Apple TV connected to cable with AirPort Time Capsule

Hello,
I would use exclusively AirPort Time Capsule to store movies and music to the Apple TV not connected to the Internet. Is it possible?
Massimo

Where the content is stored is really up to the user, but it must be in the iTunes library on a computer on the same network with that computer on and iTunes running.
If the content is acquired via iTunes or has some type of DRM protection (most iTunes content does) it requires and Internet connection to play.

  • There was a problem connecting to the server "AirPort Time Capsule".

    I bought a new Macbook air and a 2TB Airport Time Capsule. I currently use the ATC for time machine, and external storage of Itunes & Iphoto libraries.
    Everything was beautiful until the other day when I got the following :
    There was a problem connecting to the server "Airport Time Capsule".
    The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again.
    I still have internet connection, and have tried other suggestions across internet but really the only fix has been to power cycle the ATC. This unfortunately is only a temporary remedy for a day or so until it returns.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

    Every time I try to connect to my 2TB Airport Time Capsule I get the following message "The server may not exist or is unavailable at this time.  Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again."  However, if I unplug it and then plug it in again, I can connect to it.  How can this be corrected without having to unplug it all the time?

    Are you using Yosemite??
    This is stock standard yosemite bug and we have no simple fix for you..
    You can fix it at its source..
    Hack in DNS from Mavericks.. so Yosemite can be raised to a level of reliability above GHASTLY.. !!

    Apple still have not fixed it.. and users are now sick and tired of the problem.. so have resorted to what can only be described as extreme measures.. in fact I wonder why people don't just revert to Mavericks.. or earlier.. whatever OS was reliable.. instead of seeing the latest greatest update as necessity.

  • Replaced Airport Extreme router with Airport Time Capsule-now printer won't connect to network

    I had no issues with connecting to the Airport Extreme.  I have recently replaced the Extreme with an Airport Time Capsule (the new one that is 802.11 ac).  All of my other products were able to detect the WIFI router and connected with no issue once I entered the password.  However, the HP 2710 finds the WiFi router, allows me to select it but when I enter my password and click OK, it comes back after several minutes saying that it can't connect to the network.  I checked the IP address and it's all 0.0.0.0 - it's won't establish an IP address either.

    Hello @theros1093 , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I understand that you're having issues connecting to your router. I would like to help!
    I'd recommend powering down your computer.  Once it's powered down,  go to the printer and select Setup , select Network, and select.  Restore Network Defaults.  Power down the printer.  Once it's all shut down, unplug the router power for 60 seconds, and plug it back in.  After it broadcasts, power on the printer and computer, and reconnect to the wireless network.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Using 3G internet in network with Airport Time Capsule

    I am struggling to get all devices in my home network to connect to the internet through 3G cell network.
    I have an iMac connected to APTC with ethernet and a Macbook Air and Apple TV connecting to APTC with wireless. I have a USB dongle plugged into the iMac with 3g internet connection. In preferences->sharing I enabled internet sharing from the 3g over ethernet. The problem is that the APTC and the Apple TV don't seem to connect to the internet when I enter my AppleID for BackToMyMac or home sharing. The iMac and Macbook Air are both able to access the internet normally.
    I have left the default DHCP and NAT setting on and DHCP for all other devices. I checked what IP address the different connections have and the IMac ethernet was 10.0.1.2, the APTC ethernet was 10.0.1.1, APTC wireless showed 168.254.x.x, Apple TV had 10.0.1.5 and the Macbook was 192.168.1.2. Why are the autoconfig IP address not all in the same range and why can 2 devices connect and 2 not, especially since the 2 that can connect are in different IP ranges?

