Time Capsule access denied

Hello.

After upgrading to os x 10.11, airport utility does not recognize the time capsule password so I can't access it and its hard drive.

Can you help me?

Thank you very much

Reset the TC factory and redo the installation.

No files are lost on the drive hard when you do this.

Here is my recommendation for installation in later operating system.

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.

The installer the TC.

And then redo the configuration of the computer with the Mavericks - Yosemite - ElCapo. (MYELCAP)

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 problem is using wireless TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as it also seems to help stop the nonsense. But it can be tried in the second round. IE, plan on a first and second series of changes to fix this... If all goes well... I note other steps can you tour2.

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. But it's important for deriving from intellectual property in all directions when MYELCAP do not remember his name for 5 min after a reboot done for poor network management.

4. check that your share on the computer name does not change... Make sure that it is also in line with the above... short without space and pure alphanumeric... but this change will mess up your TM backup... so be prepared to make a new, full backup. Sorry... keep this one for the second round, if you want to avoid a new backup.

5 attach the TC disc into the computer manually.

In Finder, go, connect to the server in the main menu,

Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever ip of TC is that you made static. It's a default router 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with it unless you know what you're doing).

You can use the name... SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your name of TC... local is the default domain of the TC and does not change.

However the names are not so easy as... the IP address nor reliable. They are not at least not in Yosemite. The field can also be a problem if you are not clogged or wireless directly to the Treasury Board.

6. ensure that IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open network, wireless and Advanced preferences / TCP/IP... and the difficulty of IPv6. link-local only. Do the same for the ethernet if you use it.

It is a lot more jiggery pokery, you can try, but the above is a good start... If you still find not reliable... don't be surprised.

You may need to do more work on the computer itself. for example, to reset the NVRAM/PRAM/SMC... helped some people. A clean installation of the operating system is also useful if you update installed.

  • Sonos access playlists itunes stored on Time Capsule?

    I moved itunes to my file storage folder on my Time Capsule, but when I arrived in Manage > SONOS music library settings, I can not understand how to connect to Time Capsule. I guess I have to select "on a network device such as a network attached storage (NAS)", but I don't know what to do next.

    Help, please!

    Files stored on the Time Capsule, his internal drive or an external drive attached to its USB port, are considered as network drives. If your SONOS application can access network drives, then it should be able to locate these files on the Time Capsule.

    Since I don't have a SONOS device to check, the typical path on the drive would be: \ < name of base station >-< partition or the shared disk name >

    (1) try to reset the password for the utility disk AirPort

    (2) open TextEdit on the Mac and type the password in plain text in an editor window.  This will allow you to ensure that all the keys on the keyboard are recognized.  I've seen cases where passwords fail again and again because of a problem with a wrong key on the keyboard or a habit of typing that makes you believe that you enter the password one way, but the result is something else.  Be able to actually see that typed password allows to check that.

  • 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.

  • Access the 4th generation Time Capsule data remotely in Mac and PC

    Hi all

    I intend to log in case Apple support, but my Service and Support coverage is already expired > _ <.

    Apple PC does not support mobile devices like IOS or android, so in this top, I'll focus on Mac and PC.

    Appreciate if you guys could give me advice on how to set it up properly.

    Material and Configuration:

    -Time Capsule from Apple 4th generation (Firmware version: 7.6.7 last)

    IP: 192.168.1.85

    -Cable for direct LAN connection between TC Apple and ASUS router

    I can access my Apple TC LAN for PC and Mac (for PC, installed the Base Station Agent from the airport, for Mac, I access it via the Finder with credentials for password)

    Tried several times to set the TC to be able to access remotely to both Mac and PC platform, also read many articles, no luck.

    Grateful if someone here can guide me on how to configure it so that it works correctly.

    In your Mac, in the finder, use Go, connect to the server.

    Type of AFP://yourpublicIP

    Download your public IP address of the router asus news... remote WAN you should use DDNS... iCloud is useless... disable in the TC... It does not work behind another router for most people.

    But you must use the public IP address or DDNS address... It is available in the Asus firmware. Best is to buy a static public IP address from your ISP... This is the only reliable method... is worth a bit of money on a dynamic IP.

    This is unnecessary for Windows computer... Access SMB is usually blocked by ISP and Windows does not support AFP.

    Please post your pictures directly here... It's so much easier, then, for us to see.

