SQL Developer no longer letting me look at the same table name on 2 servers

I used to be able to look at the same table (such as; "ATS_Reminders") on both my development box and my production box at the same time. Now when I connect to both databases, if I try to open the same table on the second box, the first table closes so I can't look at them side by side. Is there a way to fix this annoying behavior?
I'm on Windows 7 running:
Java(TM) Platform     1.6.0_11
Oracle IDE     3.1.07.42
Versioning Support     3.1.07.42

Hi bucketofsquid -
You need to pin the 1st editor. This can be done manually by clicking the freeze view button on the object viewer toolbar or automatically by setting auto freeze on in preferences. Tools->Preferences->Database->ObjectViewer->Automatically Freeze Object Viewer Windows

Inserting a LONG to a BLOB in the same table

I have a table with a LONG column and would like to concatenate all existing columns into a new column in the same table and define it as a BLOB. I'm trying to figure out a way to do this. I tried the following and got error message

You cannot concatenate a LONG field. You will have to use a procedure to accomplish what you want.
Use the DBMS_LOB package.

I blocked quite a few different phone numbers awhile ago but when I looked at the blocked numbers today it looks like the same number has been blocked multiple times. Does anyone know why that is?

I blocked a lot of different numbers awhile ago but when I checked the blocked numbers today it looked like the same numbers were blocked multiple times. So for example if I blocked phone numbers 555-555-5555, 555-555-5556, and 555-555-5557 on different days it looks like only 555-555-5555 has been blocked 3 different times and I no longer see phone numbers 555-555-5556 or 555-555-5557. Does anyone know why?

Oh dear, one of those phantom disconnections. You know they are actually so common BT have a specialist department that deals with them. I think they are called Priority Back in Service, there is no actual phone number you can ring them on, you have to call 150 as normal and the customer service team are supposed to raise the issue with them to sort out.
You could contact that Mods but they sometimes take 3 days to reply, especially with it being the weekend.

IOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change ?

iOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network, i.e. connected to the same wired/wireless router. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change this ? Means that the iPad and the Apple TV box both have to be in range of the wireless router when this wasn't a restriction before. Apple TV could be anywhere as long as it was connected to the same wireless router via ethernet cable. Seems like an unnecessary thing to restrict.

I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem. The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6. (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!

Hi, will my downloadable PDF forms look exactly the same as when I upload but with spaces filled in?

Hi, will my downloadable PDF forms look exactly the same as when I upload but with spaces filled in?

Not sure I understand the question. Are you talking about the "Download Response as PDF" feature (to see the PDF filled out with the filler's data) or the "Download Submission Enabled PDF" (to sent to people to fill out)?
If you imported a PDF in FormsCentral, the Submission Enabled PDF will look exactly the same as the imported PDF plus a submit button
If you designed the form in FormsCentral and save the Submission Enabled PDF it will look very similar to the web form (switch the view in the Design Tab to Page View to see what the PDF will look like)
The PDF doesn't use skip logic or show/hide logic so this mean that the PDF always shows all the form elements
I answered a similar question today. See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1251981

Pantone C and Pantone U looks like the same

Hello all,
Sorry for poor english, and thank you for support.
I am using CS5, Mac (OS 10.6.8)
when I use the color PANTONE, I find out that Both C and U display as the same
but on my colleague CS6, C and U are in great different.
and when he open the file I pass to him, it shows 2 different color for the same pantone code
here are my questions
1. is that a bug or not?
- so is that affect the output?I mean, if it display as very similar, will the output looks very different as a result?
(I mean, if both of us output the same files, will it becomes different?we mostly output as large PDF file for output)
2. is there any method that can make CS5 and CS6 output same color when we output as JPG (RGB)?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Aki

Technically speaking, both Pantone 100C and Pantone 100U would look exactly the same. The ink formulas are identical. The only that is different is the paper used on press. The only reason a "U" is specified is so the prepress people will have plates identified correctly for the type of paper planned on press.
here are my answers
1. is that a bug or not?
- so is that affect the output?I mean, if it display as very similar, will the output looks very different as a result?
(I mean, if both of us output the same files, will it becomes different?we mostly output as large PDF file for output)
No. It's not a bug. You both could use different Pantone representative colors or the same Pantone represented colors in your file and they would output the same. The only difference would be the paper you use.
2. is there any method that can make CS5 and CS6 output same color when we output as JPG (RGB)?
Not enough space here to explain it. Get Adobe's Print Publishing Guide. If you output a JPG in RGB, you would have to rasterize the Pantone spot color file and then match specific Pantone colors in Photoshop using the same RGB Working Space, Color Settings, and specific RGB conversion colors in both the CS5 and CS6 versions.

