Unable to open resetlogs due to ASM format tempfile

Hello forum,
I've just completed an RMAN restore and ran "alter database open resetlogs" when I get the following:
ORA-00349: failure obtaining block size for "+DATA01".
I know this is because the tempfile and datafiles from the source system were in ASM format. I've done several restores from backups of the same RAC to a standalone with no problems in the past.
In past restores I just ran the open resetlogs, then logged into sqlplus, added a new tempfile and dropped the old ASM one, but it's not letting me do that now. Now, when I try to add the new one or drop the old, it tells me I have to open the database using RESETLOGS or NORESETLOGS.
So now I'm stuck in a bit of a loop. I can't open resetlogs because of the ASM temp file, and I can't add a new tempfile because the database isn't open.
Any help is appreciated.

Figured it out. The error about the temp file only shows when I attempt an RMAN restore and open resetlogs if the db_recovery_file_dest is unset, or is pointed to the wrong place.
By default my test install had the flash recovery area under $ORACLE_HOME. On our development server, whose environment I was trying to mimic, the parameter is unset. "alter database open resetlogs" displayed the error about the block size when I had it unset, so previously I figured I had to start fresh.
This time, instead of restoring everything, I started the database in nomount, and set the parameter to $ORACLE_HOME/dbs (where RMAN dropped the logs), shutdown the database, startup in nomount, mounted it, then opened it, and it worked.
From there I was able to shutdown and startup in upgrade mode, and run utlip, catupgrd, and utlrp.

Unable to open catalog due to "unexpected error"

Anyone else see this error message? Rebooted, checked disc, etc. Other catalogs open just fine, but this is my main/current catalog.

OS 10.9.5
Using an external GTech drive for LR catalog and raw files.
I fortunately back up each time I close LR, so I used the last backup and was able to load the catalog. Looks like the last import didn't make it, but I recovered the files from the camera card.
Looks like I am ok, but it is unnerving to say the least. I'd love to know what caused it, so that I avoid the minutes of terror before I figured out the work around.
Backup, backup, backup.
Thanks for responding, Geoff.

Unable to open iPhoto due to compatability problem.

I had my brother burn a disc with images of our 4 kids. He as iphoto 09, I have 08. I was able to open the file on my desktop, select all images, and drag them into iphoto the seemed to have imported. I then shut down iphoto, and just tried to reopen it (24 hours later) to do the project necessary with the photos. This is the message I am getting. "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto." I can do nothing. The only option available is to his the "Quit" button. All of my pictures of my kids are in there. I can not open it at all. I have meant for a year now to back up all my pictures, but never have. I have no idea what to do. Is my only option to spend $80 and get iphoto 09?

This is often a sign of a damaged database.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
I have meant for a year now to back up all my pictures, but never have.
Learn anything from this experience?

Unable to open website due to scope application error

Hi guys. I am completely new to this forum so I hope I explain this well enough. I have an eee pc running xandrox os. I upgraded to firefox 3.6 today. Now I cannot open the website surgeons.org as I get this error "the scope application has not been enabled." I have no idea what this means or how to fix it. Have reviewed the forum but the dicussion is beyond me. Can anyone offer advice please. Thank you

You are a bit unclear as to your relationship to the website in question... is it yours? You make it sound like you're just a visitor. If it's the latter, the only thing you can do is to contact whoever maintains the site and tell them to fix their code.
If it's your site, then there's a big clue as to what you need to do in the next part of the error message (after the bit you quote):
Before application variables can be used, the application state management system must be enabled using the CFAPPLICATION tag.
That does kinda explain what you need to do.
It would probably be useful to read up on what it's saying, starting with <cfapplication>:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/CFMLRef/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec22c24-7d 69.html
Or perhaps instead Application.cfc:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec22c24 -7d39.html#WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec22c24-68e0
And probably about the CF application framework in general (indeed the latter is a subsection of this):
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec22c24 -7e19.html
Also, you should not have robust exception handling switched on on a production server. Switch it off.

