• First external USB disk backup from Time Machine and Time Capsule

  I have a new USB drive from 4 TB to use for backups Time Machine plugged on my almost full Time Capsule.  The Capsule is connected to my network using Ethernet, so it can be used to back up my MacBook Pro and iMac (via ethernet) (wireless).

  I would like to initial backups by directly plugging the USB directly on my iMac and my MacBook Pro.  I currently have the USB plugged into the Capsule of time connected to the ethernet. The initial backup for my iMac took 2 hours to make the 35GBs of 1.6TBs to back up so far.  So potentially 2 + days of initial backup...?

  There must be a quicker way.

  Box: to recover from my iMac support precedent (after a crash), which stood on a 3 TB USB2 drive plugged to the Capsule, it was estimated to take 36 hours.  I fly over the drive and plugged into the USB port on my iMac and the recovery only took about 8-10 hours, so it does not work for recovery.

  I tried to make the backup of the iMac by plugging the USB drive of 4 TB directly on the iMac. I then moved the dUSB Time Capsule drive, but he seemed to start when plugged into the TimeCapsule. If possible, I must have done something wrong in the order.

  It is extremely difficult to backup directly to the USB port and then move it to the TC because TM backup differently at local and network drives.

  People have figured out ways around it... but you think that it cannot simply... After saving 1.6 TB of data.

  It's a little slow... is the gigabit connection and the wireless is turned off?

• Time Capsule/Machine and my mental health

  I approach insanity trying to untangle my time capsule. The Capsule is an A1470 with 3 TB.

  I've set up on the purchase in January with my MacbookPro also brand new - am I not lucky?

  It all worked well - wifi network, time machine - batch.

  At the end of March, we had to have a new router - BTHome Hub5.

  Everything disappeared - printer, time capsule, time ability machine work etc, yes I know the well-known story.

  I spent 3 days together precious faced with this information: Burkina Faso / plain speak for idiots like me.

  After reading what seems like everything on the forum and related links, I finally put in place the capsule time again, and it seems a network too.

  I'm not exactly sure how.

  However, it is different, and the time machine sees the TC as a new drive.

  I now have a picture of 'Data' on my desk which I believe is the previous data from backups.

  In Time Machine preferences, I'm now backup on 'Data' which is a 'new '? disc.

  Hovering on the disks of two 'data' that shows the details for the 'new' in TM preferences as follows:

  AFP: / /MyName%20mysurname; [email protected]./data

  To the previous 'data' it reads

  AFP://scrufaptc.local/data

  scrufaptc is the name of the time Capsule, I'm sure that you realize.

  Time machine seem to make incremental backups to this 'News' data and did not attempt to do a full backup.

  He knows the previous backups but won't admit it?

  Can I place the old 'Data' on the ' new 'data '?

  I destroyed it?

  Any help graciously received but not in technology talk please!

  A change of router... (HH5) caused the entire network change... It is absolutely normal.

  Whenever you change the main router of the network will change and the address of the backup.

  When you change the location... you have no other choice than to start with Time Machine... He actually never check the new target for existing backups until it starts... I wish that apple would change this function because it's confusing... However, he starts a backup... the first thing he will do is searching for existing backup that it find then check... It can take quite long time to check the backup... Once done it will be then simply do the next incremental and all is good.

  So, what do you do...

  Absolutely nothing.

  At any given time... TM may ask you you still want to use the backup of the old...

  AFP://scrufaptc.local/data

  Then you can say no...

  Otherwise, you can reset TM now yourself.

  Here see A4.

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

  I don't think that you need to do it well.

  He knows the previous backups but won't admit it?

  Can I place the old 'Data' on the ' new 'data '?

  3 days of struggle of the network has worn out you.

  You can not put the old data in new data... they are after all one and the same.

  TM is thick as a brick. As I said, he might one day ask you to allow him to find the old backups... or ask you want to use at the same time... you will say no.

  Trying to go and delete the plists is not really necessary...

  And for your own sanity... It may be useful to look at actually what is the partition of data of your TC in the Finder.

  Click on the name of TC and the data to see what are the files/folders...

  You should see a sparsebundle which is your computer backup... If you see two of them to talk to me.

  1 n ° put them on a regular external drive and the value of Time Machine to back up as well; the files you want to keep should be at least two disks in case one of them goes down.

  2. they will not be usable until the restoration.

• Time Capsule connected via Ethernet and put in place as an extension to my Airport Extreme Base Station wireless.  'Disc' Time Machine use?

  If my Time Capsule is connected by ethernet to my Mac, Time Machine uses this connection or the wireless connection?

  It depends on the order of connection of your Mac. If your Mac has been defined first connect using Ethernet if an Ethernet connection is present, then the Mac will save over Ethernet, even if the WiFi is enabled on the Mac.

  However, if your Mac has WiFi to connect first and WiFi is on... then the Mac connects using WiFi, even if an Ethernet connection exists.

  To see the binding command or service so that your Mac is using...

  Open the preferences system (gear on the dock icon)

  Open network

  Click on the gear at the bottom of the list of connection icon

  Click the Set Service command

  If you want to make sure that your Mac will always connect to Ethernet first, even if WiFi is turned on... then you want to make sure that Ethernet appears at the top of the service order.  If this isn't the case, drag it to the top. Click OK, and then click apply at the bottom right of the window.

  Another simple method to ensure that the backups will be produce by Ethernet is simply disable WiFi on Mac and let up to that you unplug the Ethernet cable, date at which you would be back on WiFi

• 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.

