Computer behind Time Capsule

Hello,
Is my question:
I manage Macs outside by DynDNS.org address.
When outside computers are connected by a cable I see the screen in VNC.
By cons, when the computer is behind a pillar Time Capsule, I see the IP address of the modem (even if changes every day), but I can not see the screen computer that has an internal IP !
I suppose I must put the internal address of the Mac (192.168.6.10) somewhere but where?
Thank you for your help because I turn around for a while.
PS: excuse me for doing the translation on the Internet because I not speak your language and is therefore even more difficult !.....
Best regards.

Templeton Yes, I did find (thanks to you) or the solution was primarily looking in "Utility AirPort from the AirPort Extreme.
It is quite "sharp" because the function is "hidden"! Must go to :
Internet,
Connection Sharing: Share a public IP address,
Go to NAT,
Enable port mapping,
Configure the port mapping .....
+ Click to select a service,
Choose Apple Remote Desktop
And to the internal address of the Mac.
I think that's not ???????
By cons on an AirPort Express, I can not find the same thing:
AirPort: Wireless,
Wireless Mode: Participate in a WDS network,
Internet Connection Sharing: Share an IP address Public,
Go to NAT,
Enable port mapping,
Configure the port mapping .....
+ Click to select a service .......
And here I find myself with this :
Description: NOTHING
Port number public: NOTHING
Private IP Address: 10.0.1.201
Number of private port: NOTHING
Best regards.

How do i use a Time Machine from another computer from Time Capsule with multibackups

Can Iuse a Time Machine from another computer from Time Capsule with multibackups

Not sure what you are asking here.
Time Machine is software on a Mac that is used to backup that Mac to a Time Capsule hard drive.
Are you asking if another Mac can backup to the same Time Capsule that other Macs are already using?
Or, if not....please clarify on exactly what you want to do.

Would using a Apple Time Capsules be easier to use as you can use the Airport Utility to set everything up? Would using encryption affect the speed / durability / life span of the drive in a computer or Time Capsule?

Would using a Apple Time Capsules be easier to use as you can use the Airport Utility to set everything up?
OR would there be better programs out there that would do more than Airport Utility on a non Apple drive?
Would using encryption affect the speed / durability / life span of the drive / Fusion drive in a computer or Time Capsule?

1. Time Capsules are the easiest device to setup for Time Machine.
2. Sorry this is unclear. There are a huge number of routers available that have far superior controls than apple routers.. some support Time Machine.. most don't. They negate your question 1. in being difficult to setup. And alot of 3rd party devices that claim Time Machine compatibility are unreliable.
3. Encryption is irrelevant.

My computer was stolen. How can I restore backed up files to another computer from Time Capsule?

My stolen computer's files were backed up to a Time Capsule. I would like to restore some data files to another laptop. How do I do this? Thanks!

Sorry to hear that!
You could use Migration Assistant to pull the data from the Time Capsule to the new computer.

Access files from old computer backup (time capsule)

Hello,
I had a MacBook Air that was stolen in a break-in to my apartment. I could not afford a new Air, so I bought a cheaper MacBook Pro. I've been using the Pro for a few months and just realized that I have a recent backup of my old computer (MacBook Air) on my Time Capsule.
How can I access this back-up to retrieve some files (pictures, documents) without doing a full restore of my new MacBook Pro and erasing everything on my new computer?
I tried using a program called "Back in Time" but it won't give me access to the Air's backup because it was a different computer.
Is there any program that will let me access the files on the Time Machine backup of my old computer so I can grab these files?
Thank you so much for the help!!!
Dan

Hello McCartyYO. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!

Please check out this excellent Time Machine FAQ article from our Discussions Time Capsule/Time Machine expert, Pondini: 17. How can I see my backups, or the Backups for a different Mac?

How to back up files on my windows computer to time capsule, How to back up files on my windows computer to time capsule

I bought a time capsule now I want to back op photos that are on my PC.

