Importing dump taken from higher version to lower version

Hi all,
I have already taken dump from oracle 9.0.2 database without using exp utility of lower verion and alo without running catexp.sql script prior to export.
Now i need to import this dump into 9.0.1 database.It gives error due to backward-incompability.
Is there any way to import without re-exporting whole database again using exp utility of lower version against higher version.

It is an unsupported scenario. I had to face it once with the same 920->901 versions. What I did was also absolutely unsupported at my own risk and it was a last chance action. I'll tell you what I did and how it worked for me, which doesn't mean it will work for any situation. If you open your file with a binary file editor you will see at the first file blocks a header that displays the export version "EXPORT:V09.02.00" This header is read by the import to check which version was used to generate the file and prevent an unsupported downgrade, I changed it to EXPORT:V09.00.01 and retried the import. A lot of error messages appeared, but it successfully loaded my information. I took the risk because I made sure this specific database contained just basic tables, indexes and version compatible objects and definitions, it was a testing environment, I didn't have the right Oracle version and there was no time to get it, and finally I had a bullet proof backup.

When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

Compatibility problem with Imported videos taken from Galaxy S2's Camera

Hi,
I have several video files taken from galaxy s2 in various sizes ( 720*480, 1280*720,...).
I imported them to iPhoto'11 on my mac with other photos successfully but failed to sync them with my iPad through iTunes.
It said "The video format is not supported by the iPad"...
I checked the video files with MediainfoMac application and they're encoded with H.264 which is supported by ipad.
I even converted them with avidemux ( copying video, re-encoding audio with FAAC) which used to work for many mkvs and avis, but syncing them also failed...:(
I know I can sync them if I re-encode whole file, but still I can't understand why the mp4 video file from galaxy s2 are not compatible with ipad!
Here's a file information taken from MediaInfoMac application. Please someone let me know why this file format is not supported by ipad...

Tim, that's a good thought.
The Mac I hooked the iPod up to is running iTunes 4. However, I did not sync the iPod to it, I answered "No" to all queries to sync to the computer.
This of course doesn't mean that the presence of iTunes 4 on the Mac didn't screw up the iPod, but I think that would have to be considered a bug that should be fixed since you ought to be able to recharge your iPod on any computer's USB port without screwing up your library regardless of what version of iTunes it is running as long as you don't attempt to sync the two machines. Hopefully someone from Apple will look into whether this is indeed the problem and if so, fix it.
Interestingly, I discovered my music videos and tv shows under the /Music/Playlists/Purchased (but NOT my purchased music!), and I can play the music videos back that way, but it only plays the audio and the first frame of the video as if it were album art. The tv shows won't play back at all, apparently.
I suspect you are correct that iTunes 4 accessed the iPod without permission and screwed things up. Hopefully Apple can fix that since I regularly visit people who don't keep all their software updated to the latest versions due to having dial-up internet or other reasons (which, after all, aren't really my business).
Thanks for the help.

Import Dump Error from 10g to 11G Database

Hi
We are installing dump from 10g DB to 11g DB. We have received dump file in tape and trying to import with imp command.
imp system/sys@test11g file=/dev/st0 full=y fromuser=x touser=x
However, it gives error "IMP-00037: Character set marker unknown". Please advice on it also let us know things to take care while installing 10g dump into 11g DB.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All
We have checked with client and have export log , dump was exported with expdp command. Client had sent dump in tap drive. So, we have tried with impdp command
impdp system/sys@test11g SCHEMAS=test DIRECTORY=data_pump_dir LOGFILE=schemas.log
I have following questions ->
1) With impdp it is always require to have oracle directory object to point dump file?
2) Can i create oracle direcotry with tap device path i.e /dev/st01
For now, i have created oracle direcotry with tap device path. However above command is giving error as below :
ORA-39002: invalid operation
ORA-39070: Unable to open the log file.
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 536
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
Please let me know how to do import dump with impdp command with exported file in tap drive.
Thanks in advance

When I import photos taken from my Windows PC using a flash drive, the photos in iPhoto are dated as the date last modified on PC instead of date picture taken.

When I import photos to my iMac, taken from my Windows PC using a flash drive, the photos in iPhoto are dated as the date last modified on PC instead of date picture taken.

