Trying to migrate DB to 9i

Hi everybody,
I installed 9i and I am trying to manually migrate my previous 8i (Rel 1) db.
C:\Oracle\admin\act\pfile>mig PFILE=initact.ora
starting up database ...
Error code 161
ORA-01061: cannot start up a V8 server using a V7 client application
I am not sure why is it complaining about V7. I have never had version 7 install on this PC.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Nick

I have a new Macbook Pro - trying to migrate files etc from my Macbook Air using a Thunderbolt Cable between the two. I follow the directions but the two computers never "discover" each other. WiFi connect works but 70 hours is a rough deal.

Trying to restore after getting a new hard drive. I can see the backup on the Time Capsule and on the correct date but it is Greyed out. That is it wont let me open it and restore the machine. Have tried also Migration Assistant, no luck.

At startup hold down the Command+Option/Alt+r keys until you see a globe on the screen. Then use disk utility to partition and format the drive HSF+ and then select Reinstall Mac OS X. whatever version of OS X that originally came on your system will be installed and then you can upgrade back to Mavericks.

I'm trying to migrate from mobileMe to iCloud but I have Snow Leopard (the latest version). It looks like Lion is no longer available because Mountain Lion comes out next month (July). The problem is mobileMe ends on June 30th. How can I migrate?

I'm trying to migrate from mobileMe to iCloud but I have Snow Leopard (the latest version). It looks like Lion is no longer available because Mountain Lion comes out next month (July). The problem is mobileMe ends on June 30th. How can I migrate?
My iphone and my ipad are compatible but when I try to go to icloud on my phone it says to do it on my computer.
I would like to have my calendar, contacts, etc.. all sync like they do now. Is there a way to upgrade before June 30th? If not, will the gap be an issue or will I just be able to buy mountain lion and sync everything?
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

You can buy Lion in the App Store now, but move to iCloud now. If you wait to Mountain Lion, you will only have Mail in Snow Leopard, so you will lose syncing unless you use Lion or Mountain Lion. It's up to you

Error while trying to migrate Classic HFM app to EPMA

Hello I currently have a classic HFM application 11.1.2.1.0.83 and I have to migrate it to EPMA
I already made a copy of the production App in a Virtual Machine and finish the process with positive results.
However when I try to do the migration on the production environment (same version, same user, same provision) I keep getting this error
APPNAME: Starting transformation
APPNAME: Changing product application to EPMA
APPNAME: Getting Metadata
APPNAME: Unable to get product metadata
Total Errors: 1 Total Warnings: 0
Then it says something about checking the logs, which I already did following this route ...\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\epma but nothing reporting an error or anything alike was registered
Reading the forums I havent found anything similar, except for one person trying to migrate a planning application, but it seems it was a problem with his period dimensions, I'm most certain that cannot be my issue since the application finished succesfully on my VM
Any help would be extremely appreciated I'm at a loss here

Java.lang.NullPointerException trying to migrate from MySQL to OracleXE

(Originally posted in the SQL Developer forum)
I'm trying to migrate a small MySQL database (four tables) to OracleXE. When I capture an object (table, schema or entire database), I'm receiving a java.lang.NullPointerException message from the Capture source in the Migration Log window. The migrated object doesn't show up in the Captured Objects window until after I shut down SQL Developer and restart it, then the tables in the migration script don't have any columns defined in them.
Here's the error from the console:

J2SE Development Kit 5.0 Update 11

The MySQL database is version 4.1.2 running on a remote Mandriva Linux 2006 server.
Are there any specific version requirements for the components involved?
Thanks.

Hi,
There's a known bug in the code that captures 4.1 MySQL databases (specifically). The fix has been applied, and will be available in our next release.
for a temporary workaround, you can put your data into a MySQL 4.0 or 5.0 database.

Trying to migrate SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g.

Hi.
I´m trying to migrate from Sql Server 2000 to Oracle 10g and I got some troubles.
I have connected both databases with my Oracle Sql Server, after that I went to the Menu--> Migrate--> Fast Migration and then fill all the steps necesary.
I can see the repository`s table at the oracle schema but after that the Sql Developer hang at the point "capture". I let the tool work for 2 hours and nothing to do. It´s not a hughe db so could be done faster.
May I miss something?.
Thanks.

Hi
I also have similar issue when trying to migrate from MS SQL 2005 to oracle 10g.
I use the SQL Developer Version 2.1.0.63.
First, I tried to use 'Quick Migration' then it created repository then stop there with error message
"Error ocurred during capture: ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into ("DDHCOWNER"."MD_PROJECTS"."ID")"
Then, try manual way to capture SQL server, but some how it doesn't work. It just refresh IDE and stop.
Before this activity, I tried to migrate MS SQL 2005 using 'Quick Migration' and it works. But this time I have to do it on another DB then this happened.
So I re-try the previous connection then encountered the same to all.
Thus, please kindly help to advice how to solve this problem.
Thank you so much.