Unable to open Elements due to date change

I'm running PE6 on Windows XP.
I recently tried to reuse it after a long while, but all I got was the editing space with a white blank box in the middle (which usually holds the info about registration etc) which won't close so I can't use the program.
How do I get to use the program again?
I suspect this might have something to do with a date change. My Pc battery run out and I had to reset the date manually everytime by going into the registry a number of times before I replaced the battery.
Thanks in advance for help

Try browsing to the program file and look in the Adobe folder and then the PSE 6.0 folder
PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe is about 29mb in size
Right click and select open and see if that works.

Can't open itunes due to data execution prevention error

I am currently unable to open itunes due to a data execution prevention error. I have tried to clear temp files, uninstall and reinstall and nothing seems to work. I tried to disable DEP for itunes but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me?

Try the following, one at a time:
1. First Repair QuickTime. START/CONTROL PANEL/ADD OR REMOVE PROGRAMS/highlight QUICKTIME, click REMOVE, then select REPAIR.
Now test your itunes and see if you still have this problem
2. If you have Codec installed, please uninstall it and test out your iTunes.
3. If all that fail, scan your system for possible Windows system file corruption:
Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator" (for Win XP-just click command prompt)
type in
sfc /scannow
let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.
Open iTunes and see if problem resolved.

New BB Z30 Freezing, Docs are unable to Open, microSD card automatically formatted after restart, unable to open Some Pictures, Long time for Charging

I purchased a new BlackBerry Z30 recently from http://store.shopblackberry.com/store/bbrryus/en_US/pd/productID.298806900/categoryID.66826600/paren... and my Phone Model number is STL 100-5. I also purchased a Z30 Leather flip case manufactured by BlackBerry. I am using my BlackBerry Z30 along with the Z30 Leather flip case.
1) Within the first 2 weeks of receiving and using the new BB Z30 device, I noticed a problem of screen not responding some times. My phone has been freezed at the lock screen. My phone is not responding to any key except for the power button. So, I had an option of only restart/Turn Off my BlackBerry Z30 device. All the time whenever I had this problem, I have to restart my device in order to make it work properly again. I complained about this issue with BlackBerry Technical Support. They assisted me to reset the device to factory settings by taking a full backup. After reset also, I still had the same issue.
2) I am using Sandisk Extreme microSD card of 32GB with my BB Z30 device. Some times due to the restart option, all the data which I had on my microSD card is being erased and is filled with an unknown files.
3) I'm also unable to open some pictures which I have taken using BlackBerry Z30. As I observed, most of the pictures which I taken using Blackberry Z30 are unable to be open/view them after a few days. Still, I am able to observe the properties of those pictures. They are in JPEG format only.
4)Also If I create a Word Document on BlackBerry Z30 using Docs to Go Application and saved it. After closing that particular document and If I try to open it, the document file is not opening and projecting me an error of "This is not a valid .Doc file", but while I check the properties of that particular document it is in .doc format. I tried to transfer the file to my laptop using bluetooth. After a few seconds (approx 2-3 seconds) automatically the transferring is cancelled by the BlackBerry Z30 device. However, I tried to transfer the file within that short time using Bluetooth. While I tried to open it on my laptop using Microsoft Office 2013, the file is displaying with a squares of upto 4 pages while I had a content in it of 3 lines only. While I opened my file using Microsoft Office 2013, there is only squares available in that document.
5) My new BlackBerry Z30 is taking a long time of approximately 6-7 hours to charge the device from 10% to 100%
I request someone to help me with this issues. I would like to thank everyone who can help me with these issues in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

On 7th of Jan 2015 I made my device to factory reset. Also I removed microSD card from my device. As I observed for these 3 days, one time while I received a missed call, I tried to have a look at it. I observed that my screen has been freeze at the receiving call position and its not responding. I tried to close and reopened the display of my device with a flip case which I'm currently using for my device. At this time, after 3-4 swipes to unlock the device, again its back into working condition.
About Documents, I'm able to create, save and open the documents without any issues till now.
About Pictures, they are also working fine without any issues.
I also observed the charging time as approximately 3 hours for charging the device from 14% to 100%.

