Oracle XE 10g database offline need help getting it back in 11g EE

Our server crashed...completely crashed...lightning took it clean out. It was older hardware running server 2003, oracle xe 10g, so we replaced it with a newer better server running 2008r2 (64bit I might add).
I need to bring the old database, tablespaces and datafiles back online with the new server and the new instance of Oracle.
I have sucessfully installed oracle 11g EE and can create new a new database (all is online with this), but I need my old data back for PCM 13.1. I cannot find any good online documentation regarding this issue, and we are down until its corrected. Obviously just copying the data over isnt going to work, so any help is much appreciated.
I have good copies of the old hard drives with the folder structures intact, but there is no chance of getting the old OS back online without purchasing old matching hardware and just slamming the drives into it.
Basically how do I get the new instance of Oracle to open and run my older database...how do I restore it?

I did it...yay! Here's what I did...I installed a fresh copy of oracle 10g xe in my virtual xp mode. Stopped the database after installation...deleted and replaced the oradata and fast_recovery_area folders with my old data. Started the database and everything worked so far. In the server with 2008 r2 I installed 11g xe, same system password. I then installed SQL Developer on both computers (easier for me than typing out the scripts). In the XP mode 10g xe computer I did a FULL data pump export to a dump directory. I then moved the dump file to the new server and ran a data pump import, appending data if existing. First time, failed....checked the log and obviously I missed the fact the folder structure MUST be the same for the datafiles or I would have to remap (too much work). The default oradata folder is different in 10g than 11g. I created the oradata folder in 11g xe in the same location as 10g would put it and ran the import script again. BAM, it worked this time...I have my data back in 11g xe and my software was able to find it like it should. Thank you for your consideration and help...hope this helps someone else down the road.

Lost my iPhone 6 Plus images and I need help getting them back.

I may just have to go to the apple store, but I am going to see if anyone out here can help me out.
Oct 31st I transferred my SIM from my iPhone 5S to a new iPhone 6 Plus. On December 7th(ish) my new iPhone decided that it would no longer focus on anything that was more than one foot away.
I was hoping that it would fix itself but it never did. So I went to the Apple Forums and there were some people suggested that wiping out the phone and restoring the system would help.
Before I wiped out my phone I did a back up. After the phone restored all the images and information came back. The camera started working for a couple clicks then stopped. I wiped out my phone three maybe four more times and it each time the images came back I even wiped out and set it up as a new iPhone and wiped back out and restored with my iCloud and the image still came up!!! ... but the focusing would not work for more than a couple of clicks.
On December 12 I took it into the iPhone store they said I'd needed a replacement one. Before we removed the "find my phone" and wiped out the device we made sure the phone was backed up. Because I had over 5,500 images on my phone I didn't wait around the store to make sure they all popped up and went home.
When I got home the phone only showed the 4,200 images I had taken with my iPhone 5S up to October 31st!!! However, under my settings my replacement iPhone 6 Plus shows 5,500 images but I cannot locate them.
The other thing that is odd is that all my "shared images" from October 31st to December 12th that I took with my 6 Plus are still showing up as well as the ones that I sent via which leads me to think that they are lost out in the iCloud Universe somewhere.
When logged on to my iCloud.com account it would only allow me to see what is on my current iPhone 6 Plus which includes the images before October 31st and the images I have taken since the iPhone 6 Plus. I cant see any of the images that are on my iPad that are set up under the same account, but it let's me see the icon for the iPad and it also shows me the icon for my other 6 Plus. However, the iCloud website will not allow me to click on the two icons and look at the images.
I believe that after 30 days from December 12th those images will probably by default be deleted from the iCloud system and I want to make sure that I get them back before they do.
I understand that apple changed the layout of the images and I did go and look at all my albums... so this not the case.
I can see my back up from Dec. 9 and Dec 12th and have tried to do the restore on this phone the text and the contacts pull up but the images do not.
Someone please help me out. I have all the images from our recent Disney World Vacation in there and I would really like to have them back.

cuz me too same case I have also I lost all my photos 800pics

Did you restore your phone with itunes or check new phone. You can always reconnect with itunes and restore your phone to old settings and it should replace everything because it is on your computer

When I was doing a Facebook screenshot I needed to widen the picture (not even thinking about using the maximize and minimize tool) so I right-clicked and unchecked all of my toolbars. I reeeeeally need them back so I need a way to get them back... this is where you guys come in...

don't ask how i got the url w/out a toolbar :( it was hard

Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
Hit the ''Alt'' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark.

