Please have a look.
rails#rails-desktop:~/rails/app$ heroku addons:add herokuconnect
Adding herokuconnect on app... failed
! That add-on plan is only available to select users.
I am unable to add this add-on.
Please describe that what is the issue.
Actually looks like heroku-postgresql has been updated to heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev

Give one try to add this addon from Heroku Addon Dashboard Interface.
This is because Heroku connect is available to selected business users.
And you have to tell business purpose to Heroku for using Heroku connect to get this addon.

I am trying to get heroku setup locally on my new laptop to be able to access an existing heroku account that has two existing rails apps on it. I was able to install heroku cli locally and I was able to login to heroku. If I run "heroku apps" it lists my two apps. But two things I need help with:
1) I can't remember how to tell heroku which app the git repo in the current folder on my laptop should work with on heroku server. in other words, how do i "select" which app i want to current work with after logging into heroku.
2) when I tried running the "heroku config" command to list existing config vars after logging it it gave me some kind of error message. need some suggestions on what might be causing that too.
Sorry to not include screen shots of errors but on a different company right now. hopefully you can at least help me answer the first question.
Thanks,
Edward
ps. I found this Q&A, does the answer here apply to my question (1)?
How to link a folder with an existing Heroku app
The cause turned out to be that I needed to add the heroku app location as a remote repo using the heroku cli from within my local git repo I had created. I used the following command:
heroku git:remote -a thawing-inlet-61413
where "thawing-inlet-61413" is the name of the app. You can get this by running:
heroku apps
and it will list them.

How can I turn off Postgres database addon on a Heroku app? I have looked in various questions on SO and also visited Heroku documentation but was unable to find any help related to this.
You can reset the database, destroy the database or remove the addon on heroku, but then you lose all your data. Unless you made a backup.
I am sharing a MongoDB between a few heroku apps and would like to move the ownership/billing to another app.
I have tried attaching (heroku addons:attach) to the receiving app and then using the heroku addons:detach command on the billing app, but this doesn't work.
Heroku support just confirmed that it is not possible to change the billing app for an add-on.
You can attach the add-on to other apps, but if you delete the original billing app then it will instantly delete your database without warning - even if it is attached to other active apps.
Some add-ons like Postgres offer a fork option, so you may be able fork, reconnect to the new instance, and delete the old database. The Postgres fork command looks like:
heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:standard-0 --fork the-old-app-name::HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_CHARCOAL --app the-new-app-name
Where HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_CHARCOAL is the ENV variable name of your old database on your old app.
I am trying to install cloudant on my vulcan based app.
However when I try to add the free version of cloudant through the heroku addons I get the following error:
Could not communicate with vendor, please try again later
Want to confirm if this is a temporary vendor issue or is it something with my app?
I contacted Heroku support and was told Heroku is in the process of removing the add-on. I don't know any further details, but it looks like in order to have Cloudant work on Heroku you'll need to set the account up yourself.
This sounds like an error in the brokering between Heroku and Cloudant. If you can file a ticket with support#cloudant.com (including account information and time of the failure) we can track it down on our side and see if there's action we can take. Alternatively, you can always signup directly at cloudant.com as a short-term work around.
Is it possible to attach addons to a standalone postgres database created at https://postgres.heroku.com ? I'm using the dev plan.
The database details page # https://postgres.heroku.com/databases/ shows "Heroku PG-Backups addon not attached" under Snapshots heading. I couldn't find a way to add the PG-Backups addon.
You probably need to take a look at the docs: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/pgbackups#provisioning-the-add-on