SQL Developer....tough to find the schema I am looking for

I am a contractor here and I have been given the host name/ user name / password for the database.I log in using SQL Developer tool ,and I see the tables ,views,indexes,packages etc and all are empty.Then below there is "Other Users" and underneath that host of other details.With great difficulty I was able to find my right schema under Other Users!.
Please let me know if there is a better way for me to get to the right schema moment I enter the connection details.Also what is this "Other Users".
thanks
M

I asked for database details and the thing I
received is
host name
service name
user name
password
portdid you do the asking in person, or via email. I've been a DBA a long time and mostly we don't try to make life difficult for either developers, contractors or even contract developers! Quite often though face-to-face communication beats emails. The thing I find odd is that it appears that you knew what schema you wanted, but you got to the stage of logging in as the owner of a different schema before discovering that you couldn't see the tables directly in the dev tool. If I were to be developing in the SCOTT schema (or the HR or the NIALL or whatever schema) then I'd expect to get the host, service name and password for that schema (and port if it wasn't 1521 or tns alias if I was using some centralized name resolution method.

BUG: SQL Developer no longer identifies invalid views version 1.1.3.2766

I have a sql script which 'CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW' a view but unlike SQLDeveloper 1.1R2 which I am amending in a third party editor and loading via sqlplus the view is created with "Warning: View created with compilation errors."
In 1.1R2 this would have displayed a view icon with a red cross in the navigator bar. This is no longer the case. All views appear to be valid.

It appears that SQL Developer is not handling the INTERVAL data type when a NULL value is present, e.g: -
This works OK:
SELECT CAST('-0 0:0:0.400000000' AS INTERVAL DAY(3) TO SECOND(0))
FROM dual;
This does not:
SELECT CAST(NULL AS INTERVAL DAY(3) TO SECOND(0))
FROM dual;
As a work around you can simply TO_CHAR the column:
SELECT source,
destination,
comments,
flags,
owner,
job_name,
job_creator,
client_id,
global_uid,
program_owner,
program_name,
job_type,
job_action,
number_of_arguments,
schedule_owner,
schedule_name,
start_date,
repeat_interval,
end_date,
job_class,
enabled,
auto_drop,
restartable,
state,
job_priority,
run_count,
max_runs,
failure_count,
max_failures,
retry_count,
last_start_date,
TO_CHAR(last_run_duration),
next_run_date,
TO_CHAR(schedule_limit),
TO_CHAR(max_run_duration),
logging_level,
stop_on_window_close,
instance_stickiness,
system,
job_weight,
nls_env
FROM dba_scheduler_jobs a;

SQL Developer 1.5.1 - warning messages generated by CREATE TABLE

Hi,
Have an issue with a CREATE TABLE statement - it works correctly, but generates a warning message when used in SQL Developer (1.2 or 1.5.1). Full test case below:
Setup:
drop table samplenames;
drop table customers;
drop table phones;
drop table customers_phone;
drop sequence primkey;
create table samplenames
(name VARCHAR2(10));
insert into samplenames values ('dan');

trunc(dbms_random.value(1000000,9999999)) as phn_num
FROM customers;
--randomly delete ~10% of records to make sure nulls are handled correctly.
delete from phones
where MOD(area_cde + phn_num, 10) = 0;

Error report:
SQL Command: CREATE TABLE
Failed: Warning: execution completed with warning"
I am on 10.2.0.3. The CREATE TABLE always completes successfully, but the warning bugs me, and I have had no success tracking it down since there is no associated numberr.
Anyone have any ideas?

Hi ,
The Oracle JDBC driver is returning this warning so I will be logging an issue with them, but for the moment SQL Developer will continue to report the warning as is.
The reason for the warning is not clear or documented as far as I can tell,
but I have replicated the issue with a simpler testcase which makes it easier to have a guess about the issue :)
----START
DROP TABLE sourcetable ;
CREATE TABLE sourcetable(col1 char);
INSERT INTO sourcetable VALUES('M');
DROP TABLE customers_phone;
CREATE TABLE customers_phone AS
SELECT MAX(decode(col1, 'm','OK' , NULL)) COLALIAS
FROM sourcetable;
----END
The warning occurs in the above script in SQL Developer , but not in SQL*Plus.
The warning disappears when we change 'm' to 'M'.
The warning disappears when we change NULL to 'OK2'
In all cases the table creates successfully and the appropriate values inserted.
My gut feeling is ...
During the definition of customers_phone, Oracle has to work out what the COLALIAS datatype is.
When it sees NULL as the only alternative (as sourcetable.col1 = 'M' not 'm') it throws up a warning. It then has to rely on the 'OK' value to define the COLALIAS datatype, even though the 'OK' value wont be inserted as sourcetable.col1 = 'M' and not 'm'. So Oracle makes the correct decision to define the COLALIAS as VARCHAR2(2), but the warning is just to say it had to use the alternative value to define the column.
Why SQL*Plus does not report it and JDBC does, I'm not sure. Either way it doesn't look like a real issue.
Again, this is just a guess and not a fact.
Just though an update was in order.
Regards,
Dermot.

