I have trouble getting my new Apple TV 2 to work to the internet. I have an Imac with OsX 10.6.8 using a 3G modem to connect to the internet. I have a Time Capsule with Airport. I can't get the Apple TV to see my internet connection
I have an Imac with OSX 10.6.8 dual intel core.
Apple TV 2
Timecapsule
3G modem connected to iMac for internet access.
I have tied to get Apple TV2 to see the inernet but it does not seem to see the inernet connection either via the Airport network or even if I connect it directly with a ethernet cable to the Timecapsule or the iMac.
I have tired to set up Home Sharing but it doen't see the Itunes Store so no go.
I don't have wired internet but it is probably something to do with using a 3G modem
Any tips on how I can check if the TV coonect to internet and what to do about this problem?
I was trying to connect my HD TV earlier using a WiFi USB modem but it could not see my iMac. Apple Support told me to buy an Apple TV but that is not helping as I can't see anything there either.
Regards from Michael
Thank you so much Paul_31 for your suggestions, HUGELY appreciate the effort
I have reset the printing system, a few times for good measure but nadda.
I have also looked at getting the software from the Apple site after seeing that with Snow Leopard you should let the operating system lead the install not the manufacteurers software as it is most likely out of date. I too found it wasn't there so I uninstalled the software got up the CLX_3300 series stuff then went from there with the USB cable. It apparently hasn't worked either
Unfortunately now after using the print utility to scan for a while that has now gone again on the last restart of the Mac. I am so completely clueless
The box says the printer is compatible, the place of purchase said it was compatible, the Samsung site says it is compatible.
I think it's the set up of my Mac? Our maybe a glitch in the network settings?
Thanks again

How do I connect to Time Capsule from a Windows 8.1 machine which is on a Windows domain. I have been able to connect from a Windows 7 machine on a Windows domain to a Time Capsule. Airport utility is not displaying the Time Capsule Win8.1 machine.
I have checked that the firmware has been updated to 7.6.4 . Similalrly the Win8.1 machine has been loaded with the update specified in another discussion.Firstly how are you connecting to the TC.. wireless or ethernet?
Please open a command window and ping it.. ping by name and by IP address.
If ping succeeds at least by IP it should work.
In windows explorer type
\\10.0.1.1 (or whatever the TC ip is.. that is the default).
Having the airport utility for windows loaded can help the process. As it loads bonjour for windows.
7.6.4 firmware on the TC is useless. It works better on 7.6.1
If the ping does not succeed by either name or IP address yet you have internet through the TC, then your network is setup wrongly. You are have firewalls blocking local IP. Take down all the firewalls. -
I have several computers. My equipment is upstairs in a house, apple time capsule and downstairs airport express. Lately the downstairs computer keeps disconnecting from the internet. Would replacing the airport express with and airport extreme give me a greater range for my wifi connections?
Yes. Question is... would the difference be enough.
The extreme has a bigger & more powerful antena array. But if that alone still doesn't suffice, you also have the option to use the express to EXTEND from the Extreme. -
Time Capsule fell over, now can't get the disk to mount
Hello all
Sorry for being a numpty, I've trawled through various threads but can't find the help I need.
I store my iTunes library on a Time Capsule. When loading up some CDs earlier, iTunes seemed to drop the connection, couldn't find the disk. I rebooted the TC and it popped up with a flashing amber. Airport Utility says "internal disk needs repair".
I've had a look for threads with similar problems but I always get stuck at the "mount the sparsebundle in Finder" bit.
I can't get Finder to see any disk at all. So I can't drag it to Disk Utility...
Am I doing something really silly?
Is my disk inside the TC toasted? I hope not... don't have the iTunes stuff anywhere else except on old backups, which are (you guessed it) on the TC also.
I'm not much good with OS X either so very basic instructions would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance
SimonHi, I just suffered the same thing! did you get any information on this problem or were you able to retrieve your data?
Thanks -
Apple TV Inference with Time Capsule and Airport express?
I have recently bought an Apple TV 2, which seem to be working fine, however since installing it on my wireless network both my Time Capsule and Airport Express can't be found. Following some fault finding it seems that when I unplug the Apple TV I can reconfingure the TC and AE.
The TC and AE are configured to join my existing network....and have happy sat there for a few years.
I would really welcome any ideas.
Thanks
RWelcome to the discussions!
It sounds like you have the basic configuration covered correctly.
You might want to check some settings on the TC:
Wireless Mode would be create a wireless network
"Allow this network to be extended" should be checked
The AX should be set to "extend a wireless network"
The "allow wireless clients" box should be checked
In this configuration, the ethernet port on the AX is active so things should work.
