• I'm trying to restore a backup of Time Capsule, but it is bigger than my hard drive. No idea how to do it?

  I did all my backups on TIme Capsule. My hard drive crashed while I replaced it. I am now trying to restore my latest backup, but the message I get is that my backup is bigger than my hard drive. Any solution for this?

  Thank you!

  Sorry, but you will not be able to fully restore from a Time Machine backup except if your Mac has a hard drive that is big enough to cope.

  If you can not install a larger hard drive in the Mac, then your only other option would be to use the Migration Wizard on a Mac and only fly over the Documents and other data... not the Applications and other system files.

  Time Machine has a 1 fixed time between backups... I wouldn't change it... the design of the system works better if left to default values.

  I have an IMac with time machine and time capsule. If I buy a large external hard drive can back up all my Lightroom Info but also everything else to go to time machine, & that it saves on hard drive new, after he made a backup to time capsule?  This way, I would have two backups.

  Hi marinersr,

  I'm not sure the backup machine capsule/time, but according to me, that it backs up all data on your hard drive.

  Yes, you can back up the Lightroom catalog on the hard disk external.

  You can set the time of the backup under the catalog settings > backup > he would invite to the backup, when you exit Lightroom > click on select next to the location and specify the location as your new hard drive.

  If you want images of both original backup, you can configure to create a second copy of the images on your external drive during import.

  Kind regards

• is there a way (or an app?) to set up a local proxy server on the airport extreme or time capsule?

  Hello

  If you have the answer! I'll be so happy!

  is there a way (or an app?) to set up a local proxy server on the airport extreme or time capsule?

  Thanks for your time!

  BR,

  Stéphane

  All routers, including the AirPort base station, run as a transparent proxies for the local network behind them. However, if you are talking about the possibility of proxy requests between the LAN and Internet, then no, the airport base stations do not have a native function to support doing so.

  The two common methods to accomplish this are: 1) use a proxy on your local network, or 2) use a DNS, like OpenDNS service, which offers proxy services.

• no more WiFi which extends from the airport express and Time capsule

  I have no more WiFi which extends from the express airport and Time capsule.

  and once it worked...

  airportconfiguration-app also works, but the graphic display allows to have a straight white line. now, it's one interrupted...

  Your unbroken lines in airport show connections ethernet utility... broken lines show the wireless connections.

  So it depends on the extend method you used.

  I think at this moment, things are configured wrongly... for some strange reason things happens and elements on a stand-alone basis, return to a default mode.

  The best way to manage it is full factory reset on everything... and repeat the installation.

  I have no more WiFi which extends from the express airport and Time capsule.

  It seems to me that you extend a NON-APPLE router... in this case, your Apple routers must connect by ethernet and create a wireless network. Routers Apple cannot extend the NON-APPLE router wired.

  The express could extend the TC or visa versa... by wireless...

  Then I suggest say us what is the main router in the network?

  You have connected by ethernet to the TC or Express or both?

  If so please reset completely the two elements and try again. Make sure they are in bridge mode... It's the network tab. Router Mode is turned off.

  

  And your wireless tab is configured to create a wireless network...

  Use the same name (SSID) and even the security setting and the password as the main router to network roaming (extend wireless ethernet).

  If the Express and transport CANADA are the same, both will have this configuration... If the express extends to wireless then it should NOT be connected to all the way to ethernet... (sequel to wan side at least) and it will be set to expand wireless on the wireless tab.

• I can't access the backups on Time Capsule

  A month ago I deleted from my hard drive and more. I have a MacBook Pro 2012 running macOS. I can't access the files on Time Capsule before is erased in the month of August, I can see the story in the timeline panel, but I don't have access to anything before erasure. Is it possible to access to the files before the wipe?

  A month ago I deleted from my hard drive and more.

  What hard drive you are talking about: one internal on your MacBook Pro (MBP), an external drive attached to the MBP for Time Machine backups, or internal hard drive to time Capsule?

• Time machine does not see the existing backups

  When I tried to make a backup of TM to my doesn.t TM HD external see my existing backups and trying to do a new backup complete. Firstly, it said "preparing backup..." "that takes a long time before you go make a new backup full not not using the existing to make a differential.

