Can I have two time capsules on the same network

Is it possible to have two TC on the same network, I have a 500Gb 1st Gen TC which I have replaced with a 2TB 4th Gen TC but still want to use the 500Gb. Is this possible and how do you set up?
Thanks

How do you want to use the old one? Is it simply for storing random files? I assume random files right that you wish to access/store/delete/share? If thats the case, just plug it in without connecting to anything.
You simply would connect to it this way - "Finder/Go/Connect to Server/10.0.1.1
You'll need to click the "+" sign after you enter that addy. Or better yet, go into the airport utilty for that device and assign it a special ip addy. That will make it easy to identify. Then follow those same steps. Viola, you will see the device in your finder and access it just like a portable drive but on a network instead.

  • Can I have two Time Capsules in the same network, use one as Time Machine and other to expand network?

    I need to purchase a divice to expand my Wi-fi network. I was looking at the AirPort Extreme, but a friend has a brand new Time Capsule for sale. So, for the same price of the AirPort Extreme, I´m getting the Time Capsule.
    I already own one and using it as Time Machine and wireless router. If I decide to purchase another TC would it have any conflict with the one that I already have?
    Is it possible to use one as Time Machine and wireless router and the other to just expand network and storage only (not as Time Machine)?

    Yes. The important thing to remember is that the "extending" Time Capsule must be located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from your "main" Time Capsule.

    Can I use 2 Time Capsules on the same network
    Posted: Jul 23, 2009 1:49 PM Reply Email
    Here is what I want to do. I currently have a time capsule used for one end of the house. Currently my 2 kids rooms are in an addition that I have run a cable from the time capsule to each of their rooms. If I want to give them wireless for that part of the house could I add another TC, for wireless and they can both backup their macbooks to that time capsule.
    So Can I add a 2nd time capsule to extend by "N" network, or should I just go with an AP express or extreme and let them each have their own HD backup for each macbook?

    Have bought many reconditioned (Refurb) product from Apple site and have always been happy with them. To date none have failed me and we have been Apple customers since 2006. With that said when you buy Refurbs make sure you know what model you are getting. The current TCs on the Apple site are last generation. The way to tell is to check the model number against the current one. Easy way to do this is to put both in the shopping cart and compare the model numbers. The Refurb model number is FB277LL/A and the new TC model is MB765LL/A. The first digits identify whether a Refurb or new, the rest should be the same if they are the same model number.
    Before you buy, now which model number you want and then check other sites to compare prices. I recently purchased a new TC on Amazon for a better price then the Apple Store Site. For larger Refurb purchases like MBPs, we choose to buy directly from Apple; but for peripherals we often buy from OWC, Amazon, and other sites. Hope this helps.

    Yes. Use separate iTunes libraries(launch iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down as needed), or different user accounts on the computer.

  • I need to have two time zones on the same iCal appointment

    I work accross four time zones, two of which do not observe Daylight Saving Time (DST). This means that when I'm booking my flights on iCal, it would be usefull to have two time zones in the same iCal appointment (Outlook, for instance, allows this). What I currently do is to choose one of the time zones as the iCal appointment and then I "translate" the other time to the one I'm using on iCal.
    This is quite a challenge, though:
    if I'm taking a flight from Luanda (WAT = GMT+1, no DST) to London (GMT with DST) I would like to book it on iCal exactly like it shows on the ticket , 21:00 (WAT) to 06:00 (GMT).
    Using the "translated approach", from May to October, this means 21:00 (GMT) to 06:00 (GMT).
    Using the same approach, from November to April it means from 20:00 (GMT) to 06:00 (GMT).
    If I include Jo'burg (CAT = GMT+2, no DST) and Frankfurt (GMT+1 with DST), booking flights in your calendar becomes quite a challenge!
    Does anyone know if this feature is planned for any future versions of iCal?

    Hi,
    This is not possible in iCal. The nearest thing would be to create two events, one for take off and one for landing.
    Also, this is a user to user forum. By posting here you are not guaranteed someone from Apple will read it. If you'd like Apple to know about your suggestion I reccommend you send them feedback.
    Best wishes

  • Can I have two Time Capsules and back up to both?

    Would it be possible to have two TC, one at each end of the house and have them share the same network wirelessly? And allow backup to each one independently, so as to have duplicate backups on two units?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    It may be possible with some work-arounds, but I wouldn't recommend it (time machine or apple doesn't support something like this). Backing up wirelessly and duplicating that backup wirelessly will take an incredible amount of time.
    I'd set up the time capsule as your main base station and use another airport (like the express) to extend the signal if you're having wireless connection issues.
    To make backups of the time capsule drive, the best thing to do is to plug a usb hard drive into it and use the archive function in airport utility. This copies the time capsule disk to the external drive which you can then move to another location.

  • Can you have two Enterprise CA on the same AD Domain at the same time

    Hello
    Can someone please help me with the following question
    If I have a Windows 2003 R2 Enterprise Root CA on the AD Domain can I also Add a separate Windows 2012 R2 Enterprise Root CA to the same domain.
    We do not use Autoenrollment on the existing 2003 R2 CA.
    Network guys want to introduce a Cisco BYOD (Bring Your Own Devise) solution using Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine) which uses SCEP/NDES and therefore need certificates from CA. The thing is the ISE recommend 2008 AD CS as a minimum
    Therefore I wonder if Installing a 2012 R2 Root CA that only provides certificates via the NDES/ISE solution would be a possibility. 
    I understand the Root CA Cert is held in a container under the 'Configuration' partition in Active Directory. Therefore can you have Two Root CA certs in the AD container at the same time for the same AD Domain/Forest?
    The idea would then be to migrate other services to the new CA and phase out the old 2003 R2 CA over time.
    Thanks All

  • Can I  use 2 Time Capsule with the same macbook?

    I am commuting between 2 locations every 2 months
    In one location I have a Time Capsule 1To working find
    in the other location I want to install a second Time Capsule to have backup here.
    Question is, when I will come back to the other location Macbook will recognize first Time capsule?
    Regards
    NG

    I am using 2 TCs with my MBP. As far as I've been able to figure out, the macbook will not automatically detect and switch between time capsules. I manually switch backup location using the "change disk" in Time Machine Preferences.
    I have no problems, but I am using one at work and one at home, so I am doing daily backups to each TC. I would guess that backups separated by 2 month intervals would take almost as much time as your initial backup depending on how many files have changed.
    Also, you may want to check into accessing the TCs over the internet so you'd have access to the backups at the other locations. Maybe another app would be better since you don't have daily access to both TCs.

  • Can i have two apple tv on the same home sharing imac

    I have apple tv in the living roon which i stream movies from imac via home sharing. Can i use another apple tv on the home sharing, use them both at the same time without any problems.

    Winston, what sort of set up do you have for 10 apple tvs? - I currently have 2 and cannot stream different movies successfully at the same time to both of them from a single macbook pro. I am looking at upgrading to a system with a macbook mini or server streaming different content to 3-5 apple tvs. Currently all streaming is on the same channel and via 2 airport extremes and a new express. Still finding the system very very slow.
