I have set up Time Capsule to use with Time Machine but when I open Time Machine it 'cannot find' the Time Capsule and I have to 'Select the Disk' each time. In the Next Backup tab it always says "When disk is connected" even though the disk is already connected.

Your pro doesn't matter.. I presume it is happily working.
Your imac setup has got messed up because you changed from a local (my book being USB type I presume) to network drive. Did you do a clean install of Lion?
Did you use the backup from the Pro on the imac? Otherwise I don't see how the Pro shows up in use previous disk. Where is Pondini when you need him??
You cannot download Time Machine as an App and replace the current version. It is built into the OS.. the only way to do it is a clean install. Unfortunately that might be the only way around the issue.
There is a number of issues that Pondini has covered in the setup issues of troubleshooting.
This is the most relevant I think. http://pondini.org/TM/B6.html
But look at the whole section B setup problems.
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
If it was me, I would store all the info you need.. not using TM but using a straight copy of files.
Then clean install Lion. I doubt any of these issues would exist if you had not installed Lion over existing setup or used a different backup.
See if you can get Pondini to respond.. !!

    how do i connect to the network off my itunes? its saying theres no interenet connection even though there is

    Yes and I do understand that! Thank you. There is no option to do an auto channel. Its 1-11 or 36, 40, 44 or 48. Then when it asks for a security its 40 bit WPA or 128 bit WPA. Unsure what that means? If I choose either of those Security options I have to have a certain number of characters for my password, and neither of those options fit the password that was given to me.
    Any suggestions?

    charmi,
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • My computer and phone both can not find the airport wireless connection even though the status light is green whats going on?

    I have cox as my internet provider and the last couple weeks i have been having a ton of connection problems. The status light on my airport express is green but my computer is saying the connection is timing out and my phone is having issues connecting to the internet even though it says it is still connected to my wireless network. is it my airport express or something else?

    Manually mount the TC in the computer..
    In finder use Go/Connect to server.
    Type in the name of the TC or its IP address.. I recommend you use all names of SMB standard.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric. That will give you much less trouble.
    So AFP://TCname.local (where you use the TCname replaced with the actual network name of the TC. local is the domain by default.
    You can use alternative AFP://TCIPaddress like AFP://10.0.1.1 (default IP of TC as router). This is only useful when the TC has a static IP.
    Make sure ipv6 is set to link-local in all the network adapters in the computer and the TC.
    Then go to TM preferences and you should see the TC listed as a possible target for TM.
    Read Pondini for other issues.

    eg C9 about long names.
    A1 to get log info from TM
    A4 to reset the TM setup.

  • Using LabVIEW 6i w Win NT or 95/98 et al: how do you keep a TCP/IP open connection 'open'. The application closes the connection even though the refnum is still active (valid.)

    Actually, I open the TCP/IP connection and pass the connection ID through. Each command to/from (cycle) the UUT successfully executes. The refnum for the connection ID is then passed via a shift register in the while loop. i am using the type cast (4X) function to determine the validity of the connection and case statements. If the refnum is non-zero it assumes the connection is still open; if the result is zero, then the connection is closed and a new session opened in that case. What is happening is that the connection has closed and the refnum is still nonzero after the type cast function; su
    bsequent commands to the UUT then produce Error 1 for the TCP/IP function (there was no open connection, so there could be no write occurrence.) Obviously, this probably shouldn't be happening. If someone can give me some idea of what I am not doing, or am doing wrong, I sure would appreciate it. In the event that I open and close a connection for each command to(from)(cycle) the UUT everything works. It is extremely slow. The connection should remain open according to all the pointers in the Help and TCP/IP function descriptions. Some of this application is proprietary, so not sure how much of an example I could use to illustrate from a VI, but if this doesn't get any where, I will see what i can do to better illustrate the problem...Thanks. T.Raper

