macOS sierra time capsule does not

I have upgraded to iOS sierra on my MacBook 2013 and 2015 s pro on 24/09/16. The time machine-

Time capsule has not worked since. Wifi works but not the backup. We need real expert

help solve this problem, not conjecture. I understand that if I use others

equipment suppliers, it can give wrong. But I'm all Apple. Help, please. I should have mentioned

It's a new time capsule airport which was working fine until I changed the Sierra.

Thank you

Bill

afternoon, this seems to be a common problem - I came here looking for an answer as well. There is a smc / ram p reset fix floating MacOS Sierra - time machinestuck preparation backup on network devices. There is also an exclusion to spotlight some suggest work. I have tried both and neither worked for me, a lot more. I ended up clear time capsule. Airport utility > change > disks > erase disk. has immediately started a new backup and have not had a problem since.

  • 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.

  • Intermittently, Time Capsule does not connect to the cable Modem

    Capsule time bought a few weeks ago.  Barely implemented.  TC does not recognize the cable modem.  These forums to get help.  Tracking the specific set of sequence with long delays between the steps and the modem and the TC.  It worked for about a month.  Now about once a day the TC works but not internet wireless or ethernet through the CT.  If I unplug the TC and let it restart and initialize internet connection returns.  During the internet cuts I have ethernet and Wi - Fi at transport CANADA, printers, and drives on the network as well as the time Capsule backup drive and your data.  If I ever lose ethernet and Wi - Fi to TB.  In addition, the modem works fine.  If I cut the TC and to the cable modem ethernet connection I have access to the internet.

    Thank you.  All were huge last time assistance.

    If it's always the same modem... a SB6141 of Arris... There have been a number of reports of trouble with this product with Apple routers. There is no mention that in your first post a month ago, because we wanted to see if a reset of the good modem would get things works well for you.  I had the same experience as with the same exact modem you have.

    The SB6141 is a good product, and the time Capsule is as well. But for some users, these two products do not work as well together. If you call people to support for modem, they show sure to like the question time Capsule. If you call Apple, they will have a different view on things. The bottom line when you go to a support group... because it of always the other guy that you are having problems.

    At this point, the only real solution would be to decide if you want to try another brand and model of modem and keep the time Capsule, or keep the modem and try another brand of router and then connect the Capsule to the router.

    In my case, I replaced the SB6141 (I tried 3 different SB6141s previously because the ISP admitted having difficulties with this modem and some routers) with a 5341J Zoom, and did not have a single falling Internet connection since I installed the Zoom for more than a year. If your Internet service provider indicates that the Zoom is a product that is compatible with their service, you might want to try this modem.

    But unfortunately, there is no assurance that the "solution" that has worked for me will be the solution that suits you. Such is the nature of the beast, when you work with products from two different suppliers.

  • Time capsule does not connect to the Internet! Help!

    I bought my own personal modem (surfboard SB6121) and activated with Comcast. I connect to my modem via an Ethernet cable and it works perfectly. But when I connect the modem to time capsule, I can't connect to the internet. I have already restored it and still nothing. The light blinks orange and 2 notification messages I get are no internet connection and no DNS server.

    anything else I can do?

    Apple routers have known problems with some modems... which you have chosen the second worst... SB6141 is most noted as problematic, followed closely by SB6121.

    The question is the more remarkable with the airports of model AC... If TC or AE.

    The perhaps impossible question of fixing...

    First of all turned off, looks that you can not be Exchange to the customer or to the router modem correctly.

    When swap you from a computer directly connected to the TC you MUST turn off the modem for about 15-20 min... you do this?

    Otherwise, it's what it takes...

    If you have already done this... Sorry it is simply the question of compatibility and will not work.

    Are you IPv6 zone you define IPv6 properly...

  • Time Capsule does not remove older backups.

    Our 2 TB time capsule is full and no more deletes older backups so new back ups fail.  We have two Macs with El Capitan. What can we do for the capsule of time delete old backups?

    Unfortunately, when the proposed backup is too large, Time Machine can not delete older files to make room for new backups.

    Your options... in terms of more expensive down... are:

    (1) add an another Time Capsule and begin to go to backups

    (2) add a USB hard drive to your existing Time Capsule and start to go back up

    (3) erase the hard drive on the existing time Capsule and start backups

  • Airport Time Capsule device not found

    I have the time Capsule on the airport of the TB 3 802.11ac (bought 9/2014).  It integrates the latest version of the 7.7.7.  Just last week, I received the error device not found (.. .has been previously a part of your network... etc.).  The internet connection is always good and the component of the time capsule router still works.  When I unplug the device, it can find him but eventually will go down in a few minutes.  I also did a warm reboot, but some results.  Printer connected to the time capsule does not, nor does Time Machine back ups.

    Would be grateful of any advice on why the drive not found error continues to occur.  Thank you!

    You have Back to My Mac enabled on the Time Capsule?

    If so, turn it off for the moment in the AirPort Utility and restart the time Capsule.

