Please Help, cant get 8i Enterprise working on my system...cant get into sql plus

Hello,
I am trying to get my oracle 8i working. I installed it, and it went ok, except two optional programs didnt work, though it was recommended to get them working, i didnt know how and just went on. Also some of the programs are not working either...which i dont understand since the software installed successfully.
I am using 8i enterprise on my win2k system. I am not on a network and am using it only on my local machine. I CANNOT get into Sql Plus as it is asking me for a user/password/host string. i tried so many combinations. scott/tiger, system/manger, sys/system_change_on_install and various other things on this discussion board.
Nothing is working for me and I have no idea whats wrong. I have used installed Oracle systems before and used to just login those systems as scott/tiger and no problems. This is the first time i have installed it from scratch and i havent been able to get into the system.
Any help would GREATLY be appreciated. Thank you.

the programs that do not work are:
Database Configuration Assistant
INTYPE File Assistant
Net 8 Assistant
Net 8 Configuration Assistant
Net 8 Easy Config
I click the programs and nothing happens. Not sure even if something is supposed to happen though.
the error when i type in the pass/user is:
ORA-12560: TNS: protocol adapter error
thank you for helping.

  • Please help!  Ipod won't work with my itunes after plugged into MAC

    Hi, I am brand new to my ipod and i plugged it into my PC to get it started, then i plugged it into a friends mac to get his songs- now when i plug it back into my computer it says it is linked to another itunes library and asks if i want to link it back to this one and replace all of the music. I do not want to loose all of the music but want it reconnected to my itunes with the music on my computer and taking the music on the ipod (from my friends itunes) into my itunes. What do i do? I apologize if this is something posted before,i couldn't find an answer. Please help!! thanks

    That above article will not resolve the issue. It explaines it clearly in the article.
    "Using an iPod formatted for Macintosh on a Windows computer is not supported. Using an iPod formatted for Windows on a Macintosh computer is not supported."
    this means that it won't work with out a 3rd party tool. You HAVE to restore it if you take it between different OS. That document works only if your taking it between windows machines or all mac machines.

  • Please help - cannot get into any of the icons, when i touch the icon it makes a square round it but won't go into it. Tried restarting and rebooting it but no change.

    Please help. Since yesterday whenever i try to use my ipod touch, all the icons won't let me enter the app. Every one whenever i touch it just shows a faint square round the icon, and it won't access the item. Tried re-starting & re-setting but it hasn't fixed it.

    Are some of your accessiblity features activated?
    Each accessibility feature can be turned on or off in Accessibility settings on iPod touch. You can also turn some features on or off in iTunes when iPod touch is connected to your computer.
    Turn on accessibility features using iPod touch: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility.
    Turn on accessibility features using iTunes: Connect iPod touch to your computer and select iPod touch in the iTunes device list. Click Summary, then click Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary screen.

  • Error 213.5 Please help me get DW working again. Thanks CaptJim4685

    I have a Mac OS 10.10 used the Migration Assistant to move all files from old computer to new computer yesterday. Now can not use my Dreamweaver CS 5.5 program I have my original install disk. Tried that. get error 213.5 Please help me get DW working again. Thanks CaptJim4685

    Hi Nancy O.
    Thing is, I was using it on my old MacBookPro, also w/ yosemite. No problem. So I think it should run on the new one with the same OS.
    I did figure out how to find the CC cleaner log file. It had a lot of stuff in it, but did not indicate any kind of failures. I did not see the word “failure in the log file at all.
    After your suggestions, I went thru all the steps again - twice - very carefully emptying the trash between steps and restarting. Got the same error message at the end.
    Now, I still have 5.5 working on the old computer. That was my first and only install. My notes suggest  I installed it in 2011.
    If I knew for sure that if I deactivated it (if I knew how to do that) on the old computer, and uninstalled it, AND I could then count on the install working on my new computer, I would do it, but I am afraid to do that for fear that then I wouldn’t have it to use at all.
    I had expected it to transfer over, and then I would clean the old computer, as my son wants it for his wife, They have no use for DW.
    I also had trouble w/ MS Office, but they allowed me to call them and get a new install code. Now that Works fine.
    I wish Adobe were as accommodating. I have my original install disk & code. I never expected any of this trouble.
    I hope you can come up with a new plan. I really can’t afford to buy a new copy, especially when I know that this one should work, if it would just get rid of this blocking action.
    I only use it for editing my own personal family website: http:www.americanfenner.com.  I am not a webmaster/webwriter/ computer programmer or anything like that. Just an old guy doing personal stuff on my mac.

  • Ios7 update audio is hissing and static. Please help me get rid of this noise so I may enjoy my audio on my iPad

    Ever since the ios7 update my audio is hissing and has static. Please help me get rid of this noise so I may enjoy my audio on my iPad

    Just for the record, this is what I wrote to Apple feedback:
    (If anyone really knows what the problem is, please let us know.)
    Apple iPad mini. Re: Hiss
    Hi. I am one of the very unhappy people who can't use the iPad for recording since getting ios7.  The apple forum is replete with stories like mine: ios6 recording was quiet - ios7 is noisy. I have tried every suggestion. Why won't anybody at apple tell us what the problem is? I have been using macs since 1986. All I want to do is record my songs on my iPad. Unfortunately for me, I recently brought my iPad-mini refurbished so there is no warranty. If I had bought it new I would be at the Genius Bar until I got the problem fixed. Did I mention how unhappy I am?  Here are the specs: 1st gen iPad mini running ios7. Recording onto Multitrack DAW with a Samson Go mic to a 30-pin USB camera adapter, into an apple brand lightening adapter into iPad mini. Everything works fine except for the HISS.

    I got mine (2 weeks ago) 64GB WiFi+3G (Verizon) from the apple store online
    I didnt have to do anything to it, turned it on, activated it, got it on my home network then I signed up for the 3G data service, it works where ever I happen to be. (if there is an unknown WiFi connection available it asks me if I want to join before it continues to connect to the 3G when I am surfing or getting e-mail)
    do you have an Apple Store close enough to travel to?
    I am only assuming here, but since you have a SIM you are not in the US correct?

    Did you add or change your credit card details on your iTunes account when downloading them ? If you have then each time that you do so a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

    You have Distiller (used by the PDF Printer) or the Acrobat Quick Launcher running in the background. Shut down the processes or terminate them in task manager.

    Hi friends, I have a Mac Pro OS X 10.5.8, I want to upgrade newer version its possible, please help to get a solution
    thanks

    See options below:
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
