Please help me. I'm new to Oracle.

Hello all
I'm Sean and new to Oracle and wana purse learning Oracle Forms&Reports but to start I need to also learn Oracle DataBase as well.
Please I know you're all busy but HELP me to fix this problem and start learning Oracle.
I've installed oracle DB 10G. XE. without any problem and have been using it everyday BUT I just installed Oracle SQL Dev v. 1.2.1.... and can't creat a new connection. (it's all installed in my compaq laptop using Win XP SP 3).
I've been reading all the comments in forums but I'm still stuck. PLEASE SOME ONE HELP ME.
Learning from all you guys comment I looked at my Listener.ora and it looks like this:
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Shawn_COMPAQ)(PORT = 1521))
DEFAULT_SERVICE_LISTENER = (XE)
and my sqlnet.ora looks like this:
# This file is actually generated by netca. But if customers choose to
# install "Software Only", this file wont exist and without the native
# authentication, they will not be able to connect to the database on NT.
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
The tnsnames.ora looks like this:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = SHAWN_COMPAQ)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = CLRExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
from looks of it comparing to what I have seen in ppl's comments and copy&past of files in forums, my 3 files all looks weird and I guess it missing lot of things.
when I try to create a new connection to see built-in schema (HR) all though it's unlocked but sql dev can't establishes a connection.
In New \ Select database connection window for following fields iI put:
Hostname = localhost:1521:orcl (I 've tried just putting localhost)
Port = 1521
SID = orcl
In my browser when I am in home page of DB 10g XE the URL reads: http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4500:1000:4313426409493576
When i put hostname = localhost (or either 127.0.0.1) and port = 1521 and SID = orcl, I'm getting error :
status: failure-listener refused the connection with following error - ORA-12505, TNS: listener doesn't currently know of SID given in connect descriptor The connection descriptor used by client was: localhost:1521:orcl .
When I just change the Port to 8080 I get the error:
Status: failure-Io Exception: Got minus one from a read call.
By default DB 10g XE installed in: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\.............
and all the mentioned files (3 files mentioned above) are in: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\NETWORK\ADMIN
Please I know you're all busy but HELP me to fix this problem.
God bless you.
tnx
Sean

Thanks a lot.
Yes. It works well now.
In it's documentation it says put orcl for SID but never thought to try default xe.
You're the man.
tnx

Please help me creating a new listener with different port#.

I have two instances in a server. both have different homes. I want to create a seperate listener for the second one i created.
But that is not happening.
here i tried to give name from LISTENER TO LISTENER1 & Port# from 1521 to 1524.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = /apps2/oracle)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER1 =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = aixth53)(PORT = 1524))
When I check lsnrctl status with LISTENER1 , it still shows the other instance home with port#: 1521
Please help me creating a new listener with different port#.
Thanks,

The listener is a broker only and doesn't play any role in normal communications.
It just forks a process or a thread, and that's it.And the listener is a single point of failure. Listener goes down, you can't connect to the db. That's why you need two listeners.If listener one goes down, then listener two goes down for exact same reason since it is a single executable file.I'm not playing tit-for-tat with you. Fact is, there are situations where people who are not you might want to use more than one listener.Some folks might want to jab a sharp pencil into their eye, too.
Just because you can do something, it does not necessarily mean it should be done.

Personal rant, why do people write the entire problem in topic line
It's not possible with Windows Phone 8. What's the point, a call is coming in and the phone allows you to answer.

I don't understand what this line is doing:
FIRST_VALUE (fn_get_person_id) -- sequence for the functionI have the impression that the only difference with my query is to select distinct values not to consider duplicates. Correct me if I'm wrong.
To me this one should give the same result as your query:
WITH NAMES AS ( /* Scenario1 -- Three dirrerent people so assign Three diffrrent ID, keeping 1 id as is and assign two
new ids from sequence*/

The people on these boards aren't Apple Support and can't do that for you. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Please help me configure a new 8core for FCP

PLEASE HELP A PC GUY MOVE OVER...
I need to configure a new 8-core for FCP mainly. I need to keep the expense reasonable so dont want to spend extra $$$ if i dont have to.
I edit files from many different camera's these days. Mostly weddings & demos.
I want to go with an 8 core either Two 2.26GHz, OR 2.66GHz? Is the 2.2 fast enough with FCP?
How much ram do i need?
Do I need to stripe 2 sata drives together for the video?
Which video card?
Can you recommend any other software/hardware that will help me?
Here is a link to apples spec page:

THANKS

Welcome to the family. if you are not familiar with the Macintosh operating system, get yourself a book.

Either will work fine.

As much as you want but 8G will be adequate. More might not help significantly.
sarecco wrote:

Depends on the video you're trying to use or if you want to do 9 camera multiclips. Maybe.
sarecco wrote:

The stock 4870 is the gold standard for Motion; the current rev of FCP does not care much about the GPU but we are hoping future revs will use the card directly.

Umm, withotu knowing what you need to do, of course not.

Please answer this question:
1. Do you have V.35.0.002 10.11.2009 firmware installed now?
If you do you have the most up to date version available installed, there are no newer versions.
If not you need to install Nokia Suite to check for and install an available update or contact a Nokia Care Point to have this done for your (if possible). If you visit a Care Point I would install Nokia Suite anyway and do a full backup before you go.
The N95 can't do an update over the air so setting up an access point would not help you, assuming that is what you are asking for. Which settings to use depends on which carrier you are with and so you should check their website or call their helpdesk for these settings.
In any other case be more clear on what you need help with or you could contact Nokia Care who will be able to assist you in your native language (normally). You can reach them by phone, mail or chat (where available) through the 'Contact us' section on this page.
