Can't get rid of self assigned IP address
Hello,
I have been trying to resolve this problem by myself for the last 4 days (by googling and reading forums) but nothing works so here I am.
I moved last Tuesday and everything worked fine until that day. Since I am in my new apartment, I can't connect to the Internet because of a self assigned IP address. Here is more info:
-I have a new modem since I moved (the apartment where I was living was furnished and had a modem already). However, I am using the same service provider and modem than the apartment I was subletting.
-I only have a modem (no router) and I use the Ethernet to connect.
-I am writing this message from a PC laptop which confirms that the modem is working fine and that the ethernet cable is fine, etc.
-I did many rounds of shutting down the computer, renew DHCP, unplugging the modem (from 1 minute to 10 hours) and plugging everything back.
-I called the ISP but they could not help (they just repeated the same instructions that I could find in the guide)...They have no idea how I can get rid of the self assigned IP address.
The problem is still the same, I can't get rid of the self assigned IP address (169.xxx).
Please help if you know other tricks to fix that issue...
Thanks a LOT in advance!!
Julie
Re 1) Setting up a new account won't solve the problem in itself but it will help narrow down the cause. The idea is this: the problem might be caused by something system-wide (e.g. a preference file in /Library/Preferences) or it might be caused by something that is specific to your account (e.g. a preference file in yourhome/Library/Preferences). If we knew which, we could target the troubleshooting appropriately. The easiest way to figure out which is to create a new user, log in as that user and see if the problem remains. If it does, it must be system-wide; if not, it is specific to your account.
Are you using any firewall software? If you are using Tiger's built-in firewall, how is it configured?

Can't get rid of self-assigned IP in Network Preferences on MacbookPro
My wife's Macbook Air has a normal external IP address and she can connect to our Verizon FIOS network without any issues. My Macbook Pro has a self-assigned IP address and will NOT connect at all. I'm not sure when this happened as we usually use the network from our Time Capsule that is plugged into the router and that continues to work for both of us. Both computers are running 10.7.4.
I've tried adding the DNS servers that she has listed on her computer and renewing the DHCP lease but continue to get a self-assigned IP. I also followed the suggestions here with no changes to the current problem:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20117247-263/fixing-airport-problems-in-os-x/
Any suggestions on how to fix this so that the Macbook Pro will allow the IP to come through the router instead of being self-assigned? Is there another Verizon tech support place I should be soliciting help? Thanks in advance.I've been searching for two days to figure this out. Your solution worked perfect and I was online in 1 minute! Thanks so very much.

Help! How do i get rid of self-assigned IP address? Virgin Media & Ibook
Hey all, first time here. Hoping someone more knowledgeable than me (or the people at virgin!) can help.
I have home broadband from Virgin as of last night. Self-set up the modem (Cisco), Router (D-link) and connection to my Ibook, running Tiger 10.4.11
Router and modem seem to be working fine. Green lights all round. Plus last night i had an ethernet connection runnign fine and even got a wireless connection to the Ibook. All good.
This morning, twenty minutes of internet use, then bumped off. No connection.
Checked under System Preferences, Network, Airport and got a message saying Airport has 'a self assigned IP address and cannot connect to internet.'
I assume the problem therefore is with the Ibook talking to the router (sorry, not very technical so 'talking' is best i can do).
Tried switching off the firewall. Still no joy. Airport can see my router in the list, and even has it first in preferred networks to join list. I get a five bar signal when i select it from Airport but how do i rid the computer of the 'Self-assigned IP address' ?
Please help, it's driving me mad! Apple blame Virgin, Virgin blame Router manufacturer, Router manufacturer blame Apple. It's an endless circle of **** and call-centres!!!
Cheers!
DanHi Dan, and a warm welcome to the forums!
"self-assigned IP address" simply means it's not getting an IP from the device responsible for handing out IPs, the Router in your instance.
Does Ethernet still work fine?
Go to System Preferences
Click Network
Highlight AirPort and click Configure...
Choose “By default, join: Preferred networks”
Select your access point and Remove your access point with the minus button.
Launch your keychain access in Utilities and delete your access point keychain entry.
