so can someone please explain to me what it completely is, and is it useful for my needs?

i needed a 2tb hard drive
There is a 2 TB version of the Time Capsule....also a 3 TB verion if you need more storage space.
i don't want it to be wired to my mac, i want it to be wireless.
The Time Capsule would be wired to your Xfinity wireless router. 
Your Macs could access the hard drive on the Time Capsule using the Xfinity wireless network.
is it useful for my needs?
Yes, if you want to back up the data on your Macs over your Xfinity wireless network.

  • How can i save a folder into my airport time capsule (2TB)

    How can i save a folders into my Airport Time Capsule (TB)

    Saving data on the same disk drive that Time Machine is using for backup is not a good idea.
    By having the extraneous data on that disk drive in the Time Capsule that will made the job of cleaning up for backup that much more difficult for Time Machine and usually causing it to fail when it can't clean up properly.
    In addition any extraneous data on the disk drive being used for Time Machine can't be backed up so it can be protected from lose.

  • Can someone explain to me what a "card reader" is and how it is different

    from simply plugging my camera into the computer? Is it better than plugging the camera in? Thanks and I apologize for what must be a silly question.

    Not silly at all. A card reader is a little device, some are built into computer mice, that allows you to take the card from the camera, plug the card into the reader and download the images from the card:
    http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/lexar/300x-udma.htm
    The main advantage is that the reader is usually faster at downloading images than the camera.
    If you shoot multiple memory cards and download the images to the computer all at once it will prevent wear and tear on the camera plugging and unplugging the cards into the camera. Other than that, I don't see any real advantage. I get 250 or so images on my card, and that means I can download once a month or so. (Though lately I have been downloading every two to three days - without the card being full - since my wife has been taking pictures for her Summer Camp Newsletter!) I guess I should get another card, since I have come close to filling it a few times...
    So, if you fill up several cards at a time and need to get the pictures into the computer all at once, a reader would be a good investment. If you use a single card and only periodically download to the computer, you probably don't need a reader.

  • Can someone explain to me what the "loose hinge" issue is all about?

    my gf just bought a new MB and have had the pleasure of playing around on it for a little while. love it and it practically out performs my late 2007 MBP! the only con imo is the glass in front of the screen, but it's not my computer!
    i read on here about people claiming there is a loose hinge issue? i know if i close the lid to a certain point it shuts itself (maybe about 1/4 - 1/2 inch gap before the lid is fully closed), but i'm pretty positive that it's really just the magnets for keeping the lid closed.
    i mean, is it simply an issue of the magnets being a little stronger than what people are expecting or is the lid shutting on its own with a gap of several inches?
    anyways, the hinge on her MB seems perfectly fine.

  • Can someone explain to me what are the benefits of compound path when it comes to text?  I can understand one or two lines but a whole paragraph?

    Every year we do a fundraiser to help my job, but my co-worker is getting frustrated.  We receive outside files laid out in Illustrator, but the person who does the file sets all of the text using compound path. These aren't one or two lines of text to be manipulated but whole paragraphs of text.  This person does this every year, and it is time consuming if my co-worker can't manipulate a paragraph without going to each individual layer that has a letter. Is there a way to make these compound paths merge as one without altering the document i.e. make some element disappear. Any kind of help is appreciated.

    ikaika,
    As I (mis)understand it, you should simply ask this outside person to keep all text as Live Type, using a font that you have on your machines (in the exact same version) so there will be no font substitution issue(s).
    That way, you could get the job done without silly waste of time.
    Failing to comply would seem quite uncooperative.
    I presume there is no copyright question onvolved in this.

  • Can someone explain to me what the history state slider does?

    Hi everyone!
    Why use the slider when I can easily click a previous state from the list in the history panel?
    Does the slider have some extra function that I may have overlooked?
    Thanks for your help,
    It's been bugging me for ages.
    Kelly
    (using Photoshop CS5.1)

    I had to boot my old XP machine to fire up CS5 and remind myself of this feature. It's called the Active State Marker and merely shows the currently active history state. Some documentation indicates you move this slider to another history state to make it active. By why bother; just click a history state to make it active. This slider is no longer available in CS6 or CC because -- as you indicate -- it doesn't do anything useful.

