Time capsule wireless works with computer but not  other devices.

Wireless internet from the time capsule works with the laptop, but not with any other devices or computers. They pick up the wireless signal, but can't connect. Any ideas?

Thanks for the response. I appreciate any help you can give. The internet modem is from Insight Cable and is an Arris TM602G.
Wireless Mode = create a wireless network
Radio Mode = automatic
Wireless Security = WPA2 Personal
Internet > Internet Connection tab
Connect Using = Ethernet
Connection Sharing = Off
Internet > DHCP tab
DHCP Beginning Address = ? I'm not seeing where to get this info.
DHCP Ending Address = ?
I did notice on the summary that it shows 4 wireless clients, which I assume are the computer and the other devices that can't get the internet but get the wireless.

  • Time Capsule visible to one computer but not another

    I want to use Time Capsule for Time Machine backups of my MacBook Pro, running 10.5.2, and manual backups from my PowerBook, running 10.4.11. Everything is hunky dory for the MBP, but the PB cannot see the Time Capsule - meaning, the Time Capsule is not visible from the finder. I've tried looking for it using Go to Network, Disk Utility, and every other way I could think of. Both computers are on the same wireless network and can see each other. File Sharing is enabled on the Time Capsule. What am I missing?

    I used the Airport Utility to enable file sharing for each of my 3 Macs before connecting them. I don't know if this is necessary but I didn't have any problem
    Go to Airport Utility - Disks - File Sharing (click file sharing and enter credentials for each computer l, select read and write access)

  • Time Capsule backup works on one, but not all computers.

    We have a Macbook and an iMac, both on Snow Leopard. Set them up on TC for backup several months ago, and they worked for a while. Then it stopped working for no obvious reason, with the message:
    The network backup disk could not be accessed because there was a problem with the network username or password. Open Time Machine preferences to select the network backup disck and re-enter the correct username and password.
    Of course userame and password were correct, because, first of all, they had not been changed, and second, because I could put in the wrong pw and it immediately would reject it. As it is, it takes it, counts down for 120 seconds, and then gives the above message.
    Bought a new Macbook Pro, using Lion, and it works with the TC, seemingly proving that all settings on the TC are still good. Tried resetting TC. Tried the Cmd-Alt-p-r reboot, but neither worked.

    Confirm network connectivity (try mounting the TC disk from the client), then (if that fails) look through and clear out all of the keychain passwords for any TC-related passwords and re-enter the current passwords, and then (if that fails) reset the disk password on both the TC and on the clients to a new and different password. Failing all that, I'd archive the backup from the TC and restart the TM backup for the failing systems.

  • Bluetooth issue when working with Safari but not other applications

    I have tried two new bluetooth headsets (Motorola 9HD and Sony DR-BT100cx) that both can Pair with and work just fine with the local itunes application and any DVD I use. But these devices do not work with Safari. I tried going to Hulu, YouTube, etc and i can tell the bluetooth device is 'listening' because I can hear it click or wait for a signal. But I never hear anything. If i switch over to DVD or my Podcasts that are local, it works fine. If I go to bluetooth settings and select 'stop using headset' the MacBook speakers pick up right away.
    Note: I am a brand new Mac user, so please disregard my OS version I have selected. I have no idea how to find my OS version, nor do I know how to install Firefox to see if it is simply a browser issue.
    Thanks,
    Jay

    I have the same issue. I've tried 3 different btooth headsets, and they all react the same:
    - music: ok
    - skype: ok
    - webcasts / video (safari or firefox): no sound, and video stops
    HOWEVER: same system, same headset, using Internet Explorer in my windows xp VM: everything works.
    Anyone know how to contact Apple and log this issue?

  • My time capsule connotes only with ethernet and not wireless why?

    my time capsule connotes only with ethernet and not wireless why?

    Firstly, try a factory reset. This can often iron out problems like this.
    Also, what generation is your TC? What version of AirPort Utility are you using?

  • Time capsule doesnt work with telia bredband no wifi

    Time capsule doesnt work with telia bredband no wifi.  Time capsule and its wifi worked in the beginning, but now it doesnt. I have tried everything without success.

    There is no question.. so if it is a statement of resignation.. then if under warranty and faulty Apple will fix it/replace it.. if not dead you will be given it back.
    Are you using Lion? If so did you download 5.6 airport utility?
    Plug the TC into a computer by ethernet.. hold in reset for 10sec.. and then redo the setup.
    Give TC and wireless short names and no spaces and no special characters.. lock the wireless to manual a/n-b/g and fix the channels.
    Then if it doesn't work most likely faulty. Otherwise it is just setup is wrong.

