Want to start learning Oracle or PL/SQL from scratch.

Hello All,
Please guide me as how to start learning PL/SQL and Oracle from scratch.
Whether I should follow a particular book and go on as given in the book or should I directly take the queries and all and start solving them.
Thanks in advance...

Its a good track. For start you should know the PL/sql and sql very well and you can start it like ORacle developer if not directly DBa and then taking kknowledge of administrationand other modules like Backup and REcovery and Performance tuning you can shift to the DBA side.
job prospects are very good but you need to be very confident and very alert in this job plus llittle clever as well.
But for now stop thinking so far and just start learning it and start doing it. Doing it means perform every thing practically.
Regards,
Navneet

Need Best way to start learning Oracle 11g DBA

Hi.This is Tejaswi.
I want to learn Oracle 11g DBA.I've downloaded all software's and Documentation for Orcl 11g R2. Now. i want to start Learning DBA. Can any one suggest me the best way to Start learning DBA?
Please suggest me the good books For Oracle Architecture and SQL.......

Hello Tejaswi,
The advice you got about reading the Oracle Concepts and 2 Day DBA documentation is very good advice.
I found that knowing some SQL*Plus and SQL Developer was also very helpful as, they both provide a way to interface with the database and try the things you read about. For SQL Plus, I used the book:
Oracle SQL*Plus: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition
By Jonathan Gennick
Publisher : O'Reilly
ISBN : 0-596-00746-9 I openly recommend it. It is easy to read, the book is very well thought out, it covers what you really need to know (and more too). The author explains the subjects very well. I would definitely learn some SQL Plus and SQL developer before getting into the 2 Day DBA document (make those 2 days about 7 days each if not more).
To learn SQL, I "sort of" used (I say "sort of" because I only read some parts of it available online and at the local bookstore):
Oracle SQL by Example
By Alice Rischert
Publisher: Prentice Hallit probably has more SQL than you'd need as a DBA but, it is an excellent book you may want to consider.
If you are starting from scratch, as I did, you'll find that you need to learn multiple things at the same time. I believe SQL Plus is the best place to start, along with possibly the Concepts document. That will give you a base to build upon.

Starting Learning Oracle Form Developer

Hi Experts,
i m oracle dba. i wan to start learning Oracle Form Developer 10g . please any one can share documentation that can help me out to start this domain.
regards,

Is there a particular reason you are starting with an old version and not the latest (11.1.2.0)? Version 10.1.2 will begin its end of life cycle at the end of this year. Meaning, Error Correction Support will end. Learning with the newest version will give you the advantage of working with the latest features and a more stable version.
At any rate.... how easy it will be to learn will all depend on your current skill set and your prior experience with other development tools. I would suggest you first get a basic understand of how Forms works before you start to build an application. Building an application in Forms is mostly easy because the more common features are wizard driven. However, understand what to do once you create an app might take a little more thought and an understanding of basic web principles.
The version 10 documentation (mostly related to deployment) can be found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/documentation/techlisting10gr2-093389.html
Here you will find many white papers which include everything from complex concepts to basic product overviews.
You can access similar content for all of the recent versions from the top page located here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/overview/index.html
The Forms Builder help is a good place for design time information.

How would I replace just the (imported) movie portion without having to start over the entire iDVD project from scratch?

I've just added a new ending and want to burn the new version of my iDVD project. How would I replace just the (imported FCE) movie portion without having to start over the entire iDVD project from scratch?

In an attempt to help clarify:
The FCE 3.5 project I first wrote about had 10 chapters and was a mix of stills and transcoded DSLR video clips that measured 58 min in length. After FCE converted it to a Quicktime movie, it exported from FCE to iDVD 7 flawlessly until I was asked to make a last minute change.
My older software wasn't endowed with the ability to "detect modifications". However, Deleting Assets was successful and a revised version of the original video could substituted saving me from starting iDVD over from scratch (thanks to Old Toad). Luckily, the ugly iDVD BUG did not awaken during these procedures. Thanks Bengt W.
I hope this helps the discussion.

I want to program iPhone applications, want to start learning from scratch. Where do I start?

I have wanted to program for a long time and now I have a mac I want to begin on the wright track. Which language should I start learning and what others will I need in the future? I started learning c++ awhile back but wasn't sure if it was the right language for iPhone development so stopped till I could afford a mac as I couldn't be an iPhone programmer without a mac anyway. Any advice to put me on the right track would be brilliant and much appreciated. Also I heard learning design is a major aspect, when should I learn this or should it just be picked up through learning a language. And I should add I don't want to go to college or university as I am doing this as something ontop of my full time job. Thanks

My mid-2009 MacBook Pro's hard drive is near death. I want to install a new SSD and work from scratch. Please help.