Reboot
Go back to the “By default, join:” page and click the plus this time to add your access point. Enter the correct password, save, reboot. -
Ethernet card issue...can't get rid of self-assigned IP
Hi folks,
I am using an circa 2005 iMac G5 PPC desktop with 10.5.8. I am trying to connect the iMac to my Time Capsule via ethernet cable, but seem to be having problems with my ethernet card. When I plug into the TC ethernet port, the TC drive, does not mount and I cannot access the worldwide web.
When I go to System Preferences --> Networking, the tab on the left for ethernet connection shows a green dot, says "self-assigned IP" and the status says "connected" PRIOR TO CONNECTING THE ETHERNET CABLE TO THE TIME CAPSULE. It shows a "self-assigned" IP (DHCP selected) of 169.254.69.249, even though I know my TC is 10.0.1.1. Turning the ethernet off then back on, renewing the DHCP lease, nothing seems to be able to make this 169 IP address go away. The wireless connection to the TC is just fine... everything does what it should, I just can't get the ethernet cable connection to work.
Out of curriosity, I went to the System Profiler, and on the network tab it shows ethernet IPv4 169.254.69.249 (name en0).
I know it's not the Time Capsule, as I connected my laptop to it just fine via ethernet. The TC was IP 10.0.1.1 and it assigned 10.0.1.5 to my laptop (I have a variety of devices on my network), and I was able to transfer data and access the internet with no issues whatsoever.
I live in an 32 story apartment with a built-in ethernet network and ISP included in my rent. It's pretty nice, high speed. I connect from the wall to the Time Capsule via ethernet (circle dot connection port, so I know I have the right port), and then wirelessly out to a couple of laptops, a couple of Airport Express, and of course my desktop.
Bottom line, I think the ethernet card on iMac G5 desktop has gone bad: A few questions:
(1) Any ideas what may be wrong? Has anyone seen this self-assigned IP thing that won't go away?
(2) Any ideas how to fix it?
(3) How much will it cost? It may be time to replace my 6-year old desk top computer.
Thanks, AndyI've swapped out several cables still with no luck, and the current cable definitely has 8 pins and worked with my laptop, so I'm confident it's not the cable. Also, the Time Capsule seems to be OK, because it too worked with my laptop using the same port. The only variable that doesn't seem to be cooperating is my desktop computer.
Also, I have tried to manually assign an IP consistent with the network & appropriate subnet mask. It seems to take the IP address manually, but still I can't get internet access, and can't ping the Time Capsule in network utility either.
Finally, when I connect the desktop directly to my wall outlet, taking the router out of the equation entirely, network diagnostics shows ethernet failure...
Does that sound like a bad ethernet card?
What does it take to replace an ethernet card in an iMac G5?
Cheers, Thanks, Andy -
My iPhone is using my work email to sign in to the cloud, but my apple id and password are with my "personal" email address. I can't get rid of my "work" email address on my iPhone 4S
Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my contacts instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account. How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app. I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity). I wish I could start over!!! thanks.
iPadI could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts. I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there. When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies. You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though. Good luck! -
Can't get rid of an e-mail address on iPhone
I send an e-mail from my iPhone and it was the wrong e-mail account. Now, I can't seem to delete it from my iPhone. I have deleted it from my mail account online, I have deleted it from my contacts, I have deleted it from my outlook. I have synched and deleted and resynched. I have searched multiple emails and can't find it on my computer.. so that was good. But, it's still on my iPhone. Any ideas how to get this abarant email address OFF my iPhone?
I know I wish there was a way to cause I had to restore my phone as new. I looked all on the web not just these furoms and I could find nothing just people saying to do a restore. Hopefully something easier comes about in this 2.0 update but who knows? If you find a different way you should post it.

MacBook has self assigned ip address and cannot connect to the internet.
Is there an Apple recomended fix for this problem that works? I've looked on this board and have found several similar suggestions but as yet nothing that results with consistent connection every time I restart.
Since there is no exacting way to tell what of several suggestions offered in
these discussion boards, you may have tried, I will offer an Apple Support
article name and web address link; it may be you have tried this:
• Mac OS: How to release and renew a DHCP lease
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1920
And you can get a similar self-assigned IP address via a wireless network
or a wired local network - with a theoretical connection to the internet. If
the actual connection in software is not set correctly, the default will likely
be something very familiar since the same one appears then.