  You're talking about two different things that above:

  • Create a new full backup
  • Recognizing the existence of previous backups

  You seem to be assuming that because Time Machine seems to be to create a new full backup, so should not recognize the existence of all the previous backups.  This assumption is wrong.  New full backups are created, for example, when the update of OS X.

  The way to check if the Time Machine recognizes the previous backups would be to use the Time Machine application to check if you can see previous versions of files.

• How to reset the password for the system administrator for Time Capsule?

  I need to do a system restore to 2008 MacBook my wife of my 2014 Time Capsule, and I'm stuck at the system administrator password prompt. It does not accept the password to base such as revealed by the Airport utility station > base station > show passwords on my MBP, which is able to save and enter Time Machine, even if the TC is configured to use individual accounts rather than a single disk password. I'm nervous about any base station reset option in case I spoil my backup. How can I me?

  Although TC is configured to use individual accounts rather than a single disk password

  You must use the right of the user and the password in this case. NOT the password from the drive.

  I'm nervous about any base station reset option in case I spoil my backup. How can I me?

  Reset complete... It will not damage the backups somehow... It simply returns to the default values.

  Let me recommend to you if you want to continue using the TC in this way... (useless IMHO). Please do an export of the configuration before factory reset you.

  

  With the help of user and passwords in the TC is near useless. It only affects the side of the router...

  If you need more security using encrypted backups... but the reality is... the security more you add less useful the backup is likely to be. As you have now discovered... When you need it... you need as clear and clear as possible.

• Restore the missing applications after Time Capsule

  I just had to restore my 2010 Mac Book Pro using Time Machine and a recent full backup on my Time Capsule.

  There are a lot of important apps now gone, including the App Store, Safari, disk utility and many others.

  I have considered installing Sierra to correct this, but cannot access the app store via Chrome or Firefox

  I have all my documents, etc., on the Time Capsule so able to perform a clean installation of Sierra, if I was able to download

  I run the front last Sierra OS, well that may not even check that, as clicking on 'about my Mac', produces nothing at all...

  Thank you

  Yes, clean, install the OS then migrate your files using the migration wizard.

  It's actually the best way to install an operating system.

  And next time you want to make a backup that works... use a Chronosync, Carbon Copy Cloner or superduper etc.. Time Machine is not reliable.

• To the help of two time Capsules, but a as a external hard drive only

  I just bought the new Time Capsule 2 TB "ac" and created a new network home wireless with it (TC is connected by Ethernet to the Modem/Router). I also use this TC to my Time Machine backup. Now, I would like to use my old Time Capsule ' don't (dish, 2012) as an external hard drive in my network in order to make manual backups of various data by drag-and - drop. I donnot want to expand my network wirelessly with the old TC. How can I include in my network just like an external hard drive?

  Very simple... Connect TC Old WAN LAN new TC... the old Installer TC mode bridge... and wireless off.

  He then worked as an external drive in the network.

• Restore backup to Time Capsule

  I got my iMac reinstalled and at the same time, updated to OS X El Capitan.

  After connecting to the network and my time Machine, I tried to restore the last backup before reinstalling.

  I can connect to my Time Capsule via Time Machine, but trying to open the disk image following warning appears:

  Image: XXX iMac.sparsebundle

  Reason: Resource temporarily unavailable.

  I tried to restart both my iMac and my Time Capsule

  Thank you

  Henrik

  Connect the TC directly on the Mac in ethernet... disable wireless... There still need to be connected to the internet too long that the TC is configured as a router.

  Try again.

  You use migration assistant right?

• 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.

  http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html

  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.

• New backup on Time Capsule

  My Time Capsule was fortunately automatically back up since September 2013 using Time Machine and is full by far. However, Time Machine this week said that a new backup should be created. I created this, and after about 24 hours, the new backup is complete. Time Machine now says that the oldest backup is the one that has just finished. This isn't a problem and everything seems to be in order, but I was wondering if this had happened to someone else (and why is it) and there is something to fear?

  Thank you very much.

  Concerning

  Doug

  What you describe, it seems that you could see a message that looks like this:

  

  This message appears when your previous backups were corrupted and not enough to use stable. Utility of disc on your Mac has tried to repair the damage, but he couldn't, so the old files must be deleted and started a new backup.

  I hope that you will not see this message again, because the same thing will be happening everywhere if it appears.
