Problem connecting DataBase Link from windows oracle to oracle on Linux

I'm facing a problem with database links from windows oracle to Oracle hosted on Linux server.
I'm able to successfully create the Database Link using the following query on oracle database hosted on a windows server
CREATE DATABASE LINK SampleDB
CONNECT TO myuser IDENTIFIED BY password
USING 'sample';
The tns names entry on windows for database in Linux server is as follows
DSOFT =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.100)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = sample)
But while executing the query "select count(*) from doctor@SampleDB;" in sql developer on windows, I'm getting the following error
SQL Error: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
12154. 00000 - "TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified"
*Cause: A connection to a database or other service was requested using
a connect identifier, and the connect identifier specified could not
be resolved into a connect descriptor using one of the naming methods
configured. For example, if the type of connect identifier used was a
net service name then the net service name could not be found in a
naming method repository, or the repository could not be
located or reached.
Using the above tns entries, i'm successfully able to connect to the database in Linux server through sql developer installed on the windows machine. Then why i'm getting this error while executing the query on Database Link?. Can any one help me?

Can any one help me?A database link is acting as a client to the target, remote database in exactly the same fashion and using exactly the same tns infrastructure as any other client trying to connect to that remote database. your ORA-12154 when querying a db link means exactly the same as if you had gotten it trying to connect with sqlplus, from the same server. Check the link SB provided. Keep in mind that the tnsnames file of concern is the one on the source database server.

Problems connecting i-pod to computer

I am having trouble connecting my i-pod to my computer, everytime I try it comes up with the following message 'USB Device Not Regonized'. I have gone through all the help sections and have reinstalled, restarted etc etc, but none of this has helped. I cannot view my i-pod on my computer or in the source list in i-tunes. I have tried all the USB ports on my computer, but the same message comes up each time with it, I have tested the USB ports with other devices to make sure that they are working ok and they are fine. My next step to maybe solve this problem will be to buy a new USB lead for my i-pod.
Any help would be appreciated as I am getting quite frustrated!
Thanks, Jade

Hi Slim,
This is becos ur drive is not updated.
Go to control panel -> administrative tools ->computer management -> system tools -> device manager -> Universal serial bus controller (expand this) you can see " Unknown device in USB port to which your ipod is connected ", right click and select update drive option. This will update the latest drive in your computer. Restart the machine after updating.

Problems connecting to itunes and windows

I have a 4th generation 20gig ipod and since i ran the most recent update (2005-6-26), itunes wont recognize my ipod. i plug it in and it says do not disconnect, and itunes slows up for a bit like it always does when it recognizes my ipod, and then my ipod isnt recognized. Sometimes it will ask that i update the software. When I tried updating my ipod again, the updater wont recognize my ipod. it just gets stuck on initializing and it stops responding. To see if windows recognizes it, i went to my computer. When i click on the icon for my ipod (which now looks like a little music player with headphones), my computer (the box, not all of windows) stops responding. I reset my ipod by holding down the menu and center buttons, and now all my music is gone, except my ipod says that it has the capacity for 18.4 gb but only has 13.4 gb of space remaining. this makes me wonder what is taking up 5 gb of space on my ipod, since there is no music . Also when i attempt to disconnect my ipod through safely remove hardware, the safely remove hardware box freezes and stops responding, so as of now, to disconnect my ipod, im just physically disconnecting it, and i dont think thats good for the ipod. Help would be greatly appreciated.

I turned off the laptop and it still won't connect. We have comcast, we put our new modem in 2 weeks ago, the laptop is new from Friday. Everything was working fine until I downloaded iTunes. This happened yesterday and my mom clicked on the apple software update and then my wifi connected, so I tried that today, everything is update and it still won't connect. My dads android still connects and the two iPod touches we have still connect. Could it possible be my phone that's the problem? thanks for your help!

Problems connecting iPod touch to windows vista ad-hoc connection

Hi,
This problem has been troubling me since i got my iPod Touch(2nd Gen)
I do not have a wi-fi router,rather i make a ad-hoc connection on my laptop(vista) and share the internet with this wireless ad-hoc connection. I then turn on the wifi on my ipod, which obidiently detects the ad-hoc connection, and after entering the password(WEP) connects to the network(i even get that signal bar indicator on the ipod). But when i try to open a website,it says "Safari cannot open the webpage as it is not connected to the internet". This is really frustrating. I've searched like a zillion places but not able to find the solution to the problem.
All the setting are automatic(DHCP) which includes my wired internet, my wireless network and my ipod settings.
Plz help guyz.
Thanks,
Aditya

Having problems connecting iMac(late 2006) running 10.7.5 to a Samsung Flat Screen TV using separate audio/speaker cable and HDMI standard cable, mini-DVI to HDMI video converter. TV displays generic Apple galaxy background and "some" windows (e.g. screen resolution choices). It does not show Mail or Safari menus. System preferences' display "gathered" the Samsung and chose its resolution. I did not find a way to select the Samsung as my display.
In addition to having old hardware, we have Verizon FIOS providing internet and TV access. Is there any way to make this work for us? We would like to stream video (Netflix) and view shows from the Web. Do we need Apple TV to do this? Or is it not possible with our old iMac? My husband thinks that our Airport could be a factor.
Thank you

