Restoration of 132GB Time Capsule to my Mac iTunes

My playlists in iTunes have become corrupt (don't know why).

I need to restore an older copy of iTunes from Time Machine on my Time Capsule.

iTunes is 132GB - is it be possible (and desirable) to restore using a cable to my Mac at the time Capsule, rather than wireless?

Thank you

If you have portable AC and TC is ca version it should be pretty fast... but the ethernet is always better... and if you have older slower equipment then ethernet it will fly.

  • Restore backup to Time Capsule

    I got my iMac reinstalled and at the same time, updated to OS X El Capitan.

    After connecting to the network and my time Machine, I tried to restore the last backup before reinstalling.

    I can connect to my Time Capsule via Time Machine, but trying to open the disk image following warning appears:

    Image: XXX iMac.sparsebundle

    Reason: Resource temporarily unavailable.

    I tried to restart both my iMac and my Time Capsule

    Thank you

    Connect the TC directly on the Mac in ethernet... disable wireless... There still need to be connected to the internet too long that the TC is configured as a router.

    Try again.

    You use migration assistant right?

  • Is it possible for my daughter maintain its programme of Photos on its 3 t Time Capsule? It happened to wide to keep on his Mac laptop.

    My daughter is running out of room on his Mac laptop to store his photos. She still uses iPhotos, so I have him asked to look at pictures. However, we also tried dragging his case iPhotos to 3t Time Capsule that we arrived to appear on his desk. It would not copy. So, first of all it allows Photos on his Time Capsule to use with his iPhone to store his photos? I'm guessing not because I don't think the Time Capsule works on Mac OS X required to run the Photos. I do not know because I have never used a Time Capsule.

    Second, if it works, how can I help him, by telephone, to do.

    Thank you

    Tell him to get an external drive, as Mac OS Extended format if it is pre-formatted not in this way, the library put there, launch iPhoto or pictures with the key Option key, and then choose this library. Once this is done, open the Time Machine system preferences pane, click Options, and remove the external drive from the exclusion list.

    The working copy of the library should not be stored in a Time Capsule; only its backups should be there.

  • New Time Capsule ranging from Windows to Mac with file sharing.

    OK, so we bought a new time capsule recently and my family migrates slowly over Apple products.

    My question comes from having moved all our old saved files from various sources during the share of time capsule. Currently, the file system is FAT32 because that's what it was by default and I don't see an option to adjust it.

    "My wife has a time machine backup works fine already on the device, but when she opens the 'data' /: Time Capsule" on the Mac, we don't see any of these files that I put in there. What should we do, she can be seen on Mac.

    What OS is the Mac running?

    Can you please show me what you can see on the Mac... because the screenshot of Windows with all the deleted folder names is not helpful at all.

    I assume you can open all windows files... did you create the folder in windows?

    Let me suggest that you create the folder in the Mac. then copy the files through him, to the windows machine.

    Apple uses file permissions, and permissions have become significantly more restrictive of the end. Windows seems to ignore... but you might need repair permissions until it works.

    NOTE... the appearance of the windows FAT32 is not real... It's because of the way windows reads the network of the TC function... the drive is not formatted FAT32 in the TC... It is HFS +, a Mac format... offered by SMB (windows network blocks) which windows reads with FAT32.

  • Time capsule backup dedicated

    I'll put up a new Mac Pro and want to use Time Capsule as a wired dedicated backup device.  On my Mac, I have a 1 TB internal drive will be used only for the application and software work areas.  I have a 4 TB external drive, where all my user files reside.  I want to hardwire connect Time Capsule to my Mac and use it only to back up the drive internal.  I have a separate drive of 8 TB I'll use a program like ChronoSync to back up my drive of the 4 TB user.  I use one of the Ethernet ports on my Mac to connect to my home network.  I have an Ethernet port open on my Mac.  Can I use the Ethernet Mac port available and connect Time Capsule for the Mac as a dedicated backup device?

    The Capsule connects to your modem or modem router using a wired Ethernet cable connection. Connect the modem into the "O" on the Time Capsule WAN port and configure time Capsule to create a wireless network.

    If you don't need wireless, it can be turned off once the time Capsule has been implemented to work with your modem or router/modem.

    Your Mac can then go back to Ethernet connection time Capsule cable from the Mac to one of the three ports LAN <>- on the back of the time Capsule.  Don't forget to turn off the radio on the Mac to make sure that the backup will take place via the Ethernet connection.

  • My Airport Time Capsule can act as a WIRELESS access point

    Hello.

    I brought a Time Capsule with my Mac Pro. It worked well since yesterday.

