OS X :: Setting Up Internet - Cannot Find IP Address
Apr 16, 2010
I just found an old mac in my room, I think it is a power mac g4, it is running OS X 10.3. I am trying to get it connected to the internet using a cable straight from it to my router (netcomm), the same way i do with my other mac. However, no matter how many different variations i use of my various settings, it wont connect. I have come down to needing a subnet mask, IP address, and router address.
I am almost certain i have the subnet mask and router addie correct, but there seems to be no way for me to find the g4's IP. I have been in system preferences, but all the 'IP' bits are just blank and unclickable. I don't know if it makes a difference, but the G4 was connected to the internet in the past before we upgraded, so it should have an IP somewhere, right?

I'm staying at a hotel for an extended period and they said if I gave them my wireless mac address and they could allow me to not have to login every time I opened Safari.

I've an Internet key (settings requested: phone number/web address/primary DNS): I put only the first 2 because with the third one (needed to speed up the connection) it doesn't works. I put the primary DNS requested on MACUSBmodem (DNS page, on the left).

I cleared off my MacBook for sale on craigslist. I have a fresh install of Leopard on there now. However, I want to update all the applications and the system. In order to do that, I have to set up the mac. I don't want to put in my address or number. Any way to bypass this?

Anyone know how I can set a permanent Reply To header for all my mail accounts in Mail? I've found a couple scripts by searching the net, but all old stuff and nothing that works. Anyone care to take a crack at it? Applecare's official stance is that you need to type it in manually for every message. There has to be some way around this.

I am wondering how, if possible, to set the default "reply-to" address on Apple Mail. I know I can manually add it to each message I compose, but that's rather cumbersome. I'd like to be able to configure Mail so every message I send out will automatically use the same "reply-to" mail address. Is it possible?

Setting up the bluetooth so that I can use my mobile phone to access the internet on my mac. I have an LG phone but there isn't an LG option in the dropdown bar, does LG perhaps have another name that's in the list. Also what do I put in the username, password and phone number sections? I have tried to do it but it has failed.

I can't seem to connect to the internet using my ethernet cable. I messed around with some of the ethernet settings but now forgot what was the default one. The strange thing is, when I go into windows mode, the ethernet cable works. its just in Mac OS mode it doesn't.

Since I have been using Safari, it's windows open to the maximum size of the screen. Recently it has begun to open in at a small size. Is there anyway to save how large the window is when the program is launched, or a new window is opened?

I recently got a new time capsule but I have difficulties setting up the internet connection. The time capsule is connected to our WAN using a cable in my office. The computers in our organization are authenticated using their MAC address. So, I have to add the MAC address of the time capsule to make it connected to the internet. I want to connect the TC to our WAN using a cable, then I want to connect my MacBook using a wireless connection to the TC.
When I config the TC using the NAT mode (Share a public IP address), I can use the internet but I get a double NAT error and TC's LED is yellow. When I config the TC using the Bridge Mode, the led goes green. Anyway, if I connect my MacBook using wireless I cannot reach the internet. I get no error in this case so I don't know what is happening inside the TC. Interestingly, if I connect the MacBook to the TC using an ethernet cable, it works perfectly! I have added all the MAC addresses of the wired and wireless interfaces to the list of my computers.

I have just unpacked my new macbook air and after initially thinking I would put windows 7 on it, have decided to have a bash with the mac operating system first to see if I can get used to it. I have always used pc's so this is a big culture shock. I am 54 years old but consider myself quite techy minded, more so that my technophobe kids who always come to me when they have a problem. However I'm not sure you can teach an old dog new tricks, so to speak. I know it is frowned upon to compare with windows, and, as I said previously, I do not want my mac to be a pc, but might, at some points, refer to windows, so please be patient with me as that is all I know. I am going to trawl through all the guides at the top of the page as I'm sure they will be very informative.
I will be getting office for mac as learning a new OS is enough for me to tackle right now, and my air only has usb, no sd or dvd. I have a Buffalo linkstation with all my files etc., on and want to use it frequently for file transfer. I have downloaded NASnavigator and used 'finder' to look for it. (I am assuming 'finder' is similar to windows explorer, which is where the linkstation shows on my pc.) Should the linkstation show up automatically in the left hand menu, or do I need to click on something? Would it be under 'devices' or 'places'? (It is under neither at the mo.) I have searched and found info suggesting solutions for finding the linkstation using its IP address, but before doing this want to make sure I'm looking in the right place first.

