Unable to backup after upgrade to 8i

(first off i am Oracle ignorant so bear with me) Our NT4 server has an app (Medialogics Logician) that was running Oracle 7 and then the app was upgraded which also meant upgrading Oracle to 8i. Now i am unable to connect to the database with Backup Exec, all i see is the archive and database control files. And i also get a "logon failure" in the event veiwer now. I've tried everything i can think of, the vendor is clueless and we have no true Oracle people here. Any suggestions? I found one thing about specifying the default SID in the registry but no instructions on how to do this.

I solved the problem by myself and wanted to share the method with everyone:
I suspected that there was some corrupt data on my device and thought the most likely candidates were either the saved photos or some of the applications that saved data on the iPod (e.g., the news apps or the ToDo App). I started off by deleting the photos, rebooting and backing up. This didn't work.
Then I went ahead and deleted the applications I described above. I found that deleting all the applications at once didn't work. I had to delete them one at a time and rebooting after each delete (uninstall). I tried backing up after this step and things worked out well. Hence, I was able to update my device to 2.0.1.

    You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera, particularly before any update or restore.
    You should also be syncing your contacts to your computer regularly.  They hsould be in whatever program/service that you have selected to sync.
    If you have failed to do this, then they are very likely gone.
    You can try restoring from backup.

  • I am experiencing low battery backup after upgrade to OS X Mavericks

    i am experiencing low battery backup after upgrade to OS X Mavericks

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
         after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
         Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
         Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

  • Imac keeps crashing in time machine backup after upgrade to mountain lion

    2008 imac kept crashing (shutdown and restart) during first backup after upgraded to mountain lion. The backup size was about 10GB but time machine crashed after a while (at most 2GB) and never completed backup. So, I don't have any backup since right before I upgraded from Lion. Any suggestion?

    Something strange happened. I was able to get time machine to work by going out to the login screen (the account kept logged in) and let it run the backup with the screen off (screen auto off after a few min). I tried it on two different external drives and that did the trick on both. Since the initial Mountain Lion backup was huge (155 GB), I was quite surprise that it worked at all. I assume your MBP was a Lion to ML. I also just did a 2012 MBP upgrade but that one was smoother. I did not recall having crashing issue. One thing I did find during this was that my WD passport USB drive was corrupted. Not sure it was the cause or not. I had to erase and reformat to get it back to work. Maybe do a verify disk to confirm. Good luck.

  • Extremely Slow Time Machine Backup after upgrading to 10.8.3

    Time machine backups are taking an extremely long time on my retina MacBook Pro 13 inch after upgrading to 10.8.3. It's taking many minutes just for a kilobyte to be backed up. I've tested transferring something to the disk and it's lightening fast so there's nothing wrong with the disk.
    Is anyone having similar issues or know of a fix?

    I had the same problem with slow backups. Called Apple 5 times and went through all the hoops checking plists, airport, and then erasing using my airport utility and the first backup of about 25-30 gigs went fine, but the second backup would take between 1-2 hours. By the time it was finished it was ready to do another backup.
    After looking at community fixes I found that my Comcast Norton Anti Virus was the problem. Upon speaking for the 6th time to Apple I was told that should have been the first thing they asked, since antivirus programs check each file going to the time capsule. Even unchecking the scan external drives did not help.
    I removed the Norton AV from my system and replaced it with the IAV from apple store (free) and my backups are back to normal. I timed a 100 meg using Ethernet/LAN and it took 9 minutes 32 seconds from clicking backup now, searching for backups, preparing backup, backingup, and cleanup. My Wifi connection on 10 megs took only 1 minute 29 seconds.
    Now my backups run so fast I don't even see them working. Also the constant updates to Norton were casuing my backups to be 100 megs or more each time due to daily Norton updates. Now I get backups in the order of 10-20 megs - depending up what I have put on the machine. If I put music on it increases the size of the files installed.
    I recommend anyone having this slow time capsule problem to turn off your full antivirus program no matter what you are using and watch the difference in speed. I am so happy! No more 2 hour backups and 45 minutes to 1 hour preparing backup! good luck

  • Time Machine backup after upgrading from 10.6

    Hi all,
    I'm planning to upgrade from 10.6.8 to 10.7 on a MacBook from 2007, and I have a question about my Time Machine set-up. I have this backing up on an external HD, and I am wondering if, when I've upgraded to 10.7, the Time Machine software will access the same set-up I had in 10.6.8? Will it just pick up from where 10.6.8 left off or will I have to start again?
    Thanks,
    David

    Google says that lots of people are having this problem after upgrading to Lion.  Clearly not everyone, but those of us HAVING the Lion problem must have something in common!