  I have an IMac with time machine and time capsule. If I buy a large external hard drive can back up all my Lightroom Info but also everything else to go to time machine, & that it saves on hard drive new, after he made a backup to time capsule?  This way, I would have two backups.

  Hi marinersr,

  I'm not sure the backup machine capsule/time, but according to me, that it backs up all data on your hard drive.

  Yes, you can back up the Lightroom catalog on the hard disk external.

  You can set the time of the backup under the catalog settings > backup > he would invite to the backup, when you exit Lightroom > click on select next to the location and specify the location as your new hard drive.

  If you want images of both original backup, you can configure to create a second copy of the images on your external drive during import.

  Kind regards

  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.

  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.

• Time Machine (on Mac) does not detect the airport Time Capsule

  Originally posted on the page of the airport, but seems to be the better question for this group. Sorry for the double post

  Looking for advice on how to get the Time Machine utility for access to my Time Capsule. I use an iMac in late 2012 with MAC OS 10.12 TimeCapsule is 2015 7.7.7 running latest firmware. Airport utility is the latest firmware 6.3.7.

  When I run the application Time Machine, Time Capsule is not detected. I tried the two WiFi and with cables connected Ethernet (not tried USB yet) and my Time Capsule doesn't have a lightning bolt or firewire ports.

  Open Airport utility & see the airport time capsule. I can see all connected devices, including the MAC, but no prompt activation Time Machine on the Time Capsule.

  I recently used TM on this iMac with a G-Technology drive. It auto detects the time machine and executes a back up. But airport Time Capsule will not.

  Any suggestions?

  Sierra has been problematic with the TC.

  1. make sure you don't have any charge virus protection software. In fact, I would say that disable all software 3rd part at the moment.

  2. make sure that you can actually write to disk of TC.

  Attach the TC disc in the finder and copy a file on disk, you can delete it later... It's just to ensure that you have full write permission. If it does not for the most part, you won't be able to use Time Machine... If you can then try TM immediately...

  Just to be clear, the TC is a network device. You have tested with ethernet and wireless... Ok.. They are only suitable methods. You cannot use USB. And clearly, TC has never had nor will never be ports Firewire or lightning.

  3. no chance that a reset complete TC. This will not delete the files on the hard drive, but you must make sure that the device is configured on the current computer.

  4. There are many positions in these days... read through them and do some research. Sierra is a bleeding edge new... So wait you to spend a lot of the precious liquid if you choose to be an early adopt.

  Any suggestions?

  We understand your current configuration of the network with the Time Capsule (TC). Is the TC the only router on your network? What is the brand and model of the modem Internet you have directly linked it by Ethernet?

  Normally you use a wired connection or wireless between the iMac and the TC? This always was a problem or just started to happen? If she just started, have you changed any software/firmware on the iMac or TC?

• 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.

• Sierra Time Machine / Time Capsule problem

  After installation of Sierra, I am unable to use Time Machine to a Time Capsule.

  There was a MacBook Air with two bootable partitions. The partition Macintosh HD has a system of Yosemite and the score of 'second' was a partition of El Capitan, which was created by a clean install and then allow Migration Wizard copy on Macintosh HD, all accounts, settings, networks and other files. The two partitions have been saved by Time Machine to a Time Capsule. The Macintosh HD partition has been erased and Sierra has been installed on Macintosh HD and Migration Wizard was allowed to copy during the second all accounts, settings, networks, and other files.

  Time machine has not worked since. It gets the error message 'no available backup drive.' However, using the Finder, I can get the time Capsule, open the sparsebundle and see all the individual backups. Because I had erased Macintosh HD, I went through the steps to http://pondini.org/TM/B6.html 'reconnect to my backups. Which made no difference (probably because Time Machine is not really see her driving the sparsebundle to the Time Capsule, even if the Finder does no harm to open it).

  Then I tried to select again the Capsule as the backup drive. It asks for a password. I give the password and shortly after it comes up with the error message: 25299 Keychain error when creating a system keychain to the URL entry and the user name '< name >' "afp: / / < name > @2%20Tb%20Time%20Capsule._afpovertcp._tcp.local./Data.

  (where < name > is the name of the logged-in user) I get the same error message if the user is an independent Director. Despite saying that it was not able to create an entry in the system Keychain, Keychain Access shows that there is an entry with the password. In addition, despite being unable to choose as the backup drive time Capsule, he mounted and left on the desk, the time Capsule (containing the sparsebundle) data folder.

  Any suggestions?

  You are the second today with errors of Keychain.

  Time machine on network not connection

  Sierra is a new OS will have a few bugs... but I think that the way you did this configuration is problematic.

  Actually, you have now two partitions with different BONES, but they will have identical computer names (migration has more the name). And it could also spoil the UUID of the disc.

  I guess, but I would say

  1. change the name of the computer.

  2. start a new backup... do not try and link the existing backup.

  3. If you still have no success Delete TM (A4 Pondini) plist and reconfigure.

  No post luck returns.

• Airport Time Capsule and WD MyBook

  I'm a newbie Macbook Pro owner, about a week now, El Capitan running.

  I've just hung up my Airport Time Capsule (3 t) and it seems to work, as the reports of Time Machine backup complete.  I am also connected to the WiFi Airport.

  The Installation Guide says I can connect a hard drive via the USB port.  I have connected a WD MyBook USB port; It is in the format exFAT and contains the data from my old computer to Windows 7.

  What should I do to make this available for the Macbook Pro?  I don't see anywhere in the finder.

  The time Capsule cannot read USB drives to NTFS or exFAT format. Plug it directly into the Mac.
