I would like to back up my iPhone with Time Capsule, but I cannot find Time Capsule button to select in WiFi setting. iOS version is 5.1.1. How can I enable the access to Time Capule?

try FileBrowser app on Store. it gives you access TC on wifi as share drive on your iphone/ipad etc.

Set TC and wireless names to short, no spaces, no special characters.. ie pure alphanumeric.
Lock the wireless to fixed channels.. only 2.4ghz matters.. as iphone cannot connect to 5ghz.
Try 6, 11 first then 1. I think bluetooth may be set to use lower channels.
That seems to have fixed it for most people.

How can I Bkp my Iphone with Time Capsule?

How can I Bkp my Iphone with Time Capsule?

No, you will have to re-create the playlists manually on the computer. Did you somehow delete your iTunes Library and the content that exists within that library? If you attempt to sync the phone with an iTunes Library that does not have all the content that the phone has, then the content on the phone will be replaced with the content from the computer.

How can i connect plex app with time capsule

i have a time capsule 2TB and iphone 5s and ipad mini 2
i stored all my movies on the TC and i can acces them by imac and apple tv
i just bought plex for ipad and iphone and don't now how to connect to TC
i want play these movies by ipad by plex connected to TC but don't know how to
please help

i just don't know to acces the TC with the plex app i tried several thing like port forwarding but can't figure it out
The plex app is a client.. you must be running a plex server in your network..
https://plex.tv/ios
Since the Apple Time Capsule cannot host any media.. since it has no media extensions it is impossible to support plex server on it. You must run a plex server on a computer or intelligent device.. TC doesn't rate as it is a fixed router with nothing to help you.

Can I connect my iPhone through Time Capsule

I found out that I could plug the iPhone USB line in the Time Capsule for charging. However, I can't find the iPhone on my Macbook. I am wondering whether I could connect iPhone with my iTunes Library through connecting the iPhone USB line to Time Capsule. If so, I will then never need to plug out the USB line and charge iPhone or update it.
Looking forward to any answer. Thanks in advance.

The USB port on the Time Capsule is designed for wirelessly sharing access to things like printers and hard drives with other computers on your network.
Other than for charging, you'll need to plug you iPhone into a USB port on your computer itself.

Connect to TV with Time Capsule

Hi, I have a Time Capsule and a Macbook and want to connect the MB to my LG TV. Is there any way that I can wirelessly connect to my TV via the TC so that I can view what's on my MB on the TV? If not is there any other way to wirelessly to connect to the TV?
Thanks in advance

The TV is new but don't think that it it wireless, but wondered if i could plug a cable from my tv to the TC to "enable it to be wireless".
Not exactly a substitute for a wireless adapter, however, you could provide the TV with access to the Internet thru an Ethernet connection to the TC.
It is important to understand that the TC is not a true media server, nor unlike the AirPort Express, does not have any form of audio circuitry for audio streaming. It is however, capable of both file or printer server services.

"Connection failed" error with time capsule

I can't access my time capsule. I get a "connection failed" error. And yet, the WiFi still works. I've tried resetting and unplugging and re-plugging.

I've returned home after some time away, and it's back to the Time Capsule problem!
The Time Capsule Status icon (the clock symbol in the menu bar) was grey - I went into Time Capsule Preferences, chose 'Select Disk' and selected 'Data' as the back-up location (the name of the Time Capsule folder). I then chose 'Backup Now' and the status icon turned black & began turning - with message 'Making Backup disk Available'. A couple of times, nothing happened beyond this - and I received an error message.
However after restarting my laptop (note I have shut down and restarted a number of times anyway since end November) the 'Making backup disk available' message was quickly followed by 'Calculating Changes...'. Out of interest, Time Machine Prefernces says that Oldest Backup is "--" and Latest Backup is "--". After 5 minutes, the status changed to 'Calculating Changes... (1%)' and at this point I was able to open Time Machine, and move back to previous backups (most recent being 27 November). It went on to showthat it was backing up 24.5 GB, and began this process. Then the status icon switched to a black circle with warning triangle and Time Capsule Preferences now reads;
Oldest Backup: 27 November 2009
Latest Backup: Failed
The error message (in the icon) is:
Make sure your computer and the backup disk are on the same network, and that the backup disk is turned on. Then try again to back up.
Latest successful backup: 27/11/2009 at 22:17
Help appreciated!

Connection timeout issues with Time Capsule

I have a first generation 500 GB Time Capsule, with AT&T Uverse internet service. The device worked fine up until 3 weeks ago, at which time I received a "connection timeout" error when trying to connect from any of the computers in the house. At that time, the computers were showing that the wireless network was available, but I was just unable to connect. I could connect to the device using the ethernet connection, and the wired computer would still successfully backup.
I restarted the Time Capsule, and everything immediately returned to normal. Everything worked fine for about a week, and then the problem occurred again. The issue has been occurring more and more frequently, to the point that it now is only working for several hours before requiring a reset.
Has anybody experienced anything similar to this? Any thoughts on a solution to this?

