Retrieving data from a dead iMac

How do I retrieve the data from my white iMac G5 that has a fried logic board? Can I do this myself? And if so how?

Since the logic board is fried, you can perform a post-mortem yourself.
Go to ifixit.com, and find the instructions to remove the HD. NO warranty, and unit dead ... who cares if you crack the shell.
Then buy an external enclosure from macsales.com such as this one (http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/FWU3ES2HDK/) or others you find by going to macsales.com and typing "enclosures" in the search box. Ths will access the old drive as "external".

Recovering Data from a dead iMac G5

My iMAC G5 has had it's second logic board failure in the past 1.5 years. The repair shop says it's going to cost $550 to repair, and Apple's not going to cover a 2nd board replacement under the extension program. Given that the computer's 4 years old, and was originally only worth $1200, I think I'm going to get a new Mac.
My question is, how do I recover data from the hard drive of the old Mac? I don't want to lose all of my files from iTunes, iPhoto, etc. The Hard Drive is apparently fine, but the Mac won't boot up in its current state. Thanks in advance for your help.

Remove the hard drive and put it in an external hard drive enclosure. Then connect it to your new Mac and recover the files.

Migrating data from a dead iMac

My 2006 iMac has died. The display does not work anymore. I have a new mini on order and I have a couple of questions about migrating the data from the HDD on my old iMac to my mini.
I do Have a time machine backup on a separate drive. I could not find anything that spoke about migrating to a new Mac from a time machine backup.
my questions are.
can I migrate from my old iMac to my new mini using a time machine backup?
can I select what data I wish to migrate?
how can I deauthorize the old iMa?
thanks

One of the first screens that will appear when you start up the new Mac will say "do you want to restore from another Mac or Time Machine backup?". Select that and follow the prompts. I could be mistaken, but I don't believe you can select what data is migrated (only what date you restore it from). Older system files will not be migrated (ie, your new Mac will have whatever OS it shipped with, not that of your old iMac).
if the old iMac powers up, you may still be able to migrate from it. Hold down T on its keyboard as you boot it up, and connect a FireWire cable (with Thunderbolt adaptor for the new iMac) across the two computers. You should be able to choose it as a migration source when you start up the new iMac; if you skip the migration at setup, you can try again using Migration ASsistant from the Utilities folder. Doing a migration instead of Time Machine recovery should give you a little more control over what gets migrated. Or you can skip automatic migration altogether if you want to select specific documents and files and do manual copying from one to the other (this won't work with applications).
Your last option would be to physically remove the Mac's hard drive and put it in an external enclosure (probably USB3 is cheapest) if you want to do a migration but can't power up the old iMac.
Unless you can connect an external monitor to the old imac to get it working, you might have to skip iTunes deauthorization until you have 5 computers authorized, at which time you can deauthorize them all from your iTunes account screen (and then re authorize the ones you're using).

Trying to retrieve data from a dead computer.

The computer is a 1.25Ghz PowerBook G4 (about 5 years old) running 10.3.9.
The computer crashed and will not start. It reaches the apple logo with the rotating meter, but will then sit there pretty much as long as I'm willing to wait (more than an hour at least).
The last time this happened I used disk utility on the restore disk to repair the permissions, which solved the problem. However, this time it hasn't. The permissions were repaired successfully, but the computer still will not start. I then tried running the disk verify and found several errors, however, when running the disk repair, it immediately hits an error and stops. Now it won't even verify the disk without getting an error.
Next I tried just reinstalling the system software (without erasing the disk). It completes the disk verify, but then errors right at the start of the install.
I would be willing to just erase the disk, but my wife has pics of our daughter on the computer that haven't been backed up yet and she doesn't want to lose them.
I have tried using the Target Disk option, but the PowerBook's HD took about 5 minutes to mount and then I was not able to read anything from it. The computer I connected to just sat there "thinking" for about 15 minutes. I'm guessing the PowerBook crashed because the Firewire symbol stopped floating on the screen as soon the disk mounted. I tried it twice with the same result.
I have also tried installing the system software to both USB 2.0 and Firewire 400 external hard drives and the installer tells me it cannot install to that drive.
The computer does suffer from a fried RAM slot (occured about 2.5 years ago and it has never been as stable since) and a fried logic board fan.
Anyhow, then question is, is there anything else I can try? Is the Hard Drive fried? Can the data be retrieved without advanced super computers and a multi-million dollar budget?
Thanks