  • I am unable to backup after months of successful backups.  Receive "iPhone could not backup the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone.

    I am unable to backup my iPhone4 (4.3.4) after months of successful backups.  Receive "iPhone could not backup the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone.  Followed advise on user forum to delete the old backup... did not help.  Need to do a backup.  Is there a cure?

    The only thing that resolved it for me was to COMPLETELY remove all Apple components per http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925.  I also downgraded to iTunes 10.3 since my issue didn't start until after the 10.4 update.  May not be related but oh well....You will have to restore your old iTunes Library file (*.itl) if you downgrade.

  • Unable to print after upgrading to Snow Leopard (Dell 1320C) - Network

    This recently started after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
    The OSX drivers worked well with Leopard 10.5.xx but after upgrading to Snow Leopard, i keep getting "network host busy" or "could not connect to printer".
    I've tried completly removing printer, reinstalling (IP based), drivers etc etc I even resetted the printing system (right clicking and reseting in the printers list).
    This works fine with Leopard but it fails on Snow Leopard..

    I had the same problem not being able to print to Dell 1320c after upgrading to Snow Leopard. Here is a work around for the Dell 1320c printer to work on Mac with Leopard 10.6.2
    Do not use the printer driver from Dell. Delete the Printer Setup from your Mac.
    Locate Mac Driver Suitable for 10.5 (Version 1.7) at http://www.fujixeroxprinters.com.au/en/support/Downloads.aspx?product=5452&categ ory=5726
    Double click the icon to install after it downloads. It should create file DPC525AAPv17x5.dmg. When the install is finished you can delete the installer.
    From the Apple menu open System Preferences and select Print & Fax.
    Click the + to add a printer.
    Select IP Printer.
    Select for the Protocol: Line Printer Daemon - LPD
    Type the IP address: 192.168.1.xxx or whatever your printer is assigned on your network. (If you don't know, go to your printer and hold down the Green button until the configuration sheet prints. You can see the IP address once printed.)
    Name the printer "Dell Color Laser 1320c" or whatever you'd like to call it.
    For Print Using select: FX
    Next select FX DocumPrint C525 A-AP v1.7 in the box below.
    On the next screen you must select 250 Sheet Feeder as an option. Otherwise it will only be able to manual feed.
    Click Ok.
    Go to Print something, File... Print... but don't click the Print button yet.
    Under Pages: go to the Drop Down and select Fuji Xerox Features.
    Find the Paper Source Drop Down and select Tray 1 (250 sheets),
    then go up to Presets: Drop Down above and select Save As...
    and under Preset Name, type Standard-1, leave This Printer Only and click OK.
    Now you can click the Print button. This will set the Dell 1320c printer to print from the document tray and not try to manually feed all the time.
    Anyway, that's the work around to use the Dell 1320c Color Laser printer under Mac OS Snow Leopard 10.6.x.
    Hope this helps!
    Good Luck
    P.S. I guess eventually Dell might come out with an updated driver, but don't hold your breath...

  • Unable to activate after upgrade

    I'm trying to re-activate my phone after upgrading to 1.1.1, and iTunes is giving me a "Cannot complete your iTunes Store request. The store may be busy," but the regular iTunes store is working fine.
    Is the activation server down right now?

    There's obviously a problem with the activation servers. Although AT&T doesn't know of any issues (and told me to contact Apple), I am now no longer getting the error, but it's been attempting to access the store now for about 5 minutes.

  • Unable to access time machine backups after upgrade

    I have an airport extreme with an USB disk that I've been using with my 10.8 system.
    I've decided to format and do a clean install of mavericks.  After that even tough I can access the timemachine and see scroll with the mouse I can't use the arrows or select anything.
    Any ideas?

