You cannot backup network drives with Time Machine.
You can simply setup the TC in the network.. it is a shared drive.

    Can i use time capsule for external h drive and also for time machine?

    Hello, vascocaco.
    If I understand correctly, you're wondering if you can use your Time Capsule's internal hard disk both for Time Machine backups and as an ordinary drive. Is this your question?
    You can, but Time Machine backups may take longer.
    To do it, you should partition your Time Capsule's hard disk to create one volume for the backups and one for other files.

    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
    Type "move itunes library from pc to mac" or similar into the google search bar.

  • I synced my iPhone with iTunes, and it deleted all my music on my computer and my iPhone except for what I'd purchased using the iPhone. The rest of my music is still on my iPad, so how do I get it from my iPad to the computer, and back on my phone?

    The rest of my music is still on my iPad, so how do I get it from my iPad to the computer, and back on my phone? All my music is sitting there safely on my iPad, but whenever I try to sync it with my computer the only option I get is to wipe the iPad and replace it with the files on the computer---which is only a fraction of what I had originally. How do I fix this?? It even deleted my playlists, and I now only have some 200 songs left out of what used to be over 1000!

    It can not do that all by itself.
    When you plugged it in, iTunes said 'Oh goody! You got a new phone! Would you like to make it just like your old phone?'...
    You explicitly said 'Yes'.
    You can't undo that.
    No backup of the current state of the new phone was made. It was wiped and the last backup of your old phone was restored to it.
    Anything you had on the new phone is gone.

    Many thanks lllaass,
    The Touch Copy third party software for PC's is the way to go it seems and although the demo is free, if you have over 100 songs then it costs £15 to buy the software which seems not a lot to pay for peace of mind. and restoring your iTunes library back to how it was.

  • I have an issue with Acrobat, after a few uses, the program will not load, the only way to fix it is to completely uninstall the CS suite wipe the drive and reinstall the software, then after a few uses it stops working, how do i fix this?

    Not sure of an answer to your basic question, but it may be that you can run a repair (on Windows --> Control Panel>Programs & Features and run the repair on Acrobat). If that fixes the issue, at least temporarily, at least you will not be reinstalling everything -- a real pain.
    Next, open Acrobat and go to the Help to run the updates and be sure you are current. On some OSs, the updates are critical.

  • Set up to save directly to external Hard Drive so cannot have separate 'back up'I now want to reverse i.e save to internal Hard Drive and 'back up' on external 'hard Drive'. Please advise me how to do this.

    For backing up your data I recommend that you use Time machine:

    When you import images or create other data files, file them in the appropriate places on your internal drive, don't delete them and let Time machine back them up.

    Hey KEBENNETT, 
    It sounds like you've restored Windows on your PC and iTunes is no longer opening and running normally. 
    I'd recommend using the instructions found at step 4 and 5 in this article to repair or remove/reinstall your iTunes installation:

  • How can I archive photos in iPhoto to a hard drive and retain the Album folders and the Events?

    How can I archive photos in iPhoto to a hard drive and retain the Album folders and the Events?  I tried to Export the Albums but just transferred the files individually.

    If you want to maintain the iPhoto organisation then back up the iPhoto Library.
    If you want to export to the Finder, well you need to create a folder for the contents of an Album and expot to that.
    If you have an older version of iPhoto: Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events. This feature is built in to iPhoto 11.
    This User Tip

    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

    Thanks so much.  I downloaded Acrobat XI.  It's been "extracting" for the past 30 minutes (even with a fast wi-fi).  Hope this is not a problem.

  • Can I use my time capsule as a backup drive and a network share drive?

    I just got my wife a Macbook Air and I got a Time Capsule 1tb to back it up. Since the Air has limited storage I thought I could store her media files on there. I can see the Time Capsule in Finder and I can browse to it but I cannot drag and drop anything to it. It says the disk cannot be modified.
    I understand that the media would not be backed up but that's OK because I actually have it on another computer also. So basically how can I modify the TC disk so I can use it as a share and a TM disk?
    In my Macbook Pro 15inch I have a drive I use for both (USB) and it works great.
    Thanks in advance,
    S

    Mixing Time Machine backups and other data on a Time Capsule's internal HD usually leads to trouble. See #Q3 in [Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule|http://web.me.com/pondini/TimeMachine/TimeCapsule.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum) for an explanation and some workarounds.

  • Help!  In the middle of using an app my ipad1 will  shut down and return to my homescreen. Also while using Pinterest, the images will disappear and it will have to reset my ipad to return to using the app. Any ideas how to fix the problem?

    Any suggestion on how to fix the problem or what the problem is...would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

    Hi there,
    Here are my answer to your questions.
    1) What's causing this problem -- me, software, or hardware?  
    Depends are you listening or playing those songs online ? This Can be caused by Software or Hardware. but based on your description it sounds like that this might just be a driver issue
    2) How can I avoid it? (work-arounds)
    Reinstall SOUNDCARD DRIVER  or get a faster internet connection ( For streaming musics )
    3) How can I eliminate the problem completely?
    Reinstall the soundcard driver, or get a faster internet connection ( For streaming musics )
    4) Is there any way that the sound and internet are actually related problems, or are they just coincidental?
    Soundcard and Internet will be related to each other if you are listening or Playing those songs online. Since it needs to buffer first before you will be able to play the whole song completely without cutting off.

  • How to recover pictures I deleted from my hard drive and backed up with TM

    Hello all,
    2 months ago, using the TM for the first time, I decided to delete all my pictures from my MacBook Pro as they were saved with TM.
    Then, when I went to look for them in TM, they were gone as well.
    Anyway, I do hope, to recover them all?
    and.... how to store them so that they don't take so much space on my MacBook Pro?
    Many thanks in anticipation, I feel so useless with this all!

    TM does not retain files that have been deleted from the hard drive for more than one week. During the weekly consolidation files removed from the hard drive are then removed from the TM backup.
    If you are trying to use TM like a regular backup storage utility, then you've misunderstood how TM works. See the following explanation:
    About TM "Backup Drive is Full" Alert
    TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Data are deleted to make space for a new backup, but if TM is unable to delete enough files to free up space for the new backup, then you will get a disk full error. Normal thinning during a backup occurs during TM's periodic weekly and monthly consolidation backups. Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
    Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.
