Backup iphone in Time Capsule

Hi,
i have receveid AirPort Time Capsule for xmas and i could not be able to
do backup from from my iphone to TC. Ídem for my ipad
Anyone could help me?

iPhones and iPads back up to iTunes on a computer....or....to iCloud.
If you have a Mac, and are using Time Machine to back up, then the iPhone or iPad backup in iTunes will be backed up. So, iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad back up indirectly to the Time Capsule.
They cannot back up directly to the Time Capsule.
More information on backups is here:

Iphone and time capsule

Hello there,
Recently i both the time capsule. It`s already instaled and works. I have a iphone to. Can you please tell me how it works? The backups are made through the computer or we can have an wirelles comunication with the iphone and time capsule?
Thanks

Time Capsule is a combination wireless router and wireless hard drive for access to the internet via wi-fi with connected computers and with your iPhone, and for backing up connected Macs wirelessly via Time Machine.
Your iPhone can connect to the internet via your wireless network created with Time Capsule, but that is it.

Trying to restore after getting a new hard drive. I can see the backup on the Time Capsule and on the correct date but it is Greyed out. That is it wont let me open it and restore the machine. Have tried also Migration Assistant, no luck.

At startup hold down the Command+Option/Alt+r keys until you see a globe on the screen. Then use disk utility to partition and format the drive HSF+ and then select Reinstall Mac OS X. whatever version of OS X that originally came on your system will be installed and then you can upgrade back to Mavericks.

How can I copy a time machine backup from one Time Capsule to another ?

How can I copy a time machine backup from one Time Capsule to another ? I bought a 1 Tb Time Capsule to replace my 512Mb Time Capsule. Now, I like to copy my time machine backup from the old Time Capsule to the new one so I can keep using my backup.

How do I move time machine backup on filled time capsule to external disk

TIme machine backups from imac and mbp are currently on 1TB time capsule running out of space.
I want to split the time capsule and move just the imac backups to a new external drive which I want to share with a new macbook air.
The new external drive has been set up with mac OS extended with a GUID partition.
THe instructions on MAC 101: time machine Mac OS X v10.6: How to transfer your backups from your current hard drive to a new hard drive tell me to drag "backups.backupdb" to a new drive but I can't find it. I have just upgraded to Lion thinking I would find it now but it is still not there. Is this becaue I have both imac and mbp backups on the TIme capsule? Here is a screen image of my DATA folder. Desktop seems to be empty. A search for "backups" finds nothing.
EVen if I found backups.backupdb I am not sure whether I should have the external drive connected to the time capsule or the imac to move this file. It will be kept as an external drive connected to the time capsule so I can use it for both the imac and the macbook air.
And I am not sure whether I first need to set up the new drive as the time machine backup drive on the new macbook air or do it after I move the file.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

oops, I just found how to find backups.backupdb by myself, or at least with help from:

I am trying to delete a Time Machine backup from a Time Capsule.

I am trying to delete a Time Machine backup from a Time Capsule. The file is about 400GB and my MacBook has been trying to delete it for 5h now. It still says "deleting" but has not given me a "time remaining" yet. Any idea of what I could do????

You should not attempt to delete backups using the Finder. The result can be a corrupted backup.
I recommend you let it complete, no matter how long it takes. That could be days, if your TC is connected via wireless.
It is not necessary to delete backups, since Time Machine will delete old backups some time after they have been deleted from your source volume. For more information read Apple Support Communities contributor Pondini's explanation here: Should I delete old backups? If so, How?

Macbook backup (LION) on Time Capsule to Macbook Pro

Can I use a macbook backup (LION) on Time Capsule & use that backup to restore a new Macbook Pro also with Lion.

Download 5.6 utility for Lion.. inbuilt version is hopeless.

Set TC and wireless names to short, no spaces, no special characters.. ie pure alphanumeric.
Lock the wireless to fixed channels.. only 2.4ghz matters.. as iphone cannot connect to 5ghz.
Try 6, 11 first then 1. I think bluetooth may be set to use lower channels.
That seems to have fixed it for most people.

Backup Contents of Time Capsule

Hi,
I have a 27" imac running mountain lion and 1TB Time Capsule that I backup to. I want to take periodic backups of my Time Capsule to ensure an extra level of backup
I seem to remember seeing an option under the Airport Utility for backing up a Time Capsule to another HDD from USB but I can't find it now.
Any ideas on how to do this or has this feature been removed?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Mark

The old archive feature was removed.. Apple decided you no longer need it.
But TM in the Mountain Lion can backup to two different locations.. you can use a USB disk plugged occasionally into the computer and backup to that. (This was always possible by changing target for backup but ML has automated it somewhat).
Or you can manually copy the sparsebundle..
See Q18 http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
He (the grand master pondini) covers most of the possible scenarios..

Restart the Time Capsule.

What is the solution to the following: Backup Failed. The backup on "my Time Capsule" is already in use.

What is the resolution to the following error message: "Backup Failed. The backup on "Name Time Capsule" is already in use."
Time Capsule 2nd Generation;
Mac Book Pro, late 2013, 2GHz Intel Core i7; 8 GB, 1600Mhz DDR3; OS X 10.9.4

Pull the power cord from the TC.. count to 10 slowly.. plug the power cord back into the TC.. voila.. problem fixed.
BUT a gen2 is getting long in the tooth.. get reach for hardware failure.. and this might be the first signs.

Thanks for the info.
Your "profile" is the information in your original post that tells us that you are using OS X (10.6.8).
We will assume that you are using OS X (10.6.8). If you are not sure what OS X you are using.....
Click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen
Click About This Mac
Post back with the OS X Version number that you see there
In the meantime, please right-click on the Time Machine clock icon on the dock at the bottom of the screen and then click Browse Other Time Machine Disks. Select the other disk if it appears. See if your old backups are there.

I can´t see the last backup in my time capsule

I had problems with mi imac, so i decided formating the HD. Before format the HD, i made the backup with the time machine in my time capsule. After that, i made the formating, but now i can´t see the last backup in the time capsule.
Can somebody tell me what to do? Because the last backup that it´s show was made in september 2008 and the last backup i made yesterday may 29,2009

TC does not support scanners.. just printers.. if you have a MFC .. only the printer will work.

I've never personally done this, but I'm qute sure you can. After all, this would be one method of migrating from the MacBook to the MacBook Air (with the assistance of Migration Assistant).

How can I Bkp my Iphone with Time Capsule?

How can I Bkp my Iphone with Time Capsule?

No, you will have to re-create the playlists manually on the computer. Did you somehow delete your iTunes Library and the content that exists within that library? If you attempt to sync the phone with an iTunes Library that does not have all the content that the phone has, then the content on the phone will be replaced with the content from the computer.