When both computers Beige G4 (os 9,2,2) and an eMac (os x Tiger) are connected to the internet with wire cables, there's no problem. I can hook up to the eMac from my Beige G4 (os 9.2.2)using Chooser/Appletalk/and inputing the IP address of the eMac (from Network preferences); which lets me connect.
When I'm hooked up to Internet- wireless with Afterthemac n300 usb internet adapter on eMac, my problem is that I need to have an IP Address of the wireless computer (eMac 750mhz) so that I can connect to it with a G4 Beige Mac os 9.2.2) which I can't find. I get the following in the Network preferences: Configure IPv4: Using DHCP (drop menu); IP Address 192.168.2.11; Subnet Mask 225.225.225.0; Router 192.168.2.1 The optional boxes for DNS Servers and Search Domains are empty.
These numbers were suggested by the Internet provider, which I entered in anticipation and before I received the n300. The router which I rent from the service provider is a SIEMENS GIGASET567. So- is there a way that I can change the numbers from above so that I can connect both computers. I tried the IP 192.168.2.11 but eventually a message comes back telling me it can't find the server. Another reason might be if I would want to hook up to the eMac from another office to get information on that particular computer.

First off I'm not very literate in security issues or computer terminology so I'm sure I am going to come off as a complete moron but can anyone tell me what the security risks are if someone has my IP address. Can they access my computer? Can they access my internet based email? Can they find out who I am? If I access a forum through a link from my internet email can the administrator of the forum (or anyone else). Hack my internet email? Hack my computer? Find out who I am? I have a Powerbook G4 and I'm running 10.4.11.

I searched and could find no discussion for the Address Book.Seems mine is locked or frozen.If I select any group other than ALL, when searching all is well. Start tpying and the search automatically starts narrowing down the choices.Select ALL, and nothing happens. In an group, double click the name and a small box appears, like a bubble pop up.I cannot get anything to appear on the right side, showing a big card. The info that is there right now is ATT Uverse, which as a television cable system, and now appears to have locked my address book.Contacts listed on the left, and a big page on the right to display the selection, only it won't change.

I have a problem with my macbookpro and connection to internet.
1 week ago my computer as stopped to connect to internet.
I was used connecting with my airport express, but at one point my macbook pro stopped receiving ip adress from interenet.
the message on the network connection is Airport is connected to the network. Airport is does not have an IP address and Cannot connect to the internet
I have try everything...:
the Airport is working becouse all the others computers inside on my office are working well with airport.
If I connect my computer with a cable I have the same problem.
I have reset and restart Airport and computer.
I have let my connection and computer disconnected and switched off for 24 our.
I have verifyining that is not an hardware problem because I have installed a fresh OS on an external drive and when I boot from the external drive everything working well.
The OS is on boot installation 10.4.9
the machine is a Mac book pro 17 2.16 GHZ intel core duo with 2gb 667 Mhz.
My problem is that on the old installation I have a lot of software installed and will be take a lot of time doing all the new installation. I wondering if there is a way to recover the situation.

I have AT&T, and recently ordered high speed internet service from them. I have a Macbook Pro (circa 2006) and a 2Wire 2701HG Gateway. I can connect to the internet with my ethernet cable no problem. When I go into System Preferences->network, Airport recognizes my network, but says "AirPort is connected to the network ___. Airport does not have an IP address and cannot connect to the Internet."

I have just bought a macbook, my internet connection at home is wireless however it requires the IP address of each computer using the wireless network to be entered into my wireless account, just an extra security measure. My new macbook has never been connected to the internet as I can not find the IP address I have tried applications/utlities/network utility and there is just a blank space where it says IP address. I have also tried System prefences/network and there is no IP address there either.

How to find address for external cd/dvd writer in my 2008 iMac? The internal dvd/cd writer stopped working years ago. It was less expensive to buy an external writer than have the internal one fixed. Until now I have had no problems with it.Â
Now my Toast burner needs the internal address of my external writer and what it is or how to obtain it.
You know one of those long number things like 198.209.3.101 for instance.Â
Info:
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10), 6 GB of RAM
