Oracle 9i Client Install on Mac OSX

Is there a way to just install the Oracle client on Mac OSX 10.2.7 (not OS X Server)?
I downloaded the 9.2 Mac installer, but everything I've seen/read shows this installation will install the DB server and set up a database.
If anyone knows, please let me know... I'm just looking to connect (through PHP CLI) to a Oracle DB within our corporation. Thanks.

Hi,
Checkout MacSQL on www.rtlabs.com, there is info on installing Oracle OCI client and a link to the client only software.

How do I re-install my Mac OSX Server from scratch

Hi,
I have purchased two MacMini Servers with 10.6 OSX Server software pre-installed.
I have changed the organization as our company name changed and run into license issues.
I want to re-install the Mac OSX Server software and start from scratch. How do I go about this. I tried yesterday for many hours to do so and the new installs are still running into duplicate license issues and other issues. What is the best approach to do re-install? I am willing to erase the internal Hard Disk and boot (with an external DVD optical drive) if that is the best way to go. What are the steps?
I have the original CDs or DVDs and have extra, external hard disks to do a Time Machine backup, etc.
Thanks,
Don

If you are looking to do a nuke and pave of the system, and you have an external optical drive, then yes, that is likely the most direct method. Connect the optical drive, insert the installation DVD, and reboot the system targeting the optical disk as the boot volume (you can do this by holding down the C key or the Option key during startup).
Now, if you do not have an optical drive, you can put the installation disk into another Mac running 10.6 and use the Remote Install Mac OS X application in your Utilities folder.
Hope this helps

When I am re-installing the Mac OSX snow leopard onto an older Mac I run into the window that says select the disk where you want to install Mac OSX but nothing is there to select

I am trying to re-install the Mac OSX snow leopard onto an older I mac with a new hard drive. I run into the "select the disk "where you want to install Mac OSX but there is nothing in the window to select. Any advice?

After you install a new hard drive, you need to boot to another drive to initialize it to MAC OS Extended (journaled) format and create the partition(s) on the drive. You do this using Disk Utility. Otherwise, the mac operating install process doesn't see a formatted disk to install to.

If you have a Mid 2010 model: Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery. If later then see below:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
If you have an earlier model:
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.

Elements 4 crashing immediately after install on mac OSX 10.4.11, can anyone help ?

I have an infuriating problem with Elements 4 crashing immediately after an install on mac OSX 10.4.11, can anyone help ?
I was given the computer, which still had Elements 4 on it although it always crashed on opening, i removed the program and bought a 2nd hand hard copy of Elements 4 from eBay.
When i install the new copy it opens up with the "credits" but at the bottom right it still shows the past owners name as licensee briefly, then crashes before fully opening.
Does anyone know what is going on? I know it's an old version but i find elements4 perfect for my needs
Thankyou for reading.
Simon

More information needed. Are you saying you're just running the computer from the PO's user account? I would very strongly recommend erasing the disk and starting over with a fresh install of OS X for a number of reasons.

Dreamweaver 8 install on Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard

Hi all,
I have just done a fresh install of Mac OSx Snow Leopard (10.6) and am trying to install our copy of Dreamweaver 8 onto it. However I have now run into a few problems. Firstly it came up with an error message stating that some old format is no longer supported or something. I cant get the error message back up now, as now the CD will not mount within OSx!
Can anyone assist with this? Thanks.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

Oracle 9i client install fails to load disk 3

I downloaded the Oracle 9.2 database software from OTN. I'm trying to install the 9i client from this software. I've extracted the disk1, disk2, disk3 to separate directories. I run the install from disk1 and it gets about 90% into the install, then it requests disk 3. When the "Disk Location" dialog box comes up I set the path to the appropriate location for disk 3. Then I click OK. The OUI comes right back with the same dialog box. I have verified that the path to disk is correct. Any ideas? The install cannot get past this.

Negative. The installer only asks for disk 3. I'm installing from the Oracle 9.2 Enterprise Edition download. I'm just choosing to install the client. I just figure for a client install, it doesn't need to access the contents of disk 2. Incidentally, even if I direct the installer at disk 2, I receive the same results. Nothing happens.

Oracle 8i Client install over Oracle 9i

I am trying to install Oracle 8i Client over top my Oracle 9i installation to support 8i EXP processess. It is appearing that it works (i.e. Universal Installer runs through everything like it is installing) but afterward if I run the Univ Installer to look at installed programs it is all still version 9.2 items and my migration of 8i to 9i still does not work. How do I force an overwrite?
Pretty sure I am not a P4 so that should not be the issue. Am I missing something on how to get 8i over top 9i?????
Thanks for any help,
Miller

If you want to install that software you have to do it in a different Oracle Home. If you want to export a database or part of it with the export uitility of Oracle8i client you will be able to do it without installing Oracle8i Client on Oracle9i.

Oracle 8i client install. at mobile PC's

Hello,
i'll try to install a Oracle 8i client at a laptop, but it failed.
I start autorun.exe. I can see the first mask, but the pick at the install-button failed.
The installation at non-mobile-computers are correct.
What can i do?

Hi All
First of all I have to say that for the amount of money spent on a software product Adobe's level of support is simple unacceptable. After spending many hr's on the phone and over 6 calls I gavce up. Each call the technician started from scratch in trouble shooting and did not even read the ticket info to see what was previously tried. The last couple of calls after 3 hrs on the phone each time, I was informed that this would be escalated to second and then thrid level support. Each time I was called back a week later where they left a msg to call back. When I called back the first person I talked to was the person again who attempted to trouble shoot the issue and the problem was never escalated So in the end after about more then 20hrs on the phone, 6 or 7 repeated occasions on the phone with tech support not including the ones where I called and sat on hold for over an hr and gave up, I simply gave up on their support. Unfortunately this left me with the only option of completely reinstalling OSX.

CC Apps showing not installed on Mac OSX 10.8.4

Can't seem to find a solution for this – when viewing the CreativeCloud menu under Apps, it says 'You have not installed any applications yet" They were showing up a couple of weeks ago, but now shows not installed. I've installed the new AAM and restarted the Creative Cloud, no change. What I did notice is that some apps updated using AAM instead of the CC. I would rather not download the entire suite again to make this work – any help here?

@mishmedia, the above solution is meant for Mac OSX.
Widows 7 and 8 (64 bit):
Rename OOBE to OOBE_old (it's in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe.)
Relaunch the browser.
Go to https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.
Sign in with your Adobe ID and password and download the CC Desktop App.

Why does FlashPlayer not install in Mac OSX Snow Leopard?

I've downloaded FlashPlayer for Mac OS, and the entire install process is completed successfully. But I do not have FlashPlayer capability, and I cannot find FlashPlayer on my hard drive. I've downloaded all of the recent updates for Mac OSX Snow Leopard, have closed all programs, shut down and restarted--nothing works. After a supposedly "successful" installation, I don't have FlashPlayer. What's up?

ADE does not recognize Sony devices on the Mac. You'll need to use the Sony software instead.
