How do I save data from my iPad to time capsule?

I have filled up my iPad 2 and need to make space?

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.

  • How can i save a folder into my airport time capsule (2TB)

    How can i save a folders into my Airport Time Capsule (TB)

    Saving data on the same disk drive that Time Machine is using for backup is not a good idea.
    By having the extraneous data on that disk drive in the Time Capsule that will made the job of cleaning up for backup that much more difficult for Time Machine and usually causing it to fail when it can't clean up properly.
    In addition any extraneous data on the disk drive being used for Time Machine can't be backed up so it can be protected from lose.

  • How can i store files from a PC on time capsule

    How can i store files from a PC on Time Capsule

    Actually although the format on the TC is not NTFS but Mac HFS+, that is irrelevant as far as windows is concerned. The TC offers SMB protocol to the network.. so how the TC stores the files is totally irrelevant.
    1. TC is by nature not particularly SMB happy..
    Change all names, TC and wireless to SMB compatible. Short, no spaces, pure alphanumeric.
    Turn on the guest account to read write access.. assuming you don't have security issues.
    Set the workgroup correctly.. don't use wins server.. no body does nowadays.
    Note short no space names.. guest access and workgroup all set.
    2. Download and install airport utility for windows or just bonjour for windows.. bonjour should be included with the full uitlity but that is not necessary.
    3. Just doing the above when bonjour loads it should bring up TC as accessible.. if not, or you need to access it manually.. open windows explorer and type in the address bar.
    \\TCName or \\TCIPaddress .. obviously replacing the generic name with the actual one used. In my case. as per the above screen shot. \\TCGen3
    You will then see the main root directory of the TC.. data or whatever it is named..
    Create a new directory under the root directory for your windows files.. and copy them there.
    Note .. some issues can arise if you are using the TC for TM backups.. Please keep a large enough amount of free space available that TM still works.. pondini recommends using disk images.
    http://pondini.org/TM/TCQ3.html
    As long as you still have plenty of free space this is not an issue but TM may have issues when it fills the drive as it is designed to do.

  • How do I save data on my ipad?

    I think I came to the point of messing with my ipad2 too much. I now want to wipe everything and start from scratch, but I don't want to lose all my data. I am worried that when I try to delete an app I get a message saying that all the data related to that app is wiped too, so what will happen if I reset my ipad? Can I choose which data to save? Looks like now I have too much music, and I cannot update to iOS 5.1 because there is not enough free space
    So, how do I save all my photos, music, etc. on my ipad before resetting my iPad?
    Thank you

    Now I know what happened! I rebuilt the iTunes library, and now, when I connect my iPad, iTunes says that my iPad is synchronized with another library.
    I don't know what to do now! I don't want to lose my data!

  • How do you transfer data from one iPad to another when upgrading models?

    Hello.
    I am about to sell my iPad 1 and buy a new iPad.
    How do I save my old setup and keep my purchased Apps (music, etc)?... I already made a backup in iCloud, but don't see any menu to allow for restoring any or all my information...
    Should I deregister my old iPad before or after I reset it to factory setup?
    Is there anything else I should I do before selling the device?
    Thanks,
    Jacques

    If you only backup with iCloud and have never used iTunes, then there is nothing more for you to do. But you have the iPad original so I'm guessing that you must have used iTunes at some point. This is what I would do - if you still use iTunes.
    Backup the iPad, transfer purchases into iTunes, and sync one last time. If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.

  • How do you transfer data from one iPad to another after manual setup of new device?

    Okay so, i just got a new iPad air, to replace with my old ipad 2. I have already set up the new ipad, and backed up the old one. I went into the settings of the new iPad, and hit 'Restore from backup'. When i did this, it restored the ipad to the backup, but it only managed to get all of my photos, and three of my apps. None of my music was transferred, and neither was the rest of the backup. Now i cannot figure out how to transfer the rest of the data to the new ipad. How do i do this??

  • How can I tansfer data from old ipad to new ipad

    My daughter is taking my iPad 2 with her out of the country and wants to wipe it and start clean.  I have a new iPad coming but it may not be here before she leaves.  Can I put a backup of my current iPad on the new one?  How do I go about that?
    Thanks for your help.
    Paula

    Many thanks to you all.  I do currently have my iPad on iCloud but signing in to it is not as easy as they'd like us to think.  I couldn't even get into these discussion groups from my iPad because Apple insisted I had to make a new user name.  When I did that just to satisfy them, tho I"ve had this one for years, it then told me my login address already had a user name associated with it and I could not create a new one.  But, it would not let me in without creating a new user name.  Vicious circle.  I signed in from my desk Mac because it isn't on iCloud and no problem with my old sign in.
    Anyway, I will restore from back up.  I appreciate the help from all of you.

