Did you read the link from Tom's first reply to your post? It explains in great detail what your problem is and possible fixes.

If you cannot see those packets from your machine, your machine is probably connected to a switched Ethernet network. For more information, please read the section on capturing packets at http://www.wireshark.org/faq.html#q7.1

Hi Tom,

       I understand what you are saying but I am not getting the packets of
all the hosts in the local net. I have the requirement that I need to
capture the packets coming and going through the particular IP Address. but
I am unable to see the packets from that IP.

Thanks,