Lately, I have been seeing a lot of posts with users trying to use their Macs/iMacs to mirror their streaming video from their Macs to an HDTV.
There are, actually, many alternatives to choose from than just from a Mac.
You need to have or invest in a WiFi capable router for all of these examples.
Apple TV only integrates with WiFi and newer Mac hardware. So, if you want to have total integrated experience, if you have a 2011 Mac or newer, you might as well pay the $100 for the AppleTV box.
If you have a older Mac, like I have noticed many users do, then you have other options.
If you want to elimate long cable clutter and having your Mac at the mercy of your TV all of the time, you can still use the AppleTV box independently or purchase cheaper alternative media streaming boxes from Roku, Sony, Boxee or any number of electronics manufacturers that now have media streaming boxes and media streaming capability built into DVD/Blu-ray players.
These eliminate long cable clutter by being close to the HDTV where shorter, less expensive cables can be used.
Another alternative for iPad users is to use an iPad with the USB/HDMI video adapter and use your iPad as the streaming box. This ties up your iPad in much the same way as it does with your Mac, but again the iPad can be close to the TV and use minimal cables to the TV.
Another alternative to is to use a combination of an iPad and your Mac to stream content that is only available to stream online from a computer. In this case, you can use a desktop remote app on your iPad and Mac. A good and cheap Desktop Remote app is Splashtop Remote. This allows you to completely connect your iPad remotely, over Wifi, to your iMac desktop. The app streams both video and sound to the iPad which is still connected to your HDTV. The resultant stream video picture will be smaller than the size of your HDTV, but it will still be plenty large enough to watch. Again, if you own a iPad and an Intel Mac, this method also allows minimal cabling to the TV.

Got a new MacBook pro but for some reason I can't connect to my schools wireless. It doesn't have a problem connecting to any other wifi. My schools network is unsecured all you do is login with your username and password but the window never loads

I jus got a MacBook pro and Im having trouble connecting to my schools network. It is not secured and only requires to login with school id. A Window pops up to sign in but it never loads anyone know why I'm having this problem? Doesn't have a problem connecting to any other wifi

"This is a flaw in OS X Lion. It does not want to connect to open WiFi that has a login page that open in a browser."
Nonsense, no problems logging in at sites that you mention. I use OpenDNS servers. For the OP try:
System Preferences>Network>Advanced>DNS. In the left side column click on the + sign and insert the following:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then click OK, then click Apply.

Installed OSX 10.9.5 Error: "There was a problem connecting to the server "SERVER"" When connecting to Windows Server

Installed OSX 10.9.5 on three MacBookPRO's now all of them have lost access to our Windows 2003 Server. I get the message "There was a problem connecting to the server "SERVER". Note this was previously connecting with 10.9.4.
I understand 10.9.5 was giving us improvements in the reliability of SMB2 but this is now much worse.
Help!

Hi, i am having a problem in my ipad 2 , it is not showing main screen just showing a black blank screen in which downloading icon is only shwn which is continously and when i connect to itunes via windows 7 it showing this error (0xE8000065) can any one

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

Problem connecting from Windows XP to 10.4.7 server.

I have an old G4 tower running as a server. I had OS Xserver 10.3.x running on a single disk in this machine. Everything worked fine.
I then inserted a mirrored disk pair in the machine and installed OS X server 10.4.7. The machine is set up as a standalone server.
When connecting from a Mac I can use both AFP and SMB to connect to the fileservices.
But when trying to connect to the fileservices using smb from Windows XP machines only a few of them can actually see the server in Network Neighbourhood. And none of them seems to be able to connect.
I can though ping the servers IP from the Window machines.
Do you have any Ideas that could help me solve this problem?
TIA
Hans

I also have a problem with people unable to connect via FTP from Windows.
My computer is set up as a Standalone Server. When I click the Windows button in Workgroup Manager for a user, the dialog says:
"Only a user with a password type 'Open Directory' may have a WIndows profile or home directory. You can change the user's password type on the Advanced tab."
But the Advanced tab only offers one password type: Shadow Password.
Note that this WAS working correctly for some time. I updated to Server 10.4.4 a while back. I don't think my single Windows user has accessed since the update. I'm trying add a new Windows user now and he can't connect because of this problem.
Please point me to a document to help me correctly configure this.

Problems Connecting Apple Bluetooth Devices in Windows using BootCamp

People are having trouble connecting bluetooth devices in windows 7 while using bootcamp. I solved the problem by clicking on bluetooth>ADD A DEVICE once windows has detected the bluetooth device you want to add. Now, right click on the device you are adding (make sure it's "inside the add bluetooth
Device window "see below" ) it will say "select your device". Then tick the box beside "drivers for Keyboard, Mice etc.," under "Bluetooth Services" (see below) and it will search the internet for your drivers and automatically install them. If you have any problems post a message. Good Luck

Not sure if you can help me, but I can't add my phone or some bt speakers to my MBA2011 in bootcamp. Drivers can't be found...and this is usually a problem of the bt controller drivers, not the device.
It does seem the apple bt drivers are gimped in bootcamp.