If the Network system preference panel is set and you have chosen the
mode of connecting to the internet or other connected network, then
you can set the configuration of that choice in a secondary screen. In
order to have a choice to connect via AirPort, for example, you have to
check box the item and also drag it into a position of priority (first.) Or,
if you have to connect via Ethernet to a cable/DSL modem (if not USB)
you can choose to place Ethernet in a position of priority above others.
Then, further the Network configuration's next step to set it up correctly.
The above link does cover the basics adequately, including a reset of
the cable or DSL modem. If there is a cable modem and also a wireless
base station, you may also have to reset each of them in a specific way
in order to get them to start up and work. This may be all it takes.
Good luck & happy computing! -
How do I get rid of airport self-assigned IP address????
I am trying to connect to a cisco router by going wireless. It is setup as a DHCP server, however, when I use the DHCP setting under network, airport settings I can not connect to the internet and the message on the network status says the the airport has a self-assigned IP address. How do i correct this situation. I have no problems connecting with ethernet connection using DHCP server. The problem is only when I try to go wireless.
The AirPort is self-assigning itself an IP address, because it either can't "see" the DHCP server or it can't recognize it.
Which Cisco router model do you have? Is it setup for standard 802.11g or b? Are you running wireless encryption: WEP or WPA?
Double-check your AirPort settings:
To setup AirPort for High-Speed Cable Internet connectivity:
System Preferences > Network > Show > Network Port Configurations
- Verify that an AirPort option exists. If it does not, click "New" to create one. - Verify that AirPort is "On" (checked)
- Verify that AirPort is at the top of the list. If it isn't, you can drag it to the top.
Systems Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort
AirPort tab
- By default, join: Automatic
TCP/IP tab
- Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
- Configure IPv6: Automatically or Off
Proxies tab
- Configure Proxies: Manually
- Select a proxy server to configure: <All proxies should be unchecked unless you specifically require a proxy for Internet access.>
- Exclude simple hostnames (unchecked)
- Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: <leave blank>
- Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV) (checked) -
It once worked when I removed it from Network preferences and attempted a relogin - but the problem resurfaced again and is not going away. I tried the "key chain access" solution - but my Wi-Fi doesn't show up in "Sytems" at all. Any help will be appreciated. It's OS 10.6.9 MacBook Air.
The wifi icon shows no connection with the network -- the "!" mark.
However the computer sees the network, i.e. when I search in Network Preferences the network is listed.
So: 1) the computer sees the network but 2) will not connect to the network. The reason given for refusal to connect is "self-assigned IP address".
Not to be repetitive but two other Mac laptops are connected to the same network and working perfectly. The network preferences, as shown in the "advanced" section, are the same for all machines, i.e. DHCP is selected and IPv6 is Automatic. -
Can't get rid of a TX - message keeps appearing and being processed by OSB
I have some sort of a poison message or TX I can't flush. Every 10 seconds I get a log message like the second one below, and the number of pending messages in multiple places and OSB proxy service messages processed keep climbing - all without producing any new messages on my part. I've tried deleting the default server store on the OSB managed server and the filestore for the JMS server. No luck.
When this first started happening, the error messages looked like the first one below. Something I did caused the change, I assume. However, it's the same TX ID throughout.
So, first, how can I get rid of this thing? It's driving me nuts and keeping me from closing out a POC.
Second, why is it happening? I have one suspicion - could it be because that somehow we configured mutiple domains with the same name for a distributed application? It's not my normal practice but it happened. These domains don't communicate directly, but there are domains that need to communicate with both. So I'm guessing the name ambiguity may be hurting us. Just a guess, though.
In this case, the sgosb domain's proxy service (this domain name is unique) is receiving messages from a queue resident in the pega_domain in Singapore and another proxy service is putting a message to another queue in the pega_domain in the UK. This is not in a single TX; the first proxy service forwards the message to a queue in the sgosb_domain, the second proxy service gets that message and puts it into the other pega_domain. It's an XA TX for each proxy service.
Just to make it more fun, the sgosb_domain has another proxy service reading from a different queue and forwarding it to a queue in the third pega_domain in the US.
TIA for any help or insight.
Oh yes, the OSB domain is WLS 10.3.4, while the pega_domains are WLS 10.3.2

.>Edited by: SteveElkind on Apr 13, 2011 5:50 AMTom,
Thanks! Succinct and easy to understand as ever.
