• Remote Access Time capsule with windows 10 pc

  I have my time Capsule connected to the router of the provider internet I easily access from inside my home network and with a Mac, I'm not able to access remotely with my Windows 10 PC and my iPad Time Capsule (I only am not able to Set up hold File Manager app). My internet provider to put in place a connection port on the router and I tried several TCP 20/21/80/8080/548 ports without success.

  Any suggestion wich port to set?

  Thank you

  You will need a computer that uses AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) to access from a remote location Time Capsule.  Windows 10 does not have this feature, so you will not be able to use the time Capsule to access from a remote location using a PC.

  Although it is not officially supported by Apple, you can usually access the time from an iPad Capsule using the navigation application.  The navigation instructions are there, and they do not work for me when I try this:

• Questions of Time Capsule, I have to rename my sparsebundle?

  I recently started having problems with my Airport with Time Capsule, and after doing a bunch of other updates of my system, I wonder if the name of my sparsebundle could ask questions.  A bit of history behind what I have made, please bear with me while I explain all of this.

  I bought my Airport with Time Capsule in November 2014 and it had worked well until February of this year.  We have changed our internet service provider, and the day that we did this, I had to unplugging everything on my desk to reorganize things.  I plugged everything in, my wifi was working fine, and I never had a problem with my Time Capsule, so I don't even think to check it out.  But then I got an alert one day say that my machine has not been saved in 12 days.  I tried to do a backup at this time, but it got stuck in the phase of "Looking for backup drive.  By trial and error, I found if I power cycle my Airport, I can get to find the reader and to make the backup, but it seems to be a temporary solution.  After a day or two or sometimes later that day after that the computer was put to sleep and woke up to the top, he would come back in the phase of 'Search'... ».

  I did some research online, but most of the post I found is from 2008, 2012, etc., which concerned me the info might be exceeded.  At this point, I prefer not to erase my Time Capsule and start over, so I'll try different things to see if I can solve the problem before having the extreme path again.  I ran the utility disk on the sparsebundle several times. The first time that I ran it on the iMac, there was an error, but the second time I ran it, all seemed well.  And I get this error when I backup my iMac and my MacBookPro. Both are set to save in the same time Capsule and it seems to be a problem with real time Capsule machines.

  I've done a lot of research and one of the things I found was that it might be my computer name causing some problems.  My computers have been appointed 'IMac of Lauriena' and ' Lauriena LastName MacBook Pro"(do not put my name in the post, but it's the same number of characters).  I've read since they have spaces and even the quotes could be causing the issues, so I changed the name of the two computers. I have them shortened to "Reenas_iMac" and "Reenas_MacBookPro" (although now I'm wondering if I should get rid of both the underscore character).  I also renamed "Lauriena airport Time Capsule" Time Capsule to "ReenasAirPortTimeCapsule".  After that I renamed the time Capsule, I made sure to enter Time Machine and reselect the drive to use for the backup, because he was looking for that on "Time Capsule of Lauriena airport.

  One of the things I had read was that if you changed the name of your computer, the next time that you have made a backup it would take more time to save and it would also change the name of the sparsebundle to match the computer name.  I wanted to do, since my name sparsebundle imitated my computer before names, which means there are spaces and apostrophes in names.  But to my surprise, the name has not changed. Backups lasted longer than I expected based on what I had read, but the names have remained the same.

  Until today, even with put the computer to sleep all night, the automatic backups seem to work, but I fear the name of the sparsebundle can turn against me. At this point, I'm doing everything I can to avoid future problems, and I hope I do not have to erase my sparsebundles and start over, if possible.  Especially because I get nervous at the idea of not having a backup, even if it's just for a short period of time. If it turns out that I have to do this, I'll do it, but I wanted to see if I had other options.

  So my main question becomes, would the name of my sparsebundle potentially ask questions, and if so, is there a way to change this without remove it and start again?  If it helps, I use an iMac Mid and a MacBookPro 2011 Early 2011, both El Capitan 10.11.2 running. Currently, my sparsebundle names "Of Lauriena LastName MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" and "Lauriena iMac.sparsebundle".

  I'm not loving the idea of change the sparsebundle names...

  I welcome your change of name... I think that this translates into better reliability of network... but the fact is Time Machine is a little tricky beastie and unfortunately to know when it's messed up is often to the point that you want to use.