A minor point...Although the TC is a dual band device, the AirPort Express is not. Can you make sure that that the Express is connecting to the "main" network on your TC? The "guest" network cannot be "extended".
If you place your laptop close to the Express and hold down the option key while you click on the AirPort icon, some connection information will be displayed. The MAC address of the device that the laptop is connecting to will be indicated. Make sure that that this is the MAC address of the AX, and not the TC.
Another note...If you have not changed the default "main" network, the radio mode is broadcasting 802.11n only at 5 GHz. These higher frequencies are absorbed by walls, ceilings and any obstructions much more quickly than 2.4 GHz signals. So, if you AX is some distance away, you may not be receiving a strong signal for the device at that location.
If you have a signal strength utility on your laptop (the "bars" at the top of the screen are not a very good indicator of actual signal strength), turn off the AX and take a reading to see what kind of signal the Express is receiving where it is located.
Please post back with your results. -
How do I install Airport Time Capsule with ATT Uverse when two of my modems are wireless?
I recently purchased an Airport Time Capsule so that I can back up multiple Apple devices. I currently have ATT Uverse and my internet provider. Also, two of my modems are wireless. How can I set up the Time Capsule so the the two wireless modems will still work?
I think you are using wrong terminology so can I ask exactly what is the model number of the wireless modem??
The Uverse is already a router.. and I guess you have cable service.. so there is no need for more modems.. more likely you mean you have two wireless routers and these should be setup as Wireless Access Points.. (WAP or AP). If they are working as routers then you have far too many routers. If they are working as modems you have far too many modems.
It is impossible to tell you how to setup the TC until we know what the setup is.
But let me suggest the most straight forward approach is to plug the TC into the Uverse by ethernet (it cannot be used by wireless.. so this is necessary). Run the TC in bridge mode.. and create a wireless network. Test if you then can access it from your network client devices and do backups from Macs.. if so there is no need for the wireless modems.. leave them off. -
I need to setup our time capsule with an arris cable router
We have an existing 1st Gen Time Capsule but have moved. We went from Verizon Fios to CableVision Optimum Online.
The cable modem is an Arris TM822G plugged into the the WAN port of the TC. I can connect to the cable modem via ethernet and that works.
The time capsule flashes yellow and can't get an IP address but, my MacBook Pro sees the SSID
We use this for Time Machine backups and don't want to lose what we have.
Any ideas? Couldn't find any from CableVision.Do a factory reset of the TC.. this seems to be necessary to get it going again in a new setup, especially with cable.
Also your TC is probably in bridge mode.. the reset will put it back to router mode.
Does the cable modem have a battery backup or phone service? Sorry I don't know the exact model.. anyway you need to shut down the modem.. if it is battery backup, drop out the battery or unscrew the coax cable. It can sometimes take 15min or more for the system to reset. when you plug in another device it will take the public IP. So the first device that connects captures the IP.. that has been your computer.. now you have to get the TC to take it over.
A reset of the TC btw will not harm data on the disk.
Reset methods here.

After full 15min.. (you can try one minute to start).. power up the modem.. wait 2min and then power up the TC. -
Configuring Time Capsule with a Fiber Modem
I had installed a Fiber Modem FIBERHOME AN5506-04 today. But since then, I have to choose. Or I use the Internet via AirPort/TimeCapsule or I use TimeCapsule to make my backups.
The configuration needed was DHCP/NAT at TimeCapsule, fixed IP. If I try to use Bridge I gain access to Time Machine, the light turns green, but have no access to the internet; when, as assisted by the support of the provider, I use DHCP/NAT, I gain access to the internet, but lost access to Time Capsule, my MacBook Pro can't find the disc.
My configurations using static IP are:
IP:172.21.2.190
subnet mask: 255.255.255.252
Gateway: 172.21.2.189
DNS:
187.94.192.61
187.94.192.62
Router Mode: DHCP/NAT
DHCP INTERVAL: 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.100
The AirPort recommends to change to Bridge mode, but if so, I lost access to internet. How to solve these issues? Some clue?

Using the harddisk on Time-Capsule with Windows
I would like to connect the harddisk in my Time-Capsule on a Windows-XP PC.
The drive has its file-sharing with a disk-password. With my iMac I can use the drive normaly.
But even the Domain is set to Workgroup, like all Window-machines, I can't see nor connect from my Windows-XP PC to this drive.
The windows-machine has a correct network-connection (I see all my Macs and other Windows-machines).
So, why is the harddisk from the time-capsule not recognized by the Windows-PC's?
Thanks.