Hi I had similar problems. I moved houses got my own cable modem and tried to use the TC as my wireless, as i had it in my other home. The connection would drop constantly and i was unable to use the TC as a wireless device, it would also freeze my computer (mac book Pro). After asking everyone for help i found that when i moved the TC next to the cable modem in the garage it all worked. Apparently the ethernet cable that ran from the garage to the living room was only using 4 of the 8 pins and thus was dropping the connection. i am now connected directly from the modem to the tc and it has not failed yet (cross my fingers). After all this was suppose to be wireless and thus i don't need to have it right next to my computer. The signal is strong and it has not caused any problems. I didn't mess with the settings after i did a hard reset on the TC. So far so good. hopes this helps.

Connecting iPad 2 with Time capsule via speedport

Hey guys!
Can I connect my iPad 2 with my Time capsule which is connected to my Router (speedport)? I don't want to Switch the wifi Connection between Router and TC all the Time.
I Hope you can help me with this!
Regards

Open the network preferences and make sure the ethernet is getting an IP from the TC.. you do not need to change any settings .. all you need is network connection.. if the ethernet is working just turn off airport for the time the backup is going on. Once you turn off airport in the MBP the connection will be forced to ethernet. You can do it more correctly by rearranging the order of preference for network connection.. but for now.. just turn off airport.

Share internet connection through iMac with Time Capsule

I have a scenario at work where I need to temporarily set another router as the DHCP server. I have a customer who has a typical office setup. They have an iMac which is plugged into a time capsule (TC). A network printer is also plugged into the same time capsule. I have had to move the WAN modem to where the wifi router is located in another room. The office needs to be able to connect to the new WIFI network while still having the network printer work. If I setup TC to "join another network" and put into bridge mode, I can no longer communicate with network printer. Can I choose "share internet" in OSX system preferences> Sharing on iMac, connect wirelessly through iMac and have TC function as a simple network switch somehow while being able to communicate with printer.
Thanks

First, before I get into too much detail: Is it even possible to set up a WPA2 network directly from the iMac without a separate router?
Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
Despite the fact that WPA2 encryption has existed for years, Apple hasn't seen fit to include that option in its "Internet sharing" feature.

Connection DV-2020 with Time Capsule?

Hello,
I have looked (almost) everywhere.
Does anybody know settings for TC in connection wth a Tele2 DV-2020?
I mean the option without bridging the TC?
Thanks in advance, Wouter

If you do not use voip you can bridge the TC.. second if.. your ISP allows pppoe client access.
I am not in Europe but looking at the details of the modem, it is standard broadcom and bridging the modem should not be difficult.
If you want to run both the TC and the DV-2020 as routers, then you will double NAT.. there is no way to get around that unless you buy a block of IP addresses from your ISP.
The TC will complain about double NAT but you can switch it to ignore. You can also use DMZ if the DV-2020 offers it.. look up the manual .. DMZ simply passes all unconnected packets to the DMZ IP address. This can help if not totally eliminate the double NAT issue.
Why do you particulary need to use the router in the TC.. it is nothing wonderful.

Devices (iPad, iPhone) no longer can maintain wifi connectivity with time capsule

My iPad and iPhone can no longer maintain wifi connectivity with time capsule. Time capsule has connectivity to internet via Macbook, but not other devices. This started after upgrade of devices to s/w 6.0. Does anyone know if that could impact connectivity?

Yes, this is often reported with iOS 6.. there are definitely more wireless problems.
I recommend you reset the TC in the following ways.
1. Change all names to SMB type.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. that includes the TC itself, wireless and hard disk. I recommend a different name for 5ghz so you can force clients to that band without auto voodoo affecting it.
2. Use WPA2 Personal security only.. 8-12 character pure alphanumeric passkey.
3. Lock the wireless channels.. particularly for 2.4ghz.. pick one of the channels, out of 1, 6, 11 as these are the only ones that do not overlap.. test each in turn for the best and most stable. TC should pick the best itself but that is voodoo and I am preferring to run the system without black arts.

Printing with iphone and time capsule router

I have an iphone 4 and a Time Capsule with router. I have my HP 8500 wireless printer plugged into time capsule. iphone says that it cannot find airprint printers.

Time Capsule is a combination wireless router and wireless hard drive for access to the internet via wi-fi with connected computers and with your iPhone, and for backing up connected Macs wirelessly via Time Machine.
Your iPhone can connect to the internet via your wireless network created with Time Capsule, but that is it.

Lost connection with Time Capsule (Office for Mac programmes run down)

My colleague and I work at the office with 2 Macbooks. Both are connected wirelessly to the Time Capsule, which we use as a shared hard disk. We use Office 2008 for Mac. Now Word and Excel run down often after of little things like doing a search or cutting and pasting. I get the spinning ball can only do a forced quit to end the program. This is frustrating and time consuming!
A friend told me to change my UID, cause my colleague and I both have the same UID (501) at our Macbooks. He downloaded Server Admin Tools to change my UID into 1001 with Work Group Manager. But when I arrived at the office this morning I didn't have a connection with the Time Capsule. To be able to work I changed the UID back to 501 again (but now I can't open excel document inless I drag them to the hard disk of my Macbook).
The friend is not a Apple professional so he doens’t know how to help me anymore. Does anyone else have a suggestion?

Temporarily, try connecting an Ethenret cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule
Open AirPort Utility and Click Manual Setup
Click on the word "Status" (2nd Line) and a window will open to with information about why the light is flashing amber

You can direct connect your MBA to the LaCie via USB 2 cable. If you have an Apple Airport Router you can USB connect the LaCie drive to the router and then use Airport Utility to configure it. Time Machine can access it either way.
