How can recover a Time Machine backup deleted from my time capsule?

I made a Time Machine backup from my Time Capsule. Yesterday I entered to my Time Capsule to deleted some files and I made a mistake and deleted my backup time machine and empty the trash of my computer. Is it posible recover that Time Machine Backup? Thank you very much.

For most users, it is not possible to retrieve a file that has been deleted this way.
In order to do so, you would have needed to power off your Time Capsule immediately after the file was deleted. Then, you must open up the Time Capsule and remove the hard drive, place it in a special enclosure, and use special software to try to retrieve the data.
Even if you do this, there is no guarantee that you will be able to retrieve the file.

You need to get an external HD for the "overflow" of stuff that won't fit on your Mac.
Format it for a Mac (see #1 in Using Disk Utility), even if it says it's compatible.
Then copy what you want to the external HD. Most things you can just drag and drop; but for iTunes and iPhotos see: Moving your iTunes Music folder and Moving your iPhoto '11 Library.
Then let your Time Capsule back up both your Mac and the external HD. See Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #32 for info and details.

How can I use Time Capsule for backups and an external hard drive?

I have a large file/program on my iMacs hard drive that is 62GB and I would like to keep only things I need on my iMac. I have a 2tb time capsule currently used for backing up. It has roughly 1.66 TB free. How can I move the 62GB program onto my Time Capsule and still use it for backups? Also, is this stable? And don't worry about backing the program up because it came on 8DVD discs.
Thanks.

1. Mount the Time Capsule as a drive and drag the application over to it. If the application requires system components, those won't be transferred; if those are only data files, you may be able to drag them over as well and then create a symlink or alias to a folder enclosing their current location.
2. The application may work slowly if this is done. Note that Time Machine will eventually use up all the free space on the Time Capsule that isn't reserved by being allocated to a disk image.

How can I stop Time Capsule doing a full backup?

Hi guys
I had to restore my work from a Time Capsule after having a new hard drive fitted. Now Time Machine has started to do a full ... and very, very slow backup!
Is there any way I can get out of this given that it has been at it 2 days already and has only backed up 32.78GB of 74.89GB?
Please can you helpful folks who have the answer reply in words of one syllable ... I'm no techie wizz kid (no sort of any kid really).

You can set the TC to join the campus wifi but I do not recommend that method. You make the TC available to everybody in the process.. and it will be super slow. All files to and from your TC, then go via the campus routers and wifi system.
You cannot have two independent wireless connections at the same time..
You can use ethernet to the TC.. this is fastest and best method.. keeps the TC totally isolated from the network.
Or you can use a USB wireless stick in the computer to join a second wireless network.. I recommend using 5ghz as it is much faster.

How can I use time capsule to store and easily access photos?

I got the time machine to back up to computers but also I thought I could use it as a networked HD where we could store photos and easily access them. Can I configure time machine in any way in order to do this? Thank you.

Works like a charm.
Until you get a message that your iPhoto Library is corrupted. It will happen.....the only thing is that you will not know is when this will happen.
There are two kinds of users who try to run the iPhoto Library from the Time Capsule.......those that are having problems, and those that will have problems.
Question: Is it ok to now delete these huge (approx 30GB on 3 folders) from my macbook drive...?
Let's see.....you deleted the files from your MacBook.....so now the only remaining version of your iPhoto Library is on your Time Capsule.
When....not if...the Time Capsule has a problem.......what will you do when you you cannot access the iPhoto Library?

How can I make Time Capsule main source for music?

So as of right now my macbook pro has around 3gb of memory left. I bought a Time Capsule so i could store all of my music on it and clear up my macbook pro. I was wondering how i could set it up so the main source that itunes is getting my music from is the time Capsule. Thanks!

Sorry, but definitely not recommended.
If you move your iTunes Media Folder to the Time Capsule disk, when....not if....the drive has a problem.....you have no backups for your data. You lose all of your music.
A much better (and much safer) plan would be to add a USB or Firewire drive to your computer and store your Media Folder there.
Then, Time Machine will backup both your computer and the hard drive with your music files.
Now, you have "originals" on one drive and backups on another. That kind of backup strategy makes sense.
Apple's Support Document on moving your iTunes Media Folder is below. Hope you decide to stay safe.

How can i find a contact i deleted from my phone?

how can i get a phone number i deleted from my phone back?

Look in the backup of whatever account method you are using to store your contacts.
Or if you had a cellular telephone conversation with this contact, check your cellular telephone bill for that period. It should list the phone number.

Im using dlink DSL-G624T. HOW CAN I CONFIGURATE TIME CAPSULE FOR IT?

im using DLINK DSL-G624T. how can i configurate it for a time capsule ?

