HOW DO you FIND PASSWORD for Time capsule?

How do I find the password for a time capsule

Sorry but it is so diffiicult to answer this question..
Is this the wireless password. Or the admin password or the disk password.. or pppoe password, orr even the user password.
There are at least 3 and maybe 10 different passwords depending on the setup.. we have no idea which one you need.
Press reset for 1sec.. then the router will reset and you can change all the passwords to whatever you want.

This time write down the password.

    I need to reset password which i lost for Time Capsule

    It should be in the keychain in your Mac.
    If not reset is the only option.

  • Trying to connect wireless printer, asking for password for time capsule?

    Trying to connect new wireless printer and it's asking for my password for my time capsule.  I don't remember that I had entered one initially, but maybe I did and just forgot.  Any way to retrieve a password for time capsule?

    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click on Edit in the small window
    Click the Base Station menu at the uppermost top of the computer screen up where the Help, File, Window, etc menus appear

  • HT1175 how do you set the airport time capsule as the primary base station rather than as a network client?

    how do you set the airport time capsule as the primary base station rather than as a network client?

    The Time Capsule needs to connect to a simple modem......not a modem/router or gateway type of device that is often furnished by Internet Service Providers.
    So, the first logical question here would be......
    What is the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem"?

  • HT201250 Why do i have to use the password for time capsule every time i start my computer

    Why do I have to use thr password for time capsuel every time I start my imac?

    With hindsight, the previous response I got from Apple was just a way of shelving the problem.
    Having just had to reset my password after another 3 months, I contacted Apple again, and it happened that the senior advisor whom the phone agent consulted had had exactly the same problem as me, and had found that iTunes could fix it.  However when I spoke to iTunes they told me I needed to speak to Apple ID account security.  The Apple ID account security representative spoke to a senior adviser, then told me that it would be fixed after I reset my password.  However I am not convinced that anything was actually done, so I may be back here in another 3 months ...
    To modify Roger's advice, the solution I was given is: go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'All Products and Services' in the first column, 'iTunes' in the second column, 'iTunes Store' in the third column, then "Account Management" and "Apple ID account security", then "Talk to Apple support now". A complication is that the "Talk to Apple support now" option only appears when UK English is selected.  So you either need to select UK at the top, or find another way of making phone contact (the email link just went back to the person in iTunes)!

  • How do you set up multiple time capsules in my home?

    I have one time capsule for my information and my roommate has another.  They are in the same room.  How do I set them up so our information doesn't get confused?

    I doubt you will have confusion.. if they have different names.. then network wise they will be fine.
    ie You set up your TC named TCTom / TCJulia.. and the other person has his/her TCHarry / TCHarriet.. then clearly they are different..
    You can have wireless issues though. If they connect via the same network.. then use ethernet and turn off wireless. Or make a pact and share wireless on one. ie the TC can be plugged into each other.. but wireless only working on one.. they will both be equally accessible and work equally well.

  • Can I reset a password for Time Capsule?

    I have forgotten my password and cannot do a back-up without it. Help please.

    Start with this User Tip from forum expert Tesserax:

    If that is not successful, your next option is to perform a Soft Reset to reset the password(s) on the Time Capsule.  This Apple Support document will tell you how:

  • Forgotten password for time capsule

    Forgotten password for my time capsule

    Which one,, there are several..
    If you still can get into the TC.. ie you have not lost the basic admin password.. the airport utility will give you full clear passwords for everything else.. exciting eh real security.
    If you managed to even lose the admin password.. then I strongly suggest.
    1. Don't bother changing it from public.. then you cannot forget it.
    2. Soft reset the TC.. and magically.. all passwords are null and void for 5 min to give you time to change them all.. exciting eh.. such great security.
    Soft reset.. you press the reset button for 1sec. That means 1-4sec.. or less than a hard reset.

  • How do you reset password for mail in iCloud??

    Somehow my mail address has gone from Mac.com to me.com and now to icloud.com
    I still receive mails from Mac and me .com but not icloud.com, although when I now send a mail, it forces me to send it via icloud.com.
    This summer I was on my iphone and I tried to get to my icloud account and it told me to reset my  password for some reason, so I did, and then I couldn't access it. So now when I goto icloud it tells me to reset my password, which sends me an email that gives me a link to restting on apple but with message saying the link is invalid!!! Thus begins the crazy circle where I do it all over again with the same result. My IT guy is equally baffled. So now I can't get any mail, it's insane!
    Any suggestions.

    Your password for iCloud email is the same as for the whole of iCloud. You change it at http://appleid.apple.com - once you have done this you have to go to System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud and click the 'Sign out' button (on an iOS device it's 'Delete account' - this does not delete the account from the server).
    You then sign back in again using the new password. Your iCloud data will disappear from your Mac/device when you sign out but will reappear when you sign back in.
    You signature says you are using 10.6.7 - I assume this is incorrect as this is not compatible with iCloud: if so could you please amend it to prevent confusion.

