My AirPort Utility is not configure my Time Capsule

Hello

I just bought a Time Capsule and trying to set up, but it seems that my AirPort Utility is not set up. He continues to display an error message.

Anyone have a similar experience and know the solution to this?

What is the error?

It can sometimes be a bit difficult.

If you have an ipad or iphone... iPad is bigger is easier to work on...

Download and use the version of iOS utility, because it is much more reliable than the Mac one.

If you still have questions... Tell us available to the entire network.

  • Connected to but the Airport utility does not see the time capsules

    Hi, I have several time capsules.

    I can connect to the web, but the airport utility does not see the time capsules.  I tried to restart the time capsules, router, computer, but I still don't see any of the devices on the network.

    What now?

    Have you tried the airport utility in the iOS version... Download on the App or iTunes store and load... Works better than the Mac version.

    Other than what Mac running what OS do you use?

    This modem you have and how is the installation of TC on the network.

  • Suddenly, MB Pro can not save on Time Capsule

    A month earlier, out of nowhere, I get a time error message:

    "Backup failed."

    Time Machine could not save in "XXX Time Capsule."   Then in details:

    "Time Machine could not complete the backup for"XXX Time Capsule".

    "The backup disk image" / Volumes/XXX of MacBook Pro (4) .sparsebundle of the Time Capsule/XXX ' could not be found (error (null)) "." "

    Have restarted the T.C. and just updated the firmware - no help.  OS X version is up-to-date.  Nothing has changed I know. Full to 98% of the time Machine, but it has been like this for a long time and just deletes old entries, as it should.

    Any thoughts?  I was able to empty the contents of the time capsule, I suppose, if being near capacity could be the culprit.   ???

    Thank you!

    Being near capacity should not be the problem, but of course, everything is possible.

    If Time Machine backups are essential for you, I suggest that you check first of all in existing ones to another drive. Then erase the time Capsule drive and start a new Time Machine backup.

    You can do both archive and delete measures directly from AirPort Utility, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility and then select the time Capsule.
    • Select Edit.
    • Select the disks tab.
    • For the process of archiving, select Archive disk...
    • For the delete process, select erase disc...
  • Linking New Extreme old Extreme and Express. New Airport utility does not recognize old Extreme/Express

    I had a linear new extreme connection (connected to the wireless model Cat5) related to the old extreme then Express (newish).

    I would have put in place using airport Utility (for example) 4 years ago and has worked well.

    I changed my wireless modem (formerly broken) but cannot now reconnect the old extreme and express to the extreme again.

    The extreme new connects to internet just fine as long as it is in Bridge mode (does not work in DHCP/NAT mode).

    My real question is the utility software Airport now seems not to recognize the Express extreme or old old to get re-connected.

    The manual of Apple still shows configurations using the old utilitarian approach Airport (with each unit sitting on LHS page)

    If you're still using OS X (10.5.8)... as, you enter in your profile information... then the AirPort Utility in this operating system must be able to recognize the old AirPort Extreme and Express.

    However, if you have updated to a new operating system such as the Mountain Lion (10.8.x), Mavericks (10.9.x), Yosemite (10.10.x) or El Capitan (10.11.x)... and... you have more "round" or version 'dome' in the form of AirPort Extreme, and an old version of the AirPort Express A1084... so, the new version of AirPort Utility is not compatible with older airports.

    So, this would help a lot if we could get clarification from your part...

    (1) what operating system you're using now?  If you are not sure about this, click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click on about this Mac and post back with the Version of OS X number that you see there.

    (2) what version of the AirPort Extreme you may have.  Is it a 'rounder', or 'dome' in the form of version... or... The "flat" or "square" version? If you have flat or square version, the number of model of the device is required. It is on the lower part of the airport, probably integrated in the base of carpet of MOSS. The model number starts with an 'A' follow-up of four digits. Please post back this information.

    (3) what version of AirPort Express you have?  Please look for the model number on the side of the Express. It is difficult to see, with grey lettering in a certain context, so you need to perhaps good lighting and glasses to discern the number of reading.  As extreme, the Express, model number starts with an 'A' followed by four digits. Please post back this information.

    Once we have the information we need, we know more about how to proceed from this point.

  • Airport utility does not Time Capsule

    I recently bought a 2 TB TimeCapsule airport.  The ethernet cable from the router is plugged into the WAN connector and the power is on the Time Capsule device.  I can access internet via WiFi labeled Apple 686555 network device, but the Airport utility cannot locate the TimeCapsule which is 10 feet.  He sees the Apple 686555 network device, but not to join the airport Time Capsule.  The error is very descriptive: "an unexpected error has occurred.  Try again. "Very revealing.  Don't know what to do.  iMac running OS x 10.10 and 6.3.4 airport

    Thoughts?

    The "unexpected error" is caused by a bug in Yosemite.

    Try powering down of the time Capsule by pulling the power cord to the back of the unit or by unplugging the power cord from the wall AC

    Restart the Mac.

