Can i turn off wifi on time capsule?

Trying to limit my kid's inline time, is there a way to control the wifi on my time capsule?
thank you

You have at least two methods:
Disable the wireless radios, or
Use Timed Access Control to limit the times certain devices (by their MAC addresses) have access to the TC itself.

Can I turn off Macbook while Time Capsule is archiving Time Machine backup to a USB drive?

My Time Capsule is archiving my Time Machine backup to a USB drive attached to it. I have initiated this process on my macbook (on the same lan with the Time Capsule), on which I am monitoring the archiving progress on the Airport Utility. Still almost a couple of days to go... Can I turn off my Macbook, or will that interrupt the process of archiving?

If LaPastenague is willing to do a "test", then we will all know more.
Opened my big mouth.
The archive is happening.. I turned off the computer it was setup from.. running Mavericks and latest utility once I got it started. I have been checking from v6 utility on Mountain Lion.. and it is excruciatingly slow. But is running.
I can check the progress but v6 utility is utterly and completely useless.. it continually shows the same numbers.
v5 utility does show it is crawling along.
v6
20min later..
Look, look, there is a tiny blue fleck in the progress bar!!
v5 utility shows the actual progress. Actually tells you total and amount backed up so far.
Amazing how advanced v5 utility is over v6.
The estimate of 10hours is probably correct at the present rate of progress. I suppose for 500GB, around 50GB/hr is about what we expect from TM backups etc.
I will post another picture in an hour and probably kill it then before I die of watching paint dry.

HT201250 Can I turn off router on time capsule?

Can I turn off router function in time capsule?

Try this ...
Use AirPort Utility on your Mac (located in the Applications > Utilities folder).
Find your Time Capsule there, click on it, and click "Edit".
Click the "Network" tab on top, then click "Router Mode". One of the dropdown choices is "Off (Bridge Mode)".
Will that accomplish what you need?

I can't turn off wifi with Control Center

I can't turn off wifi with Control Center after updated ios 7.0.6

It's running
I already checked dmesg and nothing happens. It works with Vista, so...
With my old laptop (it's the same model) brightness didn't work, and now this. I guess i'll wait for a new update

Can't turn off "Announce the time."

I have a MacBook 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, with 2 GB memory, with 249.2 GB storage of which I've used only 45.69 GB .
I recently uploaded Mavericks (OSX 10.9.4), and now have two problems.
First: I can't turn off "Announce the time." I schedule my MacBook to automatically turn off at certain time and before that I will de-select "Announce the time" but it won't turn off. I've tried doing it multiple times. I've tried to backdoor it via Notifications and ultimately did a "Repair Disk Permissions and verified my disk hoping that would help — to no avail. The only way I can get it to work is if I completely shut down the computer and manually start up. A simple Restart won't do; the computer has to be completely shut down for the setting to work.
This seems to be a Mavericks problem. I've never had this problem before.
Second: When my computer turns on (either manually or automatically) I have it set so the iTunes opens automatically with it. The problem is that even though the screen has iTunes on it Finder is front of it like some kind of invisible film. This prevents me from operating iTunes remotely unless I go and manually click the screen to bring iTunes to the front. How can I get it so iTunes is automatically "in front" when my computer starts up in the morning?

Boot into the Recovery Drive by holding down Command R when restarting.
Run Repair Drive and Repair Permissions using Disk Utility in Recovery.
Run Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs following steps described here **
Restart
Download and run the combo updater to refresh your OS X files.
OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1755
Open System Preferences > Users & Groups
Login Items.
Make sure iTunes is last in the list.

How can I turn off where every time I turn on iPad or mail it ask for password

I Have the iPad 4, after last update I changed my Apple ID and password, but iCloud won't change the ID but it allowed the pw change so every time I turn on iPad or go to mail it wants the password. This is frustrating as I'm the only one on here. Help how do I save PW so it's not always asking for it Thanks Susiecue

Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, and then click General.
Open the General pane of Security & Privacy preferences
2. Select “Require password...NEVER after sleep or screen saver begins.” You can adjust the amount of delay before a password is required in the pop-up menu.
From what I am aware, you cannot turn off the keychain.
I hope this helps.

Can't turn off WiFi Power Management with iwconfig

I had an issue with my WiFi connection dropping occasionally, and I found that my situation was the same as described in this part of the Wicd wiki article: <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wi … connecting>, so I used iwconfig to turn power management off, like it said. But, the disconnecting issue is still there. I think power management is still on, because of this:
[<...>]$ cat "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.1/0000:02:00.0/net/wlan0/power/control"
auto
[<...>]$ cat "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.1/0000:02:00.0/net/wlan0/device/power/control"
on
Yet, iwconfig still shows that power management is off:

Can I turn off the wireless on my Time capsule? Could I then use it as an XHD backup on a different wifi router network?