hobbie2k:
I suspect the the internal HDD of your PowerBook G4 has died. The average life of these drives is 3 to 5 years, so you got about as much from it as you could reasonably expect. A new HDD should revive the computer.
As to the files you are trying to retrieve, if you plan to replace the HDD, you can place it in an external firewire enclosure after it has been removed and connect it to a working computer, download a demo version of DataRescue II, mentioned by Limnos, and see if any of the files you want to rescue are visible. If you see them you will have to purchase the license to be able to complete the process. Dr. Smoke's FAQ Data Recovery is a good resource for this procedure.

Retrieving data from a dead Treo 650

Hi! I'm REALLY hoping someone can help.
I bought a new phone last week (not a palm, after a serious amount of agonizing...I've been with palm since the palm III). I'd had my 650 for four years, and it had served me well.
Not two days after I bought the new phone, the 650 simply stopped working. Nothing would convince it to turn on. I've tried:
1. Pushing any and all button combinations
2. Soft resets, both plugged into the wall and on its own
3. Charging it overnight from the wall
4. Charging it overnight from my computer
5. Put my wife's 650's battery (her 650 still works) into my phone. (her phone also works with my battery, so i'm pretty sure it's not a battery issue)
I haven't tried any hard-reset sorts of combinations (obviously).
Nothing brings this poor device to life. The problem is, my ENTIRE life is on that phone, and, being the forward-thinking man that I am, I hadn't hot-synced the device to my computer since I got a new computer (please, no chastising...I know it was stupid). This means, the data on the device ONLY exists on the device.
I've read through these forums...there haven't been too many people with this issue, but the answers they've been given have been uniformly depressing. Does anyone know of a trick to retrieving the data (even if it involves paying someone else to do it)? At this point, I don't care about the phone...it's my contacts and my memos that I want back.
Fingers crossed.
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

I think your 650 is just scorned because you replaced it ! My 680 did the same thing last year and I was without a phone for 2 days. I just plugged it in and left it there and a couple of days later it turned on by itself. I later realized it was a bad battery. I know you've tried other batteries, I'm just telling you what mine did. Oh and it did it with the wall charger, the car charger never woke it up during my 10 hour drive to my country home.

Retrieve data from a synonym in oracle database through db connect

Hi Everyone,
I have created certain synonym for some tables in oracle. I want to retrieve data from it through db connect but where through source system and then selecting database tables, only tables and views are available.
Synonyms are not available to create data sources and retrieve the data from it. Why is it so. Is this a limitation of db connect.
Can anyone please let me know about it.
Thanks,
Joshua.

