How do I back up an iPad to a time capsule?

How do I set up an iPad to back up to a time capsule?

iPad is not designed to backup to the TC.. it backs up to cloud or to iTunes in the computer.. iTunes then backs up to TC using Time Machine.
You can install a file browser on the iPad. eg filebrowser.. and store some files.. but that is not a backup.
See apple doco on backup of ios.

HT1175 How do you back up additional hard disks to time capsule? Which disks etc. to you choose?

How do you back up additional hard disks to time capsule? Which disks etc. to you choose?

I can read your question a number of ways.
If you mean a disk plugged into your computer you wish to include in Time Machine backup.. just make sure it is HFS+ formatted and remove it from the exclusion list in the TM preferences.
If you mean a disk plugged into your TC for backup,
You can plug a USB disk into a Time Capsule as long as it is compatible.. and the disk is formatted HFS+, ie Mac OS extended Journaled.
You need a USB powered hub if you want to use multiple hard disks and even one might still need a hub.
Not all external drives are recogised but for example the Touro Deskpro works fine.
You can buy them up to 4TB.. how much added space do you want.
Also notice that USB 2 on a TC or AE is slow.. I mean half the speed of the same disk plugged into your computer so consider if speed is relevant to you.
You cannot use TM to backup network disks.. again I am not 100% sure what the question means.

Can I back up my iPad 3 to time capsule?

Dani backup my iPad 3 to time capsule? Also, can I move my photos from shutterfly to time capsule? Thank you.

The iPad (and iPhone) backup to iTunes on your Mac. Then when the Mac backs up to the Time Capsule, the backups are preserved that way.
Or, you can backup the iPad to iCloud.
See this Apple support document for details:

Cannot answer on your photo question. Suggest that you ask Shutterfly support if it is possible to copy files to a shared network drive.

How do i back up iphone and ipod to time capsule?

Set up my time capsule and go to go with macbookpro. Downloaded Airport to iphone and do not know how to back up to this network. Still backing only to cloud.

You cannot backup directly from iOS to time capsule. You can however download an app to access SMB device as a file server. The iphone and ipad are designed to work with itunes.. if you use it with a Mac and it is running itunes then the files will be backed up to the TC as part of the normal TM backup.

How do i back up my iphoto library to time capsule?

I was told I can back up my iphoto's library to my time capsule but I'm not sure how to do this. Any help is appreciated.

If you've set up Time Machine to back up your computer to it and haven't moved the library off the internal drive, it's already been done.
If you've set up Time Machine to back up your computer to it and have moved the library off the internal drive, ensure the drive holding it isn't excluded in the Time Machine pane of System Preferences.
If you haven't set up Time Machine, either turn it on or drag the iPhoto library from the Pictures item of your home folder to the Time Capsule manually.

How can I back up external hard drives to time capsule?

I own an iMac and have two external drives hooked up to it. I also have a time capsule. Is it possible to back up the external drives automatically or manually to the Time Capsule?

I don't think Time Machine would work, but SuperDuper! (to a disk image on the Time Capsule) or Retrospect, or another backup program could do it.

I know it must be easy...

And it was....very easy using Genie Timeline Pro.....but I haven't used a PC for a year or two, so cannot say that things are the same.
Worth a look....and probably worth the money....but not cheap.

HT201301 How do I back-up my iPad if it is currently running iOS 4.3.3?

How do I back-up my iPad if it is currently running iOS 4.3.3? I have a back-up of my photos, but want to back-up apps, etc before updating to the latest iOS.
When I connect my iPad to my computer with the latest version of ITunes, it doesn't give me the option to back-up my iPad. Also, since my iPad has an older iOS, iCloud is not installed.
Thank you

After you backup.
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

How do I back up my IPad to my laptop. It is asking for a password I am signed it

How do I back up my IPad to my laptop. It is asking for a password but I am signed it

Close ... before going for a specific Cisco app ... lets find out some details:
Host we need more details:
What is your server environment (Windows Server, or Mac OS X Server, or Linux)?
What security is implemented in your environment - as what is restricted (RDP for all or specifc credentials on all machines? Are you part of local admin group to the server you wish to connect)?
Does your environment Support CISCO IPSec connection? If so use Settings> VPN and IPSec tab to enter VPN details, if not then go with above suggestion. IF your restricted to RSA then either built in VPN settings or 3rd party app for RSA would suffice.
Finally, there are many RDP applications out there I use "Mocha RDP Light" (free minimal ads when launched not when connecting).

HT201250 how do I back up my ipad to time capsule?

My Macbook dosn't have sufficient hard drive space to back up my iPad. I am backing up my Macs on the Time Capsule, the Apple store staff told me that I would also be able to backup other decives to the Time Capsule. I have two non-Macs to backup on the Time Capsule:
1) iPad2
2) an external drive that stores my iPhoto library.

The iPad backs up to iTunes on your computer, or to iCloud. If you are backing up to iTunes, when the computer backs up, the iPad backups in iTunes are backed up as well.
It is not possible to backup the iPad directly to the Time Capsule.
To backup the external drive that is connected directly to your Mac via USB or FireWire....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Time Machine
Click Options
Here, you will see the list of items that are excluded from backups at the current time
Click the drive containing the iPhoto library to highlight it, then click the - (minus) button to remove the drive from list of excluded backup items
Time Machine will back up the hard drive on the next pass along with your Mac

How do I save my ipad on the time capsule ?

I would to save all data from my ipad on the time capsule. How can I do it ?

iOS devices like the iPad and iPhone back up to iTunes on your computer.....or.....to iCloud.
For more information on how iOS devices back up, see this Apple support document:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
IF.....the iOS device backs up to a Mac....and....the Mac backs up to a Time Capsule.....then the iPad backups on the Mac are copied and backed up over to the Time Capsule. So, the iPad would back up indirectly to the Time Capsule.