I would like to turn off the wifi on my Time Capsule, use another, more powerful router, but still use the TC as an XHD for backing up my files. Is this possible? thanks.

The TC is now and always a network drive.. but there is no reason you cannot turn off wifi in the TC and use it plugged into another router. The only thing I would say is that using the TC wireless can still be worthwhile.. if you can get it close enough to the computer, then either ethernet or TC wireless will prevent the backups from slowing your network..
If you are going to use it on only a single computer, you can plug it in by ethernet and setup as a secondary network.. but IMHO you may as well buy a USB drive and be done with it. The external drive is faster and more reliable for backups than the network drive.

Can't turn off Wi-Fi on Time Capsule

I would like to save electricity since I don't use the wi-fi on my Airport Time Capsule. I just use the data back-up feature. I can't turn off the wi-fi by going to System Preferences - Network. It says Status: Off but the Wi-Fi is in fact on. I can log on to the Wi-Fi network from another computer. Clicking Turn Wi-Fi On does nothing.
The menu bar says "WiFi: No hardware installed" My Time Machine program seems to work with the Time Capsule.
What am I doing wrong?
Hardware: Early 2008 Mac Pro, OSX 10.9.2. Airport Time Capsule 2TB less than a year old.

I get the same power consumption whether wireless is on or off....using an older 2+ year old version of the Time Capsule though.
I would not recommend that you power off the Time Capsule and power it back up on a regular basis. The Time Capsule loses all of its network settings on power down, then must get them all back again on power up. You probably will not go more than a few days before you have a problem with the Time Capsule getting lost on the network.
Might be a reason why Apple does not even put an "Off" switch on the Time Capsule, or allow you to power it off from a computer or AirPort Utility.
Personally, I think that continually powering off a device and powering it back up places far more stress on the electronic components that simply leaving it on. But, others have other opinions.

How can I turn off access to the internet at scheduled times?

how can I turn off access to the internet at scheduled times? I use an Airport extreme and several units to extend the range. Kids have multiple devices that I don't want on the network at certain hours. On the other hand, ideally, my wife and I would like to be able to access the internet with our devices after the kid's bedtime and during their school study time.

The question was the phone is under water - not muffled nor low sound. It is getting regular that my iPhone 4S and others I know get the sound distorted as though it is under water. I have reset the phone, turned off wifi (Apple said do this). What can be done?

Meg St._Clair
Thank you. I rang Vodafone and although they were not too technical - they suggested my speaker was broken and was probably interfering with the microphone sound out as well. So thank you for the clue - I must admit to not thinking of ringing my carrier supplier. Thank goodness for two things - it is intermittent and I am due an upgrade phone in 6 weeks. I can manage till then I hope with the watery sound from time to time.

Can't back up MBA on Time Capsule using Time Machine Via Wifi

Hi,
I can't back up MBA on time capsule using Time Machine via wifi. I bought the time capsule new Dec 2014. I was able to backup for the 1st 3 days. In less than a week time, a message came up every time I tried to back up: "Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to AirPort Time Capsule. The backup disk could not be found. Make sure the backup disk is connected or select a different backup disk". So, there's been no backup at all for almost 3 weeks. Wifi connectivity under Airport Utility is fine. Green light on the time capsule is on etc.
Please kindly advice what is going on with this time capsule wifi backup. Do I have to connect the time capsule with MBA with a physical cable to perform this job?
Many thanks in advance,
On Ki

Can i turn off the option that enables iOS 8 to connect to my apple tv without using wifi?

I am a schoolteacher and our school uses Apple-tv to project lesson contents. We have separated the students wifi network from the teachers wifi network, so our students won't be able to use the apple-tv's and disrupt our lessons.
Since the introduction of ios8, the separated wifinetwork doesn't do the trick anymore. Students can now use every Appltv in their vicinity to project whatever image they want. This is a problem.
Can we turn off the option that enables IOS8 to connect to apple-tv without using the wifi network?
Thanks in advance.
Marco

Unless buffering a rental/prior purchase to watch it should not consume significant bandwidth when connected.
Power wise it uses 6W at most.
You can't power off from the remote but you can set it to sleep -
Press and hold Select for five seconds (or go to Settings > Sleep Now on Apple TV (2nd generation), or Settings > Standby on Apple TV (1st generation)
