Problem to connect a Macbook Air to Time Capsule

I have a MacBook Air with 10.11.2. The TC I have 695 GB of 998 GB available.

I tried several times to Run Time Machine on the TC. First it has green light in the airport and on the hardware tool, then a warning sign appears in the tool of the airport.

No backup copy is made.

All solutions?

Anders

When you open TimeMachinePreferences, have you assigned as the backup drive TC?, if so, delete and assign it again.

  • 2011 13 "MacBook Pro, Apple Time Capsule and HP C6180 printer problem


    You try to connect the printer to your Time Capsule or via USB to a Mac and share it or via the port on the Time Capsule or via Ethernet USB cable on the Time Capsule?

    I recommend Wired Ethernet to the time Capsule, but if it's too far, wireless is the next best thing.  Here's how to connect wirelessly:

    On the front of the printer: Setup > network > reset default network

    Also on the front of the printer: Setup > network > Wireless Assistant - follow signs

    Finally, each of the Mac, restore the print system:

    -Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    -Right (control) click inside the box that lists your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign + to add again. Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

  • connection to the internet using time capsule

    I have problems connecting to the internet using time capsule. It detects my wireless network but will not connect to internet. I run ipconfig/all and it comes up with media disconnected. If I put any security on my wireless network, it finds the network and go on the internet with no problems.

    Thanks for the help in advance

    Hello Pudgex76,

    I suggest looking on the forums of Apple for more information if necessary:
  • My verse ATT modem (non apple devices to use this modem} is connected to the ATT line, Time Capsule (iPhones, Macs Time Capsule use) via ethernet Uverse.) Non apple devices can collect data from iPhones or Mac using the time Capsule?

    My verse ATT modem ({use of devices not apple wifi of this modem} is connected to the ATT line, Time Capsule (iPhones, Macs use the wifi of the time Capsule) and connect to the Uverse modem via ethernet.)

    Both devices are set to the highest security and each uses separate passwords.

    Non apple devices can collect data from iPhones or Mac using the time Capsule?

    With a bit of work by someone who knows how to do such things, not Apple computers could read some files on the Mac if file sharing is configured on the network... devices non-Apple and... He knew the device passwords or administrator for Macs.

    Mac could also play the files on other Macs if file sharing has been implemented and the device password or admin was known.

    If you ask if a PC can read the files on the Time Capsule, the answer is Yes, without doubt, assuming that the PC knew the password of device for the time Capsule.

  • problem sending files for MacBook Air via WiFi analyzed

    I have an Officejet Pro8600 Plus and the interface is via wifi for my MacBook Air. I am running OSX 10.9.1.

    When the document or photo is scanned, it looks good in the HP control window. I can change the functions of the analysis. When I type sent by using the button on the HP screen, it sends only the left 1/2 of the scan, and it is amplified.

    I tried all settings to save the document and the scanner. The only one who seems to be the computer's analysis of general use.

    He did it since about September works.

    I found another setting on my icon of the HP scan dock that works with fewer steps than the capture of scan/Image of Apple.

    The parameter is called general purpose. It gives the same picture with all the editing options available before the analysis is sent to the computer. This little less practice with other presets are included but still retains my scan at least no.

  • iPhone cannot connect to the Internet via time capsule

    I have a current execution capsule 7.7.7 time. IPhones in my house can't get internet service when it is connected to the time capsule. My iPad, I tap on it now, can get internet time capsule service. My Mac can connect. I restarted the capsule of time with my modem cable many times. My passwords are correct.

    I also have a smart Vizio TV that does not connect to the Internet. This is true with wifi and also with a wired connection to the time capsule.

    I don't know what the cause of the problem. Any help will be appreciated.

    He has worked in the past and now could not or never worked?

    Apple routers can sometimes decide autonomously switch to bridge mode. If your cable modem is not a router, you MUST have the apple router... TC in your case DHCP and NAT mode.

    If you have not done before you reset the TC at the factory and re-do the installation. Here are my recommendations.

    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.

    The installer the TC.

    Then redo the configuration of the computer that you want to use for TM using Airport utility.

    1. the use of very short names... NO APPLE RECOMMENDED names. Without the space and pure alphanumeric characters.

    for example TCgen5 for the base station and the name of the TCwifi wireless.

