Can I connect and use Time Capsule with two printers?

Sure, if the printers connect using the Ethernet port, you have 3 ports on the Time Capsule.
If the printers connect using wireless only, the Time Capsule will support up to 50 connections.
If your printers connect using USB, then you will need a powered USB hub. Something like this, for example:

Can I link up one time capsule with two airport express, Can I link up one time capsule with two airport express

Hi, I would like to know whether I can link up one time capsule with two airport express. The result why is that I would like to put one time capsule at first floor, two airport express at 2nd floor and 3rd floor. All these three share one network. Please advise. Thanks.

There are several ways to conenct them. We need to know what it is you want to accomplish first. Do you want better Wi-Fi coverage on the second and third floors or do you want to stream music to the xpresses?

Using time capsule with two macs

Hi
I am using a MBP and an iMac. Is it possible to set up TC to save work from the two macs?

Ah, that's good to know, i was thinking that it may only be used for one dedicated mac. Ok, so at the moment I have my MBP linking with TC wirelessly. I want to do the same for my iMac, do i just set it up the same way? If so does TC then just save both without conflict, or does one have to partition TC?

Upgraded MobileMe to iCloud and now can't connect to my Time Capsule at home with Back to My Mac

I upgraded my MobileMe account to iCloud yesterday and now I can't connect to my Time Capsule when I am away from my home network. I had been able to using Back to My Mac with my MobileMe account. Now the airport utility still only shows a mobileme option in the advanced settings. Is there an update for the time capsule so that I can input my iCloud information?

Apparently this isn't possible. This was never discussed publicly before the iCloud launch. All that was said was Back to my Mac would continue working. I looked everywhere and couldn't find anything, even after the iCloud launch. Made the switch, my AirPort started yelling at me because of MobileMe credentials. I've been waiting for an AirPort update but have still been digging. Just found this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4867
Talk about a footnote. This should have its own article, not be like, "Oh everything will still work great! ... ... ...
Except for AirPort disk sharing."
I'm not too happy about this.

I was just wondering if I can use time capsule with my iphone for both back up and to access the hard drive on the capsule?

I was just wondering if I can use time capsule with my iphone for both back up and to access the hard drive on the capsule?

I don't think backup is supported but you may be able to access the TC's internal drive, from the iPhone, with an application like: NetPortal
Note: I haven't actually tried this app, so if someone else has and was successful in accessing the TC's drive they can certainly chime in.
Follow-up. Just downloaded and installed this app ... and I can now verify that it, indeed, can access both my TC's internal and externally attached USB HDD.

Hello. My mac can't connect to my time capsule. There is no response and I can't put it back to the originals definitions because all my files are there and I can´t loose them. (sorry about my bad english, but I really need help!)

Your files are unaffected by a reset.. no reset via the reset button on the TC harms, deletes or does anything to your files.
The Factory Reset universal
Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
Release reset.
If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Here is how to do a fully manual setup for TC which is sometimes necessary with Mavericks in particular.
Airport Utility shows "unexpected error - please try again" when connecting to Time Capsule

Can I use time capsule with MiFi?

1. Just bought time capsule. I am an RV'er and use a Verizon MiFi to connect to the internet. Can I use Time Capsule with Verizon MiFi?
2. Can I use Time capsule as a "hard Wired" stand alone system using ethernet cables?

Can I use time capsule with a ASUS (RT-N16)router?

I will use a router with vpn. Can I use time capsule with it? And if yes, how do I connect them?

There is no vpn built into the native firmware of N16 so I presume you are going to use third party.
Just plug in the TC and bridge it.. ie go to Internet tab of airport utility and select connection sharing off.
wireless then you will need to figure out.. you can setup roaming on 2.4ghz by using identical wireless name = ssid and security but lock both to different channels.. pick out of 1, 6, 11
In a PC network make sure you use the TC with a new name.. no spaces no special characters.. same with wireless. TC also restrict wireless on 2.4ghz to only 20mhz.. if you have the N16 set to 40mhz you will have to be extra careful with channels.. 40mhz will use up two channels and only one remains.. so your household will have filled the 2.4ghz.
Someone suggested you can turn off 2.4ghz in the TC by not naming it.. When I try that it kicks up an error that it has to be named. So perhaps someone else has a suggestion of how to turn off 2.4ghz.
You can turn off 5ghz by unchecking it. Seems mighty strange that you cannot turn off 2.4ghz but you can turn off 5ghz.