  • I can import some songs from another computer but not others.  All the songs were purchased with the same apple id. Message says "...check connection to network..." Any ideas as to what could be causing this problem?

    Using home share, I can import some songs from my son's  computer but not others.  All the songs were purchased with the same apple id.  Err msg:"There was a problem downloading ... You do not have enouggh access privileges for this operation. Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again."  The network appears to be fine .  I can import other songs from his library.  The same songs cause me a problem each time I try.  My husband had no trouble importing the same songs I have trouble with. I get the same error message if I try to import the same songs from my husbands computer as well.  "Command I" appears to show the same protections on both the songs I can import & the ones I cannot.  My husband and son are both running OS 10.6, while I am running 10.7.  I think I had this problem even before I upgraded, but I am not certain.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions..
    My first suggestion is to Repair Disk. Here's how:
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
    Please post back and let me know how that goes.
    Here are a few links that may help you to identify the issues:

    Please don't hesitate to post back should you have further questions or comments, or with update.
    Good luck.

  • What is the best way to get a time capsule to work with a new network name?

    What is the best way to get a time capsule to work with a new network name?

    Well it seems that you did not explain to us the full story.  Did you change ISP's or something? Why would it not show up anymore?
    What colour is the light on the time-capsule? If it's blinking amber, then you probably need to do a factory-reset. That should get it to show up again in AirPort Utility.

    If the TC is not the main router just bridge it.
    Have you tried it with the TC bridged??
    You need to describe the full network because we have no idea how all this is setup.

    It should work just fine. You can see user reviews on Apple's web site, here is the URL:

  • Cannot get Time Capsule to Work as anything but Airport

    I have had this problem off and on for months and have never been able to resolve it.  I have already reviewed all of the threads addressing this issue and none of them solved my problem.
    My time capsule will not show up on my finder OR through airport.  If I restart it 2 or 3 times, airport will find it at which point I will again reconfigure it to act as my back-up drive with time machine.  However, immediately after the forced restart, my computer again fails to recognize it.
    Notably, my wireless internet through time capsule always works.  Essentially, my time capsule is nothing more than an airport as I can't use it with time machine OR as a server to store documents through my finder.

    What OS is on the computer?
    You can load 5.6 utility if you are running Lion or Mountain Lion as follows.
    How to load 5.6 into later Lion & 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.
    Leave the package open on the desktop so you can see the file. AirportUtility56.pkg
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. If your Mac refuses to run the software, because it wasn’t downloaded from the Apple store, go to security in preferences and allow other software to work.. this is limitation of trade methinks. You can set back later if you like.
    Now drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. in finder, open the new directory, 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 version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. although I have had no problems when doing so.

    Not works means you get a blank screen as the webpage; works is when you have to allow Flash Player to run "outside of protected" mode several times to get the website to come up.
    Try www.wzeconsulting.com on the three browsers to see what I mean.  wzeconsulting.com is not some spam site, it is the site for a business in China that I work with.

  • How do I configure Time Capsule to work with 8 port unmanaged switch?

    This is what I want to end up with.
    cable modem
    Time Capsule
                                                            wireless network           8 port unmanaged switch TRENDnet TEGS80G
                                                                                                  entertainment center(TV, xbox 360, dvd, apple tv, ect...)
    I have been using the above setup with an E3000 router in place of the time capsule without any problems, and was expecting to just be able to switch out the E3000 for the time capsule and keep right on rolling. At the moment, without the switch plugged in, using the time capsule as a stand alone wireless router, everything works as intended. However, I don't want to have every device in the house pulling off of wireless. Whenever I plug my switch in I lose internet connectivity. I assume this is because both the switch and the Time Capsule are trying to direct traffic and creating a conflict. I have attempted to disable the NAT in the Airport Utility and this is what happens.
    Where do I go from here, or am I heading in completely the wrong direction?

    Unfortunately, you are on the wrong track, heading in the wrong direction at the moment.
    We need to learn whether you have a simple modem or a modem/router.
    This will determine whether the Time Capsule is to be configured in router mode to provide DHCP and NAT services for the network......or if your "modem" is already doing this.....the Time Capsule needs to be configured in Bridge Mode.
    So, I suggest that you disconnect the switch from the Time Capsule for now, and power everything off except the modem, Time Capsule and the computer you are using to configure the Time Capsule, and get things working correctly first. Then, devices can be added one at a time to verify proper operation.
    If this seems to make sense to you, and you want to move forward, please post back with the make and model number of your cable modem.