Hi,
You want to import data from an external Oracle database into your BW 3.X. To do this, you can connect the external database to the BW 3.X release as a source system using the external database connect. BW 3.X here represents BW 3.0, BW 3.1 and BW 3.5 because in other (DB relevant) parts, all 3 versions are based on the same source code.
General information
The above function allows you to load data from an external Oracle database (not a BW database) into your BW 3.0 system.
There may also be constellations which cannot be used directly through the DB Connect access. However, it should be possible to find an adequate, customer-specific solution for most of these scenarios.
In such situations, the resulting work falls into the area of Consulting and cannot be handled via Support.
Successful implementation of a connection requires corresponding expertise and experience in the use of the source database in the areas:
                - Tools
                - SQL syntax
                - DB-specific functions
Corresponding knowledge of the source application is also required to ensure that semantically relevant data arrives in the BW system.
Procedure
You should execute the following steps to connect the source system (Q) to the BW system (BW):
Installing the client software on an BW application server
                     Of course, you only need to install the client software if you are using BW with a non-Oracle database.
                     Use the Oracle setup program on the database CD (runInstaller on Unix) to start the OracleInstaller. Follow the program instructions and the DB installation instructions to install the Oracle Client software on BW.
Testing connection setup from BW to Q
                     After you install the client software on BW, try to set up a connection from BW to the server on Q. You may need to adjust the tnsnames.ora or sqlnet.ora files for this, to introduce the Oracle systems (to which contact should be made) to BW. You can test the connection by executing the command "tnsping QDB" on BW to check whether the client has established contact to the QDB database on the Q system.
Creating a separate U user in Q
                     We recommend that you create a separate U user in Q for connection to BW. This means that authorization and administration questions can be solved centrally.
Displaying data sources in Q for the U user
                     To provide U data for users other than U, you can create views on other user tables as user U:
                     CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW viewname AS
                       SELECT * FROM QDB.tablename
                     You may have to grant SELECT privileges to user U in the QDB schema:
                        GRANT select ON QDB.tablename TO U
                     Of course, you can also restrict or reformat data in the view arrangement (for example, change from internal date format into the SAP date format). JOIN operations using several tables are also available.
                     !!! Synonyms do not yet work!!!
                     Synonyms that you can create as described below are another option for providing a complete table for the user U:
                       CREATE SYNONYM synoname FOR QDB.tablename
                     !!! Synonyms do not (yet) work!!!
                     After you have displayed the require data for user U, you can simply use
                       SELECT * FROM <view or table>
                     on the Q system to check which data is returned.
                     You can now open a link to Q as user U in the BW system with SQLPLUS and check, using the same SELECT, whether this data is also seen in the Oracle client. If this is not the case, there is probably a connection problem.
Creating a connection from BW to Q in BW
Including data sources of user U user in Q in BW.
Solution
Supported BW, Basis and BW 3.0B database versions, Basis 6.20 Support Package 2 (or higher)
      Oracle 8.1 (or higher, see below)
Possible problems
- Synonyms do not (yet) work!
Up to now, only tables and views have been used as data sources for the DB Connect from the R3 Basis. As soon as synonyms are also used in the Basis, you will be able to convert created views (or even replicated tables) to synonyms as a workaround.
With Basis 6.40 at the earliest, therefore as of BW 3.5, you will also be able to use synonyms. Until then, the following will help:
CREATE VIEW <view_on_synonym> AS SELECT * FROM <synonym>
- The source DB must have at least the release version of the BW DB.
Oracle only ensures the support of client-server links if the version of the client is not higher than that of the server. So if BW has Oracle version 8.1 and, as in the case of Dbconnect, is run as a client against the server of the source database, the source database must have at least release Oracle 8.1 or higher.
Of course, you have the option to install the Oracle client software of a lower version and then use this for the DB connect. This is also the procedure used to work with a DB connect on external databases of other vendors.
Furthermore, the implementation of the DBconnect function in BW uses SAP Basis functions. Specifications of Oracle 8.1 database catalogs are used here. The source database must therefore have at least Version 8.1.
- Oracle Client Software Version
If you want to connect from an Oracle BW DB to an Oracle source DB, for the DB connect you naturally use the client software that you already installed on each application server.
If you want to connect from a non-Oracle BW DB to an Oracle source DB, check item 3 of note 521230 to see which Oracle client software version is released with your BW R3 kernel and use this version.
- Date and time fields in Oracle and their conversion into SAP-compatible column formats
Example with a DATE field:
Since a SAP table does not have a DATE field (date values are NUMC(8) and time specifications are NUMC(6)), we will use the Oracle DBA_TABLES system table as an example.
    SQL> desc dba_tables;
The Oracle DBA_TABLES system table has a LAST_ANALYZED field. This is a DATE type field and is recognized as a date field of 7 characters by DBA_CONNECT. However, the import does not work because the DATE is a 7-byte conglomerate of "...century, year, month, date, hour, minute and second." (extract from the Oracle documentation).
To make this DATE field legible for DB connect, you must use the TO_CHAR function in a VIEW. This should display the following examples:
SQL> select LAST_ANALYZED from dba_tables
      where table_name like 'RS%' and rownum < 10 ;
The formatting used here is the default used implicitly by SQLPLUS.
SQL> select to_char(LAST_ANALYZED,'YYYYMMDD') as dat from dba_tables where table_name like 'RS%' and rownum < 10 ;
The result now has the SAP compatible format YYYYMMDD and should be loaded correctly by the DB connect as a date.
SQL> select to_char(LAST_ANALYZED,'HH24MISS') as tim from dba_tables where table_name like 'RS%' and rownum < 10 ;
The result now has the SAP compatible format HHMMSS and should be loaded correctly by the DB connect as a time.
You can use the following example for more detailed experiments:
SQL> select to_char(
       TO_DATE('03-FEB-2001 04:05:06','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),
       'YY-MM-DD HH24-MI-SS') as datim from dual;
with the result:
DATIM
01-02-03 04-05-06
When you create a VIEW and use the TO_CHAR function (or other functions), you should easily be able to avoid problems with the interpretation of date/time specifications (and other reformatting).
Details about the functions and the formats are contained in the Oracle documentation.
- Special characters
A words that contain special characters can only be imported correctly if the code pages in BW and in the source system are identical. If the code pages are not the same, DB Connect can be used if the characters to be imported appear under the first 127 characters of the character set.
The use of multibyte code pages in the source system for saving data using character sets with more than 256 characters (Kanji, Katakana, Hiragana, Korean, Chinese, Tagalog, Khmer, Arabic, Cherokee, and so on) can cause the characters to become corrupt.
For questions concerning the code pages, also refer to the FAQ note 606359 and question/answer 19 that appears there.

