New name for the product?

The name Oracle Express Edition seems to be causing a bit of confusion as there is already an Oracle Express in the stable, some kind of OLAP tool. So I was just wondering why Oracle went for a name so close to an existing product. I have a couple of suggestions for alternative names:
- MyOracle
- I Can't Believe Its Not SQL Server
Cheers, APC

Well, on the platform I've used (xos, a RedHat EL clone) there's no chance of a mssql installation - and yes, rpm -i <oracleXE.rpm> puts the 'express' in installation (on an athlon 1GHz in less then 10 minutes). Since I've been 'playing' with 10g2 and ASM I did install some libs first, that may have helped.
As a sidenote: sybase express edition (ee) is also available (even included on a live-cd distro), time for a XE-Live-CD?
My personal take on the name: XE doesn't sound to bad, and since EE is already taken in the oracle product family ...

  • Does a new name for the internal HD make my Time Machine (and CCC) backups useless?

    I have a replacement 1TB internal HD that I need to clone from my existing internal HD, using Carbon Copy Cloner. Initially I'll connect it in an external enclosure via USB, no questions on that.
    I'd like to give the new HD itself a new name. Is there any way to have the new drive recognize all the corresponding data on my external drive Time Machine. Or will I have to start all over? I know that means I'd lose several months' worth of TM data.
    As long as I'm asking about TM, does the same principle apply to the 1:1 clones made with CCC?
    Thanks for any help.

    No problem with renaming the clone drive something else, in fact it's recommended.
    However for best results I suggest doing so while option key booted from the clone, just in case.

  • Create an iPod or iphone version - is there any way to avoid duplicate files OR automating a new name for the new file?

    hi,
    I have two devices for my videos. An ipod classic and an Ipad. I would prefer to keep the highest resolution possible but also will be travelling and it will be useful to have a large archive with me.
    I have found that many of the videos I have are "incompatible" with my ipod classic and am in the process of using the "create an ipod or iphone version" but this results in a duplicate file in my itunes library that is identical in everyway (except size and this can be bigger or smaller).
    When you buy a HD video off itunes, you get both versions but only one file populates in the itunes libary.
    Is there anyway that when itunes "creates the ipod or iphone version", it can do automatically merge these two files so you only see one file in your library? And then it will automatically sync the appropriate file with the appropriate device?
    Or is there a way to have itunes "create the ipod or iphone version" and have it automatically label it with the name "XXX (ipod version"?
    I am finding it very annoying to manually change all the titles on all the files being created.
    thanks, margaret

    When you open a Word document with Pages you get a translated-to-Pages file & the original Word document is unchanged. There are programs that will save over the original file such as LibreOffice. Pages will not.

  • Trivia question: internal production name for the Mac Book Pro

    Hi,
    I know Apple has internal production names for their products. So the Mac Book Pro has an internal name other than the Mac Book Pro.
    i was curious, for trivial purposes, what is Apple's internal production name they use for the MacBook Pro?

    Yes, the few people who worked on the project are just dying to post it here so that they can lose their jobs. I can't believe no one has replied yet!
    Seriously, no one knew they were ven announcing a new name for the PowerBook outside of the Apple Campus until Steve announced it. Why would anyone know the unannounced codename?

    Have new Airport Extreme conneted via ethernet cable from HughesNet Gen4 modem. Using NetGear WN3500RP extender. NetGear asks for different names for the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands.

    Different names for the 2.4 and 5 GHz networks are optional, but can be convenient for you to distinguish one from another. It's up to you.

  • Just updated my mac from Tiger to Mountain Lion. Loaded Photoshop elements 11 (brand new in the box) and when I try to start it - it comes up saying - Licensing for the product has stopped working contact for help.

    I just updated my mac from Tiger to Mountain Lion.  wiped the computer clean and started fresh Loaded Photoshop elements 11 (brand new in the box) and when I try to start it - it comes up saying - Licensing for the product has stopped working contact for help. in Looking for help I was directed here. what do I do?

    I don't know enough to not follow directions. I bought the software brand new in a sealed from factory box. Had it sitting around until - last week when I deleted flash on my computer and had to upgrade to the new OSX. Mountain Lion doesn't use iPhoto - so I had to go with something else. Since I already had this new - unopened package  I opened it up. Shut down all running programs - inserted the disk and followed all the directions for installation.  Still it didn't work.
    I have now uninstalled it (the proper way) and am going to try again.
    I appreciate your responses.
    Thank you!
    If this doesn't work - I am going to just buy Lightroom.

  • I would like to change the spacing between the words for the product names, they look double spaced at present.

    A simple question I think, I would like to change the spacing between the words for the product names, they look double spaced at present. On the home page, and product pages. Not sure where to change this in the css here is the site; http://top10shop.businesscatalyst.com

    That site is using an old font technology called cufon, it uses canvas to draw the text into the font you want. Not really good for modern websites.
    It is what the font was and how it was made. I never used Cufon but the documentation is here - Usage · sorccu/cufon Wiki · GitHub At a glance there are no render options for the double spacing so I am guessing it was how the font was generated.
    I would scrap all of that completely tbh.