However, I am unable to select any of the dates prior to the new user profile's creation and the deletion of the old profile...
    That's correct. What you see in Time Machine's "Star Wars" display depends on what you have the Finder window set to. While looking at the new profile, you can't see any backups that were done before it existed.
    You're right, they're still there, for now, but are grayed-out in the timeline at the right, because what's in the Finder window wasn't backed-up then.
    If you select your internal HD or Computer Name in the sidebar, you'll be able to see those backups.
    But since they're for a different user, you won't be able to view inside that home folder or restore from it -- one user, even an Admin user, doesn't normally have access to a different user's data.
    It's doubtful, but you might be able to create a new user with exactly the same name as the one you deleted, log on to it, and see if the old backups appear.

  • Time Machine deleted all my backups after upgrading to Yosemite!!!! Help!!!!

    Hi all! I'm in deep, deep trouble!! I was on Lion, and had all my backups on an external hard drive done by the Time Machine.
    So after I did a clean install to upgrading to Yosemite. So I was left with my Imac with nothing on it, Yosemite, and the applications that I've been installing manually.
    However, Time Machine starting backing again my Imac with Yosemite, and decided to delete ALL BACKUPS of when I was with Lion!!!
    Now I'm only have my new Backups(3 days old), and ALL MY WORK IS GONE!! (About 1TB of precised organised info!!!)
    I tried a software called Data Recovery and whilst is recovering only a 50% of all deleted data after a scanning, now its retrieving that info with new names i.e. 0001,0002,0003 and organising depending on name of extension i.e: PDF,JPEG...therefore becoming totally useless as it will take literally YEARS to put it back the way it was.
    Please HELP, I don't know what to do!!!
    My profesional life is depending on it!!
    iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

  • How can I restore my old iTunes Time Machine backup after upgrading to Mavericks?

    I previously had Snow Leopard, and am wondering how I can simply restore ONLY my iTunes library from my Time Machine backup, last made only a few days ago when I had Snow Leopard. However, I seem to be unable to access anything backed up before I installed Mavericks. Any help would be great, because I'd hate to have to struggle to locate 160GB of music manually.
    Many thanks!

    Your choice really. Either way will work. Retaining the older backups gives you a way to restore older files. When I upgrade from 10.8 to 10.9, the backups continued without errors. Depending on what you upgraded from, in 10.8/9 you have the option to backup to 2 separate drives thus giving you some protection in case one drive fails. You can either copy the old backup to a new drive (Disk Utility/Restore seems to work best) or start a new one.

  • How does time machine handle initial backup after upgrading to Yosemite?

    HI All,
    I'm wondering if Time machine will create a "new" full backup of the system after I upgrade to Yosemite.
    I'm trying to make sure I can backout (revert to previous backup of Mavericks) of the upgrade should I run into trouble.
    Thanks,
    Eddy817

    besides restoring just one file, that is what Time machine DOES. See this article:
    Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions -- 14. How do I restore my entire system?
    If you are deeply concerned, you may want make a copy of your entire system before updating (Clone your old system) or Install onto a Blank drive and add your files to that.
    If you make NO preparation and do not have a Backup, the only way to install a previous versions is to do so onto a Blank drive. Also, you must have PURCHASED (even for $0) a copy of Mavericks, or it will not be available for re-download.

  • Time machine issue: always full backup after upgrade to Mavericks

    I just upgraded to OS X Mavericks - since then, each Time Machine backup is a full back (Instead of just backing up the differential between backups) - I couldnt find the answer on the web, pls help! Thanks

    You say you think indexing is now done. Is that because everything else seems to be working with no delays?
    Because you said "The CPUs stayed maxed and machine hot for about 3 more hours." That sound like it was done indexing your internal HD.
    To be sure, look at the Spotlight index at the right of your menubar.  If it has a tiny dot inside it, it's indexing something.  Click it to see what.  If not, it's caught up.
    Oddly, the indexing of your backups may or may not appear there.
    And when you say leave it for awhile, are you thinking more like 4 hours? or more like maybe 20 hours?
    It depends on how large your backups are, and how you're connected.  Ethernet will be faster than WiFI, of course, but will still take a while.  The indexing may be done at the beginning of the backup, during it, or after it seems to be done (if the backup says it's done, but it doesn't eject the Time Machine Backups disk image, it's probably still being indexed).
    I'd guess a few hours, again depending on how large your backups are.
    At what point should I give up on it?
    When you run out of patience?
