Setup problem and now can't see time capsule

On Friday, I used Airport utility to set up Time Capsule. There was a choice saying "do you want to add on to or replace and existing router?", to which I said yes. at the end of the setup, Airport asked "Do you want to replace the existing router now?" and I said no because I don't want to replace it yet. That seemed to confuse Time Capsule.
On Monday, I disconnected the existing router and I tried to hook Time Capsule up to the DSL modem. Time Capsule didn't recognize the internet and my computer wouldn't recognize TC. Time Capsule is now not connected to anything (I reinstalled the old router and it is working fine). My computer can't see it an neither can Airport Utility. I tried to rescan but nothing comes up. Does anyone know what is wrong and how I fix it?

The only way to tell is remove the drive and test it.
I would do a reset of the TC first. Just hold in the reset button for about 7sec and wait for it to reboot. A reset will not do anything to your files. Then try again to access. If no luck the drive is probably dead. Either replace the whole TC under warranty.. or if you have no warranty left/drive contains valuable info, open up the TC.. plenty of sites explain how to upgrade to a bigger drive. just follow them. Put the drive into a USB carrier and plug it in or even better use it directly on sata port.

    Downloaded much and now can not see how to fix it?

    I hate the new downloads-in-a-tab scheme. This was an unnecessary change in my book (if it aint broke, don't "fix it").
    So in order to get it back, I performed the about:config browser.download.useToolkitUI change, but now all I get is a blank download window that pops up every time I download something.
    Is there something else that I need to do? I've checked the change and it was saved, but it didn't resolve my issue as much as it just caused me a new issue.

    Hi, my wife uploaded new fonts to her macbook and now can not see any writing on her screen, can I fix this?
    System fonts deleted accidentally. Does anyone know how I can fix this please?

    Thanks Mike,
    Absolutely right. I restarted in Safe Mode. This enabled me to see the actual text on the screen. Then I backed up. Then reinstalled. All fixed.
    Thanks again,

  • Mac can not see time capsule

    i bought Time capsule over Amazon .Air port works fine , but my mac can not see time capsule,,,sometime does , but most of the time not...
    It is a problem with time capsule i have 2 T new generation

    You don't mention what type of Mac you have, but is there any way you can move it around to see if that affects the problem?  If you hold down an "option" key while you pull down the AirPort/WiFi menu bar item, you should see a value labeled "RSSI" that is the strength of the wireless signal.   A value closer to zero is stronger.  For example, -30 is decent but -80 is poor.
    By the way, you don't seem to have declared any of your system details in your profile or didn't select your details to be included in your post.  Those can help people give you correct advice.  To update that, click on "Your Stuff" near the top of a window on these discussion groups, then on "Profile".  Scroll down to "My Products" and either edit an existing one or add a new one.

  • Windows can't see Time Capsule. Should I reset?

    Hi,
    only had my MacBook 4 months so this is all still rather new!
    I setup my Time Capsule without any problems and use it for my Time Machine backup. My wifes PC (running XP SP2) could see the HDD and I copied her photos onto it. Now her PC can't see the disk!
    How can I fix this? Should I reset the Time Capsule? Will that delete the backup?
    BTW the few "Why does it do that?" moments are vastly outnumbered by that "Oh that's nice/clever/cool!!!" ones.
    Thanks

    Hello bsalisbury1. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    When running your Gateway under WinXP, can it see any other wireless networks in the area? If not, then there may be something wrong with the WinXP driver for the Linksys card or the card is not configured properly. Is your Time Capsule (TC) wireless network encrypted: WEP, WPA, or WPA2? If it is, and you temporarily disable it, can the desktop see the TC network now?

  • IPhone 4S Can't see Time Capsule Wireless after IO6 update

    My iphone can't see my Time Capsule wireless network after upgrading to IO6.  My iPad3 works fine after upgrade.
    I determined that if I change settings on the TC to 802.11N(b/g) compatible it can see/connect.
    Seems to be a problem with the 802.11 5GHz band that the iPhone can't see after the IOS6 update.
    Not sure if this is the same issue that others are seeing but could be worth a try to change your router's radio config.
    Hopefully Apple sorts this out soon.
    Very annoying to upgrade and have existing networking break!!!!
    Bad Karma and I just ordered 2 new iPhone 5's

    Still having this issue - used to be able to connect prior to this update - The iPhone has no problem auto joining the local Cable WiFi - but still doesn't show the Time Capsule WiFi SSID's in the list. iPad and three other Macs see and can join the Time Capsule WiFi.

