No, the Time Capsule has no audio ports or jacks on the device.

  • HT1178 Can the time capsule be used with a pc running Windows Vista , 7 or 8 as a backup drive

    Can the time capsule be used with a pc running Windows Vista , 7 or 8 as a backup drive. If so what software do I need to buy?

    Can the time capsule be used with a pc running Windows Vista , 7 or 8 as a backup drive.
    Yes, on XP, Vista and 7. Have not tried 8.
    If so what software do I need to buy?
    Genie Timeline Pro does a very nice job...and it is similar to Apple's Time Machine.  It's not cheap though.  Check with the Genie folks for more info and compatibility with Windows 8.

  • Can the time capsule be used as both a time machine backup and NAS storage

    Can the time capsule be used as both a time machine backup and NAS storage?   I want to use the drive as external, wireless storage for all of my files so all my PCs, MACs and iOS devices can access the files.  Plus, I want to use the drive for backing up my iMac via time machine.  Can the time capsule device be used for both these purposes simultaneously?  If not, are the other suggestions on how I can do this?

    Can the time capsule device be used for both these purposes simultaneously? 
    It can, but is really not recommended. Sooner or later there will be a fight for space on the drive between Time Machine and the other files.
    If you have plenty of free space on the drive, you can do this......but.....have you thought about how you will back up the "other" files that are stored on the Time Capsule?

  • Can the Time Capsule be used just to back up on an existing wi-fi network?

    Can the Time Capsule be used just to back up on an existing wi-fi network?    We just set-up a new Xfinity wireless modem which is supposed to be very fast, but Time Capsule set-up instructions indicate we need to use the Time capsule as the primary internet connection.   True?

    My mistake. Meant to reply to snorris3. Text is repeated below:
    Can I still use it as a back up device?   My new modem is also the router.
    Yes you can.
    The best way (and really the only way) to set up the Time Capsule would be to connect an Ethernet cable from your modem/router to the Time Capsule.
    The Time Capsule will produce a wireless network by default, but if you don't want to use that network, it is a simple matter to turn off the wireless on the Time Capsule and use it only as a  hard drive for backups.
    I would be very surprised if the Xfinity modem/router would even come close to the wireless performance of the Time Capsule, but that may be another discussion.
    If you elect not to use the wireless on the Time Capsule, then you will be backing up over the existing wireless network that you already have.
    That would be a shame, since a third to half of the total cost of the Time Capsule is tied up in the wireless router portion of the Time Capsule. If you want to use the existing Xfinity wireless network, you could save yourself quite a bit of money by simply connecting a USB or Firewire hard drive to your Mac for backups. But, it's your call.

  • Can the time capsule be used as an external hard drive

    Can the time capsule be used as an external hard drive

    If you mean by usb to a computer no.. it is a network device only and has to be used via ethernet or wireless.
    It can be used standalone,, ie not plugged into an existing network.. but there are some steps required to make it work if you want internet connection at the same time. It is generally much easier to have the TC bridged into the network.

  • Can the time capsule 2TB be used as more memory

    Can the time capsule 2TB be used as more memory or is it just for backing suff up?
    Can you wirelss transfer video and music to your iPhone or iPad without using the computer?

    You can use Time Capsule as a 'simple' external harddisk, but keep in mind that the fastest connection with the TC is Ethernet which is slower than FireWire800 for example.
    Currently iTunes and a USB-connection is needed for syncing an iPad or iPhone.
    With the "PC Free" feature of the yet to be released iOS 5 (this fall...) this might not be needed anymore.

  • Can the time capsule work as a extra drive

    Can the time capsule work as a extra drive

    It is an extra drive that is being used for backup. That's what it's intended for. It's not really intended to be used as a storage drive, but you can use it in that fashion. However, backup and storage should be kept separate. If you need extra storage then buy another external drive but one the connects directly to your computer. Use the Time Capsule with Time Machine as your backup solution.

  • Can the Time Capsule record IP Security Cameras?

    Can the Time Capsule record IP Security Cameras?

