How do I upload pictures to my blog from time capsule?

Hi,
I just started using Time machine, or time capsule (not sure what the difference is). I had to back up my laptop because I only have 185 GB on my computer. I'm a photographer so I take tons of pictures. I started backing up my computer to the time capsule and then had to delete the original files off my computer to make enough space. Currently I have 1 GB of space left on my computer. I need to delete basically all of my photos on the computer so I have more room to even load new pictures onto the computer.
My problem is I need to access these pictures in time capsule so I can load pictures to my blog or website. I know how to look at the pictures in time capsule by going to iphoto and clicking the file thing, but there must be an easy way to upload pictures to the web from time capsule.
Basically if I can't use my pictures to upload them onto my blog/website my business is doomed... Please help me!

Suggest that you consider a few things here:
The Time Capsule (which is hardware) uses Time Machine (which is software) to make backups of the original files on your computer. The reason that you need backups is to have a copies of your important data in two different locations.
The reason for this is that when....not if....a disk drive fails on either your computer or Time Capsule, you at least still have a good copy of important files on the other drive.
If...you move the "original" files on your computer to the Time Capsule drive......all of your images are on the Time Capsule.....and you have no backups. When....not if....the Time Capsule drive fails, you lose everything.
I suggest that you consider the following:
Add an external hard drive that will attach directly to the USB or FireWire port your computer and move your the iPhoto library to that location.
Then, Time Machine will backup both your computer and the external drive, so you have your "originals" on one drive and backups on another.
The bottom line here is that the Time Capsule and Time Machine should be used for backups....not for everyday use. With an external hard drive attached directly to your computer, it will be a simple matter to navigate to the image file using iPhoto and "export" it to the desktop or another folder for uploading.
The Time Capsule is not meant for this type of use.

  • How to allocate x-GB amount of disk from Time Capsule to back up two Mac?

    I have a 1TB Time Capsule, and two Mac - iMac with 320GB, and MacBook with 160GB. How can I allocate 600GB of the 1TB Time Capsule to back up my iMac, and 300GB of the 1TB Time Capsule to back up my MacBook? And leave the rest (around 100GB) just sitting around to act as a drop box.

    Hello kennethium. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    The sure way is to temporarily remove the Time Capsule's (TC) internal drive (voiding your warranty), and then, repartition it to three separate partitions of the sizes you desire. Finally, of course, reinstall the drive.
    The other way that maybe partially possible is to create a disk image on the TC, using the Disk Utility for a size your require as the "drop box." I don't believe you can use disk images in this manner for Time Machine backups. Time Machine, in turn, should leave this disk image alone. The disadvantage of disk images is they are not accessible by Windows or Linux clients.

  • HT4500 How long will it take to transfer 400gb from time capsule to my iMac using mountain lion

    I did a clean install on my iMac. Now I cannot access my backups. I can see the time capsule, but when I open time machine, I only have today  which is the newly installed system. I am now trying to use migration assistant to grab my files. I got to where I choose my time machine and entered my password. Now I don't see any action. How long will the transfer take?  My 500 gb time capsule is full. Should I be seeing something on my screen.

    This depends on what the connection type is for the computer to the Time Capsule - wireless or Ethernet, how much data are involved, what generation of Time Capsule, and whether the transfers are to an HDD or SSD.

  • How do I delete an iMac back up from Time Capsule?

    I am attempting to delete an iMac back-up (Bob's 20" iMac) which is located on my Time Capsule and I don't know if I'm doing it correctly.
    In the Finder, I have located the backup as follows:           Bob'sTime Capsule>Data> Bob's 20" iMac
    I right-clicked Bob's 20" iMac and selected  "Move to Trash"
    A small Trash window has been chugging on my desktop for about 36 hours which ststes "Deleteing Bob's 20" iMac"
    The size of the backup is 1.16 TB. Is this proceeding properly in which case I just need to be patient and wait for the process to finish?
    Or, is therw another method I should use to delete said backup.
    Thanks very much. 

    You are doing things the right way, so hang in there.
    In general....if you are using an Ethernet connection between the Mac and the Time Capsule.....data will delete at a rate of about 30 GB per hour, so 1.2 TB...which is 1200 GB, will take require about 40 hours to delete the backup of the iMac.
    If you are using wireless, unfortunately things will take, on average, about 3-4 times longer than using Ethernet. It all depends on the speed of your wireless connection.

    Hope that helps!

    This is not necessarily 100% correct at the current time.
    As Dropbox is encouraging people to set it up for automatic uploading of photos they gradually increment your space as you load more pictures for free at the current time.
    You do start with a fixed 2 GB but if you upload photos you will be awarded more free space.
    You can also open a free account with Flickr - you may have some upload limits per day but you can upload pictures there.