You keep posting but give no details..
What Windows version are you using?
Have you loaded airport utility and bonjour? This helps windows find apple resources.
Have you tried opening the TC .. it will probably not show up as a simple network resource because you have not set the workgroup in the TC.. go to the utility.. go to the disk file sharing page.. and turn on guest account for read and write access. Give the correct name WORKGROUP usually to workgroup.
Using Windows Explorer type in the TC address.. \\IPaddressTC or \\TCname.
If you hope the name is going to work, it must be SMB standard.. short no spaces.. pure alphanumeric.
You can then copy files, in standard way.. I recommend you create a new directory under the single directory .. DATA or whatever it is called.
Copy and paste, drag... same.
To backup use the now available directory as target for backup utility which must support network drives.. naturally.

Sync a 2nd computer from main computer's time capsule backup

I have a mac mini and a mac book. Time capsule backups the mac mini. The mac book was synced from the mac mini when I bought it. Now the two computers are no longer synced. I would like to re-sync/restore the mac book home directory from the time capsule backup of the 'same' home directory on the mac mini. I don't want to backup both computers. I would like to sync the macbook every now and then from the backups of the mac mini. Is that possible using time machine? Both computers are on the same network and can see the same time capsule in principle. But I don't see how to configure time machine to use the backups of the mac mini -- the source I would like to be primary. Any ideas?

Your suggestion is what I want to do. I don't think I expressed myself clearly in the original question. Thanks very much. So I tried...
When I select TM on the target mac with the "option/alt" key held down, TM complains that "the storage location for TM backups cannot be found" -- it offers the choice of canceling or setting up time machine backups. I think I don't want to setup backups on the target mac, so I then opened up disk utility app to see how to mount the TC onto the 'target' mac. So far I haven't figured out how to do that. DU only sees the local disks on the target mac, not the TC on its local network. Let me read some more on DU options if I can find the right docs. I may need some advice on how to mount the TC onto the target mac if I cannot find the info I need. Thanks again.

Can't add a second computer to Time Capsule, not enough space

I have a 500 GB Time Capsule and two macs (IMac and Macbook) that I would like to back up. My IMac is backed up, but every time I try and back up the mac book, it tells me I don't have enough space. I have read about deleting individual back ups on time capsule (I have some going back to August), but I figured there has to be an easier/quicker way. What are my other options? Are there settings I can change were it will allow me to back up the macbook as well without going in and individually deleting files off the time capsule? There is only about 30 GB of info on the macbook and 100 GB of info on the Imac so I should have more than enough storage.

Time Machine will, by design, fill up all the empty space available to it before it starts deleting old backups to make room for new ones. That's most likely what's happened to you.
One option is to delete a large number of the oldest backups via the procedure in #12 of the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of the +Time Machine+ forum. Note that you'll have to manually compact the sparse image to actually get the space back, as detailed in the pink box there.
The other is to erase the entire HD and let TM start over with both Macs (I'd be inclined to do the initial full backups one at a time, via Ethernet).
Use the +*Airport Utility+* app, in your Applications/Utilities folder.
Select +*Base Station > Manual Set-Up+* from the Menubar, then Disks in the tool Bar, then Erase.
If you have other data there that you want to keep, you should be able to delete the sparse bundle via the Finder.

VPN Server behind Time Capsule

I have a mixed environment at home, with several Macs, two Ubuntu servers and 3 Vista laptops the family uses. Recently I had the need to setup a VPN server on one of the Windows machines with standard PPTP/L2TP, nothing out of the ordinary. All my internal clients can connect to the VPN server just fine, however, I find no specific VPN passthrough option nor a port forwarding option for GRE in Time Capsule, thus, any external connection attempts have been in vain. Yes, I have tried this by dropping all firewalls, etc for a short period of time, but to no avail.
The time capsule is hooked up directly with my ADSL2+ modem, where RFC bridging is setup on the modem to allow Time Capsule to be my sole NAT devices.
Any insight into this, or has anyone else had success with this?

I did extensive testing with this last night but still managed to get nowhere (did fix another NAT-PMP on IPv6 issue I had though by enabling Tunneling on the Time Capsule -- another story but my time wasn't completely wasted ).
I'm just trying to get L2TP working personally... I think this uses ESP rather than GRE but the same principle applies. I disabled all 'Back to my Mac' services too, I felt these may be interfering with IKE/NAT traversal ports (I know it's a requirement to kill these for CISCO VPN client to work).
Which ISP are you with btw? I'm on BT.. You don't think they are the root cause in my case do you? Clutching at straws now i know.
Wonder id my AEBS functions any differently....

