Thank you very much Wolfgang and Michael for your help and information.
Now I know how to get the predicted values.

For information, my "mean" is the effect size for the one-sample-case. 
Obviously I used misleading labels, but I calculated the same with CMA and 
getting the same results, so it should be okay.

Best wishes,
Alma

You do not need to specify both vi and sei as one is sufficient and 
you do not need ni as well.
I realise that is not the question you asked (which Wolfgang has 
already answered).