  My recommend is exactly what you don't want to.

  I'm doing everything I can to avoid future problems, and I hope I do not have to erase my sparsebundles and start over, if possible.

  Because of mutual exclusivity to avoid future problems... and starting over. Your desire is to have your cake and eat it, but one or the other will give way.

  If you want to keep your existing backups... make an archive of airport utility to a correctly formatted disk. Just keep it 3-6 months to accumulate enough history you probably never need.

  Then do a quick erase of the TC and start over. Backups can be done much faster using ethernet... one at a time... and there is no time you will be missing a backup.

  One of the things I had read was that if you changed the name of your computer, the next time that you have made a backup it would take more time to save and it would also change the name of the sparsebundle to match the computer name.

  Just to explain this... The first part is just... a backup should take a long time because it checks the files...

  The second part is not correct... TM cannot change the name of the sparsebundle to match the name... What I expected it to do in most cases, is start a new backup. Often, it's there for that... I tested it and found that it has begun a new backup... but by design, TM does NOT use the name of the computer... It is related to the UUID of the disc.

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

  Read great Pondini KB if you want to better understand.

  IMHO, if it's using the existing backup... then the change of name of the computer was not relevant... and backups should go... but my confidence in TM is reduced.

  Since you seem concerned to have good backups... Let me suggest a dual approach. Keep running TM as you are... It does a good job of incremental backups.

  But download Carbon Copy clone (it of about $40 and covers multiple computers in your household). You can trial for a month to see if you really like it. Create a clone bootable on USB plugged into your computer, you need to separate those for computers... but it doesn't have to be a small disc auto powered of the same capacity as the startup disk. (or larger than files with a little space) for units 1 to are fine, unless that is your Mac has Monster drives.

  Then the trial a boot from the clone... Hold down the option key when the computer is booting and select the USB drive... and you know after a few minutes you have a completely viable functional backup. All your files will be there and everything work exactly as before... because he is a true clone.

• New connection airport Time Capsule with others

  Quick question I have a new airport Time Capsule. I'm trying to connect my 2 extremes of 2 airport with the new unit. They are in 2 different places in the House, I see them in my utility, but they're more connected... Lost... Help?

  Are you using ethernet to connect or wireless extend?

  When you installed the TC you replace an existing router that used EI or did you do a clean install?

  If you want to extend wireless simply reset the two AE at the factory and start on with installation... they should auto select this option to expand the TC in wireless... but you must start with them the two reset otherwise it will mess up the network.

• How to use Time Capsule with Time Machine and no Wifi

  Situation.  Late 2009 iMac with OSX 10.7.5.  Used Airport Extreme since purchase in early 2010.  Use a modem cable from Arris SB 6141.  Decided to upgrade to 2 TB Time Capsule.  And the problems started.  I put TC in place... Finally, with the help of the people of this forum (thanks).  Transport CANADA does not have the internet connection to the Modem.  New to this forum I discovered that the TC does not like the SB6141.  So I put the Airport Extreme in the network and work like a charm wireless.

  Now, how can I connect the TC to the network or the Mac to use the part Time Machine?

  I tried to put the TC in Airport Extreme with an ethernet cable.  First, the iMac would not recognize the local network by removing printers and the other external USB drive; and my TV got confused on what wifi network with the same name in which to connect.

  Before I hit the reset button on the time Capsule I tried to ask what would be the right steps.

  Thanks to the folks on this forum. Thanks for your help.  Hope you all a good holiday this year.

  You should not have really big questions on Lion.

  Connect the WAN of TC port on the ethernet port LAN AE.

  Configure the TC in bridge. I disable the wireless to EI and let it run in the TC... that's much better work in this configuration.

  The Mac that will backup must really be connected to the TC in direct wireless or ethernet... This will help loads.

  The wireless work better on the TC... If it isn't, then you can swap EI... but I'd be surprised if that was the case.

• Use Time Capsule with common carrier online

  Hello

  I have a new House that has pre wired Ethernet, but I don't know where the switch is. I have a lot of smart devices in my house, including the bulbs of Hue, Thermostats Ecobee, door to Garage Chamberlain, etc. as well as the different computers, tablets, etc.

