Access the Partition on airport Time Capsule 2 TB

I have successfully partitioned my Airport Time Capsule 500 GB for Time Machine backups and a volume of 1.5 TB to store data.  However the 1.5 TB partition is visible in the Finder when a backup Time Machine is running.  I am new to Mac and OSX.  Any help would be appreciated.  I am running OSX 10.11.2.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I have successfully partitioned my Airport Time Capsule 500 GB for Time Machine backups and a volume of 1.5 TB to store data.

Actually no, you didn't partition disk of TC... you partitioned the sparsebundle (it's a virtual disk) used by TM... and this is a no... in fact, it's such a big not that I recommend you remove the TM backup by erasing the TC and try again... Make a backup clean fee with TM... and never touch again... It is reserved for the TM.

Create your own file DMG if you insist on storing files in the TC.

To limit the size, it might be possible to set the size of the sparsebundle max but it is not always viable.

See here the A8.

See here Pondini Q3. He is old but still relevant.

Just so that you understand, there is no tool partition a physical drive TC... you have to remove the disc from the CT and partition on a Mac. then put it back in the TC... This is difficult and I guarantee and will lead to continuous errors on the drive with the firmware of TC.

  • Extend the reach of the WiFi with airport Time Capsule and Airport Express

    I want to extend the range of my WiFi network running on a Time Capsule with an Airport Extreme airport. The Internet, ADSL, signal goes from the cable box in a closet and has two Ethernet cables connecting the box. I installed a simple Ethernet switch and ran inside, with both Internet cables Ethernet Miss and in two rooms in my apartment. I created the Capsule of time like the WiFi router, then the Express in the other room in Bridge Mode to extend the range of the WiFi network and enable AirPlay. This configuration works well for a while, but after a certain time has problems. The Express seems to go back to the creation of the WiFi network on its own and I saw the problem of the conflict addreses DCHP.

    What seemed to work correctly using the Express as the "pivot" and I fell straight Internet on it and an Ethernet cable to connect the Time Capsule in Bridge Mode. It's far from ideal for me, however, because I like the Express to be in another room to extend the range of the WiFi network in this part of my apartment and be able to use it for AirPlay.

    Help, please.

    If you could let us know what operating system you use on your Mac or PC, we'll give you a configuration suggested for the AirPort Express, which will allow the Express and the Time Capsule to connect to the Ethernet switch and perform correctly.

    We assume that the switch and the wiring will function properly in your current configuration, as well as the time Capsule, is that correct?

  • Time Machine (on Mac) does not detect the airport Time Capsule

    Originally posted on the page of the airport, but seems to be the better question for this group. Sorry for the double post

    Looking for advice on how to get the Time Machine utility for access to my Time Capsule. I use an iMac in late 2012 with MAC OS 10.12 TimeCapsule is 2015 7.7.7 running latest firmware. Airport utility is the latest firmware 6.3.7.

    When I run the application Time Machine, Time Capsule is not detected. I tried the two WiFi and with cables connected Ethernet (not tried USB yet) and my Time Capsule doesn't have a lightning bolt or firewire ports.

    Open Airport utility & see the airport time capsule. I can see all connected devices, including the MAC, but no prompt activation Time Machine on the Time Capsule.

    I recently used TM on this iMac with a G-Technology drive. It auto detects the time machine and executes a back up. But airport Time Capsule will not.

    Any suggestions?

    Sierra has been problematic with the TC.

    1. make sure you don't have any charge virus protection software. In fact, I would say that disable all software 3rd part at the moment.

    2. make sure that you can actually write to disk of TC.

    Attach the TC disc in the finder and copy a file on disk, you can delete it later... It's just to ensure that you have full write permission. If it does not for the most part, you won't be able to use Time Machine... If you can then try TM immediately...

    Just to be clear, the TC is a network device. You have tested with ethernet and wireless... Ok.. They are only suitable methods. You cannot use USB. And clearly, TC has never had nor will never be ports Firewire or lightning.

    3. no chance that a reset complete TC. This will not delete the files on the hard drive, but you must make sure that the device is configured on the current computer.

    4. There are many positions in these days... read through them and do some research. Sierra is a bleeding edge new... So wait you to spend a lot of the precious liquid if you choose to be an early adopt.

  • Why the airport Time Capsule for P/W after update to 7.7.7

    Time Capsule ask P/W when I click on it in the Airport utility to see whats connected to it, but never recognizes the P/W or back with the icon to forget.