    The issue here is that Internet Sharing has your iMac on one network subnet, and the iMac is sending out a signal for other devices that is on another network subnet. Devices can connect to the Internet, but they cannot "see" each other from one subnet to the next.
    In other words, if you enable Internet Sharing, you cannot "extend" the network that the Mac is using for its own Internet connection to other devices.....which is what you need to do to have all devices on the same subnet.
    I think you need to drop the idea about Internet Sharing on the Mac since it cannot do what you want to do.
    If you do not need BTMM, then a router like Jan suggests would likely work if it will provide enough IP addresses for all of your devices.  You would come out of the Ethernet port on the router and connect that to the WAN port on the Time Capsule and set it up to operate in Bridge Mode.
    Another option that might work would be to configure the Time Capsule as a router behind another router. This will create a Double NAT error on the network, but it might work if you connect all of your devices to the network that the Time Capsule creates.

  • How can I find my printer's ip connected (ethernet cable) to a time capsule which is in network extending mode ?

    I got a network printer connected to a Time Capsule which extends my wireless home network. But I can't manage to find out it's IP address nor i manage to find it on the network ! Am I doing something wrong ? Is there a way to tell Time Capsule which is the IP of the network printer ?
    Hope somebody can help me out !

    Most printers can print their status page.. on the status page is the current IP. I personally don't buy network printers that don't have a small LCD with enough menu to set things like IP address. And reveal the current IP.
    Is the printer set to dhcp? If so it will get an IP from the TC.
    Apple removed useful aspects of the old v5 utility which would give you a listing off all IP addresses passed out by the TC or connected to it.
    You can however do a netstat scan from your computer.
    In finder type in network utility into the search (apple have hidden it in a stupidly obscure location)
    In network utility run a netstat scan which should pick up the printer.
    One aspect of this, is that if the printer is in a deep sleep, power saving mode.. you may not pick it up.. certainly you should make sure the printer is awake and ready to run.. even if you need to reboot it.
    There will be a problem if the printer is manually set to the wrong IP range.. then it won't come up at all. To fix that you will need to actually read the printer manual.. and find out how to reset it to its defaults and start again.

  • How to configure Airport Time Capsule with IP Camera?

    I have recently switched from a DLINK Router (DIR-655) to the latest 3TB Airport Time Capsule. The ATC works great, super fast etc...
    However...
    I had an IP Camera (Trendnet TV-IP572-WI) connected to my DLINK Router, using a Dynamic DNS account (dyndns) to access if from outside my home (i.e. from the Internet). The configuration on the DLINK was quite straightforward. (Virtual Server)
    Question: How to do the same with Airport Time Capsule ?  I had a look at the detailed settings menu in the Airport Configuration Utility. but cannot find anything like this (Virtual Server, Port Forwarding etc...)
    Many thanks for your help !

    What is the make and model number of your "modem"?
    Most modems these days are actually modem/routers or gateway devices....which would require that the port forwarding be done on the "modem"....not on the Time Capsule.
    If you did not see any settings for DHCP Reservations and Port Settings when you looked around in AirPort Utility, this indicates that the Time Capsule is likely configured to operate in Bridge Mode.......and it is your "modem" that is actually the router for the network.
    Open up AirPort Utility again, click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click the Network tab at the top of the window
    Check the setting for Router Mode.......which is likely set to "Off (Bridge Mode)"
    Is it?

  • Connect to AirPort Time Capsule remotely via Windows 8?

    Is their a way to connect to the new AirPort Time Capsule 802.11ac remotley via Windows 8, 7, or XP? I've tried to open up the smb port (445) but i get no luck on my mac or pc. I opened the afp port (445) and i get right in. Any suggestions?

    SMB is blocked by 90% of ISP's around the world.. the number of unprotected windows computers that would be exposed opening SMB would probably cause the WWW to collapse.
    SMB is entirely unsafe.. it is a local LAN protocol to never ever be used over the internet. It has poor security and when people setup LAN sharing it is often setup with none. 
    The TC does not expose SMB to WAN.. only AFP..
    And no windows computer has AFP protocol add ons.
    Summary.. it cannot be done.
    Now the right way.. Use a Mac. Either directly or via BTMM and iCloud.
    Or relegate the TC to bridge and buy a proper vpn router.. Connect to the network using vpn and you can fully access all network resources as if you were on the local lan. A vpn router is not expensive.

  • Cannot see NAS units after upgrading to Airport Time Capsule.

