I lost my internet connection and the IP address is in correct. How do I fix it and change the IP address

I lost my internet connection. This is the second time and really FRUSTRATED. The first time I had to call geeksquad and spent $100. I don't want to call them again. I'm getting the IP address as 169....It should be 192..How do I fix thos problem. It seems many people are experiencing the same problem. It's quite disturbing.
Please help

Hi there Julia,
Ahh The iPhone isn't "stupid" it's been called "stupid" because you are frustrated at the situation , but try
Load iTunes. Backup your phone. Make sure it is backed up !! Run restore. This will get rid of the error! And please what ever you do , do not skip the back up!
Thanks,

    Change the email on the old account to another new, current email address.
    An email address can only be linked to one Apple ID.
    It is possible to have content from multiple Apple ID's on a single iDevice.

    Also, the Calendar is loading very very slowly, and sometimes it quits and gives me the same error message as above.

  • TS3092 my wireless apple mouse works to move the arrow but will not scroll. how can I fix this?

    my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

    Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
    If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning.  Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.

  • Ipod duplicates albums. All the same artist, same everything. How can I fix this?

    Ipod duplicates albums. All the same artist, same everything. How can I fix this?
    All the details are the same. In my itunes library it shows as ONE whole album. When I import it to my ipod classic 160 gb it duplicates it about 4 times; it's quite irritating. It does that for 2 albums in particular and I have no idea why. Please help! Thank you.

    Hi alondres,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Use the information in the following article to review the information in the iTunes database for the artist / albums you are having issues with.  Make sure the information you want is exactly the same in the artist and album fields.
    Playing and managing content in iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1399#3
    Editing Info
    Each audio or video file in iTunes has several settings and tags that can be easily modified. These options can be accessed by selecting any file in the iTunes browser windows and selecting "Get Info" from the File menu. You can add song lyrics, artwork and set special playback options. The "Info" tab lets you edit information about the file including artist and album info.
    Once you have updated the information, close the iTunes application on the computer.  Then reopen and resync to your iPod.
    Cheers,
    - Judy

  • The screen goes out of sync, how can I fix this?

    when I start the server, the screen goes out of sync, how can I fix this?. The server has no video card.

    What do you mean by 'out of sync'?
    Try running the 'kickstart' using Send UNIX Command or while logged in to that server (ssh etc):
    sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/k ickstart -restart -agent -menu -console
    You might also want to trash /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist from the server..

  • While downloading app update on ipad lost internet connection and now the updates are not updating. How do I fix this?

    While downloading a common application update, I lost my internet connection and now the updates are not updating. How do I fix this?

    Try this:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • Then restart & see if you can update.

  • If I leave the laptop alone for 15 minutes, when I come back I have lost my internet connection

    I have been using firefox for about two months now without any problems. With in the past two weeks, if I leave the laptop to do something else, when I return to the laptop and go to check my E-Mail etc. I lost my internet connection. I check and says I have an excellent wireless connection but I am forced to re-boot and then I'm back on. "WHY"

    What kind of documents? Office? iWork? Text Edit? What version?
    What settings do you have in regards to power saver and/or screen saver?
    For these kinds of system glitches I always recommend installing and running Onyx 'Automation'. If that does not work you should reinstall the offending software, if possible.

    It's possible that the message you got was to update the AirPort Express Base Station's (AX) firmware...and that something might have gone wrong during the upgrade.
    Let's start by performing a "factory default" reset on the AX to get it back to it's original "out-of-the-box" condition.
    Then, let's set it up to work with your cable modem...
    AirPort Express Base Station Setup (AX) w/High-Speed Cable Modem
    Modem/Router Power ReCycling (optional)
    - Power-off the Cable modem, AX, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
    - Power-on the Cable modem; Wait at least 30 minutes.
    - Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    - Power-on the computer(s)
    Setup the AX
    With the network components powered down, set up the AX, using the AirPort Admin Utility, either connect to the AX's wireless network or connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
    AirPort tab
    - Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    - AirPort Network Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    - Create a closed network (unchecked)
    - Wireless Security: Not enabled
    - Channel: Automatic
    - Mode: 802.11b/g Compatible
    Internet tab
    - Connect Using: Ethernet
    - Configure: Using DHCP
    - WAN Ethernet Port: Automatic
    Network tab
    - Distribute IP addresses (checked)
    - Share a single IP address (using DHCP & NAT) (enabled)
    Do not, at this point, set up any security (i.e., WEP/WPA encryption, closed network, etc.) to first make sure the AX is operating properly. Try to access the Internet wirelessly with your MacBook. If you're successful, go ahead and add any security features you wish.