TS1398 I can't connect to my Time Capsule wi-fi with my iPhone.

I recently got internet through Time Warner which I believe is DSL. I connected everything up to my Time Capsule, and the light is green. I got onto my Macbook and updated the firmware for the Time Capsule and am able to get on the internet connected to the Time Capsule with no problem what so ever. I got my iPhone 4 and my iPhone 4s and try to connect to the Time Capsule, I enter the password and all it does is have the loading ring and won't connect to it. On my iPhones I've tried to renew the lease, reset my network settings, turn off and on the wifi, hard reset, turn off the phone normal, and still nothing. On my Time Capsule I've tried to disconnect and reconnect everything, I've tried to restart my modem and reconnect it. It's still the same problem I can connect just fine with the wifi on my Macbook, but my iPhones just have the loading ring and never connect. What can I do?

I had the same issue. Our iphone 4s connected to the time capsule just fine, but the older iphone 4 would not. I turned off the wireless n setting in the time capsule and set it for 802.11b/g only and it worked fine. The time capsule should have negotiated the 802.11g setting for the iphone 4 but it did not. Not a great solution but the g was fast enough to support our cable internet speed of about 25Mbit/s.

Can i use time capsule with iphone

can i use time capsule with iphone and ipad and how can i access my data at anywhre using time capsule

TC is not designed for ipad or iphone or any iOS device.
You should use them with cloud if you want remote access to your data do it via cloud.. you cannot easily get remote access to the TC from iOS device.

Can I use time capsule with a USB cellular modem?

Can I use time capsule with a USB cellular modem?

No, since the USB port on the Time Capsule will only support a compatible printer and/or hard drive.

I get an "unable to connect" message yet I can connect and use Internet Explorer with no problem. I tried updating to Firefox4 and still get the same message. What do I do?

Maybe you should test these things before calling people out, because these settings do function perfectly well.
iCloud is not supported on Snow Leopard or lower, why bother to mention it?
The OP has an iCloud account, and that can not be opened without Lion or Mountain Lion (on a Mac), IOS5 or 6 (on an iPhone/iPad)
The document I linked to is Apples documentation for iCloud on current devices,I don't care whether you believe that you know better than they do, but it will affect the people who follow your advice as it won't work

Calendar. Annoying pop-up message with Using calendar OS X Mavericks. When it tries to connect to iCloud it gives me VERY annoying pop-up message, that it can't connect and that server responds with CalDAVAddSubscriptionCalendarQueueableOperation: 400.

Hello Steve
The simple and quick fix is right-clicking on that little Safe icon in the system tray (near the system clock) and choose Stop Backup/Synchronization. Do you see that icon?
Turn it on and off as needed. Did this work for you?

Can you use Time Capsule with any wifi extender?

Can you use Time capsule with any wifi extenders?

No, since Apple designed their routers to only work with other Apple routers.
I suppose that it is possible that another brand might work, but since you won't know this until you try, it would be a good idea to have a clear understanding of the store's return policy before you decide to gamble.

Time Capsule with two external USB harddrives (only 1 is recognized).

I have a 1TB Time Capsule with two MacBooks, a Mini, an AppleTV, and 1 Vista PC, connected to it without any problems. I've also added a USB2 hub where I have plugged in a Canon printer, 1 500GB Seagate drive, and 1 1TB Lacie (BigDisk) drive. For some reason the 1TB Lacie drive does not appear as an available drive on the Time Capsule but the Seagate drive works fine.
I've formatted the Lacie drive multiple ways (currently it is Mac Extended (Journaled) with a single partition) but this did not change anything. I can plug the Lacie directly into any of the MacBooks or Mini and it appears as an available drive. What gives? Does Time Capsule only support 1 external drive? Thanks for any assistance.

Thanks for your post. I did as you suggested and plugged the problem drive directly into the TC and sure enough the drive appeared and was accessible. It appears that the problem follows the USB hub. I tried a second hub (but it was only USB1.1 capable) and it had the same problem. I will take this up with LaCie.
Thanks again for the response.
