Can I use time capsule to store music and video files as well as use it to back up.

Sure.
Why are so many peolple asking this?
Just store your files there.
And when using Time-Maschine for the back-up select the Time-Capsule (whatever name your has) as the place to store the date.
cheers, anne

HT3702 Why can't I download my already purchased music and other files from iCloud, even though I owe money to iTunes for my most recent purchases. Doesn't seem right that they keep me from accessing those files which I've already paid for!

- Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
- Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

NOT ABLE TO IMPORT MUSIC AND VIDEO FILES FROM IPOD TO COMPUTER/ITUNES LIBRARY !!!!

Hi.... I am having IPod Nano 5th Generation. I can access music and video files (that are stored in Ipod memory) in Ipod. But when I connect the ipod to computer, I am not able to access/import these music and video files through computer. Also, I am not able to see any folders like DCIM, Contacts, etc... in the memory of IPod. Can any body help me out... ?

Search it up on google.com. There's a lot of apps that will help you do this. Check out this one:

You can also check out this video:

I tried the import software (trial version) and it was fine but I didn't want to pay for software. You can authorize up to 5 computers in the house to access your iTunes music and other iTunes purchases. Open iTunes, you can go under Store and select Authoize this computer.
Good luck!

Putting music and video files that I purchased from iTunes onto the creative z

For my birthday i got a itunes gift card and i bought music and video files with it but when i import it i cant find the music files in the folders they should be and the video need a directshow codec on the zen vision m so how do i put the codec on it and find all the purchased files?I need these files on my zen!

Find that sadistic friend of yours who bought you the gift card and beat him into submission with a dead trout.
Seriously, due to iTunes' file being locked with DRM and being in a format that is incompatible with the Zen, the only thing you could do is look for underground/illegal methods to remove the DRM and convert the file into unprotected MP3. Due to the illegality of the issue, I cannot provide instructions (that, and the fact that iTunes won't let me buy music from them because Malaysian money isn't good enough for them, therefore I haven't actually tried). But I can say that What-U-Hear is a pretty innovati've solution . Apart from that, Google is your friend.Message Edited by RAMChYLD on 09-02-2007:59 PM

How to import missing content for my music and video files from Itune online

When your data (everywhere- computer, phone, pad) deleted you normally restore it from back up. Find if and where you backed it up and restore from that backup.

Just updated my OS to os5...why did all of my music and video file turn into an "other" file and how do I fix it?

I just updated to OS5 and all of my video and music files are gone and now I have an inaccessible "other" file about the size of the of the old music and video files. When I go to sync music files in itunes they never show up on the phone. Help!

Never mind. Just read some similar questions and tried restoring it to backed up version and now everything seems to be working. What a relief!

How can I play music and video files in Solaris 10?

Hi all. I just downloaded Solaris 10 and installed it. I haven't used it for a long time (since version 8), and as I can see now, there are many improvements. I just loved Java Desktop! :)
Can someone please tell me what libs or codecs etc, do I have to download and install in order to play music and videos (mp3, wmv, dvd etc), and where I can find them?
I use the on-boaad sound system (Realtek AC97)
Thank you all.

You didn't mention if the sound drivers are working. If not, download and install the driver from here and reboot (it supports your codec):

For players, see my FAQ:
http://www.sun.drydog.com/faq/6.html#6.47
DVDs are more of a problem because of DCIMA. Look around.

Set time capsule as my music and photo library?

Hi there,
I have a new Time Capsule, i have made the first back up copy, and i think it goes ok.
My question now is:
i would like to delete all my music and photos from my laptop, and set my library in the Time capsule, so i can have more room in my laptop which is a real problem right now.
Is it possible? I guess from now on, all the copies it makes will NOT have the music and photos, but in the one i alredy did they will appear, wont they? so i can set this one as my library....
Thanks,
Crespo

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

Can I move Time Capsule to 2nd home and retain settings?

I have a new AirPort Time Capsule that is working great for wifi and backing up. We are in the process of moving to our 2nd home for the season and not sure if I need to take any special steps to keep Airport up and running as is. Same computer will be used (late 2013 MacBook Pro with Retna Display). Different modem and carrier at second home. Anything I need to do?

You can export your configuration from present setup in the airport utility and retain that..
As Bob says most people need to reset the TC for each setup.. It simply remembers too much and that stops it working properly.. as long as you record your names and passwords to the clients nothing will have changed but the setup on the TC does.. save this configuration as well.. mark the files carefully so you know which is which.. then each place you go you can quickly reset the TC to the location by simply importing the correct configuration.

I-tunes -lost music and video files

can you download your purchases from i-tunes again...

Just use your back up. This is why it is fundamental to maintain a back up.
Have you failed to maintain a back up?
You can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod - File>Transfer Purchases
From the itunes store terms of service:
" PRODUCTS CAN ONLY BE DOWNLOADED ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM"

MacBook Air 11" can't access Time Capsule Disk

Hi:
I have two Minis, a MPB 13" and a MBA 11" connected to my Time Capsule. My MBP and the two Minis can access the Time Capsule disk with no problem. It's a different story for the MBA.
From the MBA, I can see my Time Capsule in Finder (Bonjour) and I can click on it, however the disk never appears. Clicking "connect as" doesn't do anything either. From Finder if I go "connect to server" and I type the IP address of my Time Capsule it connects without problems, but it won't connect with its name.
I am able to connect the disk on my other Macs from the MBA via Bonjour, just not the Time Capsule. As mentionned earlier, the Time Capsule disk is available from my other Macs and even from Windows.
I rebooted a few times and confirmed that the username/password are properly saved in the keychain of my MBA.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!

Are your other Macs connected via Wifi or ethernet? It sounds like some sort of network configuration issue. If they are connected via Wifi then I'd make sure the MBA has the same settings for it's network. Alternately I'd get rid of the keychain entry on the MBA and re-enter it to make sure it's correct. As a last resort I'd restart the Time Capsule and see if it makes a difference. I'm connecting a MBA to a Time Capsule so it should work.

Enable disk use and Manually manage music and videos

When I go to Summary, Enable disk use is checked but dim, so I can't change it. Manually manage music and videos is checked and not dim. Is this enough to do so that I can manage the videos I have shot on my Nano from iTunes, or do I have to do it from iPhoto?

Hello JohnKerr48,
I can manage the videos I have shot on my Nano from iTunes, or do I have to do it from iPhoto?
You have to manage them via a Finder window, through iMovie, or iPhoto. They cannot be managed via iTunes unless you copy them from your Nano onto your Mac and then import them into your iTunes library. For more information, see this Apple support document.