Then you need to ask a PC forum how to export the photos there to include the Metadata (specifically the EXIF data)
If there is valid EXIF data iPhoto uses it (the EXIF data is originally added to the photo by the digital camera) and if there is no EXIF data then the only inofrmaiton IPhoto have available is the file metadata and that is what is used
You can correct the dates in iPhoto using the batch change data/time command

Export from higher APEX version to lower version

Hello,
Is there anyway to export an application from APEX version 3.0? Oracle 11G to version 2.2? Oracle 10G? Any help greatly appreciated.
Sharon

Bharat,
When 3.1 is released, say early 2008, you can make your decision based on the information in the Release Notes and related collateral which should provide a useful synopsis of new features.
The database version you select is an independent decision.

Can higher version corrupt lower version databse ?

Dear Experts,
Oracle 9.2.0.6, HP-UX
Oracle 10.2.4 HP-UX
Can a database be corrupt in following situation:
1. export ORACLE_HOME=9iHome
2. export PATH=9iPath
3. database is working fine as it is created in 9i
4. Shut immediate;
5. copy parameter file from 9i to 10g home
6. export ORACLE_HOME=10gHome
7. export PATH (Oracle 10g path) ---> started with 10g
8. sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
9. startup
10. shut immediate
11. export ORACLE_HOME=9iHome
12 export ORACLE_PATH=9iPath
13 startup
What will be result ? will database refuse to open ?
Thanks & Regards
Sunil Kumar
Edited by: sunil kumar on Sep 4, 2011 8:27 AM

It should refuse to startup as the first startup in this scenario would need to be a startup upgrade or a startup migrate, whatever applied to 10g.
Evidently, this is discussed in the migration manual, and evidently this is why your question is redundant in this forum.

Can I move back from Nokia Belle to lower version ...

I installed Belle on my E6 and having a lot of trouble with it. Main issue is that wherever there is an option key at the center of row at bottom, Touch functionality is disabled at center. I am not able to activate the center key.
This means, I cannot even set an alarm, cannot add locations in World Clock menu, cannot search programs from main menu, etc...
Need immediate solution please...
Karthik

Jimmy, it pains me to jump ship from Nokia. I don't take it lightly. I have been using Nokia phones for years. In fact right now I am using my 5 year old beat up old falling apart E71 while waiting for the S3 to arrive. The E71 is a way better phone that the E6. If the E6 had been built on S60 then we wouldn’t be having this discussion. I don’t care about album art flow and pretty icons and “Retina” screens, etc. I want a phone that is solid and works. Other than the camera (and it didn’t even have AF), the E6 was a huge disappointment across the board and Belle made it worse.
Android is not what I would call a great OS and I am not looking forward to the switch but the choices are limited: Android, WP8 and iOS. And I am not going to use an Apple product. I demo’ed a 920 and it just didn’t feel like a Nokia. It may have Nokia hardware but what made Nokia great was Symbian and I am not talking about Belle. The Lumia feels like a Microsoft product. It doesn't really matter if it says Nokia or HTC or Samsung on the package, it's still driven by WP8. Symbian is what made Nokia unique and fun. Stuff that I loved about the E71 is no longer found on any Nokia products.
I mean no disrespect, but the Nokia products and features that I loved are now gone, nowhere to be found.

How to run jar file created with higher version on lower version ?

Hi,
I downloaded a jar file and trying to run it on Linux machine with Java version 1.4...
I got error that jar file complied with 1.5 version.
Is there any way to run it on 1.4 version. I don't want to upgrade Java version of my linux :)

On the contrary, the 'reality' is that it is better, and probably easier, once you analyse and present the comparative costs and risks correctly, to get the mandate lifted than to back-port code to platform levels for which it was not designed.The main blockade (judging by my observations) for actually doing it is that this is not a simple code change, which is what programmers really, really, really want to keep it within their comfort zone. All of a sudden you're tasked with software upgrades and the demands that it brings, such as testing to make sure everything still works properly and getting grumpy system's administrators to actually go do it.
I wouldn't be surprised that there are people out there that would rather back port a library than to take the initiative to get Java upgraded :/
