Problems connecting - 9i and Win XP Pro

First off, I am a super duper beginner so I understand nothing of this application. I have Win XP Pro and have learned that 8i has issues with P4's so downloaded 9i instead of using the 8i CD I have. I also have the CD for Forms and Reports 6i also. My reason for the installation is a database programming class I am taking. At the current time I have 9i installed and I also installed 6i though am unsure if 9i will work with 6i. I tried to connect to SQL Plus using the username, pw, and hostname my professor gave me and I got an error msg saying "ORA-12541 TNS:no listener" BUT when I check the listener control thing and tell it to start the listener I get an error because it says it has already started and if i stop it and then start it again I still get the same message. I am able to log on to SQL using the generic username and password "Scott" and "tiger" with no hostname but I am unsure if this means anything as I know my info is correct. I am wondering if anyone can help me out. I no nothing about this application to be able to troubleshoot further and also am wondering if 9i will work with 6i. Thanks for reading this far and thanks in advance for any assistance. I think I have installed this app 3 times now and would love to get it all working properly so I can do my assignments....

Thanks for the reply. He gave us each our own usernames, our own passwords and the hostname to connect to the school. The school dns or ip address, either one, is not his it is the school's oracle server. I used my username and password and it gave me the listener error. In order for me to work from home I have to connect to the school's oracle server, i can't leave it blank. Does that make sense? Thanks again.

    You really have to mess with the resoluton, espescially the refresh rate, as it varies from projector to projector, monitor to monitor. Even within the same brand! Because so many manufacturers are trying so many different things to become the next cool kid on the block, and the way the formats are being configured that's now part of the game.
    That's why so many professionally produced corporate shows hire a dedicated projectionist for the video presentations. Too many bugs in the honey.
    Refresh & sesolution are the first things to look at.
    Just so you know that colors in PowerPoint PC, and PowerPoint Mac, don't exactly match... go figure.
    I forgot to mention another thing, sometimes it's the projector that needs to be tweaked.

  • Running Dual boot windows 8 and win 7 pro with xp mode installed!! I love it!!

    It took over 2 days to figure out how to adjust the bios to get my win 7 pro DVD to boot and install dual boot on this GREAT MACHINE!!
    Step 1: using diskmgmt.msc you have to shring the C partition. I shrunk it so I had 80GB remaining as unallocated space.
    Step 2: You have to enter the machine Bios adn set the BIOS to Both and UEFI as first
    Step 3: Connect your usb dvd
    Step 4: Put your win 7 pro dvd in the usb dvd drive
    Step 5: Reboot your machine and when it starts press F12 to get the boot menu and select the usb dvd drive then press enter
    The machine restarts
    Message on screen says press a key to boot from cd/dvd
    Press space and it boots up the win 7 pro DVD
    After files copy and load the setup screen asks to accept the agreement and where to install win 7
    BE SURE TO SELECT THE 80GB location
    Then follow thru the win 7 prompts to load it.
    When the machine restarts you will see a dual boot screen with Windows 7 on top as first selection and Windows 8 below it as 2nd selection.
    Make sure to hit enter with windows 7 selected
    The win 7 installation completes.
    You will see many items with drivers not installed dont fret.
    You can load most of the drivers by highlighting the device in control panel/device manager and pick update driver then select BROWSE for DRIVER and be sure to put in drive D:\ which is now the windows 8 drive and hit search.
    Many of the windows 8 drivers installed with no issue.
    The Realtek driver was an exception .. goto to the lenovo site and pick the x100e tablet and download the LAN driver from there  about (4MB). Copy it to flash drive and install it in win 7 from the .exe file. The driver for LAN will install sucessfully. The version of the driver is 7.46 something the 7.11 versions do not workl.
    I have only 3 drivers that I could not find - 2 list as unknown and are related to ACPI or power management and 1 lists as USB controller but all the USB stuff works without it.
    Be sure to either shutdown the system or sign out of win 8 when your done so you get the dual boot menu. If you shutdown while logged into win 8 the next time you start up it will go right to win 8 until you signout and restart.
    Just to let you know an easy way to shutdown is go to the desktop and press ALT + FN + F4 and a shutdown menu comes up on the desktop.
    Once win 7 pro is installed you can download the XP mode free from Microsoft and install it.
    This is of course AFTER you have ACTIVATED WINDOWS 7 ONLINE with YOUR ACTIVATION KEY(you supply).
    ENJOY! This is the BEST machine I ever had!

