How do you add time to the time part of date in oracle

Guys:
I need to add 5 hours to the date in a date column. I did it the foll. way.
for ex:
select to_char(sysdate, 'mm/dd/yy hh:mi:ss'), to_char((sysdate + (5/24)), 'mm/dd/yy hh:mi:ss;) from dual;
It works! The second column shows that 3 hours has been added to the time. I am wondering if there is a better way to do it. Any tips/suggestions please.....
I use SQL Server a lot and they have the Dateadd function to add to ay part of the datetime such as day, motnh, year, hours, minutes, etc.

Not Sure !
But, try
dtefield + 5/24
This will dd 5/24 day !

Droid 4 how do you add sounds for the alarm.

How do you add sounds for the alarm on the Droid 4. I do not like any of the alarm clock sounds.

In your internal storage of the phone, create a folder called alarms. Then copy or move the audio files to that folder.
You might need to download a file explorer application from the Android Market.
If the alarms in the root of storage doesn't work. Create a media folder, then a audio folder in that folder and then move the alarms folder in that folder.
Or the simplest route, download the app called Ringdroid. You can use that application to set sounds as various ringtones types.

How do you add things to the cloud ?

How do you add things to the cloud on an iPhone 4

There are two ways to store things in iCloud - iCloud Drive and iCloud Photo Library (Beta).
You can store all kinds of documents on iCloud Drive by dragging the documents to the iCloud Drive icon in the Finder sidebar on your Mac, see: iCloud Drive FAQ
iCloud Drive will update the documents across all your devices, but i will keep shadow copies on the devices. You will not free space by moving documents to iCloud Drive.
iCloud Photo Library (Beta). lets you store your photos in iCloud and keep only optimised, smaller versions on the devices, but it is only available on your iPad, iPhone. For the Mac it is only as Beta version available, see: Apple - OS X - Photos Preview

How do you add folders to the music library instead of just individual files in iTunes 10?

When I try to add folders to the library like I used to be able to, the only option that appears is 'Add files to library' - any tips?

You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
CTRL+B to turn on the menu bar (also opens temporarily with ALT).
CTRL+S to turn on the sidebar (your device should be listed here as before).
CTRL+/ to turn on the status bar.
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store anduntick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may allow iTunes to start up quicker).
The first one will give you access to File > Add Folder to Library.

How do you add icons to the iPhone which are listed as purchased apps and show installed but are not appearing on the screen.

Some of my purchased apps show installed but don't appear as icons on my phone. How do I get them to be icons?

I am back. I have now sorted out my Launch Pad to be organized the way I want it. I have decluttered my Dock. Very nice.
Now I want to add some of the remaining icons for apps that did not automatically show up in Launch Pad. So, again, how do I do that?
Thanks,

How do you add apps to the 32gig ipod touch

Hi all, just a quick question, how do you transfer apps, what have been bought or whats free to the ipod touch? i've got loads on the laptop, but can't seem to transfer to the ipod touch cheers

Go to the Applications tab, with ipod attached to itunes and select to sync apps and select the ones you want to sync - same as music, photos, videos, etc.
You have to have software version 2.0 or later on your ipod touch for this.

How do you add applications to the library list?

The apps I want to write a workflow for are not in the default library list. How do I add them? Specifically, I'm talking about the xAct app. I intend to write a workflow to automate decoding FLAC compressed audio files and adding them to the iTunes library. I tried simply dragging the app into the library window but that did nothing.

If the application has a GUI (Graphical User Interface), Apple has included methods for scripting that. Information about activating the UI Scripting, a UI Element Inspector (for figuring out what to call things), and some examples are located at http://www.apple.com/applescript/uiscripting/01.html .

How do you add folders to the mailbox?

i only have inbox sent and trash. is there a way to make other folders so you can save or put the email in it instead of leaving it in the inbox?

The use and creation of additional folders is dependant on the type of mail you are using, i.e. POP3 versus IMAP or Exchange. If you are using POP3, generally from an ISP provider, then you do not have the ability to create additional folders in your mail client. You also generally will only retrieve mail from a single mail client as well.
IF you have IMAP, this gives you the ability to sync your mail in multiple email clients and can create the additional folders and they will remain in sync. These additional folders are generally created on your computer, but then sync to the iPhone when you next access the mail client.
Exchange is similar to IMAP.
Hope that answers your question.

How to get a time part from Date datatype

Hi,
I would like to know how to extract the timestamp alone from DATE datatype? If my input is '27-SEP-2011 23:59:00' I need the output as 23:59:00. I am surprised to see that there are no in-built functions for this or may be I am wrong. Basically I need to remove the date part from DATE data type and get the time.Please assist.
-Thanks

There is a built-in function, TO_CHAR:
TO_CHAR (dt_col, 'HH24:MI:SS')Depending on how you plan to use the time, TRUNC is another handy built-in function:
dt_col - TRUNC (dt_col)is a NUMBER (not less than 0, but less than 1) which is suitable for many tasks, such as finding the average time.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables, and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

How do you add footers in the BlackBerry Curve 8530?

I'm actually asking on behalf of my employer. I wanted to know how to add/create footers using the BlackBerry Curve 8530 model series.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I don't know what footers are.
I know what an email signature line is.
For example, each email you write would have automatically added to the end:
"Thanks,
Bob Smith

That?