  I had trouble getting good signal wireless in all the corners of the House. I use a current gen router Apple time capsule 3 to AC (ME182LL/A) and a modem docsis 3.0 NETGEAR (CM500-100NAS). I have a Mac boy, so I have an iMac, Mac mini and MacBook, but also have a Windows work laptop.

  To expand the network I use Apple Airport expresses (MC414LL/A). I have 4 of them. They are working very well that WAP at the bridge and extend the Time Capsule network. However, as to be expected with a comprehensive wireless network, they abandon signal intermittently and may be slow.

  What I would like to make a way to use airports as an extension of a wired network. I tried to use the netgear 500 (XAVB5421) power adapter to provide Ethernet over power line to the airports, but when I plug the time capsule in the supply of source line, it ends by disabling the internet entire feed of time capsule, I can't understand (maybe double NAT, blocking ports may idk). So my other option that I would use the pre wired Ethernet, but I'm not familiar with the use and installation.

  Could someone help with?

  Thank you

  I have a new House that has pre wired Ethernet, but I don't know where the switch is.

  Ethernet is the right way to do it... in a new home ring people who have done the wiring and ask where is the login Panel.

  It could be a simple patch on the wall or in the garage or under the stairs... There may not be a switch at all... After all it must be powered and I doubt that there would be no access.

  Do not use adapters EOP when ethernet is available... He is immensely higher... but the Express may not be the best units to extend with... You may have to them in hard mode...

  What I would like to make a way to use airports as an extension of a wired network. I tried to use the netgear 500 (XAVB5421) power adapter to provide Ethernet over power line to the airports, but when I plug the time capsule in the supply of source line, it ends by disabling the internet entire feed of time capsule, I can't understand (maybe double NAT, blocking ports may idk).

  Please post how you express installation from airport utility... Give us some screenshots and we can tell you.

  It is likely that you express to extend wireless installation... the minute you plug by ethernet (EOP is still just slower ethernet)... cause you a network loop that will crash your network... The express should be in Bridge mode and together to create a wireless network.

• The fastest way to remove a sparsebundle on a Time Capsule with two top backups

  I have a time Capsule 2 TB that I currently use to save an iMac and a MacBook Pro.  I recently bought a new iMac and I decided to go back on this new computer. I moved all the files I need and installed all the apps that I used on the other.  After spending a day and a half, make a backup of the sparsebundle on my old iMac (just in case), I am now ready to get rid of this sparsebundle out of my Time Capsule, so I can start back up my new iMac to it.

  Because I also backup my MBP on it, erasing everything simply is not an option at this point. I need to be able to just remove this a sparsebundle, which, of course, must be huge... I think that it is about 890 concerts at this stage.

  I have been looking online for the best way to delete the sparsebundle, but don't know which method is the best and most of the answers are from 2011 or 2012, so I want to be sure there is not something new, I should try.

  Here are the options that I've seen, and I hope someone can point me to one that suits, or give me another suggestion. If it happens that the best, it takes days to complete, so be it, but it would be good to know that the time goes in.

  1. Change the extension of the sparsebundle and then delete this file. This seems little risk to me, but maybe I'm overthinking it. One person said they changed from iMacbackup.sparsebundle to just iMacbackup.s and was able to remove it.  It would actually remove faster? Do not change the size, so I don't know how it works.
  2. Mount the sparsebundle by using the IP address and then delete the sparsebundle like that. This was part of a post that said in fact the best way to remove first had to access it through Windows Explorer, and then delete it. This isn't an option for me, so in the comments I post, I saw someone say to connect via SMB and delete this one. Someone said he worked within a minute for them, but I see not a lot more answers.
  3. Display content of the sparsebundle, then delete the contents of the folder-Band 5, 000-8, 000 at the same time. I just watched showed a guy do that but it took something like 4 days to remove them, and he had to reload between each 5 000 videos a YouTube it deleted. Currently I have about 102 000 items in my folder of bands, so if it takes a day to remove 10,000 of them (according to, I'm looking for both ridiculously long to remove these.)

  Alternative suggestions that someone has more would be welcome.  I just want to be able to get this old one deleted and start backup to my new one, without losing my MBP backup.

  I also found this link, which speaks by using Terminal Server.

• Load new Time Capsule with backup t. m.?