    After that the Mac was for a minute or two, switch on the time Capsule and let it run for a minute

    Then try the installation again

  • Airport utility does not support my Airport - options to change the channel?

    I have an older Airport - extreme, I think, and the utility does not support.  I'm out of luck to change channel?  Time Warner said their modem did not support my newest Airport (? it's TWC) and now the internet keeps smoking at least once or twice a day.

    I suggest that you keep it simple.

    Your airport automatically analyze and choose the best channel to use when it lights up. So, if you have not done for some time, powering to the airport, wait a few seconds and then put it to the top.

    Even if you could change the channel... How would you know which channel to choose?

    Time Warner said that their modem did not support my most recent airport

    Time Warner will only support for a product they have received for you.  But this does not mean that a router from Apple will not work with their service. I've used Apple products for over 10 years with Time Warner.

  • Make an express airport only connect to an another AE and not the main Time Capsule.

    Hi all

    I have a Time Capsule airport and 2 Airport Express. The Capsule is far and an of the expressed airport is in the middle (call this) 1 and the other far from it, I'm calling this 2. As it is now, the 2nd Airport Express terminal connects to Time Capsule. However, it gives me much lower speed (Interruptions during the game). But if the 2nd Airport Express connects to the AE first, which is the extension of the network of transport CANADA, significantly improves the speed.

    I've tried everything. All devices are relatively new (think of the last model). I called the Apple Support, but their solution was to any wire. I asked if the 2nd AE can be configured statically, but they have quoted me their policy, which is not supported and took my info and never called back. I read the posts of the forum, but could not find any relevant information.

    Can someone tell me how I can do the 2nd AE connect only to the AE 1 (in the middle) so I can get faster speed for the game device wired to the 2nd AE? Your feedback is much appreciated.

    Kind regards

    B.

    When you try to extend using the wireless, there will be a loss of speed associated with the process.

    When the two Airport Express connect to Time Capsule, it will be more loss of speed because the 2 devices are connecting and extending.

    If the 2nd Airport Express does not connect to... Time Capsule and it connect instead to the 1st AirPort Express... then 2nd Terminal AirPort Express doesn't have to extend the network.  The 2nd Airport Express could be used for AirPlay, or to connect to a remote printer on the USB port, but it cannot 'expand' or 'repeat' in this case the signal of the wireless network.

    So you're wrong bing into thinking that the network is the extension more quickly if the 2nd Express connects to the 1st. Your network will behave at the faster speed even if you just turn off the 2nd Express.  It is not at all in any case extending the network, and you don't need.

    Here's another way to look at the same thing... using an illustration of the Apple support document for the extension of a network:

    IF... you can connect the 1st Terminal AirPort Express at the time using an Ethernet cable Capsule... then... the 2nd Airport Express would extend the signal from the first... but speed would be because you are trying to extend using the wireless.

    SO... connect the AirPort Express devices using Ethernet... then you will have maximum coverage at the highest speed... Since there is no loss of signal via the Ethernet cable.

  • Airport utility will not install

    When I try to install AirPort Utility on my iMac running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

    I get the following message;

    AirPort utility cannot be installed to this disk.

    The version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported.

    could you please help.

    concerning

    Stephen

    OS X El Capitan is already bundled with AirPort Utility v6.x. It seems that you try to install the older v5.x for the utility. Unfortunately, this older version will not install on later versions of OS X.

    If you require administer an older 802.11 g AirPort access point you will need a Mac running OS X Lion or earlier or a Windows XP or 7 PC.

  • Is it possible to use the AirPort Utility software to configure the newest Airport Extreme on Windows 10?

    I ask because it seems to be warnings on the download page, saying that it is for Windows 7 and does not work with all the extremes of the airport.

    Airport utility is obsolete... Apple is more support the AU for windows, it seems...

    The old utility can still install in win10, but it is not until the the version specification AC TC that require an airport of v6 or extreme utility... That is to say a Mac with Lion or later... or the utility version iOS ipad or iphone.

    With your "pen name" iOSJake... I don't know that you have a suitable ipad... Simply load the free utility for the apple store and config airport away.

  • How can I configure my Time Capsule (its predecessor) as an extension of WIFI network?

    I have the previous model of the time Capsule and a new version and two MAC computers. I want to use the Capsule of ancient times to extend my WIFI network. I have a MAC with a new current version of time Capsule in the center of my house. I have a second MAC set up with an earlier version of a time Capsule in my office. I want to expand the network from the center of my home, further, beyond my office. Anyone know what I need to do? THX!

    Place the old TC in the same room as each other.

    Do a factory reset.

    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.

    Open airport on the Mac utility and configure the old TC... it will automagically want to extend wireless.

    Complete the installation, then move the TC to a suitable place where it picks up good signal from the main TC. There is no need to a position of bad signal... then place it where the speed is close to full... but then covers your current area of dark (wifi not light).

    Fact... Voila... easy as pie.

