not the problem then post details of your custom query as there are differences between Plus and Desktop which could cause this problem.

  • Installer of Desktop and Administrator 11g  for x64

    Anybody knows if there are any plans to release an x64 installer for Discoverer Desktop and Discoverer Administrator(11g).
    Edited by: user5629916 on 30-jun-2010 9:40

    Hi
    I have done some more investigation on your behalf and would like to point you to Oracle Support note *233047.1*. Here's the link to the website: https://support.oracle.com/CSP/ui/flash.html
    In there are several useful questions and answers about Discoverer. The one that will be of interest in your situation is this one:
    Q: Are Discoverer 11g Administrator and Desktop certified to install on 64-bit Windows clients?
    A: No, at the time of this posting, the certification spreadsheet specifically only lists 32-bit Windows clients (XP, Vista, 7). At this time certification with Windows 64-bit client operating systems is being evaluated for a future patch set, post patchset 3. This document will be updated when the certification is announced.
    If you try to install on Windows 64-bit operating systems, you will receive a warning like this when you run setup.exe from the /Disk1 directory.
    You may workaround this by installing from ..\Disk1\install\win32 and running setup.exe from there; however, as stated at this point it is specifically not certified on 64bit Windows client operating systems; therefore, we cannot accept Service Requests for functional issues.
    By the way, I did have one of my clients only yesterday successfully install Desktop and Administrator 11g onto Windows 7 64 bit. Here is one of their comments: I am running on Windows 7 64 bit.  The 11.1.1.3.0 has both 32 bit and 64 bit available. It seems if you are running on 32 bit you would choose XP mode and the 64 bit by default compatible with Vista
    Best wishes

  • Using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog

    I have a site which was created in Adobe Muse and is hosted on Business Catalyst.
    I have created both a desktop and a phone versions of the site.
    I  want to know how I can integrate the blogs that I  currently have on the desktop site with the phone version that I just did, using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog. This is in order to ensure that visitors to the blogs on the website are directed to the templates that render correctly for the devices they are using.
    My current approach has been to create both a desktop and phone versions of the blogs. The problem with this however, is that the dates are different and the comments are separated between the two blog versions!
    I  have also tried enabling mobile templates in BC, but still couldn't find a way to specify the mobile versions of the templates for the same blog?
    To recap my problem, I basically  need a solution where the same blog uses different templates for desktop and mobile (both templates use different navigation headings and menu styles)
    Thanks.

    There can be few reason for this, including page contents links or contents used in phone/tablet version.
    Please provide the site url , also try to publish the site as a trial site in Business Catalyst with all layouts which would help to isolate the issue.
    Thanks,
    Sanjit

    Try the excellent shareware application, Graphic Converter. In addition there are many very good photo editing programs for the Mac. Look for them all at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • I am still running OS x 10.5.8 what is the next step up and the easiest way to get it. Does the Genius bar have the capability to get me to the most recent software if I take my Imac in

    iMac G5 - you are at the end of the line, though you may be able to upgrade your RAM, or hard drive.
    iMac CoreSolo, CoreDuo - you can upgrade to 1 GB of RAM or 2 GB of RAM and get up to 10.6.8.
    iMac Core2Duo - you can upgrade to 2 GB of RAM or more and get up to 10.7.2.
    Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to determine which Mac model you have.
    Here's what you have to watch out for on 10.6 to 10.6.8.
    Here's what you need to watch out for on 10.7 to 10.7.2.
    Some stores may not have 10.6 installer CD available, or may not have 10.7 Flash drive available.  For those you have to make the purchase from elsewhere,
    and bring it in to the store with you.  http://www.apple.com/retail has phone numbers for all their stores, and extension 5 often will get you a real person at the store, though if yuo don't get it, you might try a different extension.

    If you mean that it won't boot up, then assuming that the battery isn't empty (it can take about 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • How to fix when a song stops in the middle and then goes to the next song

    How do I fix this problem

    I solved a similar issue, where some songs in my itunes library would play to some random point and then skip to the next song. It started when I replaced my computer, so I copied over my library to my new computer and went through installing and importing on my new machine. When I noticed this behavior for random songs, here's what I found.
    The affected files were .m4p files I'd purchased from the itunes store. This had nothing to do with activating them with my Apple account, which I did. The easiest way I found to identify the affected files was to view all your music in itunes, right click on any of the column headers, and select 'kind' so that column shows. Then order your music by the 'kind' column, and scroll down until you reach the songs where kind = 'Protected AAC audio file' (not to be confused with Purchased AAC audio file, which were unaffected in my case). Highlight just those 'Protected AAC audio file' songs, copy them, and paste them in some temporary directory. Back in itunes, now delete these hightlighted songs (I chose to keep the files rather than permanently delete them, but I think either would work).
    Before adding these songs back to your library, if you want them pulled into your library directory rather than left in temp, make sure in Edit > Preferences > Advanced > check off Copy files to itunes media folder when adding to library.
    Then in itunes, click File > Add file to library > browse to your temp directory > select all files > and click Open to add these files back to your library. After that, all my previously disfunctional files exhibited normal playback.
    I hope you find this before you waste many hours on this like I did.
    Good Luck, A.

  • I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???

    I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???

    That is Pages for iPad v2.0, which Pages '09 v4.3 can't read.
    You need to either stick with the older version of Pages on the iPad or get Pages 5 for the Mac which is only available if you are running OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
    Unfortunately that is not the end of your woes because Apple has made iCloud convert the files to Pages 5 now, and Pages 5 has over 90 features deleted on top of doing a shocking job of converting older Pages files.

  • I am new to LR and have it set up on a Mac desktop and laptop.  On the laptop, the Basic function under Develop simply disappeared.  I am lost.  Help.

    Question:  I am new to LR and have it set up on a Mac desktop and laptop.  On the laptop, the Basic function under Develop simply disappeared.  I am lost.  Help.

    It's a common issue. The Basic panel is merely hidden.
    Hiding/unhiding panels is actually a feature of Lightroom but it is unintuitive - few people know it exists - so most newcomers are thrown when a panel somehow gets hidden.
    Right-click anywhere in the right hand side panel area and a context menu will appear.
    Click the Basic option to make the Basic panel re-appear.

    I just downloaded a song and it only plays the first 50 seconds and then moves to the next song in the list. How can I get it to play the rest of the song?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • I use i-tunes for backing tracks with an acoustic band...how can I get a playlist to play one song at a time and not go to the next one until I manually select it?

    I use i-tunes for backing tracks. How can I set up a play list to play only one song at a time and not go to the next one until I manually select it?
    Thanks

    Uncheck all the songs in the playlist. iTunes will then play one song and stop.
