User Accts on 9i

I just downloaded a copy of Oracle 9i. This question is probably rudimentary, and I apologize for that, but I can't figure out how to create a user account to be used in SQL+.
Thanks in advance for any help.

First, technical questions should be addressed to one of the technical forums. In this case, Products | Database | Database - General would be appropriate.
The syntax for the CREATE USER command is available in the Oracle SQL Reference http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/statements_84a.htm#SQLRF01503 Basically, you want to log in as system and run something like:
CREATE USER <<user name>>
  IDENTIFIED BY <<password>>
  DEFAULT TABLESPACE <<user's tablespace>>;
GRANT <<privilege>> TO <<user name>>;Minimally, you'll need to grant at least CREATE SESSION to allow the user to connect to the database. If this is just a play database, you might grant CONNECT and RESOURCE, but these roles are often more powerful than you really need.

  • How do I export photo's from one user acct. to another user acct

    Trying to export photo's from one user acct. to another user acct. on same computer into second users Iphoto app.

    File -> Export to the destop. Drag to Users/Shared Folder and then import from other account.
    Or use iPhoto Sharing:
    For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
    (You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
    In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

  • Acrobat X Pro won't open, get error message from Windows user acct controls

    Using Windows 7. Installed okay and all other components of CS work. User acct Control asks permission to change C drive. Whatever I answer does not work. I have answered yes or no, give admin priviliges, reset user acct control settings, reinstalled, etc.

    Can you please post the exact error message you are receiving?  Did you receive any error messages during the install process?  Has Acrobat X ever worked on your Windows 7 system?

  • Copying files from admin acct to new user acct

    hello, i read in the new macworld that i should try to avoid using the admin acct as a daily user. so i'm taking there advice. the problem i have is when i create another user, its settings are reverted back to when you first installed os x. i don't want this. i tried copying my users folder from my admin acct but whn i switch over to my new user acct the settings are still set to default.
    at first i put them in the shared folder with my admin acct and when i switched over to the new user that folder didn't give me access. what am i doing wrong?
    thx

    There is a far easier way to do this without having to move files between user accounts:
    1) Go to System Preferences -> Accounts and make a new admin account
    2) Go to System Preferences -> Accounts -> your original account, and un-check "Allow user to administer this computer"
    All done!

  • Transfering librarys between 2 user accts on MacBook Pro

    So when I bought my new MacBook Pro, I started a new user account and imported my user acct from my Black MacBook.  This may have been a mistake because now I have an iTunes library and an iPhoto library for each user.  I would like to import these libraries from my old MacBook user acct to the new acct I set up on the new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way to do this?  I ultimately want to delete the old MacBook acct and just have one user on my MacBook Pro.  Does that make sense?
    Thanks!
    T

    Your problem is, one user, even an Admin user, doesn't normally have access to another user's stuff.   That's kinda the point of separate accounts.
    There's no eay way to "merge" accounts.  See Transferring files from one User Account to another.
    Your best bet is probably to start over, and use Setup Assistant.  See How do I set up a new Mac from my old Mac or its backups? and note the green "Second chance" box there.

  • CanI transfer music /apps purchased from one itunes user acct to a new user acct established?

    Can I transfer music/apps purchased from one itunes user acct to a new user acct established?

    No, you cannot.
    they are tied to the account from which they were purchased.
    Why start a new account?

  • Created new user acct. deleted old user acct. can't access old TM backups

    After changing the name on my home folder and deleting and creating a user account I can't access the old backups when I enter time machine.
    After creating the new user acct TM did a full complete backup that I can access
    Is this normal behavior or a problem?
    All of the above was done working with AppleCare
    Thanks for helping a Mac newbie.

    Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Users
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V), and press return. A folder will open with the home folders of all users as subfolders. Enter Time Machine. You should now be able to see your old home folder in the snapshots that were taken before you renamed it.

  • How  do you repair a user acct?