    I believe this is a related question. I am developing a LV application the uses TCP/IP to control up to 8 devices-under-test (DUT) at one time. They start and finish testing at arbitrary times relative to each other, and the IP addresses are not known until the DUT arrives. I have some question on what is the best way to manage the TCP/IP handles.
    Presently, I have 8 Global IP addresses (one per testing site) that are updated as DUTs arrive and depart, and then whenever I need to communicate with a DUT I use TCP-Open, Write/Read, and TCP-Close. I do this Open/Write/Close each time there is a message to be sent to a DUT. This is basically working, but I notice that the OS (Windows XP or 2000) is running through local TCP/IP ports at a ferocious rate due to the TIME_WAIT behavior of Closed TCP/IP ports (It takes many minutes for a local port to become available again after being closed). If I am not careful, I can quickly exhaust the pool of OS ports by using tight polling loops or other very quick DUT accesses. I have tried not to do that in order to avoid running out of handles, but it is still very wasteful of ports.
    While it is working, I feel so dirty burning through these handles like this since they appear to be a precious resource. I really cannot easily merge multiple Read/Writes into a single Open/Close since there are dozens of otherwise unrelated tests that communicate with the DUT as a part of their functionality. The tests are even in different subVI's that are accessed via a vi-server, and only one is loaded at a time.  
    I thought that a cute idea would be to cache the handles in Globals, and wrap the Open to use the cache if valid, but reading this thread is making me think it is a lot of effort -- I believe I would need to keep a VI running as a "IP Connection Server" at all times and use some form of messaging to get it to Open/Close TCP connections as needed. Since the DUTs arrive at aribitrary times, and with random IP addresses, I cannot establish all the TCP handles ahead of time -- they would need to be created dynamically. It is much more difficult than simply keeping the Connection IDs in global variables -- the VI that Opened them must not be allowed to terminate.
    So... I am curious...... is it really that bad to Open/Close as frequently as I am doing it? Does it make me a bad person? I understand it is inefficient use of time, but the simplicity it brings to the structure seems huge, and the DUT is very slow anyway. And if it is bad, are they any more recent thoughts on alternatives? Do VISA handles behave the same way as TCP handles (ie. auto-close themselves upon exit of the VI that Opened them) ?

  • I recently purchased a new Mac Pro and have been trying to back it up on my Time Capsule for the first time.  However, it says there is no available disk space. This time capsule was used with my old Mac Pro that had a Home vault open on it.

    The time capsule was used with my prior Mac Pro laptop that unfortunately had the home vault active on it.
    My new Mac Book Pro does not have home vault open.  But I am unable to back up my new MAC pro laptop because it says there is not enough storage space available.  Therefore, t there any way to just completely delete all the old backup data out of my Time Capsule from my prior Mac Laptop? 
    When I go into the time capsule - it shows me NOTHING as being in the backup datas.  So, I don't know where to begin to delete all the old data off the
    time Capsule and start with a completely empty machine. 

    Therefore, t there any way to just completely delete all the old backup data out of my Time Capsule from my prior Mac Laptop?
    Here is how to do this:
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Disks icon at the top of the AirPort Utility window
    Click the Disks tab below the icons
    Click Erase
    The "Quick Erase" option will only take a moment or two
    Now you can backup your MacBook Pro. If you connect an Ethernet cable from the MBP to one of the LAN <-> ports on the TC, the first backup will go 3-5 times faster than wireless.
    Once you have the first backup done, you can use wireless for subsequent backups since they will only take a few minutes

    Yes, on XP, Vista and 7. Have not tried 8.

    Genie Timeline Pro does a very nice job...and it is similar to Apple's Time Machine.  It's not cheap though.  Check with the Genie folks for more info and compatibility with Windows 8.

    i am trying to set up the ipod to my email account and it keeps saying it won't work, even though we have confirmed user name and password.  Any advice?

    Try deleting the account from the iPod and try reentring all the information again.  A lot of times it is easier to reenter the information rather than trying to find and correct the error.
    Try Googling for how to setup the email account for your provider on an iPhone.  You can try for an iPod Touch but frequently that does not exist.

    Is it because the backup on progress?

    Hmmm.. ok.. well you are kind of on your own.. purchasing from another country leads to problems.. especially as the TC itself is regional .. all the setup applies to the region it is sold in.
    Make sure you are using ipv6 in the computers..
    See
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
    The 6.3 utility will not work without it.
    Make sure all names are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Do a full reset and start over.
    But there are no more controls.. you cannot set mode..
    You can set wireless channels.. so do .. try different wireless names for the different bands.. and set fixed channels.. whatever your country allows, usually 2.4ghz you can use 1, 6, 11 but 13 maybe an option as well. 5ghz is much less clear and there are more variation. Just set to one channel and then another.
    Set WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character password .. pure alphanumeric mix of upper and lower case and numbers.