    If the wireless is still an issue defined wireless names like TC24ghz and assigned the 5 GHz other name... eg.TC5ghz.

    Finally, use fixed channels in 2.4 ghz... try 11, 9 and 6, in that order.

    (leave the security for a few minutes and see if that makes a difference).

    For iphone and TV with problems in your Setup program ensure that the TC is NAT and DHCP... try to use a different such as google public DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

    2. use all passwords also consistent with 1. but maybe a little longer. IE 8 and 20 characters of mixed cases and numbers... no alphanumeric non-caracteres.

    ** 3. If the TC is router, you can ignore this point. It is only a problem when the TC is bridged.

    If ensure that the TC is always the same IP address... you will need to do this on the main router using a dhcp reservation... or a bit more complex setup by using the static IP address in the TC.

    Ignore this point if you don't understand it... after the return if you drop questions.

    4. be sure that IPv6 is set correctly in the computer. IE link-local only for ethernet or wireless depending on whether you are using. Car is not good enough.

    Tell us which modem cable, you have, make and model please?

    The TC has problems with some popular brands... one of the SB series a modem port is malfunctioning.

  • drive external hard connected via usb hub powered Time Capsule guard fall...

    Hello.

    Try using a player external 3.5 "connected via USB hub powered to my Time Capsule to serve as a backup Time Machine secondary.

    When I connect the external hard drive, it turns out, and everything seems good (Yes it is correctly formatted). I see the external hard drive in my time machine preferences panel and also the desktop browser window, etc..

    After selecting the drive hard as the second backup TM, I start TM. After a few minutes the backup fruitbodies. Audit of airport utility, the drive no longer appears in the profile of Time Capsule. I can't turn back the drive without unplugging / plugging the USB cord. I went to HD (WD green 4to) and HGST 4to - deleted both.

    What is the speaker (the box is powered)? Can you have a USB hub between the external hard drive and time capsuls? Something else?

    Just seems like something somewhere that expire, causing it to drop the connection...

    Thanks for your useful suggestions to fix this!

    Is your TC the Gen5, model AC?

    I must say that your experience is not uncommon. I tested it myself recently and was disappointed in how the poor reliability has been... Although not as bad as yours... in fact cutting in a few minutes to start a backup is ridiculous.

    What is the speaker (the box is powered)?

    Quality of the envelope varies a lot... What is it??

    If this is the typical brand X... Plug it into your Mac. is it reliable?

    Go to your control panel and dig up the actual USB chip used... I don't know if we can help on type a lot. But it helps us determine the fleas are a problem.

    I found the hard drive in the finder to mount helped... not the sparsebundle that must be mounted by Time Machine... but the disk must be mounted in the finder so that you can copy files back to him.

    I start TM. After a few minutes the backup fruitbodies.

    Check in the finder, it has created the sparsebundle and works.

    Can you have a USB hub between the external hard drive and time capsuls?

    It's our usual recommendation... but he won't always help... especially if the USB hub is another brand X...

    Note that all societies are changing USB tokens at the drop of a hat... some seller of a rival company arrives and offers them 1 c off the coast of 1 million chips it is common to spend even in the middle of a race. Even the tenors have no satisfactory fixed hardware...

    The computer has loads of memory... and may contain drivers for hundreds of different USB tokens... but the TC is a very limited amount of space and with questions if the driver is not fair.

    I started a thread for a database just now... has not progressed much.

  • Anyone having problems with the modem from Cox and Time Capsule

    Hello

    Lately my internet falls down every day or every two days with Cox. I have reset the modem, the time capsule, the routers extreme apple, etc. shut down and restart my whole network. I called Cox every two days to refresh the modem.

    I heard that I may need to reconfigure my Time Capsule (acts as a router) to avoid this problem.

    No one knows what to do here?

    Thank you

    Please, try the following:

    Open the AirPort on your Mac utility (Finder > Applications > utilities > AirPort Utility)

    Click on the image of the time Capsule

    Click on edit in the window that appears

    Click on the Internet tab at the top of the next window

    Click the Internet Options button at the bottom of the window

    Make sure that the IPv6 configuration is set to Local link only

    Click on save, if you make changes, then click Update at the bottom right of the window

    When Cox fully implements IPv6 (they are not), you may be able to return to the automatic configuration.
