My backup to Time Capsule is taking over 4 million days. How can I shorten the time? I am not able to connect through ethernet. How do I fix this?
Not only that but my Mac Pro keep running and does not stop, my Address book has a blue light under it but wont open, the light for my monitor in the bottom right corner wont turn on or off. Please need help...

It sounds like there is an issue with the Mac itself.
Use the verify disk A5 in troubleshooting.

Even if you cannot connect by ethernet, at current location.. you can simply disconnect the TC from the network and bring it to the Mac and plug it in by ethernet. The TC can be reset if you haven't got a suitable current setup (save previous setup before you change it) and run just as backup device.. do the backup and then return it to the network.
If this is just a standard incremental backup.. then something has broken. The issue is not the TC pe se but failure in hardware somewhere.

  • Clock app: How can I shorten the time that the alarm goes off?

    I use the alarms in the basic clock app. They always work. The problem is when the ipod is not in my immediate possession. I have an alarm set to go off at noon. Today it chimed until I could get to it at 12:11. Isn't there a way to tell it to ring for 15 seconds, 1 minute, etc? It just goes and goes until I get to it.
    All other third party apps look like you need to remember to leave their app running. If I would remember that, I probably would not need the alarm, unless I used it exclusively for waking up.

    Sorry it is not possible to adjust the alarm ring time.

    I’m trying to follow HP’s instructions to add a driver for HP Color Laserjet CP 1215 which is connected to my Time Capsule. However, in System Preferences I can’t “add” the printer to the print queue because I don’t have a driver and you have to select a driver before the add button becomes active.  Therefore, the Mountain Lion software update doesn’t add driver software for the CP 1215 driver because I was unable to add the printer to the print queue. 

    This printer doesn't seem to be supported in ML:

    You could try the 1515 driver or use the Generic PostScript Printer PPD when adding the printer.
    Hope this helps.

    Yes, but it will be slow and expensive compared to just buying an external and plugging it in locally.

  • Apple TV uploads can take up to 30 minutes. I need control over this, because it interrupts my presentations. How can I control the time it chooses to do uploads?

    Apple TV uploads can take up to 30 minutes. I need control over this, because it interrupts my presentations. How can I control the time it chooses to do uploads?

    this is exactly the kind of response i expected, almost begged support to please not do this to me and yet there it is another meaningless, non helpful, standard template response to restart my apple tv.
    this does NOT work which is why i am contacting you. i have tried all suggestions about unplugging and restarting and nothing works.
    i live in an apartment and logon to the provided wifi wireless. so i do not have access to a router. however, management says they have talked with their provider and have been assured that the required ports are available.
    remember all the jokes about how bad windows was because the solution was always to re boot. funny huh? how is apple any different.
    i have been to the local apple care store and they are clueless, too.
    should we just end it here and you admit that i will not be getting any support from apple on this one? i got the ipad because my kids were such big fans. it is difficult for me to share their enthusiasm.
    at this point i am just curious about how you say you cannot support your own product so i can complete my file on this contact.
    thanks...sorry it was you who got this problem..

    How Can I Restrict the times my BT Homehub 2.0 is used?
    i want to make sure that the kids dont go back online on their wireless laptops after i have gone to bed!!!
    how can i restrict the useage times (say 11am - 11pm) for the hub/individual users - WITHOUT taking the plug out when I go to bed!!!
    thanks in advance

    @meaga-byte: the second of those two options can be achieved by using the "BT Powersave" function. This does mean that *everyone* will lose wifi accessibility, so no watching iPlayer be for _you_ drift off! PowerSave will turn all your wifi off and back on between particular times.
    This seems a more user friendly option for thoes who are not ofay with IP addresses etc.
    Unless Paul wants to use wifi while in bed

  • How can I find the time a site was accessed in Safari's history?

    I know that Safari's "History" list is in reverse order, that is, most recently visited sites at the top of the list.  How can I find the time a particular site was visited?

    As of Safari 5.1.7 there does not appear to be a way to view the time in the browser, but it is still possbile to find from the raw history file. Open /Users/[yourusername]/library/Safari/History.plist in a text editor. Depending on how your text editor reads the file, you may see a lot of garbled text, but you should still be able to find the URL that you want the time for. After the URL you may see the page's title, but should also see a left square bracket followed by numbers.
    Example:
    _?http://www.apple.com/_Apple[377832904.6o
    The integer is an Apple timestamp (number of seconds since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 2001). Find a timestamp calculator online to get the actual time for your timestamp. In the example above, Apple was visited on Dec 21 2012 at 17:35:04 PST.
    Cheers.

    You can create an array of clusters with one element being the time and the other being the voltage, like so (using the "Get Waveform Components" function):

    How can I hide the time of the day in calendar events in OS 10.9?

    Currently, the order in which the phone numbers appear (in a contact) is dependent on the sequence to which you enter them. There is no way to change that order other than re-entering them in the desired order.
