I assume you're interested in having the packet's IPv4 source and destination addresses displayed in the packet list pane? Those fields will be displayed in the Source and Destination columns for all IPv4 packets. Perhaps the packet you're looking at is not an IPv4 packet, perhaps it's an ARP packet, for example, in which case there is no IPv4 source and destination addresses to display. What is the protocol indicated for the packet that you're looking at? If you know it's an IPv4 packet, then perhaps the IPv4 dissector is disabled, in which case, you will have to enable it first by checking the Analyze -> Enabled Protocols -> IPv4 box.