My site went down and I need help getting it back up please!

Hello.   I am new to this forum and new to Dreamweaver.   I had a friend who was helping with my website but lapsed on a payment or two and the site went down. I can log back in now but I am unsure how to move the pages that I stored on my desktop back to the website space.   I tried "insert" but that button doesn't even light up.   Bottom line is I have a folder with the pages before it went down though I am unsure how to convert those to html.   I need to know how to move those files back into Dreamweaver so they appear on the website the way the did before it went down.   I also have them in a zip file form that he asked for a couple of years ago.    Would that help or be a better way to get the files back into Dreamweaver? I am Dreamweaver "stupid" so I need any and all help I can get and thank you very much!    If you want to answer me privately, you can email me at [email protected]   I would appreciate anything anybody can do to help this "stupid old broad" try to figure out how to get this website back up fairly quickly as I just mailed a grant in and I am sure they will be checking out the website.   We are a small nonprofit.   Thanks again!

Hi Hans.   I appreciate your "hanging with me" and yes I should change the date on my camera.   I changed the batteries recently and just haven't reset it.
I guess I am just not able to find how I access the Dreamweaver directory in the second window.   I have tried various "paths" but cannot find anything within Dreamweaver that says "directory". Only things like required, regloc, plug ins, LMResources, legal, JVM, installer, etc. so I am apparently not following the right path to the directory.   I have tried everything.
I have to be "real careful" as to what I do on the website as the space is "borrowed" from another person who also has his sites up there.   I feel confident though that if I could just copy the older working files onto the site again that "all would be well"   The "tree" is still there but somehow the files are incorrect and I don't even know how to remove them and start again. I just can't seem to figure anything out.   I am very very new at all of this and have probably relied on others for much too long.
Again, thank you so much for your time and effort.   I am still reading and looking :-)
Peace
Pam

Switched from DSL to cable, need help getting TC back on line.

I just switched from dsl to a cable modem to access the internet and my service provider doesn't offer support for my TC. Where can I find out how to change my settings (I guess from PPPOE to DHCP) to allow internet access from my wireless network? It seems like a matter of plugging the right numbers into the right place but I don't know where to find the numbers or where to put them exactly. Any help is appreciated.

Hello Sivad72. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
I suggest that you first perform a "hard" reset on your Time Capsule (TC). Then, perform a complete power recycle of your network components to get them "talking" again.
Power Recycling Steps
1. If the modem has a reset switch, use it to reset the modem. Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the modem to initialize.
2. Remove power from the modem. If it has a backup battery, remove this as well. Wait 5-10 minutes. Replace the battery, and add power back to the modem.
3. Perform a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
o Power-off the modem, TC, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the TC; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
4. Contact your ISP to have them perform a "modem reset."

Lost all my music need help getting it back!!!

i restored my computer to is factory state because it had a virus i could not get rid of. everything on my computer was erased. i dont have any of my music now. i downloaded itunes and plugged my ipod in but it only gives me the options to erase and sync or transfer purchases. how do i import the songs from my ipod on to itunes? please help!

There is no "Apple" way to transfer from the ipod to a computer as this was intended to thwart music piracy.
There are third party programs which can do it.
You really should get a hard drive and back up your computer as you will no doubt continue to lose data when a hard drive dies -- or in this case you had to reformat to get rid of a virus.

I need help getting iLife back on my iMac G5 (PPC)!