  • How do I save pictures from iPhoto iPad app in full resolution?

    When i import a large file 6mb to iphoto using itunes it become 1,2mb, maybe its the same to you and after edit it become 150-200kb
    It seem that iphoto auto resize the picture, dont know why iphoto didn't give us freedom to choose the resolution when exporting

  • How do I save files from my HD onto Time Machine?

    If I delete files on my hard drive to free up space (i.e., movie files that I want to save in an external harddrive), time machine will not keep these files for me on my external harddrive, since time machine just backs up what is in Macintosh HD. Right? How do I make it so Time Machine does NOT delete these files from it's archive?

    beccasanchezmartin
    How do I make it so Time Machine does NOT delete these files from it's archive?
    You need to seriously consider options OTHER than time machine for important data.  TM premise is storing a copy of your machine, its design and purpose is not for archiving important data youve spent years working on, despite countless people who in fact, and in error, use it that way.
    since time machine just backs up what is in Macintosh HD. Right?
    Correct, time machine is an entry level backup methodology, you need to consider something other than time machine for that.   You NEVER want to work off the premise of needing to delete things.
    Buy an external HD and store vital files on there, .....Time Machine is a sytem backup, NOT a data archive, nor a primary redundancy.
    Methodology to protect your data. Backups vs. Archives. Long-term data protection
    #1. Time Machine / Time Capsule
    Drawbacks:
    1. Time Machine is not bootable, if your internal drive fails, you cannot access files or boot from TM directly from the dead computer.
    2. Time machine is controlled by complex software, and while you can delve into the TM backup database for specific file(s) extraction, this is not ideal or desirable.
    3. Time machine can and does have the potential for many error codes in which data corruption can occur and your important backup files may not be saved correctly, at all, or even damaged. This extra link of failure in placing software between your data and its recovery is a point of risk and failure. A HD clone is not subject to these errors.
    4. Time machine mirrors your internal HD, in which cases of data corruption, this corruption can immediately spread to the backup as the two are linked. TM is perpetually connected (or often) to your computer, and corruption spread to corruption, without isolation, which TM lacks (usually), migrating errors or corruption is either automatic or extremely easy to unwittingly do.
    5. Time Machine does not keep endless copies of changed or deleted data, and you are often not notified when it deletes them; likewise you may accidently delete files off your computer and this accident is mirrored on TM.
    6. Restoring from TM is quite time intensive.
    7. TM is a backup and not a data archive, and therefore by definition a low-level security of vital/important data.
    8. TM working premise is a “black box” backup of OS, APPS, settings, and vital data that nearly 100% of users never verify until an emergency hits or their computers internal SSD or HD that is corrupt or dead and this is an extremely bad working premise on vital data.
    9. Given that data created and stored is growing exponentially, the fact that TM operates as a “store-it-all” backup nexus makes TM inherently incapable to easily backup massive amounts of data, nor is doing so a good idea.
    10. TM working premise is a backup of a users system and active working data, and NOT massive amounts of static data, yet most users never take this into consideration, making TM a high-risk locus of data “bloat”.
    11. In the case of Time Capsule, wifi data storage is a less than ideal premise given possible wireless data corruption.
    12. TM like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
    13. *Level-1 security of your vital data.
    Advantages:
    1. TM is very easy to use either in automatic mode or in 1-click backups.
    2. TM is a perfect novice level simplex backup single-layer security save against internal HD failure or corruption.
    3. TM can easily provide a seamless no-gap policy of active data that is often not easily capable in HD clones or HD archives (only if the user is lazy is making data saves).
    #2. HD archives
    Drawbacks:
    1. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
    2. Unless the user ritually copies working active data to HD external archives, then there is a time-gap of potential missing data; as such users must be proactive in archiving data that is being worked on or recently saved or created.
    Advantages:
    1. Fills the gap left in a week or 2-week-old HD clone, as an example.
    2. Simplex no-software data storage that is isolated and autonomous from the computer (in most cases).
    3. HD archives are the best idealized storage source for storing huge and multi-terabytes of data.
    4. Best-idealized 1st platform redundancy for data protection.
    5. *Perfect primary tier and level-2 security of your vital data.
    #3. HD clones (see below for full advantages / drawbacks)
    Drawbacks:
    1. HD clones can be incrementally updated to hourly or daily, however this is time consuming and HD clones are, often, a week or more old, in which case data between today and the most fresh HD clone can and would be lost (however this gap is filled by use of HD archives listed above or by a TM backup).
    2. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
    Advantages:
    1. HD clones are the best, quickest way to get back to 100% full operation in mere seconds.
    2. Once a HD clone is created, the creation software (Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper) is no longer needed whatsoever, and unlike TM, which requires complex software for its operational transference of data, a HD clone is its own bootable entity.
    3. HD clones are unconnected and isolated from recent corruption.
    4. HD clones allow a “portable copy” of your computer that you can likewise connect to another same Mac and have all your APPS and data at hand, which is extremely useful.
    5. Rather than, as many users do, thinking of a HD clone as a “complimentary backup” to the use of TM, a HD clone is superior to TM both in ease of returning to 100% quickly, and its autonomous nature; while each has its place, TM can and does fill the gap in, say, a 2 week old clone. As an analogy, the HD clone itself is the brick wall of protection, whereas TM can be thought of as the mortar, which will fill any cracks in data on a week, 2-week, or 1-month old HD clone.
    6. Best-idealized 2nd platform redundancy for data protection, and 1st level for system restore of your computers internal HD. (Time machine being 2nd level for system restore of the computer’s internal HD).
    7. *Level-2 security of your vital data.
    HD cloning software options:
    1. SuperDuper HD cloning software APP (free)
    2. Carbon Copy Cloner APP (will copy the recovery partition as well)
    3. Disk utility HD bootable clone.
    #4. Online archives
    Drawbacks:
    1. Subject to server failure or due to non-payment of your hosting account, it can be suspended.
    2. Subject, due to lack of security on your part, to being attacked and hacked/erased.
    Advantages:
    1. In case of house fire, etc. your data is safe.
    2. In travels, and propagating files to friends and likewise, a mere link by email is all that is needed and no large media needs to be sent across the net.
    3. Online archives are the perfect and best-idealized 3rd platform redundancy for data protection.
    4. Supremely useful in data isolation from backups and local archives in being online and offsite for long-distance security in isolation.
    5. *Level-1.5 security of your vital data.
    #5. DVD professional archival media
    Drawbacks:
    1. DVD single-layer disks are limited to 4.7Gigabytes of data.
    2. DVD media are, given rough handling, prone to scratches and light-degradation if not stored correctly.
    Advantages:
    1. Archival DVD professional blank media is rated for in excess of 100+ years.
    2. DVD is not subject to mechanical breakdown.
    3. DVD archival media is not subject to ferromagnetic degradation.
    4. DVD archival media correctly sleeved and stored is currently a supreme storage method of archiving vital data.
    5. DVD media is once written and therefore free of data corruption if the write is correct.
    6. DVD media is the perfect ideal for “freezing” and isolating old copies of data for reference in case newer generations of data become corrupted and an older copy is needed to revert to.
    7. Best-idealized 4th platform redundancy for data protection.
    8. *Level-3 (highest) security of your vital data. 
    [*Level-4 data security under development as once-written metallic plates and synthetic sapphire and likewise ultra-long-term data storage]
    #6. Cloud based storage
    Drawbacks:
    1. Cloud storage can only be quasi-possessed.
    2. No genuine true security and privacy of data.
    3. Should never be considered for vital data storage or especially long-term.
    4. *Level-0 security of your vital data. 
    Advantages:
    1. Quick, easy and cheap storage location for simplex files for transfer to keep on hand and yet off the computer.
    2. Easy source for small-file data sharing.
    Make a (some) Redundancy of data
    Secondary data on a single external HD or RAID array is not a redundancy, but a PRIMARY data copy.          First Redundancy takes place on a Secondary storage medium/locus. (both of these external of course)
    2nd level protection in any redundancy necessitates it "be unconnected".           Data ON the actual computer is not considered, ergo a single copy OFF a computer is just that, a backup / copy.  Redunancy begins as secondary to a FIRST COPY