    It depends.. I cannot give you a yes or no.. but generally no..
    TC is a dumb as a board hard disk in a router.. most cameras need ftp server to record.. there is no FTP available in the TC.
    But you will need to check the specs of the camera.. if it is able to write files to the TC as network device via SMB it might work. You will need to fix up any non-SMB compliant names.. ie all names must be short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric for it to work.

  • Can the Time Capsule be used for scanner sharing?

    I have successfully replaced my Linksys router with the Time Capsule and also hooked it to my USB HP 2200 all-in-1 printer. Works great except I can't get my wireless iMac or MacBook to see the HP all-in-1 as a scanner. The "network" printing works great via the TC.
    Has anyone successfully integrated with a USB scanner yet?

    I have this exact same problem, but only with a different printer/scanner (I even switched from a Linksys router). My printer is the Epson RX595, and as you stated, I can also print wirelessly to it from both my MacBook Pro and PC (connected wirelessly and via ethernet to the TC respectively). Now everywhere I've read is pretty much pointing to the "USB scanning not fully supported with TC", but I was wondering if Apple or Epson would have a solution for this in the future as I bought my printer not too long ago and don't want to have to upgrade just yet. I really want to keep it connected to my TC, since my PC doesn't have to stay on to act as a print server (previous setup).

  • Can the time capsule function like an external hard drive?

    Can I place files there I want to archive but don't need access to everyday? I want to consolodate two older external drives that I have to the time capsule.

    You can place files on the Time Capsule drive if you want, but there will be a conflict at some point in time if you are also using the Time Capsule for Time Machine backups.
    Drives do have a way of filling up much faster than you expected.
    If you plan to place "original" or "master" copies of data on the Time Capsule drive, you'll also have to figure out how to back up those files to yet another drive.  Time Machine cannot do this.

  • How many clients can the time capsule handle?

    I'm trying to research how many clients can be accomodated by the time capsule - anyone know?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can connect 50 devices and computer wirelessly to the Time Capsule, but you can connect more through Ethernet

  • Can the time capsule works without WLAN cable connected to my DSL router?

    Cna the Time capsule work without WLAN cable connection to DSL router?

    WLAN is usually used for wireless LAN .. plainly you mean WAN port ..
    How do you expect to get internet if the TC is not connected to the internet?
    The TC can work stand alone.. true enough but that will then involve considerable issues in setting up two different IP addressing regimes .. you can just bridge the TC and use it as WAP and switch plus hdd without having to route.

  • Can the Time Capsule work if the hard drive is dead?

    My Apple Time Capsule stop working yesterday.  I've tried resetting it using the various tips and I even called Apple support.  The light stays in the solid amber mode regardless of what I do.  When I try resetting it by holding in the reset button then powering on the capsule the light will blink (not quickly though) and when I release at after any amount of seconds it returns to amber.  I do hear a clicking sound (so the HD might be bad).  My question is should I be able to reset it and it show up in my Airport Utility even with a bad HD?

    My question is should I be able to reset it and it show up in my Airport Utility even with a bad HD?
    The device needs repairs. If the hard drive is defective it can be replaced. If you don't want to replace the hard drive, it is possible to wire the Time Capsule up as a wireless router only....but a repair shop will have to do this for you.
    If you have tried the Factory Default Reset a few times, unfortunately that's really all you can do at this time.

  • Can the time capsule function as a SAN that a pc can attach to

    I am working with a new client who is running both a Mac and a pc and using a Time Capsule for connectivity.  I know the time capsule will back up Mac devices and serve as a 'print server', but can it also function as a SAN type device for file sharing. He is also running Win7 in parallel for an app that required windows.

    TC can function as a file server to windows..
    You need to setup the TC to use SMB compatible names.. ie short, no spaces. pure alphanumeric. If you use wireless then both the TC name and the wireless name must comply.
    Also ensure you use have bonjour for windows loaded or better still the airport utility for windows.
    Set the file sharing section to correct workgroup can sometimes help.
    Also ensure you have correct access credientials.. or at least turn on read and write access.
    Remember .. there is no backup of files stored on the TC.. it is a backup device itself with no automated backup. There is a very slow manual full disk archive. That is all.
