Can't set up manual IP address

I want my Mac to have a fixed IP address for a number of reasons. Up to now I've been using the automatic DHCP which gives a new IP address each time.
I've gone into the network system preferences and to built in ethernet and changed the setting from "Using DHCP" to "Using DHCP with manual address"
put in the same IP address and click apply
I was immediately disconnected from the internet. I went back to Using DHCP and click apply and I'm connected again, still with the same IP. So I tried fully Manual and put in same IP but also the same Subnet Mask and Router.
Again I am immediately disconnected from the internet. Go back to auto DHCP and I'm connected again immediately even though all settings are the same.
What's going on? I've tried this on 2 different days with two different IP addresses and the same thing happens.
I even changed the IP address and got the same result.

Time and date doesn't update nor can I set it manually, any help?

I just purchased a apple TV, it is connected via a ethernet, IP address detected however, it won't update the time nor date I can't do it manually any help?

Doesn't any bring up the fact that Apple has so many customers with problems that the refuse to help unless you pay them cash? They update you and screw you over and then offer no useful troubleshooting scenarioius to help their millions of customers. It is because they want millions of our dollars. I hate Apple.

Can we set the Manual Price Entry check in a pricelist ?

Hi,
When using SBO's own import tool to update a pricelist based on another pricelist, I noticed that in those cases where the imported price happens to be the same as base price x factor, the manual price entry check box does not get set.
So I figured that I would quickly build my own pricelist update tool, using the DI_API, but I can't seem to find any documentation or examples about setting the Manual Price Entry.
Is it even possible? If so can anyone tell me where to look? If not, can someone explain to me why not?
Regards,
Johan

Hi Gordon,
Thanks for your reply. Let me try to explain the challenge (problems do not exist, right?).
This functionality is not actually original, "in the good old days" the Manual Price Entry check would always get set whenever you typed in a price, or updated it by import. Current behaviour appears to be since version 2007.
Now you are right, that at least at first glance it is only logical that the system behaves as it does now. However, consider our scenario:
I show all my active items (about 6000) with a base price, in an internet store for registered B2B customers. Each customer has been offered specific prices for tailored selections of products (about 100 - 200). These specific prices are not dynamic. So I create a pricelist per customer, and base it on our base pricelist. Then I import the selection into the new pricelist with the agreed prices.
Prices in the base pricelist may of course fluctuate on a daily basis, but the prices of the selected items should remain the same. Setting the Manual Price Entry check accomplishes this.
Imagine my surprise and dismay when I discovered that this method all of a sudden no longer worked, and now I am expected to manually scroll and click my way through each pricelist (about 100, and growing, which contain all 12000 items), and compare it to the relevant selection list, or alternatively I need to import my active items into each separate customer's Special Prices list, and maintain them all whenever an item is dropped or added to the active items. Not to mention that that would pretty much double the size of our database (which is already more than 60 GB).
Hence my question.
Kind regards,
Johan

How do i set manual ip addresses for connect to wifi network which had setted with manually ip addresses?

i had set ip addresses for my home wifi network manually,and now i want to connect my iPhone5 to this network.the phone can't connect.what i have to do?after changing the wifi network setting (channels and another things)i cant connect even.i want to reslove this problem.would you help me?!

Just thought I would bump this up in the conversation. Doing a further search I came across this discussion which is similar: Connecting to a wireless network via applescript?
However, I tried to build the Automator application as discussed and cannot get it to work. Very much a novice at Applescript and Shell Script but have created customized Automator services before. All I get now is "Shell Script command encountered an error". No more detail. I copied and pasted the script as shown in the email thread. Is there any other line or command I need to place in front of it?
Thanks again for any help

Can You set a Default Email Address when sending Emails

I have multiple email accounts set up. When I compose a new message, it always uses the send address of the message that is selected in the open window. Is there anyway to set a particular address as default or better yet don't pick an address and force me to select one from the pull down list?
Doug Eaton