You can't back up to a router.
Your hardware shows a Time Capsule. If that's what you want to back up to, see #Q1 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule.
If you have another Mac running Leopard or above on the same local network, you can back up to a shared drive on it over your network. See #22 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions for setup instructions.
If that's not what you're trying to do, see #2 in that article for supported destinations.

How can I automount Time Capsul

I have a Time Capsule on my home network that I use, not only for backups (Time Machine on Mac and Norton 360 on PC), but also to store all my media.
I have setup iTunes on my iMac and both my PCs to access the media on the Time Capsule. This works really well. I have no issues at all with my PC's access to the Time Capsule the problem is with my iMac.
On my iMac the only way I can ensure that iTunes can access the media on the Time Capsule is to first open a Finder window and browse the directory tree to my media folder. After I have done this once there is no issue, but if it is not done (for example my wife plugging her iPhone in to synch just after logging in) iTunes says all of the media on the Time Capsule is in accessible. To remedy this I have to then exit iTunes, do the Finder thing and then restart iTunes.
I guess the issue is caused by the iMac not automatically mounting the Time Capsule disk. If this is the case, is there any way that I can configure my iMac to automount the drive so I don't need to open it in Finder before I access it with anything else?
TIA
Grant.

Hi,
Just found this on another forum. It worked for me.
Yeah, that's actually really easy. Time Capsule runs a Samba server and an AFS (Apple File Sharing) server in the background. You can connect to it using the "Connect to Server" feature in the Finder. I assume you've already used the Airport Setup Utility to configure your Time Capsule for file sharing. If not, do that first.
Then, use the Finder's "Connect to Server" feature:
Finder > Go > Connect to Server
Next, enter the address of your Time Capsule's AFS server in this format:
afs://192.168.1.1
When you click "connect" it will prompt you for a username and password. Use the login information that you entered when you set up your Time Capsule. A finder window will appear, giving you access to the Time Capsule's disk.
Depending on which version of OS X you're running, it may or may not have put an icon on your desktop for the mounted disk. You can fix this by checking the "Connected Servers" checkbox in: Finder > Preferences > General
To make it mount the disk automatically every time you log in, add a login item to your account. Go to:
System Preferences > Accounts
Click on your user and select the "Login Items" tab. Click the plus sign to add a login item and choose the Time Capsule Volume you just mounted.

TS1253 I am connected to internet through modem. How can I use Time Capsule as a wreless harddrive and connection to USB printer

Can I use a Time Capsule as a part of my network> I am connected to internet through modem and want to use Time capsule as a wireless harddrive and wireless connection to usb printer. How can I do that? Please help

This type of setup is not officially supported by Apple.
It might be possible to configure the Time Capsule this way, but please take a minute to consider a few things that you may not have thought about, as this is...frankly....the worst possible way that you could configure the Time Capsule.
Wireless backups will take twice as long as normal wireless. Why? The signal must make a "double hop".
Hop "one" would be from your Mac to the wireless router, then the signal must make hop "two" to get back to the Time Capsule.
In addition to doubling the time for backups to occur, this doubles the chances for an error to occur during a backup.
The Ethernet ports are not enabled at all on the Time Capsule when it is configured this way, so backup over much faster Ethernet is not possible.
The USB port is enabled, so assuming that the printer is compatible, it could be configured to connect that way. Keep in mind that only printing is supported. If you have an All-in-One device, advanced functions like scan, copy, maintenenance will not be supported.
So, do you really want to try this? There are no guarantees here that things will work at all.

How to recover iPhoto app which is deleted from trash

How to recover deleted iphoto application from the macbook pro

If you've emptied your trash, you will have to reinstall iPhoto. Since you have an early 2011 model, if your computer shipped with Snow Leopard, you will have to get your applications disk & reinstall iPhoto.

How can I restore the iPhoto app deleted from applications by accident?

I am trying to restore the app iPhoto that was deleted. I restarted the computer using the Mac OS X v10.2 upgrade Install disc 1 and the response was, "you have a newer version of this system on your iMac" or something like that. How can I reinstall the original app or even an updated version that is compatible with OSX 10.2.8 (6R73)?
Thanks

Use the restore disks that came with your computer - do a custom install of bundled software only

HT1178 How can I use Time Capsule to move music from one computer to another?

I want to move all the music I have on my old laptop (macbook) to my new macbook pro. How can I do this? Easy, simple, steps would be greatly appreciated!

Are you moving the itunes library?? That is entirely different to moving just music.
Apple have specific instructions for moving libraries..
And there is no need to use the TC.. other than as a switch and router.. share the folder in one Mac to copy to.