    I have set up the time Capsule as a WIFI, bypass at my local network access point. There is a router (cable) works at home.

    It's my Mac Pro AirPort Utility and my iPhone, my Time Capsule is displayed with an exclamation point saying "device not found". I can't connect to the disk on this subject by afp share, or smb. Time Machine function is gone too. He failed trying to connect to the share drive from another computer connected to the time Capsule by cable network.

    But at the same time, WiFi works well.

    I tried to recycle energy. Sharing disk will be available. But if I start the Time Machine backup, it will not be a few seconds.

    Any idea?

    Thank you.

    There are several posts here related the issue.

    Luckily, you have set up your new Time Capsule for Back to My Mac (BTMM)?

    If so, the 'temporary' solution is to delete/disable the option of the CCMM, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the base and then station, select change.
    • On the tab of the Base Station, go back to the section of my Mac at the bottom of the window.
    • If you have entries here, select it and click then the minus sign "-" button to remove it.
    • Click on update and allow the base station restart.

    If you have not enabled CCMM, we have other options for you to try.

  • Hanging Time Capsule with cable will use less data?

    I have an airport Time Capsule 2 TB I use as a wireless router with my internet go beyond satellite service. I blow through my allocation of wireless data and I was wondering if it hang on my Time capsule to my Mac using a dsl cable would use less data?

    First the cable would be ethernet.

    Second, I assume that you are concerned about your Time Machine backup... but they are local network and that you do not use your allowance of the internet... so plug the TC by ethernet will not change the use of the internet... It is only if you have something that is initially high downloads... This can happen sometimes... but apple built in no mechanism to track usage... Indeed, they have removed completely since the last TC SNMP functionality and AE... in the view of many here... an indication that Apple believes that everyone has speed unlimited and unlimited broadband internet bandwidth and did not much care if you don't.

  • You can access time capsule iTunes library using the Airport express

    Hello

    I I have an Apple Airport express and listen to music from my iTunes library on my MacBook Pro. I have just bought a Time Capsule from Apple and saved my MacBook to this. I would like to listen to the music of my Time Capsule, as is always on.

    Anyone know if this is possible?

    Thank you

    Unfortunately, your new Time Capsule is not an iTunes server. This is, in itself, it can not stream audio files stored on the internal hard drive to an AirPort Express or Apple TV point. You will still need to use iTunes on your MBP to do. You would just point to the media library on your Time Capsule in the case of iTunes. (Note: However, if your iTunes library is stored on the Time Capsule as a Time Machine backup, this no longer works.) "It will take a stand-alone copy of the one that was on your MacBook.)

  • Restore from Time capsule, but new files on the target machine, won't be wiped out

    I'm trying to move files between two MacBook, however, I have been using the new MacBook for a while (like a year) and a lot of files/images/person of the most recent data on it (dataset B for example).

    So I recently did a full backup on my older MacBook (say A Dataset).  I wonder if I do a "restore" time capsule backup (data set A) against my new MacBook, the new dataset would B be destroyed?

    My desired outcome is to have the dataset A + B all in my new MacBook.

    DataSet B backup, restoration of A DataSet, then restore DataSetB.

    Please, do not restore OS X from A DataSet.

  • Restore the missing applications after Time Capsule

    I just had to restore my 2010 Mac Book Pro using Time Machine and a recent full backup on my Time Capsule.

    There are a lot of important apps now gone, including the App Store, Safari, disk utility and many others.

    I have considered installing Sierra to correct this, but cannot access the app store via Chrome or Firefox

    I have all my documents, etc., on the Time Capsule so able to perform a clean installation of Sierra, if I was able to download

    I run the front last Sierra OS, well that may not even check that, as clicking on 'about my Mac', produces nothing at all...

    Thank you

    Yes, clean, install the OS then migrate your files using the migration wizard.

    It's actually the best way to install an operating system.

    And next time you want to make a backup that works... use a Chronosync, Carbon Copy Cloner or superduper etc.. Time Machine is not reliable.

  • I'm trying to restore a backup of Time Capsule, but it is bigger than my hard drive. No idea how to do it?

    I did all my backups on TIme Capsule. My hard drive crashed while I replaced it. I am now trying to restore my latest backup, but the message I get is that my backup is bigger than my hard drive. Any solution for this?

    Thank you!

    Sorry, but you will not be able to fully restore from a Time Machine backup except if your Mac has a hard drive that is big enough to cope.

    If you can not install a larger hard drive in the Mac, then your only other option would be to use the Migration Wizard on a Mac and only fly over the Documents and other data... not the Applications and other system files.

  • Restore backup after the reset Time Capsule (1st generation) using Windows PC

    I apologize if this question is somewhere already. I tried to find an answer and I've seen similar discussions but not exactly what I need.

