should I do a full reset of TM (per the instructions at the link below) prior to setting up the TC?
I'd start by just selecting the new destination. Do the "full reset" if you have trouble with that.
do I need to set up the network portion first and then turn on TM?
That might make things easier.
even though my mini was previously only connected wirelessly to the old router, I plan to connect via Ethernet to the TC (for one thing, to make the initial backup run faster). Do I just turn AirPort settings off on the mini, or does that need to be on in order to setup the TC?
To assure that your first backup is over Ethernet I'd turn off AirPort until it's done. Check the order in the Network panel of System Preferences. I'd move the Ethernet connection item to the top of the list.
In other words, does the initial setup of the TC from my mini happen wirelessly or over Ethernet?
Either way should work fine.
I currently have a networked printer conneceted to my old router, which I will connect via Ethernet to the TC. Can I assume that, once I have set up all of my family's PCs/Macs/iDevices on the newly-established TC network, that I will have to re-establish connection to the printer as well?
Not necessarily. I'd only do that if the printer isn't available after the switchover.
I would like to reformat the second external drive (the one previously being used for TM backups) for possible reuse with another computer. Can I simply reconnect this to my mini and reformat?
That's what I'd do.
is TM going to see it and try to back it up?
If you've already reconfigured Time Machine to use the Time Capsule drive, there shouldn't be a problem.

  • HT2534 Hacker got my firsts email I was able to change / createu new apple account.    I can not get apps to change account to new apple account even though it shows it in settings .  How can I fix this? but

    My first apple account was email was hacked.  I needed to create a new one.  That was fine I did. I synch it. All music is fine, settings shows new account.  However, problem...........please help my apps still has old account it has been deactivated so I can't download the password to make it work.  I need apps to change to new email account that shows in settings !   HELP!!!!! Does anyone know how to fix this ?

    There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
    Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
    You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's.  Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

  • Since updating to Version 5 EU1.1, Firefox does not open from Outlook email links despite having all program defaults - how can I fix this, please?

    Clicking on a weblink in an Outlook email fails to open the website in Firefox even when the browser is already open. Firefox is set as default browser. There was no problem with this before the latest Firefox update a few days ago.
    I have tried changing program defaults to Internet Explorer (email links worked) and then back again to Firefox, but email links still don't work.

  • Since installing the new update videos keep on flickering when I stream them. How can I fix this?

    Ever since I updated Firefox the videos I watch keep on flickering when I stream this. It is true of youtube, and other mediums. This is not a problem when I watch videos on Safari or Internet Explorer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox to no success and restarting my computer has not helped either.

    Hello, if the Flash player is not up to date, please update it, aslo:
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • Since yesterday when I open a new firefox browser , it searches in yahoo instead of google. How can I fix this.. Dont see anything new in the toolbars

    The toolbars appear the same, but when I open a firefox browser and do a search it uses yahoo instead of google. I am not aware of anything I did to cause this

    Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    You can check the <b>browser.search.defaultenginename</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and make sure that it is set to Google.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode

  • I used Iolo to "clean" my hard drive, and now I can't access some websites, including facebook. How can I fix this? I get what looks like a root directory.

    Since using Iolo yesterday, I can't bring up the full front page of some websites, including Bing. Bing is a grey, blank screen. Lumosity looks like part of a root directory. How can I fix this? I'm trying to use IE instead, and having problems with that, too, and I don't like it anyway.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • When typing an address in the location bar and pressing enter, nothing happens and the site does not load. How can I fix this?

    When I type a new URL in the address bar (or location bar), and I either type the complete URL or select from the drop down list, nothing happens. I hit enter, and the website does not load in the current tab, new tab nor in a new window. Exactly the same when I hit the green arrow to the right of the address bar. I am using Firefox 8, and all my add-ins are up to date.
    It has been working before. The setting to get Firefox to open new pages in a new tab from the address bar is there, so it should open a new tab. But I get nothing at all!
    Please help, how can I fix this?
    Thanks,
    James.

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    I am also having problems with a site I am building. No matter what websafe font I use it displays as New Times Roman in FireFox. The correct fonts show in both IE9 and Chrome.
    In addition, text shifts in FireFox. I have to position other text objects farther and farther apart as I go down the page or they start to overlap. Nav buttons and other images also have to be positioned in the wrong place for them to be in the correct place when the page is opened in FireFox. FireFox should display pages correctly by default. I can't expect th average user to have to tweek his/her settings to display my site.
    I have been recommending FireFox on my website as the best browser. I might have to change that and abandon FireFox myself.