  • How can you find patches for a specific product?

    Unless you have a patch number, it is a pain to try and find the latest patch for a particular product. In fact, it is a pain to find a product unless you have the name:))
    1. If you do not have the product name, but know the function/purpose, what is the best way to find the Sun product? For example, I want to start using SNMP. That is all the info I have. Is it possible to find the package name and required patches using the Sun site?
    The patchfinder is great if you have a starting number:))
    Thanks,
    Zeek

    The bi weekly patch reports are generally a good start.
    Do some keyword searches in those pages.

  • How do you find security for mac computer,iphone.&ipad?

    I understand from Kim Komando mac"s  are vunerable to virus's and malware. She stated awhile back that when mac's reached 15% of the market they would be under attack.  Also I think I read on her site that 600 thousand mac computers were attacked recently. Also iphones and ipads could be attacked.  Any one can read her messageboard but you have to be a member to ask questions.www.komando.com/messageboard.  and scroll down to macs........I am asking this because when reading in the support communities I saw an old conversation saying macs would not be attacked by virus's etc and do not need security protection. and I beleive that is wrong information...Does anyone know for sure??????? I have a macmini (intel (os lion, a 4s iphone and an ipad......

    There are no know viruses for OSX.  This is from the horses mouth - APPLE!
    Check out User Tip:   Viruses, Trojans, Malware - and other aspects of Internet Security and http://www.thesafemac.com/mmgMac Malware Guide.
    ===================
    Viruses:
    Are programs that earn their name by their ability to replicate themselves locally & often across a network.  Many attach themselves to to other programs.  When you launch one of these programs, the virus code launches as well & the virus goes about its nefarious business.
    Viruses are exceedingly rare on the Mac.  There are no known viruses for OSX.
    Trojans:
    Promises one thing but delivers another.  You can download a program but when you run the program, the contents of your computer are instead beamed to an underground data center in Kamchatka.  If you obtain software from reliable sites, you are unlikely to get a Trojan horse.
    Adware:
    Has an embedded advertising component - one that displays or downloads ads when you run the software.  Some adware is legitimate, part of the price of using a free program such as the Iconfactory's Twitterrific or Eudora for example.
    Spyware:
    Grabs data from your computer & ofen uses it for the purposes of evil, sending personal info to a baddie or when you're using your web browser, redirecting you to site you don't want to visit.
    Mac users have nothing to worry about regarding Spyware & Adware because in order for the worse forms to work, the OS must allow unrestricted access to its more sensitive parts.  The Mac OS doesn't.

  • How do I connect an old Time Capsule to look for data from a previous OS?

    Hello. I replaced my old Time Capsule with a new one a few months ago, and broke in the new Time Capsule with a fresh backup of a clean 10.9 install after migrating my user account.
    Today, I noticed that there were some folders full of personal data that are neither on my MBP, nor in my Time Machine backups on the new Time Capsule. I am hoping that these folders still exist on my old Time Capsule which I used with 10.8.
    I'm wondering how to search through my old Time Capsule and its Time Machine backups. Specifically, I'm wondering how to connect it to my MacBook Pro, and whether I will be able to search for my (hopefully not) lost data through the Time Machine interface, or through the directory structure contained in Backups.backupdb.
    Can anyone help me out with a plan to proceed?
    Thank you very much.

    1. Turn off Time Machine in System Preferences
    2. Unplug new Time Capsule
    3. Turn off Wi-Fi in the menu bar
    4. Attach old Time Capsule to power
    5. Attach old Time Capsule to MBP via ethernet
    6. Wait for old Time Capsule to appear in Finder > Sidebar > Shared
    7. Select old Time Capsule in Finder > Sidebar > Shared and Connect to old Time Capsule
    8. Select the Data directory
    9. Double-click on the .sparsebundle file that represents the volume that was backed up on the old Time Capsule
    10. Hold down the option key and click on the Time Machine icon in the menu bar and select Browse Other Backup Disks...
    11. Select the Time Machine backup disk you would like to browse and choose Use Selected Disk
    12. Browse old Time Capsule backup in Time Machine environment, restore data as normal, exit Time Machine as normal
    13. Eject old Time Machine backups (the .sparsebundle you mounted) under Devices in Finder > Sidebar
    14. Eject old Time Capsule under Finder > Sidebar > Shared
    15. Disconnect ethernet; disconnect old Time Capsule from power.
    16. Plug in new Time Capsule (it boots); turn Wi-Fi on (reconnect to network, if necessary); turn Time Machine back on in System Preferences