SQL Developer import from Excel or CSV not creating new table

I am sure I have done this with previous version of SQL Developer. I am now running 1.5.4 with patches update from 5/27/2009. I am running on Windows XP. When I start the import wizard I get to the point were the varify button appears. I click Verify. Everything is successful. The next button is grayed out. The send to worksheet is not checked. I press the finish button and the new table is not created.
I don't get any error message. I refresh my table list and the new table is not created. I can create new tables using SQL Developer so I don't think it can be a privelege problem. I know I did this a few weeks ago. I am not sure what version of SQL Developer I was running. But I have updated to the latest and greatest since then.

I wanted to import and use my table data from MS Excel 2010 in SQL developer Version 3.1.05.
I was told that SQL does not import .xls data. For that reason, I was searching for a script which Import data from excel to SQL developer. I tried many different forums DBS blogs. Then eventually I found the solution inside the SQL developer itself.
In your Editor window, There would be options like,
1. Columns | Data | Constraints |Grants | Sta...... "so on"
2. In second row, you can find a drop box with certain table options. Select the last option "Import Data"
THERE YOU GO.
do accordingly to your need and you will get the data as well its scripts.
I hope this would help you all. Thanks. :-)

(( SQL DEVELOPER UserName Password??? --- To Access APEX TABLES ))

How do I access APEX tables from SQL DEVELOPER?
What do I use as a USERNAME and PASSWORD--
inside SQL DEVELOPER?
Hello,
I have APEX installed on my machine.
WINDOWS 7 PROFESSIONAL 64 BIT.
I also have installed:
ORACLE XE
and
SQL DEVELOPER.
I have applications I have created in APEX
with various tables.
Question:
How can I access my APEX tables from
within SQL DEVELOPER?
What USERNAME and PASSWORD do I use?
I can do this with
HR
SQL DEVELOPER USERNAME = HR
PASSWORD = HR
This works fine.
But what about for my own APEX TABLES
I created inside my own workspace
inside APEX?
For example:
LOGIN TO APEX:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/
If my
APEX WORKSPACE = DAVID_WS
SCHEMA = DAVID_SC
APEX USERNAME = DAVIDAPEX_UN
APEX PASSWORD = DAVIDAPEX_PW
LOGIN TO APEX ADMIN:
http://localhost:8080/apex/apex_admin
APEXADMIN USERNAME = DAVIDADMIN_UN
APEXADMIN PASSWORD = DAVIDADMIN_PW
So, given the above 6
NAMES and PASSWORDS above:
SQL DEVELOPER USERNAME = ????
SQL DEVELOPER PASSWORD = ????
Thanks a lot for your help!
David
Edited by: DAVID888 on Feb 3, 2011 11:53 PM

Hello david,
When you created your workspace with the below details, if the schema "DAVID_SC" was created through APEX, then you should have also specified the password as well.
APEX WORKSPACE = DAVID_WS
SCHEMA = DAVID_SC
APEX USERNAME = DAVIDAPEX_UN
APEX PASSWORD = DAVIDAPEX_PWIf you dont remember the password for "DAVID_SC", you can log on to your Oracle XE database as a "SYSTEM" user and reset the password of "DAVID_SC".
Once that is done, you can log on to SQL developer with :
username : david_sc
password : <your_new_password>
Hope it is clear and plz refer to the APEX documentation to get a better understanding of it.

I uploaded a lot of important pictures to iPhoto, after downloading them I deleted them off my memory card. Now, iPhoto will not let me look at the pictures and the album in which I put them is empty. Where did they go? What should I do? Help please!

I uploaded a lot of important pictures to iPhoto, and then deleted them off my memory card. I tried looking at the pictures and they are no wheere to be found, the album in which they were is empty, and I looked everywhere for them. Where did they go? What should I do?

Check to make sure the iPhoto Advanced preferences are set to copy photos into the library when importing, i.e. a "managed" library:
If it is and you don't see any thumbnail in the Event they should be in apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with
Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If you are unable to get iPhoto to recover the photos MediaRECOVER can be used on the memory card to recover the photos as long a they haven't been overwritten. It will run in demo mode so you can see if it will recover the photo before you have to purchase it.

Download SQL Developer for Linux -- does it point to the Win version?

Hi everyone,
is it possible that the software behind the Linux version is the windows version instead?
--> Oracle SQL Developer 1.0, patch 1 (1.0.0.15.27)
--> --> http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/htdocs/sqllic.html?http://download.oracle.com/otn/java/sqldeveloper/sqldeveloper-1527-no-jre.zip
Best regards Georg

There are really just 3 different downloads - one for Windows that is bundled with the jre and tools.jar, another that is specific to Mac and the third is the unbundled release. The unbundled is for Windows users that already have a jdk 1.5 or for Linux users (who need to have or get a jdk 1.5). After initial feedback that it was difficult to decide which to select, we decided to list specific to your platform, even though that means a duplicate link behind the scenes.