Sai Lin Naung

Problems when trying to migrate from 6.0 to 6i

Hi,
I'm having problems when trying to migrate a Designer 6.0 application to 6i.
When I get to start the migration after having selected the source application, the process fails immediately after I've pressed the button.
I'm getting the error: CDR-21244: This process has been aborted and the advice to check the log file. But no log file is created.
I've read Note 234984.1 which gives two suggestions in this situation: That the ORACLE_HOME environment variable is unset, and that the LOG_DIRECTORY_RAU directory is writeable. Both is fulfilled in my situation. However it seems that the migration procedure tries to start imp - I've noticed a short flash with the command prompt screen - and when I try to start imp manually from the command prompt I get errors. I was able to fix this error by setting ORACLE_HOME and ORA_NLS33. But the defining ORACLE_HOME is "illegal" ref. Note 234984.1. Of course I tried to leave it anyway, but that didn't help neither: The migration still dies a quick and silent dead.
So now I'm stucked. How can I carry on?
The source is on version 6.0.3.5.0 running on 8.1.5, and the taget is version 6.5.92.1.9 running on 8.1.7.4.
Regards, Michael

The migration from Designer 6.0 to 6i requires careful planning. Please read the migration guide on OTN (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/designer/index.html) for advice and to assist you with the migration.

Trying to migrate to a new computer - major problems

Hi, I'm posting this for my friend Cindy who is trying to migrate from an old laptop to a new PC. Laptop: Vista PC: Windows 7, both 64 bit.
She called me after moving some files around and being partially successful. The problem is that a few thousand photos are missing and cannot be found. I've searched her internal and external hard drives and cannot locate the files on either computer. I do believe they are gone.
What we're trying to figure out is this: How can she take everything that is on her laptop and migrate it properly to the PC. The catch here is that the laptop is messed up too because of trying to move things around.
So, is there any way to get PS Lightroom to scan the catalog and then search the whole computer (c: and g: drives) for the missing files, and then export them into a new catalog that is properly organized? I realize that's a tall order but we are grasping at straws here.
Thanks for your time, and feel free to point me in the right direction rather than answer the questions explicitly.
Ryan (via Cindy's account)

You need to supply more information:
1) What version of LR is installed on the old laptop, and what version on the new desktop?
2) Are the "few thousand missing photos" showing up in LR on the new desktop, but with '?' symbol in the thumbnails? If so double-click the '?' to display the laptop file location path where LR thinks the files are.
3) What is the 'G:' drive letter (external drive?) and has anything been deleted from the G: or C: drives?
4) Was there more than one (1) Lightroom catalog created on the laptop? If so where were the catalogs saved?
This link will be helpful in locating LR files and folders:

Do NOT open any applications on the laptop other than Windows File Explorer, to prevent overwriting any possibly deleted files.

I have a new MacBook Air. When I first got it, I migrated some of my files from my PC to the MacBook Air with no issues. Now, I',m trying to migrate more documents, music, etc. and migration assistant won't get past "Looking for Other Computers." Why?

I have new MacBook Air. When I first got it, I migrated some of my files from my PC to the MacBook Air without any problems. Now I'm trying to migrate more files, music, etc. and I keep getting the continuous spining circle with "Looking for Other Computers." I've tried everything and for some reason it is not finding my PC. What am I doing wrong?

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. This is just a small selection of what's available, you can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
Senuti Mac Only (Currently only the beta version is iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
PodView Mac Only
PodWorks Mac Only
iPodDisk PPC Mac Only (experimental version available for Intel Macs)
TuneAid Mac only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac & Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Floola Mac & Windows
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide

I'm trying to migrate data from an old Powerbook G4 to a Macbook running 10.8 - new laptop can't find the target disk

Can anyone help me get a new(er) Macbook that's running Mountain Lion migrate data from an old PowerBook G4 running 10.4.x?
I've restarted the G4 holding down "T" and have the Firewire icon floating around its screen, started Migration Assistant on the Macbook, telling it to get data from a Time Machine back up or other disk, have Firewire cable connected to both laptops, continue and the Macbook is just endlessly "Looking for Other Computers"....
Any ideas?
Anyone?

Additionally, When I have the two laptops connected via Firewire, I do see the disk from which I'm trying to migrate data and can copy files, etc.
Not sure if this is helpful or not but thought I'd throw it out there.

Hi, I recently purchased a new Macbook Air with OS X version 10.8.5. I am trying to migrate my data from my MacBook Air Late 2010. Anyone knows how I could connect them with wires? The 2010 MacBook Air has only two USA slots. Thanks for any help on this issue!

You can connect the USB2 to USB3 backwards compatible.

You will need to use an external DVD drive to run the disc installer that came you your machine. You can also do it with another Mac using the Remote Install Max OS X app. Finely, if you have access to another computer, you could burn the install image on a USB thumb drive, boot from that, erase the drive and run the installer.

Trying to migrate a Windows library over to Mac OS X

Hello all,
I am trying to migrate my music library (iTunes) that I created on a Windoze machine over to my new Mac. For some reason the Windows external drive will not be seen by the Mac machine and I get an error asking if I want to initialize the Windoze external drive. I know that this will format the drive and erase my music. Is there some software or way to simply copy from the external drive to my new computer? Also when I did try to copy from one to the other, it would start and then somewhere in the process it would say: "unable to copy file" or something like this and the entire process would abort and it would have to be started over. It does not say which file is causing the problem so I have no idea where to begin again.
Thanks and hope I explained this okay.