Around a year ago I decided to finally retire my beloved iMac G5 (non-isight version, in case it matters). My (not at all tech-savy) mother recently got an iPhone, and I decided to give her my old iMac G5, all set up so that she could use iTunes, Calendar, and iPhoto to sync with her phone.
I wanted to erase the hardrive so that we could start from scratch, and since I couldn't find the original disks, I decided to just go ahead a do the clean install with the Leopard disk (which is what was previously running on the iMac). After I did so I realized that iLife had not installed. I checked the literature and sure enough, the Leopard disk doesn't include iLife. I tried my OS X Tiger disk (also purchased for the iMac) and realized that, it too does not contain the iLife applications (although the booklet does talk about them). I went ahead and imported all of my mom's favorite CDs and gave her an iTunes lesson, but she still needs a way to manage her photos. Finally, I located the OS X 10.3.6 disks that came with my iMac. I was hoping iLife was on the "Additional Software" disk, but unfortunately it is not. When I tried the Install Disk 1 (hoping that I would have the option of just installing the iLife software) I only have the option of erasing everything and installing Panther. I really don't want to do this since I've already got itunes loaded up and ready to go... plus I'd have to re-install Tiger then Leopard. Is there a way for me to recover, install, or download iLife? Is my only option starting from scratch using the original G5 disks?

Unless you can find a copy of iLife on eBay or Craig's list, you'll have to buy it from Apple or erase your drive.
Reinstalling from your original discs and then upgrading will take a while, but you'll save the cost of iLife.

After logging on you yahoo this am, my calendar and notepad are gone. When I click on them I just get a blank screen. I am not very computer literate and need help getting them back.

When I usually go into yahoo mail, there is an icon at the top left hand side to access my calendar and notepad. They are both gone, but there is a field in the bottom left corner that has the buttons. When I click on either one, I just get a blank screen. I've not updated by Firefox to a new version and can't imagine what happened overnight.

This sounds more like it's a temporary problem with Yahoo's mail website. My advice at this point is to see if this fixes itself within a few hours. If not, please come back (actually, do come back regardless and let us know if your problem is solved).

Need Help Getting Files Back!!!

I transferred files to an external hard drive thinking that everything was alright, and after I deleted the files on my desktop and also emptying the trash after that.
When I opened my hard drive, the files were all shortcuts! I don't get it because I did what I always do which is drag and drop. Now since I deleted the files on my desktop and in the trash, is there a way I can get my files back from the computer? maybe third party software?
Thanks.

Try using an application such as Data Rescue or FileSalvage. Don't write anything else to the drive until the files are recovered or you choose not to recover them.

Preparing for Oracle OCA 11g using an Oracle Express 10g database

As a software application developer, I have been considering Oracle certification for a while to enhance my skill set. Unfortunately I don't have access to a commercial Oracle installation, and would like to use a free version of Oracle Express during my studies. The latest OCA courses largely focus on Oracle 11g, and it would appear that there is no free (Express) 11g database available yet.
Could anyone please advise me whether it would be possible and practical to prepare for the 1Z0-051 Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I and 1Z0-052 Oracle Database 11g: Administration I exams using an Oracle Express 10g database instance, while accompanied by the relevant Oracle 11g study material? In other words, is the overlap between Oracle 10g and 11g sufficient that a solid understanding of 10g could allow me to successfully sit the 11g exams? Furthermore, would the Express edition of the database provide sufficient functionality to prepare for the Administration exam?

(http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=1080544&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_051 says Exam 051 has been validated against Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Database 11g. Training on either version will be appropriate preparation.).
For 1z0-052 the situation is different. Oracle 10g express edition hides some of the administration tasks ... you really need to be using 11g.
If you dont waht Oracle 11g all over your regular machine then I would typically recommend install Oracle Enterprise Linux either on a spare machine with a dual core or HT processor and with 2GB or more of memory (eg Dell gx280 or better); or using a virtualisation solution on your current machine (ram would need to be 3GB or higher) (eg virtualbox or whatever ... though windows as a guest can have a license issue).
