Using terminal to change IP address

One emac has gone odd. It refuses it acknowledge the server and it has locked its IP address off the network. It retains the server prefs and won't let me use the sys prefs to open network. (I work in a school - obviously I lock them 80 ).
Can anyone tell me which file(s) I need to find on the client to change the IP address using terminal please. I've been looking at files in /etc where I think it should be but can't find anything.
Muchos gracias,

  • Help! I have a new iPhone 5s. My husband just lost his 4s, so I want to give him mine. Want to use same Apple ID so we both have access to itunes/apps purchases. Want to separate contacts, messages, mail, etc. I cannot change iCloud address.

    Help! I have a new iPhone 5s. My husband just lost his 4s, so I want to give him my 4s. We want to use same Apple ID so we both have access to itunes/apps purchases. Want to separate contacts, messages, mail, etc. I cannot change iCloud address on 4s iPhone. Also, when I tried to change iMessage I got a message that if I deleted my id (which seemed to be the only way to get my husband's I'd there), I would not be able to receive iMessages on any device.
    Would someone kindly tell me how to set up th 4s for my husband so that we can keep our info separate? It would be most appreciated! Thanks!!

    Hey Fagen!
    You will want to see the following article for guidance on achieving the result you wish to achieve:
    What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661
    I would just follow the instructions from this article to give your unused 4s to your spouse. Since you have already started using your 5s, you will still be receiving iMessages on that phone and will have no need to receive them on a device that has been replaced. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

  • HT204053 I need to use an existing ID (email address) on a new iPhone. It tells me "choose another ID - that one is in use," with the option to "use existing ID," however, it is an endless loop, referring me only to change my password on the existing ID.

    I need to use an existing ID (email address) on a new iPhone. It tells me "choose another ID - that one is in use," with the option to "use existing ID," however, it is an endless loop, referring me only to change my password on the existing ID.
    How do I enable my new device with an existing ID - I do not need to change the password for the millionth time!
    None of the FAQs (or the Community choices below) address new devices, they are all about APPS and iCloud stuff.

    If it is an existing iCloud ID, you should be able to just go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with it.

  • Is there a way to change the addresses used in an existing iMessage thread?

    This is kind of a multi-part question. Let me describe my scenario.
    I have many iMessage threads with other iPhone users where the "reply" addresses for one or both ends are the phone *numbers* instead of AppleID email addresses. (This could be due to a number of factors... either they had their "Start new conversations from" address set to their phone number, and/or they started a new conversation with me sending it to my phone number. How it *got* that way doesn't really matter). I want to be able to change the addresses of the conversation to AppleID's (so that I'll still get messages when I change SIM cards, among other reasons).
    With iOS 8's new ability to add/remove people from conversations, I thought I would be able to add the AppleID address and remove the phone number address, but there are two problems with that: 1) iOS 8 seems to only allow this for conversations which began as multi-person conversations, and 2) it doesn't seem to want to let you add addresses for people who are already recipients via another address (in other words, if Alice is already on the conversation via her phone number, I can't add her AppleID to the conversation). I guess I could remove the person first, and then re-add them with the other address... but I'd feel safer if I could add the next one before removing the first one.
    I know I could just tell the other person to delete our thread and start a new one, but I don't want to lose all of our dialogue and pictures (and I don't want to have to manually save it).
    So, the questions:
    Is there a way to change the address my counterparty is sending to when they make further replies to our conversation?
    Is there a way to change the address I send to when I make further replies to the conversation?
    Is there a way to change the default address to use when trying to send someone an iMessage? (What I'm after here is a way to craft my "contact" entry in people's phones so that, when they try to send a message to me and start typing my name, my preferred address comes up on top).
    As it looks like the only way to do this might be to use iOS 8's method of adding/removing recipients, is there a way of converting a two-person conversation into a multi-person one?

    I think I may have solved it, actually.  I find that if I switch the timecode to NDF in the source viewer, it seems to work.  I have tried it on three clips and they have sync'd without problems.  Hopefully this will continue to be the case.

  • My e-mail has changed, but I purchashed some songs in iTunes using my old e-mail address as my account name... so when I try to play the sonngs I bought and paid for - it keeps asking me to authorize my PC first, but I don't remember the password!

    My e-mail has changed, but I purchashed some songs in iTunes using my old e-mail address as my account name... so when I try to play the sonngs I bought and paid for - it keeps asking me to authorize my PC first, but I don't remember the password! And since the old e-mail address is no longer active, I can't even chenge the password- becasue it's sends the link to do so via e-mail!  Even when I use the "ask personal questions" option to verify and it asks me for my date of birth, I put it in and it still won't acccept.

