Why can't I connect via isqlplus when via sqlplus I can?

I don't know why my connect string sopra/sopra@sopra_toshiba works fine for sqlplus but not for isqlplus where I get:
ERROR:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
What can the problem be? It seems as it can't find the tnsnames entry.
This is the tnsnames entry being used:
SOPRA_TOSHIBA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = toshiba)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = sopra)
(SERVER = DEDICATED)

This is a wild guess. But would iSqlPlus use a tnsnames.ora file associated with the (web) server ?

  • TS1398 I have an original iPad 32 why can't I connect on my home wi-fi but can connect anywhere else. No problems at home connect with other iPads and MACs.

    I have an original iPad 32 why can't I connect on my home wi-fi but can connect anywhere else? No problems at home connect with other iPads and MACs.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Why does my network connection time out when downloading iphone 4 software update?

    Why does my network connection time out when trying to download iphone4 software update?

    I'm having the same problem too. I cannot sync or update over wireless or wired connections ever since I installed the most recent iTunes update. iTunes goes through the complete OS 5.0.1 download only to tell me the connection has timed out just when it seems ready to install. I've since reinstalled iTunes, I've ejected and done hard restarts on both my problem devices. I've disabled anti-virus, anti-malware, and firewall. No change in outcome except that, after doing all this, my final attempt to simply sync my 1st Gen iPad led to iTunes crashing and being automatically closed by windows just before finishing the final step. Is this a cruel joke, because I'm certain I can hear iTunes laughing at me for wasting so much time on this.

    i have tried to connect my iphone 4s via bluetooth and it says that my macbook air is not supporting this feature after i follow all the steps when connecting. Can someone help me with this problem?

    The only thing you can connect an iPhone to your Macbook over BT for would be tethering, which would be done through the Personal Hotspot settings on the iPhone, not the BT settings. iOS doesn't support the BT profiles for trasferring files.

  • Why can't I connect to my 3520 via wireless?

    I have a HP Deskjet 3520, and I am running on Windows 7/64 bit. 
    I have been able to setup my printer through the USB, and I have been able to get my printer connected to the same network, and have setup e-print even. However, I cannot connect to my printer via the wireless, and my iphone cannot detect it through the e-print app.
    I have tried turning odf firewalls, re-installing, turning of every part of the chain (ie laptop, printer, router...)
    I even tried to connect through my MacBook, and still, I can only "see" it through the USB, even though the printer has an IP address and is able to receive documents through e-print.
    Is this a known issue? 

    Printer does not maintain wireless connection.

  • Can no longer connect to remote server via VPN

    I recently installed OS 10.5.8, and have found that I can no longer connect to my server at work. The VPN itself (via PPTP) works fine, it's just that when I try to connect to the remote server (via Connect to Server) I get a dialogue saying 'A volume failed to mount.' A further dialogue says 'Sorry, the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occurred. (Error code -6602)'
    Has anyone found a way around this, please? I'm disabled and I need to be able to work from home – without the connection I'm stuffed! Obviously I've tried rebooting the machine etc, but nothing seems to help.
    Thank you for any assistance you can give.
    Kitty.

    For some random reason this connection has begun working again – please ignore the question!

  • Why does Apple say that Numbers can open and save Excel files, when in actuality, it can only open .XLSX files and only Export to Excel (not save-as excel)?

    When attempting to open .XLS files in Numbers, the format is not recognized. When the format is .XLSX, the format is recognized. Why is it this way? It's still much more common for folks to have the .XLS file format on their excel files. Why would Numbers not be backwards-compatible?
    Additionally, to state in the benefits of this program that one can save to 'Excel' is a little misleading. You can't save to anything except .numbers. Sure, you can export to Excel (with file extension .XLS, I might add), but you can't save or save-as.
    Does anyone else see the irony in being able to export to .XLS but not be able to open an .XLS?
    There is something to be said for clarity.
    You can't expect folks to have Numbers and Excel on their systems, so how else are they supposed to open .XLS files in Numbers?
    And I don't need to see another advertisement for NeoOffice or OpenOffice here, thanks. I'd actually like Numbers to be a little more sensible.
    That is all.