  • Nas raid connected to my Apple Time Capsule Router

    Hi,
    I have the Apple Time Capsule 2TB router. I am looking into getting a Sans Digital  USB 3 SATA 6 5 bay RAID enclosure and adding at first 3 2TB WD RED HDDs. Configured as RAID 5.
    my question is this...
    Can I hook the Sands Digital to the Apple Router? Does the Apple Router support this configuration? I emailed Sans Digital but they did not know the answer.
    Right not I am using my ipad3 to connect to the Time Capsule router and it works great  I tried connecting a single HDD formated as Fat32 to test and that works great. The streaming from the apple router to the ipad is a little slow. this is streaming my Canon 60D mov files. The bit rate is just a little to fast for the 100mb wireless. Somebody like Apple needs to develop a Gb wireless technology. I can't believe the industry is not working on this. If Apple and others want the ipad to be a completely wireless device then this needs to happen, IMHO.

    It probably won't work. I have gone through this with someone else.. unless the raid presents to the TC as if it is a single plain drive it will fail.
    Use a proper NAS via ethernet. not USB.. ever.. even USB3. The amount of stuff involved in raid. just make it hard for the computer to handle. The NAS is self contained with full OS. It presents to the computer as network drive which is what you want.

    Apple have released the new AC version TC a few months back.. the AC version iPad will doubtless come out in the next revision or maybe the one after.. it depends on power consumption which is probably a lot higher than standard N wireless. If this has a big impact on battery life. For now the new AC version (which is supposedly gigabit wireless.. no wireless is ever half of its claimed speed of course).. will do you no good since the wireless at both ends must match.

  • Can someone explain how to set up an administrator account so that I can have my phone and my daughters have separate apple ids?

    I mistakenly updated to the latest version of iOS and ever since then I can send messages to my daughter and I receive them but she does not.  She has an iphone also and her phone is under my apple id also.  Someone told me that I could set up an Administrator Account so that she can still be under my account but she has her own ID and that will fix the problem with text/imessages.  I can't find anything on the website that explains how to do that.  Can someone explain that to me?
    Thanks!

    I'm still not clear on what you are trying to accomplish. If you have an iPhone and she does as well you should have your own Apple IDs.
    If you want to pay for any purchases she makes with her phone as far as apps/music goes than that is what Family sharing is for.
    In my case my Wife and I are setup for family sharing. When she purchases music/apps it charges my credit card. This setup also allows me to share my past music/app purchases with her and vice versa.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • Can someone explain the icloud to me please? Where are all my old pictures and how can I see them? Photostream only holds 1000 and when I sync my icloud to my mac it only imports what is on my photo stream.

    Can someone explain the icloud to me please? Where are all my old pictures and how can I see them? Photostream only holds 1000 and when I sync my icloud to my mac it only imports what is on my photo stream.

    When you enable photo stream on your Mac, in imports photos currently in your photo stream.  However, photo stream only keeps photos for 30 days, even though up to 1000 photos will remain on your device until you delete them.  When you enable photo stream on your Mac, you will only receive photos added in the last 30 days, as the others are no longer in your photo stream.
    If you want to get all your old photos on your Mac, save them to your camera roll (if they aren't already there) by opening your photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  Once they are in your camera roll, import them to your Mac as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
    Another option would be to create a shared photo stream containing the older photos and invite yourself (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).  Then check Shared Photo Streams in iPhoto>Preferences>Photo Stream and you will see this shared photo stream on your Mac.

  • I'm getting my "new iPad" on Friday.  I'm replacing my original iPad (iPad 1).  Since I will not be going to the Apple store to get my iPad, can someone walk me thru what I should do to set up my new iPad on Friday?  I want to transfer my iPad 1 apps etc.

    I'm getting my "new" iPad on Friday.  I'm replacing my "original" iPad (1).  Since I preordered and will be receiving my iPad directly I will not be picking it up from the Apple store, so no set up from them.  Can someone walk me thru what I must to do get my new iPad up and running.  I want to transfer my info, apps, etc. to my new iPad but I also want to pass on my old one to a family member who uses the same computer.  How shall I proceed?  Thanks!

    If you want everything that's on your current iPad onto the new one, then you can first copy all purchases off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. You can then backup your current iPad and restore the new iPad from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (which is one reason to do File > Transfer Purchases, if that doesn't copy them over then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519).
    The restore won't copy passwords onto a different device, so you will need to re-enter your email, router, and any website passwords onto the new iPad.
    Depending on what you want to remain on the iPad, you can then either leave it as it is or log out of your account on it (tap on it in Settings > Store) and then wipe it via Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings.