Restoring new computer from old computer via time capsule

hey
ive backed up something like 170gb onto my time capsule from my previous macbook pro. i now have a new macbook pro and want to give my old one to a friend.
is there a way i can access the time machine for my old macbook pro through my new macbook pro? or are they doomed to be seperate backups?
cheers
daniel

Hello daniel kitson. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!

Yes, check out the following Apple article: Restoring files from a Time Capsule backup, especially the section titled, "Restoring an existing Time Capsule backup to a new Mac."

New computer, new time capsule, how do I connect?, new computer, new time capsule, how do I connect?

I have a new Macbook Pro, and have not backed up anything yet on Time Machine. I want to do backups on my new Time capsule instead. How do I do this, and will it free up space on my MacBook? I have 22,000 photos and it is almost full. Thanks!

SImply plug in by ethernet to do the first backup, thereafter you can use wireless.
Use the airport utility to setup the TC on the first occasion but it should not need much.. your question indicates you haven't read the basic setup info.. there are links at the head of this discussion area to download them.. It is pointless to repeat what you can read.
Backup will do exactly that.. backup.. it will not save any space. (nor use any).
If you need to offload material from the MBP, the TC is not the place to offload it to.. strongly recommend you buy an external drive, plug it straight into the MBP and offload material to there.. then include that external drive in your TM backups..
If you put this material on the TC.. it has no backup.. and the TC has no way to back itself up.. nor can TM backup a network drive.

How to restore my computer from time capsule?

I think my computer has crashed so I need to know if or how to restore it from my tome capsule?

Read Q14-18 from Pondini.

I used an external hard drive for my backups via Time Capsule. I bought a new computer and I want to transfer all my old fonts over to the new one but when I go into the Font Library from the hard drive backup but my downloaded fonts aren't there?

I used an external hard drive to back up my computer using Time Capsule before I bought a new one. I am slowly transferring information fromt he backup to my new computer and I want to transfer over my old font book. When I go into the Font folder on the hard drive the only fonts that show up are the ones that came stock with the computer not any of the ones I have downloaded over time. Could they be downloaded somewhere else?

The answer to that would probably be "Yes." If you don't remember where your fonts were stored, you may want to search your backups for any of the font files you know the names to. See where that takes you.
Ideally, Font Book and other font managers will temporarily store the fonts you "installed" into the System when you run the OS. When you shut down, etc. they are removed and reloaded on restart. The permanent place fonts reside is where you saved them when or after you downloaded them. I typically create a Resources folder on the root level of the computer and place a Fonts folder there. Then I install fonts from there, and they are available to all users on that iMac.
Perhaps if you did not have that kind of a strategy, perhaps many of them are still in your Downloads folder?

Time Capsule "can't be found" as a hard disk in Snow Leopard

I've had a Time Capsule for a year and a half. No problems until I installed Snow Leopard.
Time Machine seems to work fine, my backups proceed regularly, but if I try to actually mount the hard disk and upload or download files from the drive, I can't. The path "My Computer/Network/Time Capsule" shows up in a Finder window, but when I click on the icon for the Time Capsule drive, it says "The alias 'My Time Capsule' can't be opened because the original item can't be found." I can "Delete Alias", "Fix Alias..." or "OK".
Clicking on Fix Alias leads to the file selector dialog box. If I select the drive, it claims that it is already connected. So the only available option in the dialog box is "cancel".
Clicking on Delete Alias gives the error message "The item 'My Time Capsule' can't be moved to the Trash because it can't be deleted."
Clicking on OK, naturally, accomplishes nothing.
I tried going to Disk Utility and repairing disk permissions and rebooting. Nada.
I tried connecting directly to the Time Capsule via ethernet. Didn't make a difference.
Help!!!

I'm having the same problem. Internet connection is fine; backups work correctly. But I get a message telling me there's an update I should install for Time Capsule, and when I click to install it, it tells me it can't find the hard drive.
I also can't print, although my printer driver is installed and the image of the printer appears. My printer is connected to the Time Capsule.