Yup, that covers it - I had also just seen this in the docs after looking at atheek1's earlier response (thanks to him/her as well). It's covered almost as clearly there as you state it here (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11035_01/wls100/jta/trxcon.html).
While the ESB domains meet all of those requirements (except for cross-domain security configuration), each of the other two sets of domains (3 in each set) do not meet the naming uniqueness criteria for domain and server names; they do for JMS server names. I saw the store names in the TX identifier string as included resource, and assumed they might play a part - that's why I changed them. As you say, an unnecessary change. Oh well - it was an easy one.
My normal practice has been for unique names in the past, due to problems I had years ago with cross-domain JMS traffic in an earlier WLS version. I guess it's the wrong time to have forgotten that lesson.
Does anyone know of a quick way of changing a domain name quickly without rebuilding the domain? In the past WLST resulted in incomplete copies for me, is that still a problem? Server names are easy, just some global search-and-replace in the config.xml file (and in the management scripts, too)

My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet". If this is the root of the problem,how can I change ip address?
Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly. -
Undeletable e-mail in Mail - the latest! How can I get rid of it?
Following my recent posts about an undeletable e-mail received as undeliverable mail (I never sent it in the first place so it's obviously coming from a virused address book) I now have 13 copies of an identical e-mail which won't go away. My Mac says they're junk, but they're in the inbox and when I move them manually, they leave the inbox but don't appear in the junk. Once I return to the inbox, there they are again - with one more copy. There is no visible body, just a header stating:
"Subject: A hacker can access a public web site linked to an internal distributed file system and gain access to company and customer files."
I recently went to a PC forum for help and when I copied and pasted the header onto their forum , a green link appeared under the words "web site" taking me to a site "zimki.com" with whom I have never dealt.
How can I get rid of these self-generating e-mails?
Incidentally this message is not on my server as web mail access was used to delete it, so it only appears on the Mac.Yes I did repost, as the original problem - a huge e-mail downloading - proved not to be the case so this is a more accurate description of the problem in the hope that I can get a more accurate solution.
I used the edit/ cut solution (thank you!) which removed the e-mails from my inbox, but they're now back with a vengeance including about twenty copies of one entitled "fez" (a virus maybe?) - I now have two of every e-mail downloading; my Mac tells me this fez message is junk but now adds that "You need to take this account on-line to download this message" - except the download in progress wheel keeps going on, and on, and on....and the new messages in my inbox (I now have two or three variations on the original theme) won't go anywhere except by edit / cut.
I'm tearing my hair out!!!
I've just erased all the messages by webmail, 52 messages, so it appears my Mac is also no longer automatically erasing the messages on the server after download even though the box for this is ticked. -
Can't connect wireless due to "self-assigned IP address"
I recently switched from PC to Macbook. I cannot log on to many wifi networks I could previously access with my ThinkPad. The computer successfully finds the network and has a strong signal but will not connect. Under network status, I get a message that says something like "Your Macbook is connected to the wireless network but AirPort has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the network."
Ive tried various options but still no luck. This mostly happens in public Wi-Fi networks such as internet cafes, airports and Starbucks' T-Mobile networks. Thanks!Can you connect to any wireless location? Or does not fail only in certain places? If you can't connect anywhere, it is your problem. If you can connect in some places but not others, it is their problem.
It wouldn't surprise me if there is some new, cheap vendor of wireless access points that doesn't do the network settings correctly and only Windows machines will connect to it.
You were a ThinkPad owner, so you weren't a typical PC user anyway. Most of them use PCs only because they are cheap, cheap, cheap. Is it 3.29 cheaper than a Mac? Buy it! Those people are now making cheap wireless access turnkey solutions. I have seen people like that before. Just because there are hundreds of millions of pounds of equipment depending on the software, or people's lives, doesn't mean they know how to do networking. They may be so incompetent they don't know they are incompetent. Those types typcially would never, ever think to test their product on a Mac. -
Ethernet cord has a self assigned IP address, can this be changed?
I am trying to connect my laptop to my Xbox 360 so I can get on Xbox Live using my computers wireless as a gateway... but the ethernet cord has a self assigned IP address and won't work.. I've tried everything to change it and it still won't connect with my router. It is a cisco router.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You stand a better chance of a connection if you set the Ethernet interface to DHCP and have it be assigned an IP number by the Router ...