    It's been many, many years since I don't do dual boot anymore. Don't find the reason to do it, either. Different kinds of virtualization should be enough. Anyway...

  • Win 7 Pro not connecting to remote Win 7 pro via port 3389

    I have a new Dell XPS 8700 Win Pro 64 bit that will not connect to work machine of same specs, i.e, XPS 8700 Win 7 Pro. Ironically an old lap top running XP Pro
    will connect to work computer. I have a new Dell laptop with Win 8.1 pro that will not connect either.  I tried everything, uninstalled Symantec End point, shut off the Windows Firewall, did a complete
    hardware check via Dell Diagnostics, made sure network discovery was on as well as all remote services, turned on RD, changed every setting on the  RD dialog box, pinged the external IP and it timed out. None of the forums seem to have an answer and I
    am at wits end. I set up 15 machines at work under Win 7 for RD and all are working with Win 7 Pro.

    Hello Al Wayne,
    What is your current situation?
    Please share us more information for better analyzation as Frederik Long mentioned.
    Do you mean that the Dell XPS 8700 and laptop can’t RDP to work Windows 7 machines, but the Windows XP laptop can RDP to?
    Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
    1. Share us the result of command ipconfig /all in the source and destination computers
    2. Check if we can ping the Windows 7 machines from the Dell XPS 8700 and laptop

  • Self Service Purchasing 5 and Win XP Pro

    Hi,
    Just like to ask, can SSP5 run on WIN XP Pro?
    Cheers
    Jerry

    YOu don't need to use the get connected wizard everytime you connect, only once, after the first connection you are automatically connected when you connect the cable.
    (in fact, you really don't need to use the get connected wizard with cable even in the first connection, because windows will pick up the phone via the cable and install the necessary drivers anyhow, the wizard is there just to help first time users to find the way how to handle the connection.
    (just a note, with Bluetooth you need to make the connection between phone and PC Suite once with get Connected Wizard, but not after that even with Bluetooth)
    Anyways, if you have a uncertain outcome each time you connect you:
    - most likely have a non-Nokia cable that is bad quality, there are plenty to duff cable out there "in ebays"
    - or the mechanical connection between the phone and cable is uncertain

    does j2ee1.3.1 work on win xp pro? the setup doc seemed a little weak. does anyone have a detailed setup/install doc they would like to share? may be something with some screen shots so i can tell if i have everything running correctly.

    I don't recall any difficulty at all in installing it- it's essentially an automatic install. The caveat, on the download page above, is to use it with J2SE v1.3.1_02 or v1.4.

  • Problems with KT4V and AtiRadeon 9700 Pro...

    Hi all,
    I have lots of problems with my current configuration with games (lock ups) and even in normal use. Also I'm not able to run 3DMark through to see with kind of results would I get. Car chase (high) gets very low fps and the nature test doesn't even work. I have tried different 4in1 drivers and BIOS versions. With 1.6 BIOS version I had lots of CRC errors (should be corrected in BIOS ver. 1.7 but in expense of data rate?).  Does anyone have any suggestions so that I could for example go through the 3DMark even with the expense of performance?
    I had those game lock up problems also earlier with KT7A-100 RAID + AtiRadeon 64 (3DMark worked) so I bought new graphic card (didn't help) and after that I bought the new mobo. I know my config is not the best in the world, but I think it should be enough to give some happy moments in ever so demanding games... for a while...
    There is also one thing that is quite strange. In my display adapters there is two drivers for AtiRadeon (primary in AGP and secondary in PCI)? I'm not expert, but isn't that weird? I have tried installing different drivers again and again (also reinstalled OS) with no luck! Trying to delete the secondary one doesn't help...
    Help..........!

    MSI KT4V (MS-6712)  4in1 Hyperion 4.45, BIOS ver 1.0

    i would lbe looking at some think like an antec true powe 430 watt psu not a basic 300 watter
    with ati,s own cards you need revision 1.3 as well best i can recall,but yours is an oem so im not sure

  • Problem connecting to a HP OfficeJet Pro 8500a

    I am attempting to get a HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909a installed on my system. The printer is succesfuly connected via ethernet to our router, my iMac (10.8.2) can easily see the device but when I attempt to connect it wants to download and install drivers from Apple, when I select Download & Install I get a message that says:
    Can't install the software for the HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
    I have attempted over several days to and also downloaded and successfuly installed the January 13, 2013 HP Printer Drivers v.2.13 for OS X however that still does not work. Looking at Apple's Printer and scanner software available for download it appears the device is supported but I'm not getting anywhere.
    My system is a 2011 27" iMac, 24GB RAM, Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
    Anyone have some ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Roger

    Hi Roger. Two actions that have helped some users in the past with the same issue.
    1. Reset the printing system
    2. Trash the contents of the HP folder in /Library/Printers
    For some the reset has been enough but I've also had some cases where the removal of existing driver content is necessary.
    I'm not sure what list 10.8 looks at to determine if it already has the driver installed. It appears that it doesn't check the contents of /Library/Printers, otherwise it should see the driver is already present on the Mac for most users, since they have installed the HP Driver update as you have done.

