Do i need to set up the time capsule airport before i start backing up using time machine with my time capsule?

Some setup is generally required.. because the TC is a network device.. not a plug in via usb.. therefore it has to exist somewhere in your network.

I just set up my Time Capsule and would like to back up my old MacBook with Tiger (10.4.11) to it

I just set up my Time Capsule and would like to back up my old MacBook with Tiger (10.4.11) to it so I can access the files with out taking up space on my new MacBook Pro. Since I've purchased this time capsule I've heard that using it as a "server" it not ideal, but at this point I don't have a lot of other options. Any advice on the best way to back up my old computer and be able to access these files from my new computer??

Open Macintosh HD and look for the Time Capsule icon under the SHARED heading on the left side of the Finder window
Click on the Time Capsule icon and a folder representing the drive will appear to the right. The folder will be named "Data" unless you have changed the name of the drive.
You may need to click Connect As in the upper right hand corner of the window and enter the Time Capsule device password to get the folder to display the first time that you do this.
Once the folder is displayed, double click the folder to mount the drive on the desktop. You can drag/drop files onto the icon. This is going to be very tedious, but it can be done.
I would suggest that you look at an application like Carbon Copy Cloner to automatically backup the files that you select. Then you can schedule the applcation to automatically backup any files that have changed each day.

thanks, back me old bookmarks only, thanks.

Hi eddinchina,
You should have no need to use the Old Sync account.
As long as device or devices are Firefox 29 or later (They should all be Firefox 30 now) you should use the New Sync.
You may use the same email address with both accounts.

I need to set up Firefox on my IPad 2 to be able to use my MLS system. How do I do this?

I need to set up Firefox on my IPad 2 to be able to use my MLS system. How do I do this?

1. Mozilla doesn't have a version of Firefox for iOS, which is used on the iPad.
2. Most MLS services aren't compatible with Firefox, they seem to use software that needs controls that are only available in Internet Explorer.

I am using Mac osX 10.9.2
I can see that I am not the only one with this problem.

LOL... this is what I just had to look up... it's not exactly clear or apparent, is it?
When in Full screen mode.. just press Command-F. Voila!

How can I programmably extract the project build information set in the project build specification. So I can then use the information in an 'About' dialog.

In the labview\resource\appbuild folder their are some VI's that can deal with build specs! They return a variant containing the data!
It's the reason I build a variant probe.
Be aware that the build info is not present in th lvproj file of the built executable!

Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store. The phone has a 1 year warranty. If it's no longer under warranty, a replacement is $269.

Is the Time Capsule wi-fi router compatible with the Nest thermostat? I've read where there are issues with the Nest and Airport Extreme (AE)? Is AE used in the Time Capsule?

I've read where there are issues with the Nest and Airport Extreme (AE)? Is AE used in the Time Capsule?
If so, i already have a wi-fi router, so can the Time Capsule simply be used for wireless backup instead of as a router if there is conflict?

A TC is fundamentally a AE with a sata chip included to drive the hard disk. Some slightly different bios to include disk functions, although most of those are also on the AE. So as a router it is 99.999% identical.
And yes, if you have another router you can easily bridge the TC and use wireless for backups and internet connection. Once you no longer route through the TC the issues with most NAT problems including port forwarding should disappear.. mostly this is due to all apple routers using NAT-PMP instead of upnp which is the near universal standard for opening ports.. without upnp apple keep their routers more exclusive.

Time Capsule only works for one device at a time, how to make it capable to be used for multiple devices at times

Time Capsule only works for one device at a time, how to make it capable to be used for multiple devices at times.
Please help to set it up, thanks in advance

You need to give more info..
Firstly only works for what.. networking.. backup.. wireless. You need more nouns.. more adjectives... describe what you want and what fails.. then we can figure out why.
Most likely you have bridged it when it should be in router mode..
Most likely you are using Lion or ML which has the airport utility bridge the TC by default.
Change it to working as a router. That might help.
If you press reset button it will default back to router btw.
If you are on Lion.. use a real utility. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1547

Can I use RAID 1 with a Time Capsule?

Can I use RAID 1 with a Time Capsule?
And if yes, how do I do so?

Don't think that the firmware on the Time Capsule will support a RAID device at the USB port on the Time Capsule, if that is what you are planning to do.
Even if it might, the connection will be about half the speed of USB on your computer. Better to connect the RAID to your computer and back up that way.
If you plan to back up using Time Machine, check with the RAID manufacturer to see if that might be supported with the device.

My daughter had completed a chart in pages. I saved it and then clicked on other chart types. Now I can't go back to the original chart she made even though I have not re-saved the file. How can I go back to her original chart with data?

I don't get what you are saying.
Is this all the same document?
What version of Pages?
Have you tried to revert to a previous version?

Hello otter314!
Let's take a look into this to see if we can figure out what happened. When did this begin? What's the software version of the device? Do you remember what was happening with the device right before this started? Please supply me with some additional information, I'm happy to help with a resolution!

Need help setting up the Spam Filter in Mail

Hi,
I tried so many times to set up my Spam filter in Mac OS Mail, without any success so far. Basically, I have 2 email accounts in Mail, one of them should only let mails through which have "Webmessage from" in their title. So I added the following rule in the Options (translated from German): 'Subject doesn't contain Webmessage from'. Additionally I also added 'Email is Advertisement' and I used 'fulfilling one of the following rules'. What this does, it it filters EVERYTHING and throws it into the junk. I also tried with other rules, as for example 'Sender is in previous receiver' and 'Email is not adressed to my full name', ... Mail just filter everything, everytime or nothing at all.
Can somebody please help me?

When you set up a mail filter, you can have multiple conditions before an action is taken. So, for example, if you want a rule to apply to one email address, set up the first condition where the 'to' is equal to the email address you want filtered. Click the plus sign next to it, and add the 'subject doesn't contain Webmessge from' condition. Above the 2 conditions, check 'all' of the following conditions. Then under perform the following actions, add two rules, one mark as read, and two move to junk or trash or wherever. That way, since it's marked as read, you never see it in any unread mail counts.