Recently, my mid-2009 MacBook Pro has been crashing when I close the screen ("it's having a problem recognizing when the screen is closed/open and deciding what to do, error overload etc."). It wasn't an SMC issue so I took it to an Apple Store, ran some tests, and decided my hard-drive is failing.
Not wanting to spend an insane amount of money on some "official apple hard-drive," I want to install a new 256GB SSD instead. Hoping to squeeze as much life out of this computer as possible (in January I upgraded from 4 GB RAM to 8 GB), I would like to try and start from scratch, i.e. back-up important folders, music, photos etc. and only take that to the new hard-drive. If someone could explain all the steps I need to take to safely complete this task (or point me in the direction of a guide) I'd appreciate it.
Potentially Important info:
     Model:                mid-2009 13'' MacBook Pro
     Processor:          2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
     Memory:             4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
     Software:            OS X 10.8.4
Some additional questions I have...
     Should I be concerned with making a fully bootable back-up (not sure what that is called) as well? If so, what program should I use to create it?
     How much more life should I try and push out of this computer? I'm an engineering student and really only use it for web-surfing, music, and
          word-processing. The batter was replaced in March, the RAM was upgraded to 8 GB in January. When the battery was swapped, the trackpad went           nuts so that's new too. Only other issues are a slightly loose audio jack and the left side of the screen being slightly wobbly (hinge is worn I'm told).

Well there is no "official Apple HD / SSD" in any regard, no worries there.
If as you say youre only using same for surfing and word processing, why the need for a SSD? You would not notice any speed diff. in use on either of those,....in boot times yes, but in word or surfing, not.
You can push it likely a few more years, for mere surfing and word processing,...many many years.   Up TO the point that any major fixes become unrealistic relative to getting a new(ER) machine.
Concerned with a boot clone? yes and no. Its an ideal immediate recovery, since you cannot boot from Time Machine, ....in case of HD crash, recovery takes seconds from boot, or 20 mins or so from removing old and installing a clone. All the prosumers and pros have at least one updated clone of their prime machines.
You can do a "fresh install" if you choose, however if your current drive is FINE, why not merely clone it and save yourself some headache?...., but that is your prerogative of course.    Ideally 2 drives, one to backup your data (you need that regardless of installing a new drive for sake of a backup/archive,...ideally 2 actually, not merely one).
You could clone internal to NEW SSD/HD , ...then offload unnecessary files to an external to free up space and clutter and run off the clone, and this would only take a couple hours......the clone itself takes approx. 40+ mins.
CLONE Apps :
Superduper does not clone the recovery partition, but that is NOT necessary if you keep the original HD as a “backup clone”. Most don’t bother with the recovery partition in a clone, however that is your prerogative.

Start learning Oracle Applications...

Hi All,
I need some help in getting more knowledge about Oracle Application Servers and About Oracle forms and reports.
I have basic administration knowledge with Oracle 8i 9i and 10g.
But I have no idea about Oracle forms, reports and Oracle Application like HR and Payroll.
I am planning to start to increase my knowledge in the above mentioned topics.
According to my understanding, Now I should be knowing about the Middle Tier that is the place where Oracle application servers run(HTTP, Load balancing etc..)
I guess Oracle forms, reports, application runs on this middle tier.
I need help from experts from how should I proceed from here. and Am I thinking correctly.
Any help with this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Thanks for reply
Truly speaking I want to learn as Jobs are available in market.
But I am totally new to the versions as you have said.
T
he Information what I have got from above comments:
Oracle forms current version available is 6i. (application development and deployment)
Oracle Application (HR Payroll Financial) current version available is 11i (oracle aplication implementation)
question:
I think all of them run on middle tier ie:
Oracle Application server 10g ( which is the latest version)
which can be connected to any version of oracle database (8i 9i or 10g)
Am I right??

I want to start learning Java

I want to learn Java, and write Java codes. I searched through this website for an article which explains what a develepment environment I must have, but couldn't find anything, because it is designed in a too formal manner.
Can you simply give me a list of software to install to setup myself a Java development system?

You kept giving me links from this website. I said it is very fomal and %95 of the information is trivia.
Anyway I found the answer on a third party program's website:
http://www.jcreator.com/installation.htm
All I need is
1) JDK
2) A Java IDE
Is this right?Of course, JCreator is a nice IDE for beginners. Also, it is simple to use.