    How do you repair a user acct?
    I seem to have a corrupt admin user acct.
    I created another admin acct and the problem does not re-occur. I can open it by Command O and also clicking the finder.
    All other GUI mouse functions appear to be working properly. This problem also exhibits itself on a Jump drive if it is mounted.
    Additionally the "A" icon on the Applications folder mysteriously disappeared. It now displays just a plain folder.
    I am on a MBP running 10.6.8
    Thank you all in advance

    Everything else seems to be working fine.
    I opened terminal and something is puzzling
    it says:
    bryinc-g5:~ bgould$
    This seems to refer to an older mac I have in my office.
    It's not even on nor has it been for sometime.
    My MBP that I am experiencing this issue with was never on the network when the G5 was in use.
    The user name is what the G5 had but is not what this mac is using.
    Very weird
    I am not sure I understood what you meant by dragging the house Icon from the root folder also
    This is what I have so far

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Running Win7 and ITunes 10.6 - loaded all my old CD's in one user acct. I want to share these with all other users on the machine without reloading the CD's and without having to make copies of their disk images, if possible. Also, want them on my WinXP

    Running ITunes 10.6, on a Win7 Home Premium SP1. Just loaded about thirty of my favorite CD's on my user account.
    I would like to be able to make all of them available to my other family members in their accounts on my machine, without needing to reload them all and without having to store their disk images multiple times. Can this be done, and if so, how?
    And can I copy the contents of a folder across to my wife's WinXP SP3 machine, and have them made available to each of us in our login accts on that machine?
    (There are three of us, plus an admin and a backup admin account, on each.)
    I will be really grateful if someone can help me do this for my family members, as we have shared the music on these CD's over the years, and I would like to make them available on the desktop for each of us.
    Also, I'd like to be able to load them, or a subset of them, to my wife and son's IPods. Any Tips, Traps or Tweaks for that process, as well?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
    Not sure about the OS level for the IPods. I am doing this for my wife and son, using an account here created for my son, which he shares with me for support purposes. But I do know they both have IPods, and our PC's and their OS's were described above.

    You can move the iTunes folder to a separate drive on your pc an then configure each account to use this drive / folder as iTunes library ... The problem is, that iTunes by default stores everything in your personal music folder which is separate for each user account in windows (and by default is on "C" drive).
    I create a separate partition on every pc/laptop (and map a drive name) where I store music, videos and other mass data. This will also keep the "C" drive small, which is backed up from time to time and so my backup is also small.

  • Can't log into my main user acct! How can I fix this? Help, I'm stumped!

    OK, here's the problem. While using my machine with VMware, I got the beachball of death. Nothing would respond and no keystrokes would bring up force quit. I finally had to press and hold start to shutdown.
    When I restarted my machine first the grey screen came up and then a grey progress line was shown and finally completed. After that, the regular log in screen came up.
    Here is where the problem begins. When I go to log in, (enter my password) it pauses briefly and then a blue screen comes up for a moment, and then it returns to the log in screen. This is a never ending cycle and the same thing happens if I shutdown and restart.
    I can however log in into the guest account OK
    Here's what I've done so far. Opened Disk Utility from guest acct and repaired permissions and reset PRAM. So far no luck,
    If all attempts to log in fail, can I access my main user files from the guest account? I suppose if I have to reload everything I can restart in Target mode and get everything off to an external HD.
    Please, if you have any suggestions, please let me know! Thanks!!!

  • Adobe reader on new MacBook Pro.  Will not open in my user acct. but will work in guest acct.

    I TRIED REMOVING AND RE-INSTALLING, SAME PROBLEM.  ANY SUGGESTIONS ??

    After you finished installing did you launch Adobe Reader from your /Applications folder and accept EULA(End User License Agreement)?
    What is your Adobe Reader version?
    What browser are you using and browser version?
    Thank You.

  • Safari (7.0.1) is non-responsive (spinning pinwheel) upon start up.  It will work in temp user account but not in my main user acct.  I tried reinstall via comman-r prompt on start up but the problem persists.  Any suggestion for reinstall or repair?

    Safari is non-responsive after intitial start up.  Before it can load the homepage (google), it will hang and give a perpetual pinwheel until I force quit the program.  Safari works in temporary user account but not in my primary user account.  I have reinstalled osx via the command-r upon start up and the problem still persists.  Any suggestions on how to reinstall or repair safari?