    A bit of history... The location is a small school with about 10 cameras, its network systems, point of sale, cloud networked storage, etc. Was asked by the owner to create or activate a Guest WiFi SSID. They said he worked at the same time, but some work was done by a previous technician and they lost the WiFi of comments.

    So I used the Airport utility to access the time Capsule. However, after the change to the next level (enable the public IP sharing? maybe?), he ended up destroying the entire network, as in nothing was back upward when the utility scanned for devices. Even the Time Capsule was not recognized by the utility. I ended up doing a hard reset on the Time Capsule and do my best to manually configure the device again, even though I was not initially designed the network. I have also discovered that 1st generation Time Capsules have no comments WiFi capabilities.

    To make a long story short (too late... "I know sorry..) .. I got most of the features, functions, etc. on the network back where they were before, with the exception of camera systems and a network storage device active cloud to the owner's House.  What I would like to know is... Since then, I understand that a hard reset does NOT erase the backup or other data on the shared disk in the time Capsule... is there an easy way to restore the settings of all of the time Capsule before the problem occurred?  I would need to do this using a Windows computer.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated. What I'm trying to avoid the most is having to reset all the cameras, which are upstairs, hard to reach areas. I guess that people who were previously assigned on the cameras must still be there. If only I could get the Capsule of time exactly where it was before he went down, which would allow me to save a lot of time and frustration.

    You can also (2nd choice)... If there is a simple way to detect the active network cameras and other devices on the Time Capsule and pull the IP out of them, that would be helpful as well.

    Thanks in advance for answers!

    You have my sympathy all...

    Been to this place before today... and I always get myself into it by pure stubbornness... I should just walk on some of these jobs and tell them too hard...!

    What you had to do was to export the configuration before you start playing. Without export of the configuration there is not much hope of healing to less than the previous tech saved a configuration to the unit... This example gets much delicate.

    The TC is actually able to contain several configurations... There is a good chance, however, that wipe you the.

    Anyway... coming to the serious Tin. (same version on Mac and PC utility should work the same).

    Here's my TC who foolishly a reset.

    When I do something... first manual configuration, I wonder is to revert to the previous version.

    You have done or could you saved the previous settings as a profile... I hope that you did... in the hope...!

    IF so, you have a saved profile.

    In the area of the top menu go in manage profiles.

    Now, if you are lucky or did the job just last time... by accident... you'll have a saved profile... Just click back.

    If nothing is there, or it's current settings... Sorry, but you didn't know something was there... and you cannot was expected to know the trouble you would get yourself in.

    If you have changed a setting in the TC of the bridge in router mode...

    (enable the public IP sharing? maybe?)

    Getting back to what it was... mode bridge being the most common.

    At the bridge of the TC does control most things... and you need to return to the main router.

    If the TC kicking upward a stench to return to the bridge, reset it simply still once and then bridge will work... It would be useful to loads to remember what was the setting... just to see the bridge takes the TC of the equation to know where the cameras are.

    If the cameras are on static IP, they will respond to a ping scanner... If the primary router is configured for a standard range of IP addresses... 192.168.1.xxx some.

    Then the TC in bridge must have also taken an ip address in this range and the cameras (Ethernet or wireless)?

    I hope that ethernet, but if they were using the TC as a wireless access point, unless you know exactly the SSID wireless as it was in the past then you do not have this info...

    Look at any computer, they have in the building that was running wireless and watch all the SSID that they use... one of these is likely the TC and you can restore this name.

    Or drop a camera... and ethernet allows to connect to him... and find the ssid, that it's been fixed... redefine the TC on this name (SSID) wireless security... all cameras must be able to connect to it... and you can then restore the entire system by connecting to the IP address that will be displayed in the list on the main router.

    Good luck.. as says Han Solo... you'll need!

    My computer with two hard drives and 2 starting systems has the car crash in the solid state. When I got the new drive and tried to restore from time capsule, I lost some data. How can I see what backups are on the time capsule? My laptop is also saved to the time capsule. Everything is in 'Data' when I look through the Airport utility. I think that the information that I've lost are still there since I was a Capsule 3 to.

    Time Machine backup to a sparsebundle.

    The sparsebundle will use the share name of computer. So, it should be obvious who is your Macbook and that is your Macpro.

    Open the sparsebundle in Finder and keep open the subfolders until you get to the backup of each separate hard drive...

    You has of course set the exclusion in Time Machine?

    By default, Time Machine will exclude your second drive unless you have included it. Did you?

    Once you get to this level during the backup, you can do a full restore manually whenever you want.
