• 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.

• 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.

• Airport Time Capsule does not completely erase

  1. I sell my Time Capsule airport.  I've referenced the article here: check, repair, or erase a disc AirPort Time Capsule - Apple Support.

  2 - I have completed each step, as shown in the article and place the drive to perform a secure erase drive with 7 assists, which was completed in a little less than 24 hours.

  3. I then checked to ensure that it has been erased and when I click on the Time Machine preferences it says that there are 2 TB 2 TB.

  4. However; He also has dates marked for the "oldest backup" and "Last backup", which I would have assumed that there is no data stored, to include my more old and more recent data backups.

  5. Furthermore, I checked to see why he had these dates and clicked "Enter Time Machine".  To my surprise, there are a number of very recent backups between now and the date of the "more old backup.

  Note:

  6. the time Machine airport has been recorded since mid-September.  It was unplugged and stored in its intact original packaging.  I took it out a week or two just to check there and have been using it without any problem - works perfectly and perform backups.

  7 - the 'oldest' backup is dated the day I put the unit in stock.  It seems that there is no other 'safeguards' existing before that date; However, when I scroll back in time Machine, there are windows that appear earlier on this date in September, but there are no dates on top of these windows and I can't access it.

  8 as mentioned, it is said that 2 TB to 2 TB is available, so for me it's contradictory?

  9 - the device is connected to the internet and my computer has access to the unit all the time he was leading the erase process.

  10. I did not attempt to restore from any of these previous dates in the case of an error, and I lost everything!

  11 - Time Capsule airport is one of the newer models (tour version) purchased, I think, fall of 2014 or 2015 spring.

  Get help to help me erase this disc completely would be very well appreciated.  Thank you.

  See you soon

  3. I then checked to ensure that it has been erased and when I click on the Time Machine preferences it says that there are 2 TB 2 TB.

  It is truly erased... It would show a loss of ability otherwise.

  4. However; He also has dates marked for the "oldest backup" and "Last backup", which I would have assumed that there is no data stored, to include my more old and more recent data backups.

  This information is stored in the local plist... you also need to reset your local time Machine.

  5. Furthermore, I checked to see why he had these dates and clicked "Enter Time Machine".  To my surprise, there are a number of very recent backups between now and the date of the "more old backup.

  Time Machine can make snapshots the... so when the TC is not available it stores the files in your hard drive... This makes it confusing to people.

  11 - Time Capsule airport is one of the newer models (tour version) purchased, I think, fall of 2014 or 2015 spring.

  In the Time Machine disk tab... Make sure that it always shows full disk is available. So it should show up here at 2 TB free as in Time Machine. As long as this is the case, you're good to sell.

  

  Do a quick erase... and disconnect it from your network. Do not put it back. Time Machine can still detect it's available... did you do a factory reset you need to do this as well to get rid of your passwords etc.

  Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the drive hard in doing so.

  Universal factory reset

  Turning off the TC... That is, remove the power supply cord or the power at the wall outlet, wait 10 seconds... Hold the reset button... be nice... Turn on always even now in reset... and keep holding in for another 10 seconds. You may need assistance because it is difficult to hold in reset and power on. It will show the success quickly flashing led front. Release reset... and wait a few minutes for the TC to reset and return with the factory settings. If the front LED flashes quickly you missed and simply try again. The reset is quite fragile in these... Press the key while it is just click away and not more... I've seen people bend lever or even break. I use a toothpick as a tool.

  NB. None of your files on the hard drive of the TC are removed... This simply clears the settings of the router of the TC.

• How long backups stay them airport time capsule if I make my computers of restoration

  I want to completely wipe my MacBook Pro and set it up as if new to it clear of files that I don't use often, but I want to keep these files on my Time Capsule airport.

  Ive seen a lot of posts about how after a random time ATC (airport Time Capsule) automatically deletes files that are no longer on this computer that you backed up previously.

  QUICK SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: can I have factory restore my computer and leave my old files to my Time Capsule airport or do I have to connect an external drive to ATC?

  Thank you

  Firefox

  Connect an external hard drive to your computer and put the files it contains. The files you want to keep should be at least two disks; You can fail at any time.

  This can be done when the drive is connected to the time Capsule, but supported formats are more limited, and the process will be slower.

• Airport Time Capsule HD access

  I have an AC of 802.11 airport Time Capsule 3 to, PartNumber: ME182LL/A, and I want to save my MacBook Air by Time Capsule app.

  In addition, I use it as an external hard drive, moving some files to the airport Time Capsule using the Finder.

  I use physical conection from my MacBook to the trough of Time Capsule a RJ45-USB converter.

  But I am extremelly experiencing a lot of time to access my files using the Finder.

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

  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.

  

• Airport Time Capsule and WD MyBook

  I'm a newbie Macbook Pro owner, about a week now, El Capitan running.

  I've just hung up my Airport Time Capsule (3 t) and it seems to work, as the reports of Time Machine backup complete.  I am also connected to the WiFi Airport.

  The Installation Guide says I can connect a hard drive via the USB port.  I have connected a WD MyBook USB port; It is in the format exFAT and contains the data from my old computer to Windows 7.

  What should I do to make this available for the Macbook Pro?  I don't see anywhere in the finder.

  The time Capsule cannot read USB drives to NTFS or exFAT format. Plug it directly into the Mac.

• AirPort Time Capsule Help!

  I have an airport Time Capsule, which supported my computer for the last 2 years.  We have recently changed our router and now cannot save.  This is obviously because of the wifi name and different password for what is stored in the time Capsule.  I looked at various manuals and notes help but it says click on edit and I don't see it.  There is no change when I go to Applications - Utilities - airport, just my time capsule with

  Open Airport utility. Go to wireless setup using the menu of the button on the upper part of the Airport utility display window. Here, you can change what you need to change - the network name Wi - Fi and the new password. Click Update when finished.

• 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!

• Why didn't I go and turn my Airport Time Capsule to be able to backup?

  Hello.

  Why didn't I go and turn my Airport Time Capsule to be able to backup? It has been like this from day one. At the point where I keep my iMac off for a few days, my Time Capsule airport must be enabled and the new in order to save. Any suggestions?

  Concerning

  Simon

  Hello Ladro Maltese,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  If I understand your message when you shut down your iMac a few days and then go back on you have to turn off your Time Capsule, then on again as well. I know how it is important for you to be able to have your Time Capsule works well. The first step that I recommend is to make sure that your Time Capsule firmware is up to date.

  This article includes information about how to manually and automatically check updates the firmware for your Time Capsule:

  Keep your base station to day.

  After updating the firmware see if the problem persists.

  Best regards

• Airport Time Capsule 2 TB blocking my internet access.

  I just bought a new airport Time Capsule 2 TB. When it is plugged in and running, I lose access to the internet! There is a wifi wireless in the House. What is the cause?

  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?