  I have an end 2013 27 "iMac running OS X El Capitan, version 10.11.6, with a new 3 TB Time Capsule. In the process of upgrading my original model A1470, 2 TB Time Machine awkwardly, I managed to detach the tablecloth of the end circuit rather than simply ripped hard drive making rubber on the 2 TB hard drive itself. This time Capsule is actually useless now. I installed the original drive work with my TM backups in a USB 3 enclosure with the intention of transferring its contents to my new Time Capsule. When the original Monte drive, it shows as 3 (?) partitions, labeled: APconfig; APswap; and the data. 'Data' has 84,46 GB of data in files "Backups.backupdb" and "ShareRoot. The other partitions are essentially empty-APconfig with a single file "AFP.reconect_keys" to 24 bytes and a total content of 15.6 MB and APswap without files containing 15.3 mb.

  How to use this original TC hard disk to load my backups Time Machine on my NEW 3 to Time Capsule? I only discovered how to load a T.C. from file to archive hard disk, but not the original files of TC.

  Any ideas will be appreciated.

  What you are, indeed, now doing is to copy/move an existing Time Machine backup 'network', a local disk to another drive (aka, your new Time Capsule) network.

  Basically, Time Machine uses a different backup format with readers local vs. network drives. You now have a backup of "network format" on a local disk. Time Machine will not be able to use this backup 'local', as it is, because it is not in a format that is "local." Sorry if that sounds confusing. It was confusing for me just to write it.

  A method that would work would be to clone the backup, but it only works when the two backups will be 'local format' ones.

  Worst case, I recommend that you come to start a new backup and use the one as archive.

• Time capsule with modem/router

  I just got the phone with Apple support and they told me that time capsule will not work itself but he need a modem/router REQUIRED to work all time capsule. Is this true? Time Capsule is a modem/router. Why on earth someone would buy something for $ 600, which is not even replace the old modem router? I spend $ 200 on a 3 TB hard drive and do the same work. Please answer.

  Time Capsule is a modem/router.

  No, this is not correct.

  The Capsule is a router only. It doesn't have a modem on board. If you have a Time Capsule and you want to be able to access the Internet, you will need a modem to connect to the time Capsule.

  More providers of Internet services (ISP) provide modems/routers and modems to their customers to connect to their service. Please contact your ISP and ask them what they recommend.

• Time capsule with backup HD on a MBP with SSD?

  Hello world

  I recently bought a Time Capsule from Apple and saved my full 500 GB hard drive which is on my Macbook Pro 13 "(modèle fin 2011)." I was wondering what I need and what will happen if I buy a Macbook Pro the retina which will have an SSD (probably more small size), but also a different logic board?

  -Is the capsule will be recognized by the new Macbook Pro retina and I will be able to continue to save on it, to add?

  -I will be able to access the files that I backed up the MBP Late 2011 by accessing the retina MBP with time Capsule?

  There's something else I should be aware of the based on the experience of each?

  Thanks a lot for your help and your advice!

  On the first startup of the new machine, the installation wizard will ask you if you want to move your user name for the new Machine. Highly recommended for a transition seamles.

  From then after that after a reboot or two and the first time that you start the TM/TC upward it will ask you if you want to "inherit" the TM. Yes

  

• How to access a locked, recovered disc Time Capsule under Windows?

  I have a Time Capsule that broke 4th generation, but the hard drive was fine. Unfortunately, I have important documents I need to access the hard disk. It has been previously locked using Time Capsule.

  I'm now trying to access the hard disk, which I plugged it into my PC (Win7). The disk appears in disk management, but I can't access them in Windows Explorer (probably because it is locked). How can I do this?

  Thanks in advance!

  Are required files part of a Time Machine backup? If so, they are encrypted?

  If they are not part of a Time Machine backup, you say that they are not available on a Windows 7 PC and they appear locked? Note: The time Capsule's internal hard drive is formatted in HFS +. Windows PC cannot natively read these readers and may be the reason why the drive appear locked.

• Replacement of an old time capsule with a new

  I saw a few posts on this subject but they don't help me, but then again I'm not an expert! What I wanted to do, is to set up my new 2 TB Time Capsule (the high) using all the old settings. I'm not talking to duplicate the time capsule data; I'm happy to go back on it. Many people advise new network from scratch, but we have hordes of families who visit most other devices on the network enabled (like nests) who have been extremely painful to put in place and I can't face that again! I searched the internet and came across a great video on YouTube that made simple: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VO2tztvb58

  It called an option within the airport most convenient to transfer the parameters of one former airport to another. But no matter how many times I try, I get an error message

  Apple solution seems to be so simple. I do something wrong, maybe in the login sequence, at some point, the airport ask "which network is the existing time Capsule on?" but provides no pull-down or options to nominate for. Then I went to the network Wifi high to the right of my Mac and selected icon that interests you and that moved on the next screen.

