Toad For Oracle On Mac Was If

Toad For Oracle On Mac Was If

One of my first concerns as a Oracle developer when considering switching to a Mac was if I would be able to access Oracle E-Business Suite.

Or Oracle Applications as many may know it by) Even though the official Oracle E-Business suite blog ( ) clearly states that is supports it, I know from previous experience that it can be quite a mission to work with Jinitiator (the java tool required to access Oracle forms), especially if you are a consultant and move between different sites who uses different versions of E-Business, and more importantly different Jinitiator versions.

From different versions of Jinitiators that clash, to Firefox that dont recognize it, to Internet Explorer crashing on me, I always had problems on Windows, so surely getting it to work on a Mac must be quite a mission right Wrong Since E-Business on a Mac only uses Java and no Jinitiator its a breeze to use, and I could access E-Business with Safari without doing anything, or installing any plugins Apps Login screen Apps Navigation Menu Find Concurrent Request Shipping Transactions Quoting Module Workfow Monitor After it was sooo easy to login to E-Business from Safari, I thought there is no chance of Firefox working so easily.

I fired up Firefox and logged into E-Business again without having to install anything.

Awesome Oracle Financials in Firefox Something I did pick up though which is very annoying is the default assignments of the F-keys in Mac OS X.

Since its the default way to search in E-Business with the F11-key, but in Leopards System Prefrences its set to Desktop.

The easiest way to get rid of this problem is to go to System Preferences - Keyboard Mouse - Keyboard Shortcuts - Desktop, and deselect it.

My conclusion is that it is even easier to work on Oracle E-Business suite on Mac OS X than on Windows, and I would recommend any E-Business user who is thinking of switching, to seriously consider it Applications Versions Used: Mac OS X Leopard: 10.5.3 Safari: 3.1.1 Oracle E-Business Suite: 11i Java: build 1.5.013-119 Firefox: 3.0.

Now im confusing to install oracle e-business 11i on my MAC 10.5.5 using safari 3.2.2.

My oracle training provider use them local server by use wi-fi to connect and install oracle e-business suite.

Im not sure what you mean by install You wont be able to install Oracle Apps on your mac, but youll be able to access the server from it.

Thus you can use exactly the same link that Windows users use to access Oracle Applications.

Well I have tried many times to install the E-business suite but everytime I have faced one or the other error.

So I finally switched to Windows mode but after knowing the facts that I was ignoring I will try the way you have explained.