  • Time Capsule will not extend the Airport Extreme network

    My airport extreme (do not know what version... can't even find it in the system report) offers a WiFi modem. I have a Time Capsule 4 G which extends the network. This works well for a few years now. Suddenly, the CAP began flashing yellow. Time capsule said Airport utility cannot extend the network and I should make sure the password is correct, that it is in the signal of a network, etc. I went through the settings of the time capsule by ensuring that passwords are correct. It is certainly within the range of the signal of the airport extreme (they are both in the same place as always... Besides, I put my iPhone next to the time capsule and I get a signal strong). I tried a hard reset of the time capsule. Of course, this does not work.

    Time Capsule seems to be communicating with the computer very well. I can access it via the Airport utility and reboot. I can access the data on its disk backup. Airport Extreme is to give a signal of good wi - fi connection. I'm still able to pick it up with my computer (even if my computer is far more than the time capsule).

    Someone has an idea of what's going on?

    Given that the Capsule does not correctly connect unless everything is OK with the AirPort Extreme... I suggest that you turn off the time Capsule for now and check that everything works correctly on the AirPort Extreme.

    My airport extreme (do not know what version... can't even find it in the system report)

    You say that the AirPort Extreme does not appear when you open AirPort Utility?

    If so, press and hold the option on your Mac key while you double-click on the image of the AirPort Extreme.

    Model of the AirPort Extreme, you will appear at the top of the summary page. What is it?

    Near the bottom of the summary page, check to see if there is a parameter that is displayed for the State.  If there is, what is the message next to status?

  • Time machine does not take into account my partition which is case-sensitive.  Recovery has no data of this partition.

    I have a partition on my drive that is formatted for OS X Journaled, case sensitivity.  When I perform a backup, then recovery, all data in this partition is missing.  Time Machine does not recognize partitions of case-sensitive?  Strange, as the default format for Time Capsule itself is case sensitive.

    You cannot use the formatting case-sensitive with OS X. You will need to repartition the drive to Insensitive in full. You can not do any repairs or restore from a backup Time Machine.

  • After upgrade to El Capitan Time Machine does not automatically

    Recently, I upgraded my Macbook Pro and iMac 24 to El Capitan.  Time Machine does not automatically work on the iMac.   I now use the backup to get a backup to run.  MacBook Pro is very well.

    Thinking that this might be the associated time Capsule, I removed the disc from the Capsule and ran Spinrite on it.  Car is very good.  Then I deleted all the files on the Time Capsule and created new Time machine backups on two computers.  No problem, except the iMac not run automatically Time machine.

    And yes the selection for Time Machine is configured to run automatically.

    A bug in OS X 10.11.1 prevents automatic backups that happens when a desktop Mac (iMac, Mac mini or Mac Pro) is connected to a UPS (UPS) with the USB feature.

    Please, back up all data before proceeding.

    First, check the App Store for a later update to OS X. If it is available when you read this review, install it and see if the problem is resolved. I speak not beta versions.

    Otherwise, you can work around the bug as follows.

    These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.

    Please triple - click anywhere in the line below on this page to select:

    sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine RequiresACPower 0

    Copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

    Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Paste in the Terminal window by pressing the command-V key combination. I tested these instructions only with the Safari browser. If you use another browser, you may need to press the return key after pasting. You will be asked for your login password. Nothing displayed when you type. Type carefully, and then press return. If you do not have a password, you will need to configure one before you can run the command. You can get a warning to be careful. Confirm. You don't need to display the warning.

    If you see a message that your user name "is not in the sudoers file", then you have not logged as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.

    Wait for a new line ending with a dollar sign ($) below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal.

    Restart the computer and test.

  • Quick Time Player does not work in El Capitan

    Now Quick Time Player does not work properly.  When I click to use it, the only thing it allows me to do is 'click to drag', while he was recording a screen, buttons disappear and the only way I can stop the recording is to go to the menu screen and exit the Quick Time Player.  So annoying!

    It also is not allowing me to change.  When I try to edit my videos and then save it, it says that it cannot save the file.

    None of this makes no sense at all.

  • Time Machine does not believe that a volume is identical to an exact volume in doubles with the same name

    • Had a player named ' external 1. »
    • He began to miss (I had another drive of the same manufacturer, and 'External 1' making the same noises as the other just before it failed).
    • Off time Machine
    • A got a new drive and formatted, calling it "new external 1".
    • All "external 1" copied on 'new external 1 "'.
    • Not mounted 'External 1' and threw it in a box that I keep for hardware failures
    • Renamed 'New external 1' on «external 1"»
    • Time Machine running and went to preferences. In the list of things to exclude the back - ups has been 'External 1.'
    • Removed '1 external' in the list of exclusions (highlighted his name and press the sign less)
    • Checked and found that "external 1" was still on the list of things to exclude
    • Repeated several times, but I couldn't go down the list

    Somehow Time Machine does not believe that the new "external 1" is the same as the first (who has done again to the top without any problems)

    What can I do to get the time Machine no no keep 'External 1' permanently on its exclusion list and the addresses as the same drive as the one I replaced?

    Furthermore, if I rename "External 1" to "New external 1", Time Machine will save it. But I can not just keep the "new external 1" name for reasons of scripts, etc..