  • Utilities airport shows a triangle Orange on Time Capsule, Wifi working

    Recently, my Time capsule is showing an orange triangle in AP-utility. By clicking on it, it shows the message: AP Time capsule found, with the possibility to forget.

    Time capsule shows a steady green light. Wifi is good job and my two other airports Express are being lit in the utility.

    I've read other discussions with similar problems. So, I did the following things:

    (1) soft reset of time capsule,

    (2) Changed link local IPv6 settings

    (3) disabled firewall

    (4) settings saved and restarted.

    It did not help for long after a few minutes the triangle orange has shown once again.

    In Time Machine, time capsule HD is not recognized or the other.

    But the wifi works perfectly.

    Please notify.

    I think that the problem is resolved.

  • New configuration of Time capsule

    New time Machine 2 TB, put up with WAG54G2 linksys Cisco Modem, what are the correct setting?

    I currently have the time in bridge mode machine, to remove the effects of double NAT. Can I put my modem in Bridge mode and time machine handle everything? If so, how? Step by step instructions would be appreciated as I am a novice touch.

    New time Machine 2 TB, put up with WAG54G2 linksys Cisco Modem, what are the correct setting?

    Mode bridge on the Time Capsule is the correct setting to use with the Linksys WAG54G2 you have from the Linksys device is not only a modem, but a complete network and router.

    Can I put my modem in bridge mode

    It would be a matter of your Internet Service provider... is they indicated the Linksys device you... or for the support of Linksys people.

    The manual for the WAG54G2 I downloaded did not indicate all the options for "modem only" mode, or bridge, even in advanced settings is possible and probable that the WAG54G2 do not have this type of capability.

    If you find your ISP or Linksys support, there is a menu 'hidden' for other advanced options on the WAG54G2 allowing the device to set up as only a simple bridge mode modem, the next question to ask would be if your ISP requires PPPoE or PPPoA authentication.

    The time Capsule will support PPPoE... but not PPPoA... then you would have a very clear understanding of the requirements of service from your ISP in this regard.

    It's a simple matter of reconfiguring the time Capsule to act as the router of the network if it turns out that the WAG54G2 can be configured as a simple modem... and our ISP requires PPPoE authentication for their service.  We will cross that bridge when and if we get to it.

  • Could not find the Time Capsule for Time Machine backup drive

    My iMac is running El Capitan and Time Machine is unable to find the Time Capsule backup drive.  I blew the backup several times in hopes that it will fix the problem.   The only thing I found which will allow a return to the top is to unplug the Time Capsule and plug it in again.  The work around works only once, then it's back to "can't find the backup disk.

    For anyone a cela or similar questions are you go in your Utilities folder (in your applications folder) and run the utility airport to see what he says about the disks attached. This cannot work for the readers of time capsule Apple rather than third party readers who have been designated as the backup time drives machine.

  • Windows 7 does not connect to Time Capsule

    I have 2 computers connected to Apple's Time Capsule.  I have the HP laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 with all updates trendy top of x 64 and it is able to connect to the Wi - Fi router part and connect to the part of the external hard drive to a hard drive wireless to save.  I was able to do this with Norton 360 installed and running in the background and with it uninstalled the system and had no problems.

    I have a MacBook Pro that has Mac OS X 10.6.4 with all updates and Windows 7 on a partition separated with all updates.  On the side of Mac OS X can connect to the internet through wireless using Time Capsule can be accessed on the side of Time Capsule hard drive and use it as an external hard drive wireless for the back upward.  Windows 7 can only use Time Capsule to connect to wireless internet, but it won't find the game hard drive so I can use it as an external hard drive wireless for the back upward.  I tried this with uninstalled Norton 360 and Norton 360 running in the background.  I noticed that whenever I try and log in to the side of the Time Capsule hard drive Windows 7, it tells me:

    Of airPort Base Station Agent

    Could not connect to the drive. Make sure NetBIOS is turned on, and then try again (53).

    Time Capsule has all the updates that he needs and I can't make it work.  This has something to do with me not being is not able to connect to a system running Windows 7 and the other using Vista not being able to connect through a home network to connect to each other to share files.

    How can I fix it

    Take a look at this thread of Discussion Apple about the same error:

    http://discussions.info.Apple.com/message.jspa?MessageID=10795576

    There is also a very long discussion on Windows 7 and the Time Capsule Apple available here:

    Because it is really directly related to Time Capsule of the Apple, if the link above didn't help I recommend to create a thread in their forums below:

  • Time Machine does not work with Time Capsule, after update of Yosemite to iMac 2011

    My Time Capsule features all work except when trying to access files with Time Machine. It is new and can be linked to an update in Yosemite. Tried rebooting both without success.

    You can mount the drive of TC in the finder?

    The old backup Time Machine may be usable via a direct opening so the sparsebundle to give it a try.

    If not, do you want to achieve... you want to migrate your files? Have you tried the migration assistant?