    Thanks for thinking about my problem. I've already experimented with creating a new user, a co-administrator. The programs don't crash when that account is running, just as they don't crash when the guest-user's account runs. So it seems that the problem is limited to the default user's account, which is the one that was running when I installed the updates to the OS and the firmware. Another clue is that the programs that crash as soon as they are launched are *probably* the ones that were open at that time in that account. Yet deleting Saved Application States does not keep the programs from crashing when next launched.
    So the mystery continues, but these additional facts will help with the diagnosis, I hope.
    Thanks again for your suggestion.

  • The user acct my apple was connected to no longer works (corrupt).  My Apple TV is still synced to that account and all of my recent purchases are going to that username.  Does anyone know how to get all of the purchased items back and to the new user?

    The user profile my appleTV was synced on my computer to no longer works (corrupt).  My Apple TV is still synced to that profile and all of my recent purchases are going to that username.  Does anyone know how to get all of the purchased items back and to the new user (same computer)?  I created a new user on my computer and moved the itunes folder to the desktop but never changed the path to which the apple synced to.  Now I can only see old items I purchased before the user profile went bad.  PLease help!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Changing the library the Apple TV is synced with will delete all synced content from the Apple TV, but it won't delete purchased content.
    You should be able to change the library, resync any content you want and transfer your purchases back to the new library.

  • Messed with user acct name & now can't use new MacBook Pro I just received!

    I ordered a MacBook Pro 17" i5 for my sister off eBay that was only about 2 months old and seemed brand new. When it arrived this week I charged it up and then began tweaking the prefs and parameters for her, including some custom things and attempting to set up personal accounts for both of us. Since it was not brand new I didn't have to go thru the usual welcome & set-up process. The seller had a generic name "macuser" as the sole user account with no password. When I went to set up the user accounts in the system prefs pane, I foolishly changed the user name from "macuser" to my chosen personal name. It confirmed all was changed successfully, but upon logging out and then attempting to restart it just hangs on the gray apple startup screen indefinitely. In hindsight, I realize I should've created a new user name and then logged in under that and only then deleted the original "macuser" name (although I'm not sure why it let me change the current one "successfully" if that was going to be an issue). I could've duplicated the user folder, named it what I wanted, then when I went to create the new account in system prefs it would ask me if I wanted to use that folder for the new name that it found.
    The seller did not have or include any of the restore/install DVD's and I don't have a copy of Snow Leopard (still using Leopard on my MacBook Pro 15") to boot it up with. I'm sure it has to do with directory issues and the system now confused by the new user name created from the old one in this unclean, sloppy way. I tried rebooting in "safe mode" but that is not working (progress bar but still hangs on gray startup screen). Then, I thought about hooking the two MB Pro's together via FireWire and booting the new one up in target disk mode. I was able to access the files this way, but obviously I couldn't change anything via the system prefs of the new MB Pro while in target disk mode. The only thing I could possibly think of was to change the user name on the home folder back to "macuser" in case the computer was looking for that. To be safe I even duplicated that folder and renamed the duplicate with the personal name I had first switched in the system prefs pane (causing this mess). I figured if it had two duplicate user folders, one with each name, I could cover my bases. It would recognize one at least, whichever it was looking for: the original I changed sloppily and/or the new one that I replaced it with and was now registered in system prefs. But unfortunately, that still didn't work.
    I was supposed to deliver it and set her up this weekend, but the DVD copies the seller made upon my request were sent out yesterday and probably won't be here until next week. I even thought of logging in as "sudo" or root user, but everything I've read about that seems to indicate you must first set some parameters on the computer to do that before restarting, which of course I cannot access it to do. I'm in quite a pinch, so any ideas I have not thought of would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Apparently the seller gets these wholesale in bulk (maybe at a discount since they are not brand new but still under original warranty and show that they are only a few months old). He said "they didn't send him any this time", but yeah, At the very least I should've gotten those DVD's with it. Maybe I'll ask him or look into securing the originals from Apple.
    So is there nothing I can do until I get the discs?

Maybe you are looking for