  • Runtime environment for the production apex instance

    My first goal is to export a full application from a full development environment to a runtime environment.
    The two environments are on dedicated servers.
    From Oracle Application Express documentation and Oracle Application Express Forum, I realized that to install an exported application into a runtime installation, you must:
    1) Export the workspace from the Application Express instance where the application was developed. The export file created contains information about the workspace, all the users in the workspace, and any groups in the workspace (if applicable).
    2) Use SQL*Plus to import your workspace in to the runtime environment.
    3) Export and then import your application (with Supporting Objects) using SQLPlus in to the runtime environment. The related files
    This means that to be able to import an application via SQL*Plus from a development environment to a runtime environment, the workspace must exist (with the identical workspace ID) in the runtime environment. And the best way to ensure that the workspace IDs are the same is to export the workspace from the development apex instance and import it into the runtime apex instance.
    Also, you can't change the application ID through SQL*Plus - so if you're importing the application via SQL*Plus, either a) that application ID can't exist, or b) if it does exist, it will be overwritten by the import (of course, in case b we don't export/import also supporting objects).
    I know that there are some tricks, like editing the application export file just to import into a workspace with a different ID in the production runtime environment. But i wuold like to be official supported ;)
    So in my case i think i could, for the first export/import:
    1) Convert the production apex instance from runtime environment into a full development environment.
    2) Export the workspace from the development instance using the apex administration services (in a text file).
    3) Import the exported workspace into the production instance using the text file created and SQLPlus connect as APEX_030200.
    FOR THE NEXT POINT 4 I ASSUME THAT EXPORTING/IMPORTING A WORKSPACE DOES NOT INCLUDE THE SCHEMAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE WORKSPACE.
    4)
    a1) Create a new schema for the supporting objects of applications in the production instance with a DBA tool.
    a2) Assign the schema created in the production instance to the workspace imported from the development instance, using the apex administration services.
    or, if you want apex creating the schema for the supporting objects of applications:
    4)
    b1) Create a new workspace (with a new schema) in the production instance using the apex administration services.
    b2) Delete the workspace created in the production instance: the schema will not be removed.
    b3) Assign the schema created to the workspace imported from the development instance.
    5) Delete the users and eventually the groups in the imported workspace in the production instance, using the apex administration services.
    6) Change the name of the imported workspace in the production instance, using the apex administration services.
    7) Convert the production apex instance from full development environment to runtime environment.
    8) Export the application (with supporting objects) from development instance, using the export page.
    9) Import the application (with supporting objects) to the production instance using SQLPlus connect as APEX_030200.
    10) Export all associated files (related files) of the application (CSS, Images, Themes, ...) from developmente instance, using the tabs located at the top of the export page.
    11) Import the related files to the production instance using SQLPlus connect as APEX_030200.
    So, for next the next releases of the application i can again export the full application:
    1) Export the application (without supporting objects) from development instance, using the export page.
    2) Import the application (without supporting objects) to the production instance using SQLPlus connect as APEX_030200.
    3) Export all updated associated files (related files) of the application (CSS, Images, Themes, ...) from developmente instance, using the tabs located at the top of the export page.
    4) Import the exported related files to the production instance using SQLPlus connect as APEX_030200.
    or i can export and import single pages of the application.
    Excuse me for the long introduction, but the question is:
    what i have written is correct? Please let me know also your advice.
    Thanks a lot.
    Silvio

    HI,
    Thanks for responding.
    Should the APEX_ADMIN be available in a runtime environment?
    If so, we have missed a step in our installation.

  • MS Word: This file is read-only. To save a copy, click OK, and give the document a new name in the save dialog box.

    This is not a question. I believe I've found a new issue and the fix for it.
    The situation:
    A brand new iMac 27" running Yosemite 10.10.1
    MacMini server running 10.8.5 server.
    The issue:
    Client on iMac trying to work on MS Word documents stored on server was requiring him to save the documents to his desktop and then copy them back to the folder on the server. The exact error message was, "This file is read-only. To save a copy, click OK, and give the document a new name in the save dialog box."
    The issue is unique to this computer in an office of 10 client computers and three servers.
    Attempted fixes:
    Verified that the ".Temporaryitems" folder existed and the permissions were set properly.
    Repaired permissions on the client and the network share.
    Definitive fix:
    By default, Yosemite 10.10.1 uses SMB for connecting file shares. When I overrode the default and switched to AFP protocol, the issue went away.
    I hope this helps someone else.

    That was it. What an operating system. It is very helpful to view files you are looking for. But if you have preview on you cannot save files.

  • How do I create a new calendar for the current year, using last years calendar's birthday's/photos and comments from the lower pages?

    Each year for the past 5 years I make a family calendar and send copies to all he family members around the globe.  I hate that I have to recreate all the birthdays and special occasions from scratch, and re-drag all the photos onto these dates, in the lower half of the page of each month on the new calendar.  How can I create a new calendar for the current year and port all of these photos/comments into the new calendar from last years calendar, to save having to redo all this work!!  I am not talking about the upper half page of the photos only...I am referring to the calendar page of each month.
    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Open iWeb so you see your original site in the left hand pane. Use the File->New Site menu option to create a new site. Give it the name you want.
    Now select a page in your original site and type Command+D. That will duplicate the page. Drag the duplicate page down to the new site and rename it as needed. Do that for the other pages you need in the original site.

  • I cannot upgrade itunes 10.1 or higher on Windows xp. I get the file 'C:\...AppleSoftwareUpdate\' is not a valid installation pkg for the product iTunes. Try to find the installation pkg in a folder for which u can intsall iTunes. Can't find folder. Now ?

    This is getting frustrating, it won't let me upgrade.  I get to a certain point where it tells me iTunes.msi is not a valid installation package for the product.
    What do I need to do?  I have bought a new Ipod & I have to update before I can download to my Ipod.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
