Install and Run Oracle SQL on a MAC

I'm driving a little crazy... I need to install and run the "HR" database on SQL Developer on my Mac. I've dowloaded the SQL developer... but now I don't know how to make the connection... I'm pretty new in this, so any help will be awesome.

Get Oracle Virtual Box and install the virtual appliance, also available on OTN. Both are free, assuming you're not trying to run a production instance.

There's no Oracle database available for MAC. And SQL Developer is just a client - it lets you work with a database, but it IS NOT A DATABASE.

I talk about what your options are here in depth but the easiest way to go is to pull down our VirtualBox image and run that - it's all free for learning purposes.

enter image description here

HR is on there, you can logon as HR/oracle@localhost:1521/orcl