Hello Doug.
Copied from Setting the account your email is sent from.
If you have set up multiple accounts in Mail, when you create a new message, the account the message is sent from is the one associated with the currently selected mailbox. If the current mailbox is listed in the On My Mac section of the mailbox list and is not associated with any particular account, then your message is sent from the first account listed in the Accounts pane of Mail Preferences.
You can select a different account to use to send the mail.
To send a message from a different account, choose the account from the Account pop-up menu when you're composing the message.
To change the order in which accounts are listed in the mailbox list, drag the account names into the order you want. You can also rearrange the account order in the Accounts pane of Mail Preferences.
Tiger Mail includes a default email account selection when selecting New to compose a new message regardless which mailbox is currently selected.

Can't set to manual mode if it's not listed in iTunes!

Hi,
I'm struggling with this infuriating "feature" where iPods can only be synced with one computer to ensure everything being up-to-date.
I just bought a new computer and want to copy new music to my iPod shuffle (2nd gen).
I don't need auto-syncing, I just want to copy music one-by-one, and I keep getting the Erase and Sync option when I connect the iPod. I've read other threads and it sounds like manual mode is what I need, but once I hit cancel at the Erase and Sync box the iPod doesn't appear in iTunes anywhere for me to change to manual mode! How can I get iTunes to recognize the iPod so I can set it to manual?
The iPod still works fine and I can see the files in My Computer, browse the iPod_Control directory, etc. So I don't think the iPod is broken in any way.
Also I tried editing the preferences in iTunes (I'm on v8 on Windows Vista) to stop auto-syncing with iPods and iPhones (that's an option somewhere in preferences) but it didn't help.
Any ideas!?
Thanks,
Raphi

An iPod shuffle cannot contain music from more than one computer at once; the manual mode referred to is present on other iPod models, but isn't available on the iPod shuffle.

How can I set up and email address for my grandson without giving him general access to the internet? email only

My grandson's school needs him to have his own email address. For some reason, his is not able to use my address. I do not want him to have general access to the internet. His older brother caused my computer to be infected with a virus in a very short time. It took three weeks and one hundred dollars to get the use of my computer back.
I do not want him to have access to the internet, but his school wants him to have an email address to communicate with him about school work. I am concerned that once he has an email address, someone (not the school) will send him a web site address in a message and he will be able to just click on it to get into the internet.

You can use an email program (e.g. Outlook Express or Windows Live or Thunderbird) and disable HTML for that email (text only mode) to access the email account. You can create a new email account if your your ISP supports it or use a online service that allows POP3 access with an email program (most popular services allow that).

How can I set my default email address when sending new messages

I have 2 accounts in my Mail Preferences, hotmail and gmail. I have tried to set it so when I send a message to a new recipient it is my gmail one that is used as default. However, it is thehotmail account that is always ticked first.
I would like to set my mail preferences so the gmail is my default first choice in sending new messages and is ticked as my default email address.

How can I set my default email address for meeting invitations?

As I was adding a friend's and my lunch appointment in my calendar, I noticed an option to invite attendee. So I invited her and she accepted successfully. My question is that when I invited her, the invitation came from an alternate yahoo email address that I don't use often. I tried to switch the invitation to show it coming from my primary gmail address but couldn't figure out how to do it.
Any advice? Thanks!

Can't set-up scan to email wizard

I have an HP Officejet Pro 8500A910 and trying to set-up the scan to email wizard. The error message I get is
"Cannot connect the server. Go back and correct server name and address". I don't know where and what
the server name and address is and should be. Can you help?

Hi mulan200032,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you have received a connection error message when trying to enable the scan to email feature of your Officejet 8500A A910 printer.
I am presuming that you have connected the printer to your wireless network. There are several steps I would like you to try please.
Please turn off your printer.
Please turn off your router. If your router doesn’t have an on/off switch, please unplug the power cord from the router.
After waiting a full 60 seconds please turn on your router (or plug it back in).
After the router has completed its startup routine please turn on your printer.
After the printer has completed its startup routine, please test the scan to email feature. If it works there no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
Please set a manual IP address and manual DNS servers for the printer. I have included a link to another post with the steps, including screen shots on how to do this. Don’t worry that the screen shots show a Officejet 8600 printer, the steps are the same.
Please test the scan to email feature. If it works there is no need to continue with any further trouble shooting steps.
Please call HP’s Cloud Services at 1-855-785-2777 if you live in the USA/Canada region. If you live outside the USA/Canada region please click here to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.

