Problem with IP address

I have an odd problem that has recently cropped up. I'm using a LinkSys BEFW11S4 wireless router connected by Ethernet to my MDD 1.25 GHz dual Power Mac (running 10.4.7). We currently have three computers on our network, mine (wired), and a PowerBook (10.4.7) and a 400 MHz iMac (10.4.6), both wireless. All three machines get their IP addresses by DHCP. When the iMac and my Power Mac are active, there is no problem. But when my daughter logs on from her PowerBook and subsequently either 1) restarts or 2) disconnects and then reconnects, not only does she get the "self-assigned address" message with an address beginning with 169, but the router stops functioning and has to be rebooted to get it working again. Configuring her computer to have a static IP address does not seem to work.
Has anyone out there had a similar problem and found a solution for it?

I have a very similar problem since I upgraded to 10.4.7. I have an Intel MacBook Pro and I use both OS/X and Windows XP on my machine. I am connected via airport to a Livebox wireless ADSL router (I am located in France). Whenever I boot up my machine in OS/X now, I have to turn off the airport, wait a few seconds, and then turn it back on, in order to get a DHCP assigned address from the router. The airport, on booting connects to the wireless network and shows a full signal, but it cannot connect to the internet and shows a "self-assigned address" when I check on the interface status. When I boot into Windows it does immediately come up with a DHCP assigned ip address (no, this is not an endorsement for Windows; merely pointing out that the problem is with OS/X and not my wireless router). This was not occurring prior to this update (I was on 10.4.6). My machine is "plain vanilla", except for the Windows partition.

  • I am living in moscow, but i have a mastercard in vietnam. I changed my location in itunes from Russia into Vietnam. But when I change my billing info, and write my card's informations. It said I have problems with the address. I typed my address in VN.

    I am living in moscow, but i have a mastercard in vietnam. I changed my location in itunes from Russia into Vietnam. But when I change my billing info, and write my card's informations. It said I have problems with the address. I typed my address in VN. What should I do now ????

    To answer the second question first, the owners of the music (and that is not Apple) decide where their music can be sold. If they decide (for whatever reason) not to sell their music in a particular country, they will not let a music retailer (that is Apple this time) sell it in that country. So the "system" is beyond Apple's control.
    As for your first post; (if I understand you correctly), the iTunes Store knows that you are in Russia, so using a credit card registered in Vietnam is simply going to look like you're trying to get round the system.
    The credit card is tied to an address, and therefore to a country. Simply using a different country's address is not going to work.
    By the way, this is a world-wide situation. It's not a matter of having to use a Russian card, whatever card you use has to be registered at an address in Russia.
    Use the support link in the iTunes Store to contact Apple and see if you can straighten out whether you can buy songs, where ever you are and with whichever card you have.

  • Strange Problem with Mail & Address Book

    Hi,
    I'm having a strange problem with Mail & Address Book.
    When I go to compose a new message from Mail and hit the Address button (to show my email addresses), it won't launch the contacts window!
    I get this log from console;
    2007-10-15 22:55:59.079 Mail[410] * -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index (0) beyond bounds (0)
    If I try to launch the Address Book from my Applications folder, it won't open, and it gives me this log from console;

    I tried deleting the preferences, re-installing Address Book, also tried creating a new user, again no luck!
    Can somebody help!!!
    Please?!

    Hi dp13.
    Do you have any Address Book plug-ins or system utilities that could interfere with Address Book? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/
    ~/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/
    To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
    ls -1 /Library/Address\ Book\ Plug-Ins ~/Library/Address\ Book\ Plug-Ins
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.
    <hr>
    Did you also reinstall the appropriate Combo Update after reinstalling Address Book?
    Quit all the applications and verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with the computer:
    About the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update
    Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for PowerPC
    Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update for Intel
    After installing the Combo Update, the computer may restart twice and the first restart may take several minutes. This is normal.
    Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
    Troubleshooting installation and software updates
    Installing software updates
    Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk and back up before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

  • Mail has problem with auto address.