    He returns to normal after a disconnect and a return to the restart card. This happens since the latest firmware update to 7.7.7.

    Once the Capsule is back to normal and you can access the settings in AirPort Utility, my suggestion would be to delete the current password on the Base Station and add a new password. It worked for me with the same question, and it might for you as well.

    Make sure you remember the password in the keychain in your Mac is checked, and then click Update at the bottom right of the window to save the new settings.

    There is a wifi wireless in the House. What is the cause?

    Potentially, Yes. Network Wi - Fi of the new Time Capsule can interfere with this other Wi - Fi router. What is the brand and model of the other device? What are your objectives of networking for the Time Capsule (TC)? In other words, do you want to expand the wireless of the other device, or create another Wi - Fi network, or something else?

    Do you have an idea how I can fix this connection?

    I guess that your Mac has a Thunderbolt port.

    Use a Thunderbolt for the Ethernet card.  It's up to 10 times faster than the USB adapter. Your actual speed will be 4 to 5 times faster than USB.

  • HOW THE AIRPORT TIME CAPSULE WIRELESS NETWORK IS PROTECTED?

    I implemented the airport Time Capsule, using a DSL modem connected to the internet as its bridge.  MacBook Pro was used for initial set up by the bolt of lightning to Ethernet connector and then disconnected and works perfectly.  Now, I would like to use Wi - Fi for my Samsung phone not iOS.  On the Samsung wireless I connect to my home network using a password.  Well, I don't think that a password was never set.  How can I configure my wifi at home to establish a password?   I don't think that the modem settings should enter in solving this for me, but I'll add that the modem required a static IP address be entered for this connection when its router features have been disabled for the connection of bridge.

    If the Time Capsule (TC) provides the wireless network, then you can secure it using AirPort Utility, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the TC and then, select change.
    • Select the wireless tab.
    • In the wireless security, select the type of security. I highly recommend that you choose: WPA2 Personal
    • Enter a password in the field password wireless. Enter the same password in the verify password.
    • Select Update.

  • Parameter problem to the airport Time Capsule

    Already, we currently have a WiFi system with a NetGear router and a modem from Time Warner.

    I just want to use the airport Time Capsule to back up my Mac.  My husband has a PC.  I followed the instructions but the airport still comes up in the utility.

    Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 and the latest 802.11 ac 3 TB so I don't know what I'm doing wrong.  I plug an Ethernet cable at the airport, then in the Modem - nothing after I plug the power - Amber flashing light.  I have changed ports unplugged and plugged back in French - restart the Modem.  Nothing works.  I bought it so it would work straight out of the box - so far, I have spent a lot of time trying to understand it.

    Any help would be so appreciated!

  • Need help with the implementation of a replacement airport Time Capsule

    Hi... Recognizing the help. My 1 TB airport Time Capsule (ATC) crashed and I bought a new 2 TB ATC to replace. In my preference system, Time Machine reflects that my ATC 1 TB is still active. How to pay safely my 2 new cases of tuberculosis ATC to replace the 1 TB ATC?

    Assuming that you 1. already connected the new TC on your network, and/or 2. you were able to save all data on TC 1 TB, or simply do not take care of him You can just open Time Machine preferences, turn the Time Machine off, and then select the disk in the new time Capsule. A brand-new first backup starts to run, and it will certainly take time.

    Another option is to connect the new TC on ethernet directly on your Mac and then select the Time Machine preferences, this will speed up the first backup.

    In case you were able to archive the old backup and transfer it to your new TC, you will continue your backup schedule by simply selecting the new TC in Time Machine preferences.

    I hope this helps.

  • My LAN airport Time Capsule 802.11ac began to abandon their studies on the Cox network.

    My local network that the internet began to abandon their studies in airport Time Capsule 802.11ac associated with my network of Cox. The green light stays on. Unplug it and plug it back bring it will return immediately.

    I disabled IPv6 on the suggestion of the counsel of COX because Cox and Apple have a problem with these capsules of time regarding IPv6 and IPv4 is supposed to work.

    It is a question of cox or should my time capsule service?

    This modem do you have? Brand and model please.

    It may be a contributing factor, where the transition to IPv6 is causing issues, but raised another problem.

    He has also reported a DNS issue... Please fix the DNS servers of your TC... (IPv6 is set to link-local now in your TC?) Assign the values google DNS and see if it improves things.