Retrieve data from a dynamic page via loadURL

Hello.
I would like to ask you how it is possible to retrieve data
from a dynamic page (asp classic in my case) using the loadURL
method.
I would like to create an html authentication form (with
username and password fields). The loadURL method should call an
asp page and then pass to the usual function 'DoIfSucceded' the
results of the elaboration.
Of course I'm going to have a switch in the function in order
to make different actions depending from the results of the asp
page (authentication succeded or failed).
I had a look to the examples at this page:
Adobe
samples
Is there anyone who can explain clearly how the results data
must be written by the asp page and how the success function can
retrieve them ?
I thank you in advance for your help.

loadURL() uses the the XMLHttpRequest Object so if the
content you return is XML, you have 2 choices for accessing your
data. You can either access it as a text string via the
XMLHttpRequest object's responseText property, or as a DOM document
via the XMLHttpRequest object's responseXML property:
function MySuccessCallback(req)
// If my data is XML, I can access the data that was sent
from the server
// as DOM elements via the XMLHttpRequest's responseXML
property.
var xmlDOM = req.xhRequest.responseXML;
// OR, you can access the data sent back from the server as
text via
// the XMLHttpRequest object's responseText property.
var xmlAsAString = req.xhRequest.responseText;
var req = Spry.Utils.loadURL("GET",
"/app/book.php?id=1&code=54321", true, MySuccessCallback);
If your serverside script wants to use some other format as a
response like JSON or plain text, then you can only access the data
as text via the responseText property.

Retrieve data from a large table from ORACLE 10g

I am working with a Microsoft Visual Studio Project that requires to retrieve data from a large table from Oracle 10g database and export the data into the hard drive.
The problem here is that I am not able to connect to the database directly because of license issue but I can use a third party API to retrieve data from the database. This API has sufficient previllege/license permission on to the database to perform retrieval of data. So, I am not able to use DTS/SSIS or other tool to import data from the database directly connecting to it.
Here my approach is...first retrieve the data using the API into a .net DataTable and then dump the records from it into the hard drive in a specific format (might be in Excel file/ another SQL server database).
When I try to retrieve the data from a large table having over 13 lacs records (3-4 GB) in a data table using the visual studio project, I get an Out of memory exception.
But is there any better way to retrieve the records chunk by chunk and do the export without loosing the state of the data in the table?
Any help on this problem will be highly appriciated.
Thanks in advance...

Girish...Thanks for your reply...But I am sorry for the confusions. Let me explain that...
1."export the data into another media into the hard drive."
What does it mean by this line i.e. another media into hard drive???
ANS: Sorry...I just want to write the data in a file or in a table in SQL server database.
2."I am not able to connect to the database directly because of license issue"
huh?? I never heard this question that a user is not able to connect the db because of license. What error / message you are getting?
ANS: My company uses a 3rd party application that uses ORACLE 10g. And my compnay is licensed to use the 3rd party application (APP+Database is a package) and did not purchased ORACLE license to use directly. So I will not connect to the database directly.
3.I am not sure which API is you are talking about, but i am running an application of the visual studio data grid or similar kind of controls; in which i can select (select query) as many rows as i needed; no issue.
ANS: This API is provided by the 3rd party application vendor. I can pass a query to it and it returns a datatable.
4."better way to retrieve the records chunk by chunk and do the export without loosing the state of the data in the table?"
ANS: As I get a system error (out of memory) when I select all rows in a datatable at a time, I wanted to retrieve the data in multiple phases.
E.g: 1 to 20,000 records in 1st phase
20,001 to 40,000 records in 2nd phase
40,001 to ...... records in 3nd phase
and so on...
Please let me know if this does not clarify your confusions... :)
Thanks...