    I just upgraded my router from a D-link DIR 655 to a new Airport Time Capsule and I cannot no longer see access my Drobo NAS units. 
    http://www.drobo.com/products/professionals/drobo-fs/
    I am using Mountain Lion OS 10.8.5.  I know when using OS 10.8.5 I have to ensure that DDServiced and DDServiced64 are Allowed.  I have done this in the routers settings.
    http://store.apple.com/ca/product/ME177AM/A/airport-time-capsule-2tb
    I cannot see the NAS units on my PC (Windows) either.
    My internet works (wirelessly and physicall) so the router is connecting to my modem correctly.  However I cannot access these NAS units nor their shared holders on any comptures or wireless devices in my house.
    Is the Airport Time Capsule the issue here?  Is it compatible with the Drobo FS NAS?
    Thanks

    I am running the latest version of Drobo Dashbloard on both my Mac and PC 2.5.2.
    I only see DDServiced64 under Apple Symbol to top left of Menu\System Preference\Security and Privacy\Firewall\Firewall Options.
    Given that I cannot see the Drobos on either my Mac or PC I am wondering if:
    1) is the new Apple Airport Time Capsule causing problems; or
    2) is the Norton Antivirus that is on my PC conflicting with a setting on the Apple Airport Time Capsule
    None of this was a problem when I used the previous router (D-link DIR 655).  I could access both Drobos on both my Mac (wirelessly) and PC (physically connected to the the same router as Drobos via network cables).
    When I was using my D-link DIR 655 I was using DCHP and using static IP Addresses for all my devinces in my house.  Now when I changed my router over to the Apple Airport Time Capsule I did not opt to use DCHP.  Could this be an issue.  Note I am not having any problem with any of the other wireless devices in my house.  I can see all my Sonos wireless music equipment.  However I cannot see the two Drobos that are physically connected to my Apple Airport Time Capsule.
    Thanks

  • Airport Time capsule has been making its first back up for 3 days and still going

    Been having problems with airport time capsule (its a 2TB model my iMac is 1TB), when first used it backed up OK then wouldn't back up after a few months operation. Spoke to support on Thursday 3 days ago, they got me to delete disc from airport utility and had me check all my connections were correct then started a new first backup again.
    All seemed to be ok as it showed there were 840 gb to back up. so slowly this reduced friday night to 300 gb remaining. Then Saturday it showed 150 GB of 350 GB now today it is showing 485 Gb of 534 GB but as the target figure keeps increasing just checked now it shows 535 GB!
    I have entered time machine to see what is there and all file seem to have copied across but haven't checked then individually. There is only one TM folder saying Today now, so it is still on the first back up.
    The other strange thing the available space on the TC is now showing 864 GB free of 2TB how can this be if my imac has only 1TB!

    If you still have issues.. and you well might.. i recommend you start over..
    Unplug the TC from the network and plug it by ethernet into the computer..
    Do factory reset of the TC.. and do a simple setup.. leave it in router mode.. ignore all the problems.
    Make absolutely sure ipv6 is set to link-local only for ethernet.
    Turn wireless right off.. and start the backup again.. It might even be worth erasing the TC and start over.. It can do 60GB/hr by ethernet.. so should do the disk in around 12-15 hours. although to be generous it can take a long time when it does loads of small files.
    Still got issues then tell us exactly what TC model it is.

  • There was a problem connecting to the server "Max Time Capsule"

    Disclaimer:  Previously posted here (Ask Different) and similar to this.
    I'm trying to use my MBP inside and outside my office, and having it backup to my 2TB Time Capsule when on its wireless network, or defer backups when not on the Time Capsule's wireless network.
    Unfortunately, if I've been on a different wireless network for a few hours worth of backup attempts, bringing the machine back onto the Time Capsule's wireless network doesn't resume backups, and Time Machine never recovers. I can select the disk as a backup drive in the Time Machine preferences, but the disk remains unavailable from the Finder, and any backup attempts yield the standard:
    There was a problem connecting to the server "Max Time Capsule"
    Check the server name or IP address, and then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator.
    My WiFi connection is through the same Time Capsule that hosts the backup drive, and its name and IP address have decidedly not changed. The only thing that seems to help is restarting the Time Capsule, but that is an inconvenient workaround at best.
    The problem sounds similar to Backup Disk Not Available, but the answers to that question are either to restart or change the disk name or turn off the 5 GHz network (which didn't help). I also looked at /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeCapsule.plist, but found nothing that seemed relevant.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My MBP is running OS X 10.7.5, and the Time Capsule firmware is 7.6.1.

