How to backup the files that are into the Time Capsule HD? is it possible?

Hi my question is not so simple...I think
I'm using a TC only as a router and a network HD
and I saved on it all my movies, tv shows and also my itunes library and iphoto library to share all this stuff also to my mac mini which is connected to my Plasma tv.
I wanna know if is it possible to backup with time machine the TC hard disk
because I don't know how to tell to time machine to backup not my macs but my TC.
I read this article that explain How to enable Time Machine on unsupported volumes
http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/10/how-to-enable-time-machine-on-unsupported-vol umes/
You think that if I activate this option Time Machine can read from TC and make a backup of it?

No, sorry, Time Machine cannot back up a network drive.
You can copy ("archive") everything on the TC's internal HD to a USB drive connected to it, per the green box in #Q6 Using TIME MACHINE with a TIME CAPSULE *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum. That's probably the simplest and easiest way, but it's also likely the slowest.
Or, see Kappy's post on Basic Backup, complete with links to the web sites of each product. I've also heard that Chronosync may work for this purpose.

I purchased a Maxtor Ext. Hardrive several years ago and cannot locate the fire wire. Since then I want to take the files that are on the Maxtor and transfer them to a new PC I purchased. What is the best way to go about doing that?

With your presentation open, click on each movie element and read the name in the Metrics Inspector > File Info.

I am going to have to write a technote about this, because it comes up a lot.
Flash Player itself is designed to play SWF content as a browser plugin or as an ActiveX control (when it's IE Windows).
There is a standalone Flash Player, but that's something Adobe provides directly as a feature of Flash CS4 Professional. It gets installed with Flash. We have made some standalone players available on http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, but not all (and I don't know why. Looking into it)
There are numerous 3rd party standalone SWF players out there though. Some designed to just play video, others that play full SWF. I suggest a google search of 'play SWF standalone' and read the results.
On the Mac, consumers who want to play SWF content off their desktop can use the Adobe Media Player. You can import a local SWF (and FLV and other video) and play it in AMP. Get it here:

That's Mac only, doesn't work on Windows.

On Windows 7, neither my quicktime or iTunes will start. This started after I installed the newest update. All the files that are needed are there. I recently updated Quicktime to see if that would work, but it didn't.

This started after I installed the newest update. All the files that are needed are there. I just updated Quicktime to see if that would work, but it didn't. I looked through some other discussions like this, and found out that all of my files are correct. Some people are saying that they needed to remove Filebot, but I can't find that on my computer. Help, please?

You should have imported all pics taken with your iphone to your computer regularly as with any digital camera.
Did you fail to do this?
You would need to import them if you can.

I somehow erased everything (all important dates) off my ical on my mac and I'm afraid that if I connect my iphone that it will do the same there. Will my iphone sync the dates that are on the phone and add them to the ical? Or will it delete everything

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

I created a partition on my iMac drive. I have trashed the files that were in the partition but I can not trash the icon. I tried with Disk Utility. Any ideas?

If I understand correctly, the partition will still be on the disk and therefore mounted on the desktop. You would need to remove that partition to remove the icon.
Be careful if you try this, don't upset the main Macintosh HD partition or you may lose the OS and your files.
And always have a full tested backup of your system before modifing disk partitions.

Tripped over cord and broke the piece that plugs into the wall

I've heard a lot about people breaking the piece of the power adapter that plugs into the PowerBook but I have never heard of anyone breaking the other end.
Last night I tripped over the cord and shattered the piece that plugs into the wall (Apple PN 922-5863) This is not the big white thing with the apple on it.. it is just the plug. The PB ships with a 3 prong 5 foot long alternitive so there is no emergency but I would like to replace it at some point.
I called Apple and they recommend getting a whole new apapter (85 bucks) which seems to be a tad extreme for a little piece of plastic that is completely seperate from the adapter.
There is a World Adapter kit for 40 bucks that contains one of these little guys. But again, 40 dollars seems a bit extreme for this little guy.
My question is this... This piece is a common part in Apple wall adapters.. it seems to be a component piece part of the iPod Wall adapters, PowerBook, iBook, AirPort Express, etc. What is the least expensive way for me to get my hands on one of these wall-plug-adapter things?
Thanks,
-cd

If it's the localised plug part that is broken you don't need to exactly replace it but in its stead use a standard C8 (figure 8) power cord. If you don't have one spare you can always get a really cheap one from most stores that carry electrical cables such as Radio Shack, Walmart etc etc.

Can Apple TV access movies that are stored in Time Capsule?

Can Apple TV access movies that are stored in Time Capsule?

The Apple TV looks for iTunes, which is likely on your computer.
I know of no way to "tell" the Apple TV to look for anything. It is pre-programmed to look for iTunes, iPhoto, etc.

Can I watch movies on Apple TV that are on my time capsule?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes, so long as the movies on your time capsule are part of your iTunes library and iTunes is running on your computer.

How to identify the files that are exported but still present in Oracle UCM

Hello All,
I am using Oracle UCM 11g on Windows OS.
I want to know that if i have exported the contents from Oracle UCM to external file system, but keeping the contents and metadata into the Oracle UCM. How one will be able to identify that the contents that are being exported? Will there be any attribute set for any such contents indicating that these contents were exported?

Hi Srinath,
Thanks for the reply.
I did not find the place where to check this?
On the content tab of the Repository Manager Applet, what is the column do i need to set for indication that the content is archived?