  • Moved iTunes library to Time Capsule and now can't see music in iTunes

    G'day People
    I moved my iTunes library to my Time Capsule and pointed iTunes to the new location via Preferences - > Advanced.
    However, when I start up iTunes, it's empty. When I check the Preferences in iTunes, the location of the library is correct, that is, my music folder on my Time Capsule.
    Has anybody else had this problem or know why my library is blank when, in fact, iTunes IS pointing to the location that holds the library?

    I moved my iTunes library
    What exactly did you move?
    and pointed iTunes to the new location via Preferences - > Advanced.
    That simply tells iTunes where to store music in the future.
    However, when I start up iTunes, it's empty. When I check the Preferences in iTunes, the location of the library is correct, that is, my music folder on my Time Capsule.
    No, that is the location of the iTunes music folder.
    The iTunes library contasts of the \Music\iTUnes folder and all contents and the iTunes music. wherever it may be located.
    Let's try and fix it.
    Again, what exactly did you move?

  • Upgraded to 10.5.8 and now can't see either of my networked printers

    Hello all, I just upgraded my G5 dual 2.5 to 10.5.8. I have two printers that are both connected to separate Airport Extremes. My G5 ethernet port is connected to a linksys WET11 wireless ethernet bridge, which is in turn connected to the wi-fi network of the main airport. Here is my problem. I can surf the web just fine, so clearly my G5 is seeing the Airport. However ever since upgrading to 10.5.8 I can't add either of my networked printers in the printer setup. It just doesn't see any printers. I've reset the printing in the OS (control clicking on the print prefs and resetting followed by reboot) I've rebooted both the printer and the airport separately and I've double checked that the printer is set as a shared printer in the airport admin software. My laptop (an ibook g4) also running 10.5.8, has no problem seeing both networked printers and printing to them. I'm flummoxed as to why my tower suddenly can't. (It could see both with the exact same setup running 10.4.11) Any ideas? Your help is greatly appreciated, since this is very frustrating! thanks,
    -Andrew

    Your network setup is a little complicated. Can you explain it a little better and confirm that there's only one DHCP server in it - all devices get IP addresses from one of the Airport Extremes, for example?
    It sounds like maybe you have two or more separated subnets.

    Hi ElizabethAnnT,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    With the Mail app open on your iPhone, notice which email account is showing in the top left corner of your screen.  Tap on that mailbox and you should be taken back to the main MAILBOXES window.  See the picture below:
    If you tap the Edit button in the top right corner of your screen you will see a list including "All Inboxes" and "Unread."  Make sure there is a blue circle with a checkmark to the left of all of these.

  • Recently changed wireless routers and now can't see airport

    Had airport express working fine with windows 8.1.  Now I have upgraded my router and I no longer see the airport.  How do I reconnect?

    You have a new network....and the AirPort remembers your old one, which is no longer there.
    The solution is to reset the Express back to factory default settings and then set it up again to connect to your new network, just like you did when you set it up to connect to your old network.
    Power up the Express for a few minutes
    Hold in the reset button firmly for 10 seconds and release
    Allow a full minute for the Express to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
    The Express is now back to new, out of the box settings, so you can set it up again.

  • Installed windows service pack and now can't see igoogle content

    I recently installed a service pack for Office 32bit on my Sony Vaio. Now I cannot see any of my page content on Igoogle, or certain features on Ebay. I checked my popup filter, and even turned it off, and that didn't help.

    The updater's now built into iTunes, which came with a new version of the iPod's required background service, rendering all previous updaters void.
    To get to the updater, go to the iPod in the sources panel (left-hand side), and you should see the Update and Restore buttons.

  • How do I resize so that I can max and minimize the page again. I clicked on something and now can not see the ubuntu menu bar at the bottom of my screen while browser is openj

    I cant resize, minimize/maximize because the top bar of the browser has disappeared and the browser window now occupies my entire screen, I can no longer tab back and forth using the ubuntu menu bar at the bottom of the screen. I have to pull down from File to quit, there is bar at the top that I can click on with my mouse. I did this accidentally and rather quickly by clicking with the mouse on something late last night, and I can't correct or even find out what I've done

    My home page background has a design on it. How can I change it back to its original plain background.