  • Problem with Itunes and new Macbook Pro

    I just purchased a Macbook Pro, my first Apple computer ever though I have other Apple products (iPad, iPod, iPhone).  All of my iTunes music and playlists are on my Dell PC at work.  My hope is to transfer my music to my new Mac (at home) so that I have more room for actual work items on my computer at the office. 
    I had no trouble transferring the songs (via my iPod) the songs are there but the playlists are not listed on my new computer (the Mac).  Is Mac compatible with making playlists in iTunes and if so how can I get those lists back other than paistakingly creating all 45 play lists one by one again?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Do you have an external hard drive?  If you do, connect the drive to the PC.  Copy the iTunes Folder and all the media and various library files it contains from the PC to the drive.  Connect the drive to the Mac.  Copy the folder and replace the folder on the Mac in your Home > Music with the one from the PC.  Start iTunes and it will now be pretty much identical to the one that was on the PC.  Caution: If you have put things on the Mac that were not on the PC then you will need to change the process a bit.

  • X220 Problems after upgrade to Win 8 Pro

     Hi all,
    Two weeks ago I upgraded OS on my ThinkPad X220 (model 428759G, BIOS 1.37) to Windows 8 Pro X64. After upgrade I did “factory reset” (function of Windows 8), because I preferred clean installation.
    Then there were installed all updates via Windows Update service. After that I installed drivers and software from Lenovo via Lenovo System Update and Avira Antivirus Premium 2013.
    Now I deal with the a few problems.
    1) Every day (several times a day) this service C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Lenovo Mobile Hotspot\LnvHotSpotSvc.exe stops working. More information is below (sorry for Czech language).

    2) From this webpage http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-77280 I downloaded and installed the Hotkey Features Integration (version 3.84.1500). But not all of FN keys work properly.
    For example Fn+F8 doesn’t switch off touchpad or trackpoint, FN+F5 doesn’t switch off Bluetooth or WiFi – only both of them are switched off (via Airplane mode in Windows 8). If I want to switch off Bluetooth I can do it via controls in Windows 8. But I don’t understand why Bluetooth light is still on.
    3) Sometimes if laptop is woke up from sleep or hibernation mode, the system service ntoskrnl.exe (NT Kernel & System) uses CPU with 30% (fan is on high speed).  Only restart fixes this problem.
    Does anyone have similar problems?

    Mobile hotspot error confirmed (but not important for me ).
    Keys are working fine for me. BUT: I use old driver for Windows 7. The new one from January, 18th with Windows 8 look works as you described.
    Btw. I dont like Bios - express card witn USB 3.0 NEC  PD720200a is not working at all.

  • Problems connecting iMac and iWire to Sony PlayStation 3

    Hi. Simple issue. I cannot for the life of me get my Sony PS3 to connect to my iWire local network at home, which otherwise I've never had any problems with.
    When I go through the (simple) setup procedure on the PlayStation, it locates my network, then asks me for my WLAN Key Settings, giving me the options of None, WEP and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK. I try entering my iWire password into the system as a WEP key (which I think is right), then it says it's not recognised and prompts me to put in hexadecimal settings (?). I try the same thing on the WPA option, again, it doesn't work. I've also tried putting in my Airport Express password, see if that changes anything, but it doesn't
    I couldn't see a topic heading on this subject heading through a search, so forgive me if it's already been answered elsewhere. Anyway, I'm stumped, so if anyone's connected successfully, could they share how they did it and what exactly a WEP key is! [Incidentally, I posted this earlier, but I believe in the wrong section]

    Thanks. My Airport Express is providing the wireless network - and on my Playstation, it comes up as Robert's Wireless Network (what I've called my AE network) and I put in what I know is the correct password for that network, but it comes up as unrecognised, even though I'm sure I've put in the correct word. So, if as you say I'm doing the right thing, then maybe I'm entering the information wrong, or need to add something to my standard WEP password?