    My mail recently has had a problem with auto addressing. Sometimes it fills in the address, at other times it will not. I have checked mail preferences often...making sure auto-address is on. I CAN use the address book to click on an address when auto addressing doesn't work. Mail is also quirky about quitting and sometimes preferences have to be re-edited to send. Basically, it is behaving badly. What to do? Thanks ACE

  • Problem with file address

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my java program I wrote:
    On my computer it works fine, because the file I use in the code has an absolute address to an specific place on my hard drive:
    public static final File kombinace = new File("D:\\Documents\\NetBeansProjects\\spalicky\\src\\spalicky\\kombinace.txt");but I need to send the source files to another person ( my teacher ) and I need the code to work on his computer too...
    do you have any idea how to edit the code to fix this problem???
    I thought maybe be the relative address to the file or some including of the file like a resource might work but I dont not how to do this or if its even possible ..
    thank for every reply

    ondra wrote:
    First at all, thanks a lot for your reply :) ,
    It is read-only file ...
    So you meant write the code like this ?
    InputStream stream = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/kombinace.txt");
    Yes, somewhere in your code when you need to read it you do something like the above, assuming kombinace.txt lives in one of your classpath roots. For example, if your code and that file are jarred up, then the above code would work if the file were in the root of the jar.
    public static final File kombinace = new File(stream);No. Get rid of this - don't deal with it as a File anymore.

  • Strange problem with nested address book groups

    I have a strange problem with iSync. I have created a group On-the-Go in my Address Book that I'm syncing with my phone (Motorola v600). The group consists of three other groups. Let's call them A, B and C.
    The problem is that only group C gets synchronized. Contacts from groups A and B disappear from the phone. Strangely, if I select A or B to sync in iSync - they get synchronized just fine. Also, group C, in turn, contains other nested groups, but that does not seem to be a problem.
    I played with group names, tried to recreate group A to no avail.
    For now, I have added all contacts from A and B to On-the-Go as a workaround, but
    it looks like a bug to me.

  • Problem with vendor address number in LFA1/ADRC

    Hi,
    We've had a really strange problem occur and we can't find out how it happened.  We have two vendors who have somehow started to share the same address number in ADRC (field LFA1-ADRNR contains the same value for both vendors).  Both vendors are old and have been on our system for a few years.
    We use SRM but I'm told the master data is maintained in R/3 4.7 (although it is possible to maintain it in SRM, we don't use that process).
    Can anyone suggest how this could have happened, and moreover, how we can change the address number on one of the vendors to point elsewhere.  We can't find any transaction and LFA1 isn't maintainable in SE16. 
    Really appreciate any help that anyone can offer!
    Regards,
    Angela

    Our addresses should be unique.  I've downloaded table LFA1 and we only have two vendors which share the same adress number - and this is an error.
    The problem with sharing the address number is if we try to change the address for vendor 1, then the same change applies to vendor 2.  This is not correct.
    Is it possible that two vendors have somehow become linked like parent and child?  Can anyone explain how this could have happened and how we can undo it?
    Thanks,
    Angela.

  • Problems with the address book server! Really need some help here!

    Hello everyone!
    for about some time now, we're having some troubbles with the address book server located on our Mac Pro Server running SL Server. The connected clients somehow show multiple entries of groups, contacts and everything else address book can show. Sometimes you see one group or contact about 20-30 times or even more.
    How can the addressbook server on SL Server be configured that these faults won't show up again. With this present, using address book server is useless. As far as my knowledge goes, I've tried everything I can. I deleted the address book account set up on each client, readded it, but no help. I stopped the address book server on the Mac pro, but no help either.
    For your further information: we're connecting 14 clients. Moste of the rum Lion, three run ML and several iDevices connect via WiFi.
    Please help me, as this really is frustrating!
    Looking forward for your help.
    Regards,
    Moritz

  • Notes syncing problem with @me address vs @mac address

    Notes stopped syncing (on my mavericks macbook). I turned it off and on again in prefs. When it restarted it used my username@me address instead of my username@mac address. It was previously using my @mac address, which is my Mac ID. I cannot figure out how to get the @me out of there.

    I also have this problem.  A couple of days ago, the Notes App on my Macbook Pro (OSX Mavericks) stopped syncing to my icloud. My iphone and ipad don't have this problem.  I have done all the suggested actions (ie. unticking "notes" then ticking again; signing out of my icloud account then signing back in, etc), it then removed my icloud address on the Notes App and replaced it with [email protected]; but still no syncing.  It just keeps showing "UPDATING" on the status bar.  I can look at my icloud notes on the browser or my iphone but its just inconvenient.
    Any other suggestions?

