Unable to see View in TOAD, but can see in SQL Developer - oracle

I am using TOAD for Oracle version 11.0.5.1. I am able to see a View in an Oracle schema when I login using Oracle SQL Developer. But, when using TOAD, I am NOT able to access the View or see any data in it. For another View, I can access the View, but it doesn't return any data. I am able to access other DB objects though. Any idea why I can see via Oracle SQL Developer and not via TOAD in the same PC, same database, same schema?
I also tried in another system (PC) where TOAD 12.6.053 is installed, and I was able to access the views, and see data when I query it.
Not sure if there is any session or NLS parameters that might be causing this. Please help.
P.S. - This view that I am trying to access is in another schema, but I have access to query the view. Hence, I am able to access and see the data through Oracle SQL Developer.

Connecting with another Oracle user within the Oracle Apex platform

I have access to that user in SQL Developer. How can I access this same user in Apex, to make any query?
Talk to your Apex admin. They should map that schema (i.e. user with all its objects) to your workspace.
Alternatively, you could create a database link from your current user (the one you already use in Apex) to the one that contains data you're interested in. Then you could access data over that database link, perhaps create synonyms in your schema (to make it simpler). Though, I'd probably go for the 1st option I suggested.
But, if you don't use Apex yet, then - back to Apex admin again; they should create a workspace for you, let you use schema you're talking about, create an Apex developer for you and - that should do it.

Can Toad (for Oracle) connect to a database I've created in my computer?

I've created a database via MS Access & I've created some tables within it. I want to know if it's possible to access it via Toad & how can I achieve it.
I managed to create the DB, but I'm seeing that Toad has three options for connection: TNS Names, LDAP or Direct (I don't really know the difference between the three). What would I need to do to connect it successfully?
I'm expecting to be able to login to my Database using Toad & do queries on it.

SQL Server Migration Assisstant (SSMA) doesn't see my schema in Oracle

I can connect to my 12c Oracle database using Oracle's Sql Developer and see my schema, but when I connect via SSMA I can't. I see a bunch of other schemas in SSMA, which I assume came with Oracle because I've only created two users on the box and I don't see either of them in SSMA. I'm connecting using the System account, so I don't think it would be a permissions issue. As you might be able to tell I don't know much about Oracle. Where could my schema be hiding?

How to use Oracle Grid Control management repository view to check if the "block change tracking" enabled on all dbs?

I couldn't find a Oracle Grid Control management repository view to check if "block change tracking" enabled for all Oracle 11g databases being monitored by GC 11g. I know I can query the v$block_change_tracking on an Oracle database, but there are 100+ Oracle 11g databases in my environment, I hope I could pull this information from a view like MGMT$DB_INIT_PARAMS, which doesn't contain such information. I searched Oracle doc: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/em.102/b16246/views.htm#BACDADEJ, but found nothing. Your help is greatly appreciated!
Since this is not a initialization parameter you won't find it in the view MGMT$DB_INIT_PARAMS.
You have to query the view V$BLOCK_CHANGE_TRACKING:
select STATUS from V$BLOCK_CHANGE_TRACKING;
In GridControl there is a page where you can execute a SQL statement on all configured/selected targets and view the result in a table. I can't recall where exactly that page is because I used it only once and all my GridControl servers are already migrated to CloudControl.
But perhaps you can find it with this information.

Need help linking oracle tables in MS Access

I am having some issues connection to an oracle DB using MS Access.
If I use SQL Developer to connect to the Oracle DB I see pretty much every table and view in the DB however when I connect using MS Access I only get a selected few.
I tough it was because the user didn't have Select privileges on the tables I need so I requested the privilege and after a moth of waiting I finally got it but I still cant see the tables on the Access tool.
This is what I see on SQL Developer vs MS access. I need SFMFG.PWUI_CHAR_DEF_EXT to show on access table manager. Any help to solve this mystery is greatly appreciated.
Using Access 2010, if I select External Data ==> ODBC Database ==> Link to the datasource by creating a linked table, I get a windows dialogue of all the available datasources. When I log in to the one I want, I see the names of all the tables I am authorized to select from.
The Linked Table Manager only shows the tables for which there are existing links.