Unable to open .eps file "unknown format and cannot be opened" ?

A client sent me an .eps file (logo). I tried opening it in Illustrator AND photoshop (just to see if it was saved in one vs the other program) - however to no avail.
Illustrator gives me a message "unknown format and cannot be opened"
Photoshop gives me a message "photoshop was unable to parse the postscript".
I'm using Adobe CS4, and I've never seen this message before—would love to know what this means and how to resolve?
File attached if anyone is able to open / fix it?
Thanks kindly,
Chemol

Thanks for the advice Scott - does compression improve the .eps? Is it
silly for me to ask them to compress it since the file is only 766 KB
(that's how big the attachment is in my email - though I am unable to open
it)?
My friend is able to open it on his end - however the 3rd person (client) is
the one who sent it, and I have already requested a different version - no
response from them yet. Unfortunately what the company "has" is what he
will likely give to me again (ie: same file / unable to open). So ... I am
curious about how I can resolve this issue on my end - if possible?
Do you know what the AI and Photoshop error messages mean? Could the issue
be a mac vs PC concern? Or is it a corrupt file? Could it be a software
version issue (old vs new) ... or Quark incompatibility?
.... just guessing at this point....Any insight as to what different
scenarios may apply in this situation would be greatly appreciated ..thank
you.

Hey guys,
So this is follow up from my debarkle with the EDD. I found out my problem with copying files from Mac to EDD and vice versa was a result of a not so good EDD ( i had an apollo hard drive from imation) that was not very compatible with macs. So i did my research and found out that the best hard drives were Western Digital and Seagate. I bought the newest western digital EDD 1TB and formated it to FAT32 and guess what...no problems so far. The only problem is that FAT32 format doesn't copy files larger than about 4 gigs so i couldnt copy a movie from my brothers computer onto my EDD that was 1080p. You could probably resolve that by partitioning a small part of your hard drive in ExFAT? but yeah, hopefully that helped guys.

Unable to open message. Format not supported.

This problem has already been discussed here however I can provide some more detailed information. Our company runs a network of automatic telemetry stations. The stations send short messages containing some data to the users. Even though the message contains only a plain text and can be displayed on most mobile phones without any problem, it can't be displayed on some Nokia phones, e.g.. N8 and 2630. The model 2630 shows "Message cannot be displayed". The N8 shows "Unable to open message. Format not supported", but the beginning of the message (preview) is readable in the inbox.
On the sender side the Wavecom wireless CPU model Q2686 is used. I tried to send various messages using AT+CMGS command but regardless of the content they cannot be displayed on N8 and 2360.
Please help. If anyone is interested in this problem I can demonstrate it by sending an 'undisplayable' message to his mobile phone number.

Hi,
I have N8, and same thing happened to me when i recieved MMS Confg. for using operator internet mobile, "Message Format not supported"
about me i change to another GSM operator, and its work now.
i think u can add an access point manually, go to ur GSM Operator and take the setup details, and from conective > setting > Destinations > Add new acc. pt.
Hope this will help u.

HT1199 iTunes unable to open due to DEP

I am unable to open iTunes after installing due to Data Prevention Execution program preventing it from opening iTunes. I have clicked on the DEP to allow iTunes to open and restarted the PC, still same problem remains. Your advice on this? Thanks!

I then decided to try to 'reconstruct' my iTunes library, following the support guides, by holding the option key when opening iTunes and selecting 'Create New Library'
Did iTunes work well, when you created a new, empty library in your account? If yes, then the database files xml, itl from your current iTUnes Library are probably corrupted. Can you restore them from your most recent backup?