  Can anyone offer advice or should I give up and start from scratch?

  Thanks in advance

  Connect your computer to the TC using ethernet... you change wireless wireless and guess what... you're sawing off the branch on which you sit.

  If your computer does not have ethernet or you have no computer in the House that still has the port most important in the world... so that you never get yourself backed into a corner wireless even once, then buy a bolt of lightning for the ethernet card.

  Alternative method.

  This is not 100% kosher, but should work.

  On the old TC export the configuration.

  

  My screen is a bit old, but it should always be there.

  You must be within the facility of the TC to do... then click the old TC icon and then edit... then export...

  On the use of new TC import a Configuration file.

  It works for most. FOR THE MOST PART.

  As a BTW... your name is terrible.

  All new Mac OS since Mavericks use the default SMB protocol.

  SMB has much stricter rules that AFP ever made... This is not your fault... This is apple not to repair their airport for the automatic naming utility is not the long names with spaces and characters not compliant... the apostrophe is illegal... you will notice that if you install the disk in the finder, that apostrophe, and spaces are removed from the name... but over the long names will interrupt the.

• need help to set up Time Capsule with hub of sky

  Hi, I bought time Capsule and followed the instructions re. Connection cable internet hub in wide band directly on port WAN on TC. And yet nothing is happening outside orange flashing and message of airport utility saying it could not connect to the internet. I bought an Ethernet cable, just in case and tried to connect it to LAN to LAN, and I was able to create a 'network' but always seeing flashed. Can anyone help? Thank you!!

  El Capo can be really rotten networking.

  The skyhub is a router... I think it's okay... If you connect a computer directly into it, you should have internet?

  The TC may work very well in this configuration.

  Ethernet connector of skyhub LAN WAN TC as you did originally... correctly.

  So I highly recommend ethernet to the computer... because it helps no end. And even to pass the airport utility to use ethernet instead of wireless.

  Here (if obvious really that you would have ethernet under other Wi - Fi... don't know why I found totally by chance?)

  

  The configuration... make the TC must go to bridge mode...

  It is Off (bridge mode) on the network tab.

  And you need to create a wireless network with a different name to the skyhub.

  You can probably do it manually now without too many problems.

  And even without ethernet connection... Although reliable then ethernet is streets ahead wireless.

  Click on the TC icon in airport utility.

  

  Click on change... at the bottom right on the summary.

  Now you can fix it up. Click on the network and make sure that it says Off (bridge mode) I posted my configuration, but you do not follow that... I just allows you to see where everything is.

  

  Click on wireless and fix that up.

  

  You can even click on the base station and correct the name and the master password... so that all the names are short, without spaces and alphanumeric pure.

  NOT RECOMMENDED APPLE NAMES that are FALSE.

  If you have an ipad/iphone the iOS version of the utility is often better to get this right than the Mac version... particularly in the later version of the Mac OS.

• question of Time capsule

  My time capsule shows a flashing orange light.  When I disconnect my wireless router and disconnect time capsule he does not restore the time capsule.  I keep having a flashing orange light.

  Oddly, I can still access all the files stored on this drive, I just can't tell if it successfully connects to my home network.  And, it saved correctly automatically today periodically throughout the afternoon.

  I am running OSX 10.9.5.

  Any suggestions on how to reset it without losing all my backups?

  On your Mac... Please go to Finder > Applications > utilities > utility AiPort

  Click on the image of the time capsules

  In the window that appears, look for the status

  What is the message next to status?

• Can I play my library iTunes located on Time capsule with an Ipod touch? If so, how?

  I transferred my iTunes to the time capsule library and I would like to access it using other iDevices, connected to the network. Which can be and if so, how?

  To not have my macBook pro running all the time then that streaming music. Thank you.

  There is no media extensions in a TC... Apple designed the ipod to read directly from a library... you need a Mac or PC running iTunes for this to work... the library can live on the TC... but you still need a computer that is running.