  • Webmaster tools change of address 301 redirect failed using domain forward

    I'm having trouble with webmaster tools recognising our domain name change.
    We've recently updated website and done a name change from www.qldtshirt.com.au to www.qtco.com.au. I am using domain forwarding so qldtshirt.com.au forwards to qtco.com.au (aswell has with www.) and every thing works perfectly.
    www.qldtshirt.com.au/products/polo-shirts/cool-dry-fabric forwards to:
    http://www.qtco.com.au/products/clothing/polo-shirts/cool-dry-fabric
    We have about 4000 301 redirects setup in URL Redirects:
    /products/business-and-corporate/desk-and-office/100-organic-cotton-pencil-case to
    /products/gifts-incentives/desk-and-office/100-organic-cotton-pencil-case
    so on and so on....
    I've verified all sites in webmaster tools however when change of address from www.qldtshirt.com.au to www.qtco.com.au webmaster tools presents this error:
    "301 redirect failed. We detect that the root address of your old site (www.qldtshirt.com.au) does not yet redirect to the root address of your new site (www.qtco.com.au). For more information use the Fetch as Google tool."
    It works perfectly fine for the end user, anyone know why and how to fix please?

  • HT201342 How can I find out if an address is available. I current use bullet12@. I would like to change my address to bullet@

    How can I find out if an address is available. I current use bullet12@. I would like to change my address to bullet@

    The only way to find out is by trying to setup a new iCloud account using the address you want, or creating an email alias in your current account.
    See: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
    It's highly unlikely that such a simple address is still available after over a decade of Apple letting people sign up for @mac.com, @me.com and @icloud.com addresses.

  • Using DTW to change a sales order shipping address

    I found a template RDR12 and according to the di help file this seems to correspond to the addressextension object.
    I want to use this template to change the address information for an order. Either an existing order or a new order as it is imported.
    Can I change the address information showing in the shipping address box on the logistics tab of an existing order using this template and a csv file?
    Is it independent of existing addresses associated with a business partner?
    I tried importing a row corresponding to an existing sales order, using the sales order DocNum as the primary key. It did not work, giving the error, Can not find this object in B1 Application. I verified that the order existed.
    Can anyone point me to an example or give me information regarding how to use this template?
    Is what I want to do possible?
    Thanks,

  • Change vendor address using bapi

    Hi all,
    How to change vendor address using bapi.
    The address,and vendornumber coming from XL file.
    Based on the vendor number I want to change the address.
    Please give me the example.
    regards,
    rakesh.

    Hi Vijay,
    Please help me in the following.
    As Vendor/Customer Master dont have all the address fields ( like Street4-5), we use FM BAPI_ADDRESSORG_SAVEREPLICA to overcome this problem.
    In my case i have created one Custom load program to upload address data using
    BAPI_ADDRESSORG_SAVEREPLICA and then LSMW project to upload rest of the data.
    In this case when i upload rest of the data by LSMW using BI standard program ( having NODATA indicator "/" in my source file for the fields already uploaded using BAPI above) , address data which uploaded through FM should get populate automatically (by concept of Central Address management) but in my case <b>for some of the Account Group it is not getting populated,</b> please suggest.
    regards

    hey,i forgot my login password,so i changed the password by using terminal command(reset password).now i have new user name with new password,
    but i can't find  my data which i have saved on mac.the storage is showing data used and free space on the disk

    How did you change your user name?
    resetpassword wouldn't have done it. If you managed to create a new user, then your data is still in the old account.

  • Mass filename changes using terminal? How?

    Hello,
    I recently put a Linksys NAS on my network. Unfortunately, the EXT3 format used on the disks does not like filenames with special characters such as "/" or "?". So I cannot copy files from my PowerBook to the NAS with these characters in their names.
    A search of my hard drive shows 800+ files with these forbidden characters.
    Is there a way to use terminal (or any aspect of OS X) to do a mass change of these characters to a more acceptable character (i.e. changing all instances of "/" to "-")?
    Thanks for the help.

    tcsh: Invalid null commandAh, you're using tcsh. Bad news! I'm sure it could be made to work, but I've switched to bash because it is better for this sort of stuff. Gary will tell you to switch to zsh, but for now bash will do. I just tried the command as posted and tcsh complained loudly!
    First point: often when you try to copy/paste from a browser window, you get an extra space appended to the line. It often doesn't matter, but it could here (may explain the "tcsh: Invalid null command" message). So copy the commands into a TextEdit document, which you have changed to Plain Text from the Format menu. Then be sure not to include any trailing space.
    Second point, we'll scrap the use of sudo since it is only your Home directory that you are interested in.
    Third point: as I said, we'll use bash. The prompt will change to a '$' instead of a '%'. When you've finished, you can return to tcsh with a plain exit command.
    So, copy and paste the following into the Terminal window, one line at a time, with a return after each line:
    <pre>bash
    find -d ~/Documents \( -name "?" -o -name ":" \) -exec echo 'mv "{}" `echo "{}" |
    sed -e "s^\?^_^g" -e "s^:^-^g" ` ' \; | sh</pre>This should work—it did for me!
    Note:
    it returned a > prompt with nothing else on the line.It will do this after the second line above—it is an invitation to complete the command

    You are trying to find a loophole to circumvent a basic rule that prohibits the transfer of purchased content from one Apple ID to another.
    Content tied to an Apple ID are bound to that Apple ID forever. You can not merge or trade accounts. Well, not (officially) anyway...