  • How come I can't see my ipad with time capsule?

    When on my macbook pro and having the time capsule, i don't have visibility to my ipad on my mac? Why?!?!

    What visibility are you wanting??
    If the ipad has internet via the TC, then it should be able to backup to itunes in the computer.. otherwise the computer will not really see the ipad at all.. it is not a network share.
    The file structure of the ipad is deliberately hidden.. and therefore it does not see files on a TC or computer.
    You can load a filebrowser app into the ipad.. but that will still not enable the computer to see the ipad.. it is still not a network resource.. AFAIK.. I don't have ipad.. so check what you are trying to do with the more like this on the right.. or in the ipad section.

  • How to transfer backup file from old to new time capsule?

    I'm having trouble copying the backup from my old to new time capsule.  I tried using this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5097?viewlocale=en_US

    You need to point out at which point you are failing.
    You do need the two TC plugged into each other by ethernet.. do not even dream of doing this over wireless. So a computer is plugged into the primary TC as well.. the secondary TC is in bridge mode.. you then simply copy and paste the sparsebundle from one TC to the next.
    IMHO this is not a good idea.. you are much better starting a new set of TM backups on the new TC.. keep the old TC for a few weeks to make sure there is nothing you need to recover then wipe it.
    There are also instructions in pondini if you insist on doing it.