  • no access to Time Capsule

    Hello, thank you in advance for your help - I really hope that someone can offer helpful advice on this:

    I've had my Time Capsule since 11 end and he has never had a single problem. Nearly a month ago it suddenly started failing to save and to give this message:

    The backup disk image ' / Volumes/Data/nexthursday.sparsebundle ' could not be found (error (null)).

    The password to access the disk, the name is correct, the network works perfectly on all devices, printer is powered AirPrint through it; basically everything kept working as before, it is just the synchronization with the disk that suddenly stopped.

    What happens is I run the backup (right now I keep automatic backups because they are just useless); I chose the disk; type the password, accepted; It will of "Looking for backup disks" to "Preparing for backup"-now this phase lasts too long, in fact it crashes and after a few minutes, I get the "the backup disk image ' / Volumes/Data/nexthursday.sparsebundle ' could not be found (error (null)).»

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem? I'm terribly afraid that I was not able to save anything, for a month now, and I worked madly so I can't afford to lose everything if something happens.

    Info:

    MacBook Pro Late 11 running OS X 10.11.5

    Thank you once again,

    End TC 2011 is now 5years old or very close. (It might even be a hardware version 3).

    The usual recommended the TC lasts 3 years... also he will lose reliability and more than 5 years, I would put replacement as head of list.

    Forget trying to fix it.

    If you are at all concerned about your backups... go out and buy a 2 TB or more large USB key... do it now, do it NOW.

    Which plug in your laptop and the installation disk... must be HFS + formatted.

    I recommend that partition into two parts... Use Carbon Copy Cloner or similar for the partition to boot and TM for the secondary partition. Have a clone bootable your computer will get you upwards and in a few minutes.

    It is faster and more reliable and much cheaper than the replacement of the TC. Expect that Apple will release a new version of the TC before buying again as the current one, we're now > 3 years on the market and the design of 4 years.

    You can continue to use the TC as a router until it dies.

  • Airport Time Capsule 2 TB blocking my internet access.

    There is a wifi wireless in the House. What is the cause?

    Potentially, Yes. Network Wi - Fi of the new Time Capsule can interfere with this other Wi - Fi router. What is the brand and model of the other device? What are your objectives of networking for the Time Capsule (TC)? In other words, do you want to expand the wireless of the other device, or create another Wi - Fi network, or something else?

    You need to tell us a few things.

    1 do you have TC as the only router in the network.

    If this is not the case, the configuration is entirely via the main modem router combo.

    Without a public IP address on the interface wan everything that is your router, you will not be able to access it remotely. For the most part, wireless, satellite or internet shared building will not allow always remote access.

    2. double NAT will never work, so if you already have another router modem the TC must be in the bridge.

    3 Apple offers NO WAY for PC/windows remote access to the TC. Neither iOS btw... the Apple of the only method allows is AFP via a Mac.

    Local people do via SMB to TC port mapping... It is poor and does not always work.

    The tool used for iOS, filebrowser shows how this is possible.

    http://www.Stratospherix.com/support/gsw_timecapsule.php?page=6Remote


    I do not recommend this somehow... It's open ports in a way that reduces your security seriously.

    I repeat... Apple has no PC access.

    4. There is a safe way to do it... buy a vpn router and use before the TC. VPN is recognized global method for secure remote access. Who will work for any device having vpn client available... OpenVPN is the easiest in terms of cost, configuration and security.

    5. There is another method entirely, and that is to store the files you need to join in the cloud... Cloud is a better resource than to use your own router as Pseudo-nuage.

    If you eliminate the need for PC access then use BTMM for access to the TC.

    CCMM is authorized only and only the Apple method which are likely to work.

    Have you even tried yet?

  • Use WAN connected airport Time Capsule as a wireless access point

    I had to replace a failed 4 Gen Time Capsule. I tried to install a new Gen 5 airport TimeCapsule via WAN and set up the airport to act as a wireless access point. It is installed in an area of my house with wireless coverage. In the network of AirPort Utility Mode section, I chose "extend a wireless network. The TC is restarted, I get an error message cannot find the intended wireless network.

    What I lack?

    "Extend a wireless network" is a parameter that is only used if the time Capsule need to connect to another router from Apple with the help of a Wi-Fi connection.

    You use Ethernet to connect, you must use the parameter to "create a wireless network. Use the same wireless network name and the same password as your "primary" router

  • 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.