  • Airport Time Capsule and external hard drive issue

    I have an external hard drive connected to my 3TB airport time capsule. It no longer shows up in the finder sidebar on my iMac, which is connected via ethernet. It does appear on my Macbook Pro, connected via Wi Fi. It worked normally when first set up. I no longer have a way to drag files from my iMack to the hard drive so I can share them with my MacBook Pro. I am running Mavericks.

    This is crude but if you need a work around, just plug the USB drive directly into the iMac.. copy the files to it.. then plug it into the TC.
    You also do not need to use the TC as an intermediary between your iMac and MBP.. just turn on sharing in the computer.. so you can directly copy files from one to the other.. Macs have public access directory preconfigured for each user account.
    As far as mounting the TC..
    In finder use Go, Connect to server.. and type.
    AFP://TCname or TCipaddress
    Where TCname is the actual name of the TC.. I strongly recommend you follow SMB network rules.. ie if your TC has a name like
    Fred Blog's Time Capsule 2445566.
    It is too long.. it has spaces and it has non-alphanumeric characters.
    Shorten it to FredTC
    No spaces no characters that are NOT alphanumeric.
    TCIPaddress is simply the standard IP.
    You can also use CIFS://TCname which according to the article forces the connection back to SMB1 rather than SMB2 which as usual is broken.
    But I would definitely use AFP if possible. I cannot understand the decision to move to SMB as standard.

    I now wish to add a second Airport extreme but am considering a hard wire connection with 100 ft of cat 6 cable from the Time capsule to the second Airport extreme.
    Excellent plan.
    Can my network operate properly to extend the network with both a wireless and wired extend functionallity?
    Yes, but don't get confused about the second AirPort Extreme, as it would not be configured to "extend" a wireless network.....it would be configured to "create a wireless network" using the same wireless network name, security settings and password as the Time Capsule network. Configure the second Extreme in Bridge Mode.
    This Apple support document will show you how to hookup and configure the second AirPort Extreme:

  • How to connect New Airport Time Capsule to non Apple asdl router

    Guys,
    I have just purchased a new AirPort Time Capsule to back up the various macs in my house. I want to connect it to my wireless router which is a non apple product but the setup instructions are a little unclear to me.
    My current router has simply a phone line connector and the power source coming into it. Do I simply connect an ethernet cable from the Airport to the Router. And if so, do I use the single Ethernet WAN port or one of the three Ethernet LAN ports on the rear of the airport? I assume the other end of the cable goes into any of the Ethernet slots on the back of my router which are marked 'Ethernet', or would it go into the socket marked 'Broadband WAN'?
    Appreciate your help and if anyone is willing to speak on phone, I am very ahppy to call you in the next couple of hours! I am in the UK
    Best, Anthony

    thanks LaPastengue!
    Here is what ive got
    What ATT router do you have? Exact make and model please.
        gateway 2wire from at&t
    What TC do you have.. Latest AC tall one?? Or older one?? If older. .please tell us the model number. A1409 for example from the base mat.
         yes I have the latest airport time capsule 2TB
    Please tell us the full setup.. what is currently plugged into the main modem router??
         The Main modem route has an ethernet cord plugged in the other side of the cord is plugged into the phone      jack
    Do not plug the TC in first.. plug a single ethernet TC to the computer.. Hmm. so I need an additional ethenet cord to plug the TC into the computer? Leaving the router plugged in as is?
    Open the airport utility and change the TC to bridge mode.
    https://discussions.apple.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-23706673-32722 6/450-411/bridgev6AU.png
    Update the TC and then plug it into the ATT modem and plug it into your computer or use the wireless and then tell us what happens.