  • Problems with Advanced Address Book Search

    Recently was running TB 24.2 under Ubuntu 12.4. All ran great, except could not search the Notes field in my address book. Got help from this forum and installed MoreFunctionsForAddressBook. This made the Notes field available for searching in the Quick Search window and in the Advanced Address Book Search dialog box (Edit > Search Addresses). Problem solved!
    Now have upgraded to TB 31.2.0. Quick Search window still works fine, including searching the Notes field. However, the Notes field is no longer listed in the Advanced Address Book Search, AND the Advanced Address Book Search does not work at all. I get zero results for any search on any field.
    Is the Advanced Address Book Search broken in TB 31.2.0? If not, any ideas on what I might have set up wrong to keep it from functioning? Any diagnostic I could run?
    Also, does MoreFunctionsForAddressBook no longer add fields to the Advanced search?
    I have worked on this for hours, with no luck. Suggestions are welcomed.

    Toad-Hall ---- Thanks very much!!! I completely missed the new version of the plug-in. I upgraded TB to v 31 and wasn't bright enough to think about the add-on compatibility.
    With MoreFunctions 0.7.1, my Advanced Search (Edit > Search Addresses) now has a lengthy list of search-field choices, including the Notes field. This is a life saver for me, since that's where all my keywords are.
    You really bailed me out on this one! Many thanks.

  • Problem with email address management page (not re...

    A couple of weeks ago I was moved to BT mail and I linked my BT ID to my main email address, as instructed. On the email management page, I linked six other email addresses, which I had previously had in BT Yahoo, using the ‘add to BT ID’ function. However, my main email address, which was the one I initially linked, also appears on the email management page, but with the ‘add to BT ID’ function still appearing. When I click on this, I keep getting the message: ‘Sorry, we haven't been able to claim that email address due to an error. Please try again later.’ This means that I am unable to have my main email address as my favourite, so when I log in, it always defaults to another one of my addresses. How do I fix this problem?

  • Problem with email address recognition

    I've spent most of the day searching this forum for an answer but I'm not finding it, so I'm hoping someone might be able to help.
    I've imported a comma-separated file (of 1000+ email addresses) from Filemaker Pro 9 into my Address Book. I'm now trying to send an email to all of them.
    I create an email in Apple Mail, click on Address Book, select the group, all the e-mail addresses appear in the BCC field, but when I try to send I immediately get a message that says: [email protected] does not appear to be a valid email address. I check the address, nothing's wrong. I delete it from the list and I get the same message for the next address. If I tell it to send anyway, the entire list kicks back as invalid.
    I don't know what to do now. What I see as the address is correct but for some reason the program is not recognizing it. Any thoughts on what I can do to get this email sent? Thanks!

    Two suggestions.
    1. What you see is not always what you get! If any of the imported addresses is correct, there may be unprintable characters in the FM file for those address causing this warning. Double check what FM is sending and/or how they are entered in the database.
    2. Mail maintains a list of addresses you have used. Even if you correct any problems in the FM file (assuming there are any), Mail may be trying to use the incorrect address in its own list.
    First, make sure the "Message Viewer" is the front-most window. Now check the Mail address list by using "Window->Previous Recipients" in the menu bar. If you find duplicates, you may need to delete both and start over with that recipient, assuming you can determine the correct address. I found it possible to manually type in an address, exactly the way it appeared but have it work because the one in the list was not showing exactly how or what was incorrect. Hope that works for you and you don't have too many addresses to correct!

  • Problems with Apple Address Book Sync after upgrading BBDesktop s/w. Also, no more Rogers support - abandoned customer

    I just upgraded my BB Desktop Software but now have a sync error - details show that over 800 entries need to be synced.
    When I look at 'details', the 'before' shows a phone number field called "Main Fax" the 'after' shows a phone number field called "Other", with the same phone number targeted.
    There are a handful of other syncs such as address blank in 'before' and completed in 'after.  I found these by just scrolling down the list with my down arrow and scanning the 'before' entries as they flew by. 
    There seems to be no way for me to manually choose which of the 'before' and 'after' I'd like to have.
    Worst of all, I called Rogers for sync support, as I have done for years.  Guess what? They've stopped supporting anything but their actual network connections, but didn't bother to tell their customers.  There I was in a 'user down' situation, late for an appointment (missed it totally thanks to this), and they were telling me the most they can do is send an e-mail. or have me *pay* for the support that used to be free, selling me a 'premium support' package. Yikes!
    So I clicked 'sync later' on the address book, and am looking for help before I try another sync tomorrow.
    For example, ideas to help me manually over-ride the data field mapping from 'Main Fax' to 'Fax' in Blackberry Desktop Software.
    Anyone have any ideas?  Much appreciated!
    I live in Canada, by the way, so if you are a Rogers customer in Canada, take note of their change in support.