Problem Connecting to Shared Printer on Leopard from Windows XP

Hey guys,
Just installed Leopard yesterday, and I have a Canon PIXMA MP160 printer connected via USB.
I have set the printer to be Shared, and enabled Printer Sharing in the Sharing preferences.
However, when I try and connect to the printer from a Windows XP laptop, it says: Access Denied, Unable to Connect.
I imagine that this is because I would have provide a username / password combo in order to access the network resources on my Leopard machine. I just can't figure out how to send the credentials, or disable the login necessity if needs be.
If this isn't the problem, or if it cannot be fixed then the alternative is to connect the printer to my router, which shares it via SMB. Now that's fine when I want to connect to it from Windows, but I can't figure out a way to set it up on Leopard.
The MP160 driver that comes with Leopard isn't marked as "Modern" which, according to the documentation means that it cannot be used to install IP or Windows Shared printers.
So my question is, to sum up, is there a way to fix the access problem when trying to access a shared printer on Leopard from Windows, and is there any way I can install and use the printer from Leopard while its shared from my Router via SMB?
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
I just thought it would be helpful to say that I'm able to connect and browse through SMB shares from Windows Systems, and I'm able to connect and browse through shared volumes on Leopard from Windows. It's just the printing that's not playing fair.

I had Bonjour for Windows working on two XP machines before I upgraded to Leopard. After that when the Bonjour printer would not work I deleted it from the XP machines and re-ran the Bonjour Setup App. It can find the printer every time, but it will not finish and will give me an error instead.
I've also verified that I have Printer Sharing turned on and the printer is specifically set to be shared. I'm out of ideas.
Has anyone heard reports of Bonjour 1.0.4 not working with Leopard or just being buggy under similar circumstances? If that's not the problem, then I must be missing something. Suggestions welcome.

Just got Mac book pro. I can't connect to office remotely thru the remote window. My office is window based and I have no problem connecting while at the office thru the server but cannot at home. Any help would be appreciated!

This what my IT replied with:
That teh MacBook cannot connect with RWW because it requires Active-X to connect. That MAc browsers (Safari) do not use Active-X but only Windows (IE) uses Active-X control.
It would seem to me that there must be a way around this. Any help?
Thanks,

FYI - all of us with problems connecting ipod to windows

A bit of information for all of us that their ipods have stopped being recognised by windows!
I have done the 5 r's 4 times, reinstalled all drivers on windows etc etc ... still not being recognised!!
I have just called Apple Tech support and when I told them the date it stopped working and all the steps Ihave carried out, guess what .. they said send it back as there may be a technical problem with the hard drive on the ipod!!
Thought i'd let you all know!!

Hey everyone
I have been fighting with this problem all night and have eventually solved the problem. The 5 R's sort of works but here is the solution. The problem rests with the latest version of the iPod updater software AND Microsoft's new Windows Defender as well which seem to have had an adverse effect on the software and iPod and how it behaves.
If you are having problems getting the iPod to be recognised on Windows follow the following guidance to uninstall iTunes completely
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716
You need to start with a blank sheet and get rid of iTunes and clean up all previous installs of it. Make sure you also remove the iPod for Windows software too. Download the LATEST version of iTunes from the Apple web site (I think its 6.0.3) and install it on your machine.
Then, with the CD that came with your 5th Gen iPod install the iPod for Windows software that came on it. Don't worry about what version of iPod software you have on the iPod - it is fine - you can have up to 26-01-06 version which is what I have.
Connect up your iPod - Windows probably still wont recognise it. Don't worry here is the added solution and what the problem is.
The iPod has somehow become disabled in the Hardware profiles on Windows by the recent updates. Let the iPod be connected to your PC for at least 15 secs.
1. Go to My Computer icon on the desktop and right mouse click - go to Properties.
2. On the System Properties window that comes up click on the Hardward Tab.
3. Go to the Device Manager button and click it.
4. Under the listing that comes up do to Disk Drives. Click on the + icon to expand the list. You will now see Apple iPod listed (NB If you have any other external hard drives normally connected to your PC disconnect them beforehand so the drive letter that will be assigned to the iPod is E: - after this problem is fixed you can reattach any external drives fine)
5. You should find that the Apple iPod drive is disabled (has a red cross over it)
6. To enable it, right mouse click on its icon and select, enable.
7. This will cause the iPod to be recognised by Windows and then iTunes should start up as normal.
FOR THOSE WHO DONT SEE THE IPOD IN THE HARD DRIVE LIST:
1. Go to Add New Hardware and the plug and play properties should find the iPod and add it with the relevant hard drive drivers.
Hope this helps everyone!
