How to see an EHD attached to Time Capsule

I want to store all my music on an EHD and point my iTunes to it so I can save space on my computer. I've been told that this is easy to do.
So I hooked up my LaCie backup to my new Time Capsule. The question is, I don't know how to see the LaCie so I can drop anything in there.
Anyone know how to do what I want to do here?
Thanks.

Thanks. When I opened Finder and clicked on the TC I see two drives. The TC & the LaCie. So, I assume that the password is already in the keychain.
If I'm right, the LaCie already started the backup when I plugged it in and turned it on. Because when I go into the files and subfiles and subfiles I find that the music in those files are up to date.
If this is true and the LaCie is already backed up then what I want to do is point iTunes to that drive so I can dump off music from my Macbook and save space.
I want iTunes, iPods, etc, to run off that EHD which I would like to dedicate to music only.
Do you know how to do this?

  • In SQL Trace how to see which statement getting more time .

    Hi Expart,

    > The ones in 'RED' color are the statement which are taking a lot of time and you need to

    No, that is incorrect, the red ones show only the ones which need several hundret milliseconds in one execution. This can even be correct for hard tasks. And there are lots of problem, which you will not see
    I have said everything here:
    SQL trace:
    /people/siegfried.boes/blog/2007/09/05/the-sql-trace-st05-150-quick-and-easy
    Go to 'Tracelist' -> Summarize by SQL statements', this is the view which you want to see!
    I summarizes all executions of the same statement.
    There are even the checks explained, the slow ones are the one which need a lot of time per record!
    See MinTime/Rec > 10.000 microseconds.
    Check all number of records, executions, buffer, identicals.

  • How do I control my airport extremes/time capsules w/airport utility over the internet without mobile me? iCloud has disabled this function.

    How do I use airport utillity with Time Capsule(or any airport extreme) over the internet without mobile me? iCloud has disabled this function. The mac's that I have not upgraded to icloud still see my routers over the internet with mobile me enabled.  Are these routers obsolete now or will there be a firmware update to use icloud?

    i want to do the same. i tried entering my @me.com account and does not work, but if I tried to go to icloud.com and using my @me.com works
    why?
    does the Airport express needs to be upgraded as well

  • How to erase the existance of a Time capsule

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to erase the existance of a Time capsule, like it never existed, because sometimes I can see remains of my old network, and I'd like to know how to reset all this,
    sincerely

    Welcome to the discussions!
    You will want to do two things to get the TC back to total factory defaults:
    1)Return all configuration settings to factory defaults
    2)Erase your disk. (Do this only if you want to erase all of your backups).
    Power down the TC for a few minutes
    Hold in the reset button and KEEP holding it in as you plug the power back in
    Release the reset button after approximately 10 seconds
    Your configuration is now reset to factory defaults.
    To erase the disk:
    Open AirPort Utility, click Manual Setup
    Click the Disk icon at the top of the setup pane
    Click the Disks tab just below the icons
    Click Erase. Choose your erase options only if you want to erase all backups.
    That's it.

  • My 2 TB Time Capsule's memory is full because it will not automatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zero backup of my two computers now.  How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and saves the new?

    My 2 TB Time Capsule’s memory is full because it will notautomatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zerobackup of my two computers now. How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and savesthe new?
    Neither my local computer consultant nor I have been ableto change any of the settings in Time Machine to correct this problem.  Working with the choices in the TimeMachine, there does not appear that there is any way to change the frequency ofthe backups either, so, after a year has elapsed, the time capsule is full, andmy only choice appears to be to erase all the current data on the Time Capsuleand start over, something that I do not want to at all let alone repeat on anannual basis.  My questions are:
    What can be done to have my Time Capsule delete old filesas it is supposed to do, so it has memory available to allow my computers toback up? 
    Is this a software problem that can be fixed online or isdoes this require a mechanical fix of defective hardware?

    How much data is being backed-up from each Mac?  (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
    Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
    Most likely, there just isn't room.  Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't.  Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).

  • How can I delete everything from my Time Capsule?  Disk Utility only gives me the choices of First Aid and Restore.

    How can I delete everything from my Time Capsule?  Disk Utility only gives me the choices of First Aid and Restore.

    How can I delete everything from my Time Capsule?
    Disk Utility would be used for an internal hard drive on your Mac, or for a drive that was attached directly using USB or FireWire.
    The Time Capsule is a network drive. Disk Utility cannot be used for this type of drive.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Disks icon
    Click the Disks tab below the icon
    Click Erase
    The "Quick Erase" option will only take a minute or so. This would be fine if you plan to keep the Time Capsule yourself.
    If you plan to sell the Time Capsule, you would want to use a more secure erase, like "Zero Out", which will likely take 4-6 hours or so since everything on the drive will be replaced with zeros.

  • How do I remove a backup from Time Capsule?

    How do I remove a backup from Time Capsule? It is taking up 250 GB on the capsule and I wish to remove it.
    I do not wish to erase the Time capsule since I have another backup on there I wish to keep.

    Then you use the TM application to manage the backups. See:
    A  whole  lot  about  Time  Machine for help with TM problems.  Also you can select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "time machine" to locate articles on how to use TM.  See also Mac 101- Time Machine.

    At startup hold down the Command+Option/Alt+r keys until you see a globe on the screen. Then use disk utility to partition and format the drive HSF+ and then select Reinstall Mac OS X. whatever version of OS X that originally came on your system will be installed and then you can upgrade back to Mavericks.

  • How do I transfer data from one time capsule to new time capsule when TC backs up an iMac and Power Book

    How do I transfer data from one time capsule to new time capsule when TC backs up an iMac and MacBookPro

    It is generally better to leave the old backups and start again.. unless there is something you particularly need.
    But if you desperately want all the old backups you have to copy the sparse bundles.. this will take very long time as it must copy via the computer..