Retrieve data from a db stuck in upgrade mode

Is there any clever ideas about how to retrieve data from a database that can only be started in upgrade mode? I can select my user data but cannot think of any feasible way to retrieve it out of the database in a format that i would be able to use to import into another clean/new database.
History:
10.2.0.4P26 oracle 32 bit on windows 2003 server
we are trying to recover from a power failure where we lost our c drive.
datafiles appeared to be intact, but the database has some corruption in the dictionary and it cannot be started without the upgrade option, it gets a bootstrap error if started without upgrade option.

Pl post the complete bootstrap error message. Have you opened an SR with Support ?
Unable To Open Database After Upgrade :Error ORA-01092 (Doc ID 435337.1)
Recovery Through Upgrade returns ORA-1092 on Open (Doc ID 560417.1)

Retrieve data from a non-peoplesoft application using HTTP Get

I need to retrieve data from a non-peoplesoft application. They want us to submit a HTTP GET request to their URL with a series of parameters. I am thinking about using HTTP Targert connector to accomplish this. Does anyone have sample peoplecode?
Currently we are on 8.51.10 Tools...
If there is any better way .. please let me know ..

I have used HTTP Get to get XML file from a government sanction list by hitting URL http://www.treasury.gov/ofac/downloads/sdn.xml
There is a delivered PS program that does that for vendor sanctions. I had to get the online setup correctly by creating a new custom Node with HTTP Target Connector. The program name is BSP_IMPORT. The below code is responsible for the calling the node and retrieving the data. Play around with the code below see if you can get it to meet your needs.
BSP_IMPORT_AET.BANKNODE.Value is just the custom external code that I created.
PMT_FLAT_FILE_INBOUND message is just a none rowset based message to use the web service call.
Local TR:FileUtilities:FTP &oFTPUtil = create TR:FileUtilities:FTP();
+/* HTTP */+
+/*******************************************************************************/+
Local Message &msgHTTP;
Local Message &msgResult;
+&msgHTTP = CreateMessage(Message.PMT_FLAT_FILE_INBOUND);+
+&oFTPUtil.PopulateFTPGetIBInfo(&msgHTTP, BSP_IMPORT_AET.BANKNODE.Value);+
+&msgResult = %IntBroker.ConnectorRequest(&msgHTTP);+
+/* check to see if the file is wrapped */+
+&strAllLines = &msgResult.GenXMLString();+
+&strAllLines = Substitute(&strAllLines, Char(26), " "); /* Added this line to remove invalid characters */+
+/*******************************************************************************/+

Unable to retrieve data from a Associative Array (?)

Hi!!!! :)))
i've a problem!!!
this is the oracle's code:
Package GEST_REPORT
IS
type rec_url is record(
TIBCDCON TBISD_30.TIBCDCON%TYPE,
etc...
SETDEL VARCHAR2(10)
type tab2 is table of rec_url index by binary_integer;
FUNCTION MAIN_SELECT
( CPLAS IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN tab2;
END;
...and a java code:
String storedProcedure = "{? = call GEST_REPORT.MAIN_SELECT(?)}";
String result = "";
try{
if (connection != null) {
CallableStatement callableStatement = null;
callableStatement = preprepareCall(storedProcedure);
// preparo parametri di input.
callableStatement.setString(2, "OM");
callableStatement.registerOutParameter(1, oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleTypes.ARRAY, "tab2");
and so on...
In the last line of code throws an 'invalid name pattern'
or
"ORA-21700: object does not exist or is marked for delete"
if registerOutParameter(1, oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleTypes.ARRAY, "ISDSV.GEST_REPORT").
Where TAB2: IS THE MY ARRAY (OR NESTED TABLE?);
GEST_REPORT: THE NAME OF PACKAGE;
ISDSV: THE USER.
do u have suggestion for retrieve data from TAB2 in JAVA??
THKS!!!!!!

Hi
Use fully qualified type name: schema_name.type_name. For your case that would be "ISDSV.tab2"
