Can I access my data on my Time Capsule with my iPad without my laptop

I Recently sold my Mac Book; had all my information backed up to my Time Capsule, can my data be accessed with my iPad or do I need a new laptop?

If it was backed up with Time Machine, you have to have Time Machine to restore it.
Only Mac has TM.. so you need a Mac of some sort to restore it.. you can restore it to a disk.. and then access that over the network from ipad.. but of course your itunes library etc is still completely blocked to you.

    Can I access the data on the time capsule from the Internet?

    You need to follow the BTMM via icloud instructions.

    There are plenty of other ways to do it.. but issues to do with Apple not using a dynamic DNS client so if your ISP does not allocate you a static public IP there is no way to find it, if the public ip rotates as they are designed to do hourly or daily.
    Do a google search, remote access time capsule..
    Or use the more like this on the right hand side... there are plenty of posts and even youtube video which go right through it.
    BTW your school system may simply block the port.. if I was a school IT admin.. I would. You are dragging files across to the internal school network bypassing the firewall.. that is unacceptable risk to the whole school system.

  • How can I access the data on my time capsule remotely?

    I see the drive under the shared tab in Finder, but I cannot open it.  I am at school and need to access documents that are stored on my time capsule at home.  When I set everything up, I enabled "sharing over WAN" and everything and set up the password access. The software is up to date. How can I get into my drive? I tried logging into icloud.com, but the only apps I see are the standard contacts, notes, etc. HELP!!!!!!!

  • I Can't access the data on my Time Capsule

    Everytime I try to access my data from my MacBook Pro running 10.8, my finder window closes.  I tried attaching my laptop using an ethernet cable and resetting the time capsule, but my problem persists.
    Any advice?

    Did you copy the stuff across before you upgraded to ML?? Or did you do this from ML?
    Did you do a full factory reset? That might help.. also do not use both wireless and wired connection at the same time.
    There are some issues with ML recognising the TC .. but I refuse to upgrade.. to such a poor networking OS.
    You might have to do some devious stuff to get at your files.. Like connect it to a Mac still running a decent networking OS.

  • I have Time Machine that I used to back up my old computer. It was running snow leopard. My MacBook died, so I got a new one which is running Lion.  how can I restore the data from the time capsule to my new Mac?

    I have Time Machine that I used to back up my old computer. It was running snow leopard. My MacBook died, so I got a new one which is running Lion.  how can I restore the data from the time capsule to my new Mac?

    In technical support, sometimes you have to make educated guesses. I'm sorry that you were offended.
    iTunes does prompt when it is going to erase a device, and the message is clear.
    She said in her message that she was able to successfully sync the old ipad. This indicated to me that itunes wiping the data was not an issue, because either it had been setup at the apple store (in which case it doesn't actually wipe the ipad despite saying it will*) (*based on a single case I saw), or because the itunes media folder was migrated.
    Furthermore, my solution was to tell her how to backup her ipad (by either doing it manually, or as a last resort, by deleting the corrupt backup -- that she couldn't access anyway.)
    I got that last part of the instructions from the "Taking Control of your iphone" book which I found samples of when I did a google search for "corrupted backup itunes".
    She marked this as a solution, so it worked for her.

  • I recently changed my internet provider and now I can't access any files on my time capsule.

    I recently changed my internet provider from Bell to Rogers and now I can't access my files on my Time Capsule. 
    When I click on Finder, it shows up as a Shared Drive.  Unfortunately, when I select it, the folder shows up blank.  I know the "Data" folder I'd created is there since Time Capsule is able to backup to it and iTunes is still downloading my music to that folder.  How do I fix this? 
    The wireless network works too since all my devices are able to connect to it.
    Help, please!

    NVM: Found out all I had to do was reboot my Macbook Pro.

    How can i change the data from one Time Capsule to another?

    Do you mean copy it?  If so, see #18 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions  You'll need section 2 there.
    If you mean something else, please clarify.

  • Can i access my photos saved on time capsule using my pad via my home wifi?

    Can i access my photos saved on time capsule using my pad via my home wifi?   I would like to edit my pictures on my ipad instead of my mac mini and have them stored on my time capsule.

    Sad that people steal stuff.. and..
    Sorry but there is no way windows can recover a TM backup. You have to use another Mac.
    TM is uniquely Mac.

  • Can I stream things directly from the time capsule to my AppleTv without using my computer?

    I have an older MacBook and I'm worried about the storage so I want to get things moved to a Time Capsule.  I was just wondering if I can stream things directly from the Time Capsule to the AppleTV without having to store them in iTunes on my computer and play them off of there.

    You cannot stream from a TC .. it is not a media device.. you can store movie files on the TC but you still need to run the computer to play them.
    Depending on how you connect this can cause dramatic slowdowns.
    A WD Live TV can play raw movie files from a TC.. because it is not a media streamer which is all the ATV is, it is a full media player.

  • I can't access the disk on my time capsule

    I have a mocbook pro and a 2tb time capsule that was bought abut a month and a half ago, it's fully updated and so is my macbook but I can't access the hard disk. Is there a way in which I can access it without having to completely like reformat it?

    Not sure what you mean by access the hard disk.
    Are you asking about Time Machine backups from your Mac to the Time Capsule?
    If yes, click the Time Machine clock icon on the dock and wait a few minutes for the Time Machine "Star Wars" interface to fully load.
    Use the scale at the right of the window to select the date of a recent backup that you want to see
    Then, use the Finder like interface to navigate and find the file(s) that you want to see
    Click Restore at the lower right if you want to Restore the file to the present, otherwise click Cancel to close Time Machine and return to the present time.
    Is there a way in which I can access it without having to completely like reformat it?
    Reformatting the Time Capsule will erase alll fo the data on the drive and wipe it clean.

  • Can you recover saved data on a Time Capsule that has died?

    I came home today to find that the green light to my Time Capsule was off.  Did all the usual fixers...and after going to the several posts on a DEAD TC...I guess I have latest one.  In addition to backing up my PC...I had a bunch of saved documents also.....can these be recovered or should I just can the TC?
    Thanks for any responses!

    With power supplies on ebay for $25 it is just as cheap and easy to unplug the power supply as it is to remove the hard disk and buy a cradle for it.
    Power supply. Replacement left sitting next to the old one right. The covers have been removed and replaced.. Just make sure you get the 34W supply for the 2TB drive. The early supply was 30W and could not handle it.
    Pull out the supply.. 3 plugs.. Mains in, Sata power and board.. and plug the new one in.
    Only because these are fairly plentiful and much cheaper now.. it might not even last long.. but at least to recover your data and erase and sell as a working unit that is fair enough.
    (not sure how long the post will last with pics of open TC??)

  • How can I view/copy data from one Time Capsule backup to another computer

    My MBP and MB both back up to Time Capsule. From the MBP I can see it's data on TC via my network but not the backed up data from the MacBook. How can I view and import MB data to my MBP from Time Capsule via AirPort? Thanks!

    Is the backup software Time Machine??
    You can open the TM backup as long as you haven't used profiles to backup. Or encypted it in latest Mountain Lion.
    See Q17 here. http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    You should read through all the stuff about using TM.. and restore in particular.. 14-18.