Erichyour network componets config could be blocking the settings needed to make this work transparently. there are things like firewall settings that change the transparency of a network.
reguardless of the settings, you should be able to use explorer, tools tab, map network driver tab and either browse til you find your time capsule drive or you can type in the time capsule location in the folder box such as \\x.x.x.x\sharename where x.x.x.x is the IP address of your time capsule unit and sharename is the name of the timecapsule drive share.
you can also go to a dos box in windows via the start, run and type cmd in the dialogue box. once you get a dos box, enter net use y: \\x.x.x.x\sharename where y: is the drive letter you will be assigning, x.x.x.x is the TC IP address, and sharename is the TC share name. you will be promted for a user ID and pass word. if you setup your TC to allow guest full access then the user ID is guest and the password is the TC unit password. Once you get this working....you can change from guest access to a named userid and password access.
hope this helps -
I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for a couple years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both the iMac and MacBook Air? I don't mind losing earlier backups. I have excluded some items from backing up, but since the Airport Time Capsule is full, I can't even begin to back up the MacBook Air.
On your Mac.......
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click on the Disks tab at the top of the window
Click Erase Disk
On the next window that appears, select the Quick Erase option, then click Erase
The operation will only take a few minutes.
Now you are ready to start new backups of both Macs. Back up one Mac first, then back up the other. Do not try to back up both Macs as the same time. -
I have loaded my Time Capsule with my photos, videos, music etc. I want to access these using my Apple TV on my home WIFI for display on my tv's, and Ipads, Has anyone figured out a way to do this? I can do it by access to my Macbook but that's not always convenient.
If the light will not turn on the TC is dead. No matter that the hard disk is running.. it should only run at start up or when it is accessed not constantly.. that means the board in the TC has failed. Apple do not repair them.. They will replace it under warranty or applecare.
If you have gone over the 12month warranty it will still be covered if you have applecare on any computer or an Apple TV. In fact the cost of the apple TV plus apple care is still cheaper than buying a new TC.. so it is a route some people are taking.. certainly depends.. in some places like Europe or Australia now, there is a recognition that statutory warranty must be longer on a product that is premium to the market. 12months is not good enough. Apple will sometimes listen.
They might be fixable but I do not know how. -
I have an Ipad, I activated the time capsule with no issues. I added the airport Utility application without issue. However, I do not know how to access the hard drive with either my Windows computer or the Ipad. Does someone know how?
On windows load the airport utility .. latest correct version as possible.. there is no windows 8 but win7 works after a fashion.
Make sure the TC is using SMB compatible names.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Type the name directly into windows explorer.
\\TCname or \\TCIPaddress
If no luck turn off all the firewalls.. internal windows plus security software plus whatever other gargyoles and other rubbish AV software you have running.
Ensure windows is able to at least ping the TC by IP address and name..
Use the utility in windows to set file sharing to guest account on with full read and write access.. and set workgroup to WORKGROUP. -
I have a time capsule with all my mdeial files. Will apple TV play the amedia files with out a need for pc or Itunes?
Thank you in advancerfromla jolla,
What I'm hearing now is that any NSA still needs some iTunes interface to "go through". I'm going to use iTunes on my iMac as the pass through. I keep it running just about all the time.
You can use the little Apple Mac mini fine. If I were rich I'd do that.....
Oh well..... -
how do i set up the time capsule with only a wireless net work? it keeps asking me to plug in a cable and i do not have one.
Are you using a v6 uitlity.. because it is a toy.. ??
Get v5 utility and then you can hold down the option key and select the right mode.
If you have lion, just install it.. For ML follow this.
How to load 5.6 into ML.
1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
2. Download and install unpkg.
http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
You cannot uninstall 6.1 so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool. -
How to Set Up Time Capsule With Airport Extreme and Airport Express
Just got a new 1TB Time Capsule. I want it to be the main base station for my network. I already have a network set up with an older Airport Extreme base station and an Airport Express to extend it. I am thinking that rather than setting up the Time Capsule to "join" the old network, the best approach is to disconnect the Airport Extreme and Airport Express and reset them. Then set up the Time Capsule as a brand new network and bring the reset Aiport Extreme and Express onto the new network as if my original network never existed.
Is that the right approach or am I complicating it? Can I just join the Time Capsule to the existing network and still make it the main base station for the network?evelK wrote:

I'd first use AirPort Utility to "Save a Copy As" of your AirPort Extreme settings. Then disconnect it, connect the Time Capsule in its place, and use AirPort Utility's "Import" function to read those settings. (Both of those functions are under AirPort Utility's "File" menu.) You may have to adjust a few settings. Once you have the Time Capsule working as you want, you can reconfigure your AirPort Extreme unit as you wish.
