• 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.

• Can I use time capsule as external hard drive?

  Can I use time capsule as external hard drive so that I can access a file or a specific folder by searching for its name?

  A TC is now and for always player network... no external. So there are limits to its use.

  If you are multitasking your TC with Time Machine and then using a DMG file as a virtual drive is better than directly copy files... However sharing becomes impossible. One person at a time can open the DMG.

  See pondini. T3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html

  Old but still interesting to read.

  You can certainly create a folder on the TC and copy your files on it, and then perform a search. Research is slow on wireless is so the speed of transfer of large files. With the help of ethernet is certainly encouraged to desktop computers.

  Sharing folders on the TC is also now more difficult with increasing security at El Capo and OS later. You do not create on the computer records are not available. And even the ones you create can occasionally and autonomous change permissions (since the TC controls drive not the computer), you lock your own files on... I answer these questions once a week.

  Not all software on Mac supports using network drives. The most difficult is photos that can corrupt the library due to disconnections... which are the most common wireless. Be warned backups are important and not easy to do because of the slowness of the USB port on the TC and you end up really need to another location on the network for backup on.

  Generally, I advise the people not not to use the TC for direct files... That is to say, if you edit a document, make sure that it is on a local drive... When you have finished the document, you can copy it to the network drive and delete the local version. Easy for... not so easy documents for photos with major libraries.

  A TC cannot save itself and Time Machine backup impossible network drives... This means that no backup will be your files in the TC, unless you take the initiative and do it.

• 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:

• Can I use Time Capsule as a router to connect wirelessly with a pc

  I can all my products easily connect to the internet using Airport Time Capsule? I know I can save wireless my Apple products, but can I also backup my computers portable windows on the Time Capsule via a cable?

  Yes, but windows esp... 10 windows can be uncooperative.

  Also I do not know at all the recovery will be easy depending on what backup software you plan on using.

  Don't forget the world of Windows that the TC still looks like NT Server with FAT32 drives and all the inherent problem that there are.

• 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.

• How to use a Time Capsule with adapters wired circuit

  I have a BT home hub and it gives a good signal in the room, that he is. I get more distant of the hub removes the wi - fi signal. I use a spare room as a study where the hub BT signal comes and goes and is slow so used line adapters in this room, and use an adapter to my MB Pro net ether when in the room... If I created my time Capsule to the adapter that I can then use as my wi - fi for the study and to join my network printer?

  I see that I put my request in the wrong Board so will close it and re post on board transport CANADA. I'm sorry.

• 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.

• Need help to set up Time Capsule with surfboard SBG6580... wifi or extender?

  I just got my Time Capsule and trying to figure out if I should use as my wifi router, or keep my SBG6580 active and e TC allows to extend my warranty.

  Any recommendations?

  In addition, how? Online instructions do not seem to be very clear.

  Thank you!

  I will always recommend to use your Time Capsule as a router, it will be much easier to access and manipulate, unless really, you need to report more coverage.

• Question conectivity Time Capsule with Windows 7

  Hello

  I am owner of a time Capsule A1309 with 3 TB of memory and it stopped working with my Windows PC for a while. It used to connect normally not long ago, but now the drive doesn't appear and I can't access the time with AirPort Utility Capsule unless I type the IP address. I have a lot of archives stored in the drive and cannot access it from any PC running Windows in my house.

  My Control Panel is:

  • RAM - 8 GB
  • Intel Core i5 - 2430 M 2.40 GHz
  • 64 bit
  • Windows 7 Professional

  I know that the Time Capsule works normally, because I can access it from an old iMac I have here.

  Other details: My Time Capsule is on System 7.6.7 version and I also have the last airport utility installed on my PC.

  Thanks in advance,

  Rodrigo Trindade

  For starters, you have access to the Time Capsule (TC) using the AirPort for Windows PC? The question started the TC to 7.6.7 firmware version after update?

• Using Time Capsule airport on 2 devices

  for some reason, I have a PET of brain here and do not understand this.

  My wife has a laptop computer macpro she does his grad school stuff on.   I have an iMac.   I also have the time capsules from the airport.  the woman is set up with time machine, it sends data via wifi to the time capsule. It is very good.  The mine records at the same Time capsule airport wireless.

  ME, I would use one different wifi router other than the airport on another network device I have, however, the question is: is it possible that I can keep the wifi for the operation of the Apple device and connect my computer via ethernet to the device for the back upward only, using the capsule on the imac.

  I think I can, but I don't want to screw up the wireless network.

  You can use both ethernet and wireless at the same time... but it becomes complicated with the gateway router and DNS values.

  Secondary wireless router should use another address LAN IP for the TC, so you can separate the two networks.

  This could lead to further questions about the network although because you must plug a router into the other I presume... unless you are completely isolate the TC from the internet or if you have in fact two internet connections.

  Give me the real details.

  What is the second router and IP is running?

  How is the installation of TC and what IP is running?

  Screenshots that make it easier.

  I did a write up with screenshots here, which will give you the basics.

• ICan I use Time Capsule in my Airport extreme to save files Ihave on my windows7 computer?

  How can I configure my Airport extreme, time capsule 3 to use the portion of the time capsule for the backup of my Sony VAIO computer?

  You can back up a windows computer to Time Capsule but I do not recommend.

  Any backup software that can use target network should work.

  Macrium Reflect is the one I use, I know the Time Capsule works.

  Time line of engineering is a concept similar to Time Machine for PC... It's more that I want to make, but it doesn't seem to be a free version... How good or bad or I do not know what limits.

  Internal backup software MS is generally useless... at least up to win 8.1 10.

  NOTE... A USB connected to the laptop computer and formatted NTFS native is far superior to backup to TC which is formatted HFS + (illegible for windows) which is networked that the SMB protocol and treaded as NT server with all its limitations with FAT32.

  Like many things you answer the question you... Yes. If you have... N °

• use time capsule 4th generation to extend the network

  Can I use the time Capsule (4th generation) to extend a network? I would like to connect via Ethernet to a router (Belkin) of non-Apple. Thank you.

  -> Belkin router-> Ethernet cable modem-> Time Capsule-> wifi network products in another part of the House

  Yes, it works perfectly.

  The TC will be in bridge mode...

  

  The wireless will be defined to create a wireless network.

  You can use the distinct name to the Belkin Wireless... or you can use a name identical to the Belkin with identical password wireless and security setting... This is called roaming network, so in theory, you can wear around your wireless devices and they swap "tours" as a mobile phone... Sounds good in theory... a little less than the sum of the parts actually.

  

• 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.
