I just switched my internet provider from Earthlink DSL to Cox cable. I can connect direct to the cable modem from a PC, but when I connect the cable modem to the Time Capsule, I can't connect to the internet through the Time Capsule. Do I need to change any settings on the Time Capsule? Mac Mini...

I installed a new Dual-Band Time Capsule which I purchased specifically for its Guest Access feature. I set it up in accordance with instructions and found that I could no longer connect with other equipments on my LAN. I called Apple tech support and was taken through the full drill of testing everything (which I had done prior to the call). Then when we went through the set up ...

I want to start using an external drive (Lacie) for Time Machine, but need to transfer my Time Capsule backups to this external drive. I have archived the TC backups but that does not seem to be useful for this purpose. The instructions about restoring don't seem relevant either. I simply want to be able to access the older TC backups along with the newer backups on the external ...

Hi, I hope you guys can help me out: Background to my question : I currently have a SONOS system. I love most of it, although I really miss 'dynamic' playlists. You cannot play songs 'on the fly'. You have to go into your library to create your playlists manually. Sure, you can import an iTunes playlist, but this playlist isn't 'dynamic' (unlike the 'Genius' feature in iTunes, where ...

My 500G Time Capsule since yesterday evening refuses to work for longer than a few minutes, which is far too little for any backup. The problem first was seen when I used it with WiFi. I then connected the TC directly with ethernet to my MacBook. Initiated a backup. After some time, it refuses to respond any more. Click on the TC icon in the Finder column view, and nothing comes ...

Dear all, I am using a Time Capsule with Windows 7. Is there anyone who got this to work? For me (and many others) it just doesn't work, the drives disconnects all the time (the network part works fine, just the filesharing isn't). Many people are having the same / similar issues. For some downgrading the firmware helps, which is not an option for anyone. (the newer ...

It took me quite a while to set-up my Time Capsule with all 63-character WPA2 key, MAC address filtering, fixed IP addresses. If I ever need to reset the unit, I do not want to begin from scratch. In AirPort Utility v.7.4.2 under the File menu there is an option to open a configuration file, presumably to restore it on the Time Capsule. But where is the option to save the Time Capsule ...

I have a new Cisco ASA 5505 which I want to place in front of my cable modem. This means I need to adjust the configuration on the Time Capsule so that I can access it from its "outside" interface. At the moment, I'm connected to it from the back-end network, which effectively has me using two NATs -- while viewing the configuration tool, it wasn't really clear to me which ones to ...

Hi, I use my 1TB Time Capsule (with the latest firmware installed) as a backup device and to store my music collection (iTunes music folder). The mounted TC disk gets disconnected at odd intervals, usually in the middle of being used, or when I use an application other than Finder to copy files to it (like exporting from iPhoto). This is now happening almost once everyday... I check...

I have my time capsule set up so I have wireless access to an external HDD. The external HDD is for movies/pictures/songs. But it is incredibly slow. So slow that movies sometimes pause in the middle for the thing to buffer. But the bigger problem is that sometimes the HDD disconnects and I have to wait for it to reconnect. When this happens all my limewire downloads crash. Has ...

Hi. I have a USB hard drive connected to my Time Capsule (which I just got today). I just want to use it as a shared drive, so that the users in my home can use it to access common files (media files, stuff like that). The TC's set up is to enable file sharing with accounts. AirPort Disk Guest Access is not allowed. When I authenticate as a user via Finder I can see the disk, see...

I have a 1 TB timecapsule which I use for my Time Machine backups. However, after more than 12 months of backing up my iMac and Macbook, the remaining disk space is down to about 100MB. I know Time Machine automatically manages disk space by discardng the oldest backup but would like to retain as much backup as possible (given the low cost of storage these days). I alrady have a ...