    When the advertisements were written, there was no Lion so we were able to Save As Excel.
    At thiqs time there is no longer Save As command under Lion but the feature is always available.
    When your editing task is ended, you are free to use this scheme:
    File > Duplicate
    File > Save and in the dialog you will have the option save as Excel.
    Numbers isn't and I hope that it will not become an Excel editor.
    Its resources contain a flag defining it this way.
    I posted several times a script editing this resource.

    Why can't I connect to the ITunes Store?Even through I troubleshooted with the info I was e-mailed,created new password,
    made sure date,keychain was correct etc and still cannot open store .I have MacOSX 10.4.11 and it does not let me download
    the latest version of iTunes.I need to speak to someone on the phone as it has been over 3 weeks now and this issue is still
    not resolved. also cannot download any CD's. After reinstalling disc 1 as told by 1 800 MY APPLE (as I was unable to cut and paste
    on my Mac)I ended up having to bring the computer in to the Apple Store on 5th Ave in Manhattan as it also required Disc 2 .
    Unfortunately I did not back up my music library and was not told it would be fully erased due to reinstallation. My 6 year music
    library got completely wiped out.iTunes had a history of my purchases but I received an e-mail stating about 35 songs and
    videos I purchased cannot be retroactive due to modification(I don't know what this means)I greatly appreciate if someone would
    help me clarify this issue.

  • I can no longer connect to the internet via Airport Extreme.  HELP!

    Over the weekend my Macbook told me that my Airport extreme firmware needed to be updated, so I did that, now I have no internet connection from the Airport. I have no problem connecting to the Airport itself, but I have no actual internet connection. The connection is fine when I plug an ethernet cable directly into the computer.
    I really hope someone can help with this!

    Hi DaveX83 and welcome to the discussions.
    A few things to try.
    Press the reset button once on the back of your Extreme and let it restart. Check for proper operation.
    If no help there, keep the ethernet cable connected, and open Airport Utility. Click on Manual Setup near the bottom of the pane. On the next screen click the Airport icon at the upper left of the pane, then click Wireless in the line just below that reads Summary - Time Capsule - Wireless - Access.
    Check to see that your wireless is set up, security set up, passwords, etc. You may need to reconfigure your wireless settings again and update the Extreme to store them and restart.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can´t connect to WiFi when other Mac users can (in Spain)

    Two days ago I went to a coffeeshop with free wifi in Spain and had no trouble using my Airport menubar logo to log on using their network and password. Just type it into the box, press Return, and presto, no problems.
    Today I get Connection timeout errors when I try to do the same thing. When I change the password to something wrong, I get an Invalid Password error, so I know I´ve typed it correctly. I change it back and it goes back to Connection Timeout. Sometimes it waits a moment, sometimes it takes awhile, but it´s always a timeout.
    Other Mac users report no problems. I do exactly the same thing as they do (modulo differences in the language of the menus, of course) and they connect with no problems.
    The cafe changes its procedures periodically to be sure that only customers can connect. The key difference this time seems to be that they specify that the password be WEP 128 bit ASCII. When I use the little Airport logo in the menubar, it doesn´t let me specify this. When I access the Network Diagnostics to specify this, I type in the 10'character password and the Join button is greyed out! It becomes clickable only with a 5 character password. So I tried just the first 5 characters of the password... and again it times out.
    HELP! As you can imagine, all the cafe personnel can only suggest that I reboot and try again.
    What kind of system setting might be different on Macs in Spain versus my Macbook Pro from the U.S. that would cause this frustrating behavior?

    Thanks, Henry. I didn't mean to suggest that engineers were the SOLE cause of the problem. Some of my best friends are engineers (grin)! And thanks for the link to the Apple explanation page.
    But it still frosts my shorts to pay extra for a WiFi card which won't work in certain countries under certain conditions, without any advance warning. And the same goes for countries which have so-called "experts" (the WiFi guru for that cafe, for example) who don't seem to know about the limitations of their country's implementation of a supposed international "standard."

  • Can thunderbolt display connect to Win7 pc via adapter?

    Needing a second large monitor compatible with my two systems: Macbook Pro w Bootcamp Win7 64-bit and HP Win7 64-bit workstation.  Can this display connect to my PC workstation via adapter?  Can it mirror an existing flat screen? The existing flatscreen monitor mirrors the Macbook Pro just fine, except for resolution differences.

    Your Win PC would need a Thunderbolt port.  If it does not there is no adapter that will make it work.
