How can i get the time capsule to use my mac's mac address

on some wireless routers you can get the router to use the mac address of a client connected to it instead of it's own.
Can i do that on the time capsule?

Sorry, but no. You cannot change (spoof) the MAC address on any of the AirPort/Time Capsule routers.

  • Can i get the time capsule to automatically back up my file from my Mac Book Air but have certain files which are only stored on the time capsule and not the computer? Then can i access these files only on the time capsule without connecting it?

    You can, but how are you going to back up those other files?  When (not if) your Time Capsule fails, you risk losing them.  See #Q3 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule for details.

    Not sure what you mean.  You have to connect a computer, either via Ethernet cable or wirelessly, to read or write to the disk. 

  • How can I get my Time Capsule to show up in finder?

    How can I get my Time Capsule to show up in finder?

    An alternate, and simpler method for most users is to open any Finder window, then look for the Time Capsule icon under the Shared heading on the left side of the window.
    When you click on the Time Capsule icon, a folder......named "Data", unless you have changed the name of the drive.....will appear to the right.
    Double-click "Data" to mount the Time Capsule drive on the desktop, where you can now drag/drop or copy/paste data to the drive.
    If the Time Capsule does not appear under the Shared heading when you open a Finder window......then you are likely using the Yosemite operating system on your Mac, and it will take some work to find it.
    In that case, Niel's method might be the better way to go.

  • How do I get the Time Capsule to run both 5GHz and 2.4GHz networks at the same time.

    How do I get the Time Capsule to run both 5GHz and 2.4GHz networks at the same time.

    Thanks for digging out the facts.
    You have a 1st Generation Time Capsule.
    Your model can produce two bands....either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz....but not both simultaneously.
    You would need a Generation 2, 3 or 4 Time Capsule for simultaneous dual band capability.

    You can create an array of clusters with one element being the time and the other being the voltage, like so (using the "Get Waveform Components" function):

  • How can I get the time for a simulate signal express vi waveform?

    I tried converting to an array and then indexing, but every index I try only gives me the y value. See attached VI for clarification on what I mean.

    You will have to keep track of that yourself.  You are sampling at 360kHz.  This means that each sample is ~2.8us.  You can easily get the time by taking that dt (2.8us) multiplied by the sample index and adding the time at which the first sample was taken.

  • How can I get my time capsule and airport express (as a network extension) working properly together?

    Hi,
    I bought a time capsule a while back and connected it to my modem, and it seems to be backing up my hard drives but I can't tell if I'm getting my wireless signal from my time capsule or from the modem itself, which used to before I bought the time capsule.
    It's bugging me because I'm trying to get my airport express to work as an extension to my network, and airport utility half the time can't pick up the express. I heard that it will only work of the time capsule is working as the base station,and I'm not 100% sure this is the case.
    Also, how far can the airport express be from my time capsule for it to be picked up? I tried resetting it which helped to start with, but when I was setting it up to extend my network it just told me that there was an error and to try again, which I did with the same result.
    Any advice would be much appreciated!
    Cheers

    Always do setups with ethernet.. setting up wireless via wireless is like cutting off the branch you are sitting on.
    You do not need the TC in the network to do the setup.
    Plug it by itself into the computer. Same with AE. But do each separately.
    Give the TC a different wireless name.. like TC.. then you will know the TC wireless is separate and different to the main modem router. Simply allow it to be extended.
    Plug it back into the main modem.
    Now do the AE.. set it to extend the wireless of the TC.
    When you do this check the signal level. The airport utility v5 has a full diagnostic of wireless client levels.. do not use v6 utility.. it is useless. The AE is placed somewhere in between the TC and the clients you want to connect.. it has to get decent signal itself to extend wireless. And there is no way we can tell you how far apart.. pick the half way point.. around about and suck and see. If it doesn't work move closer to the TC.
    Count the walls the signal is going through.. about 15% signal loss for each one.. if angle is acute 20%.. floors are worse.. they might be 20-25%..

  • HT1178 How can I access the Time Capsule HD from my PC?

    Hi,
    I bought the Time Capsule because I thought it was a easy way of creating a small home network with a shared HD and printer. The wireless setup was easy but everything else doesn't seem that straight forward. I soon found out that I could not just plug my USB printer. You actually need a WPS printer which was not clear in the product description. Anyhow, just need a new printer.
    The main issue for me is being able to share files between my devices (Apple and non-Apple) as well as share the HD. I cannot find a way of configuring my PC or TC so that I can access the TC HD from my PC. Has anyone been able to configure that?
    Thanks

    You can plug a printer in via USB.. but not all printers work.. nor does airprint . but that has nothing to do with the Apple router.. that is how apple designed iOS.
    What printer do you have?
    Getting USB printer working can be tricky because by its nature you are networking a printer designed for local connection.. not networking.
    To share printers and file sharing load the airport utility for windows into the windows computer.. that includes bonjour for windows which is helpful for sharing of apple network devices.. and there is a disk agent.
    That might get you in without anything else.
    No luck remember windows does not work well with the names apple uses by default.. make sure all names on the TC conform with windows networking.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    In windows explorer address bar type
    \\TCname or \\TCIPaddress (where clearly you replace the TCname with actual name or the TCIPaddress with the actual IP address).
    If that still fails... then you have firewall issues.. turn off all firewalls in the PC .. there can be several running.
    And make sure the PC is set to home as location . .not office or public.

  • How do I get the Time Capsule to automatly erase old back ups?

    I have a 1TB Master HD in my Mac Pro that I back up using a 1 TB Time Capsule. So far I've used just over 500GBs on the Hard Drive which has really stumped my Time Capsule because it comes up saying it needs 400 odd gbs to do a full back-up of my Master HD. So now when ever its on and trys to do a back up it comes up failed because it says it doesnt have enough room to do its thing. Arnt Time Capsules supposed to delete the older back ups once its full? I exclude all other HDs from the Time Capsules back-up but I cant workout what more I can do....I can understand it if a 1TB Time Capsule could only back up 900gbs of Data but I'm only asking this 1TB TCaps to back up 500odd gbs. Anything I could or should be doing? I dont use the Airport as I only bought it to do backups. And because I have a wireless router for the houses PCs, Apple cant even tell me why I cant back up wirelessly so I have to use an ethernet cable.
    Any advice or help would be much apperciated!    

    Time Machine has no problem automatically erasing old backups if your new backup is a normal size for an "incremental" backup. So it can handle things up to approximately 2-3 GB without running into trouble.
    If the backup is too large, then you have to decide whether to erase the Time Capsule disk entirely and start over with a new "master" backup and move forward.....or.....manually delete enough backups to create enough space on the drive....which can get tricky.
    See Pondini's excellent Time Machine - Troubleshooting, in particular #C4 and the pink box.