How can I set the workgroup templates file location in Office 2013 to point at a folder stored on Sharepoint (2010/2013)?

Hi All,
Been doing quite a bit of research on this but drawn nothing but blanks or alternative suggestions, none of which are viable.
So the outline of the issue:
Deploying Office 2013 suite to organisation and wanting to have custom templates available for users to choose from, but want those templates to be centrally stored and managed on a SharePoint site.
In Word 2013, for example, when you create a new document, you are presented with a page to choose from 'Featured' templates (or blank document)
So, if you wanted to have custom corporate templates, you could modify the file location for work group templates, thus creating a Custom Office Templates folder locally on your PC.
Great. This means when you select 'New' in Word 2013 you can pick from the 'Featured' templates, or the 'Personal' templates area.
However, I have a collection of test corporate templates (for Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc). These are stored on a SharePoint site internally.
If I try to modify the work group templates location in Word 2013 to point towards my SharePoint site (or any HTTP address for that matter) it won't work.
I know that I could point it towards a Network Share location instead, but I don't want to do that.
Is there any way of getting it to point towards a SharePoint site, any way of modifying it? Or perhaps an even better solution that I could use?
Any help, thoughts or ideas would be massively appreciated! And forgive me if any of my logic is off, but it does seem like this should be a straight forward thing to do given that Office and SharePoint are both developed by Microsoft and you
would like to think they would inherently have better links!
NOTE: Going to Office 365 is also not an option either!
Eagerly awaiting an answer from someone incredibly clever!

Hi Tony,
Thanks for your response but this is not what I was looking for.
Those articles relate to setting a default template in a SharePoint document or form library.
I will try to be more concise.
What I want is:
(1) For users to be able to load MS Word 2013 on their laptops/desktops (connected to corporate Wireless/LAN)
(2) Once they have opened MS Word 2013, I want them to be able to choose a template from the welcome screen. (There are MS Word Defaults like 'Blank Document' or 'Cover Letter' etc)
I want to add a second tab which is called 'Personal' or 'Corporate'.
(3) MS Word 2013 allows you to create custom WORD templates and save them locally on your machine (either in the default location for templates, or a user-specified custom location (e.g. My Documents, Desktop etc).
(4) In advanced settings, there is an option to modify file locations. This is where you can point MS Word 2013 towards the folder (locally) that contains the personal templates that you have designed which you want to use.
(5) QUESTION: Is there a way to have lots of corporate WORD templates (perhaps one for Marketing, Sales, Procurement, Project etc) - Basically LOTS of different templates all stored in one location on SHAREPOINT, or in a SharePoint document
library. THEN... once those templates (documents) are stored on SharePoint,
IS THERE A WAY to go back into the advanced settings within MS WORD 2013 and modify the file location for templates so that it points towards the SharePoint document library?
I want all the templates to open in MS Word 2013, not within a browser, and I don't want users to have to go to SharePoint to find a template, I want it to be integrated into their local MS Word 2013 so they can choose a corporate template the moment they
load up MS Word 2013.
When I have tried to modify the custom file location for templates, I can only set it to an address locally on my machine, or a network address (mapped network drive).
However, I do not want the templates to be stored on a shared network folder, I want them to be in a SharePoint Document Library.
The issue I have found is that I cannot enter a SharePoint Library URL as my file location, nor can I enter any HTTP address.
IS THERE A WAY AROUND THIS?

How to set a rescue email address without answering security questions?

As it turns out i don't have any rescue email address and forgot my security questions! so how can I know what was my answers to those questions?! or how can I set a rescue email address when I couldn't go to the "password and security" section?

You won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions, you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5699
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201356
Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
