I am setting up my Time Capsule for the first time, all of my connectiions are correct but, AirPort Utility is not recognizing my Time Capsule or my network?

Try connecting your iMac to the Time Capsule with an Ethernet cable to see if that allows AirPort Utility to "see" it.

Nas on airport extreme not recognized by time machine. same nas was previously used as time machine backup on different airport extreme. are there any configuration files that i can delete to fix this problem ?

Time Machine has been working just fine, but in the last week or two it has given up the ghost. I reset the connections to the drive, and it will basically save a few bytes of data and then hang.
Although Apple originally announced, prior to the release of the first 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBSn), that it would support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks, they removed that option before they did finally release the base station for sale.
Since then, Apple has posted (as you have noted) that they DO NOT support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks. As far as I know, they have not changed from that position and those who do these backups find that they become corrupted over time. Sorry, but it sounds like you just confirmed that for yourself.
1) Has one of the recent updates either on the AE (firmware) or OSX disabled this function?
No. Again, this feature has never been supported by Apple for every generation of AEBSn released.
2) Are there any changes I can make to get this working again?
If your data backups are critical to you, then you will want to use a different solution for your Time Machine backup destination drive strategy. I would suggest that you connect your WD My Book directly to your Mac in the mean time.
Your other options would be to either use a Time Capsule (which interestingly does support TM backups to AirPort Disks) or a non-Apple solution like the Drobo FS or HP MediaSmart server.

Hello GJS6,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to connect your daughter's iPod touch to the computer. I recommend the following article:

My ipod touch is now disabled after entering the wrong passcode too many times. How do I enable it again - it says "connect to itunes" but itunes will not recognize the ipod because it is disabled.

Just bought a 3TB Time Capsule for a small office. Will have 4 users with MacBooks. What would ne the best setup for time machine individual backups and internet sharing in a secure way?

Set up each Mac for Time Machine backups in the normal way. Time Machine will keep each backup separate on the Time Capsule, so users will only be able to see the backups of their own Mac.
Yes....there are convoluted workarounds that might allow one user to see the backups of another.....IF...they know the administrator password of the "other" Mac.
As far as Internet sharing, all users will have access to the Internet if they have a wired or wireless connection. If a Mac connects using wireless, it is possible to limit the time that they are allowed to connect to the network.
For example, you might limit the ability to connect to the wireless from say each Weekday from 8 AM to 6 PM.
With a wired Ethernet connection, you cannot limit access times to the Internet.

I am using an Macbook pro in conjunction with a Time Capsule. I back up all my aperture librarys on it, but how can i view these images that are stored on the capsule please ??

If you want to see what is in a file that is backed up by time machine then you have to restore the entire file. Having said that I have had good experience with Time Machine and individual files... if the file is there then all of it's components are almost for sure there. A way to get around this in Aperture would be to use referenced images. The images then still exist as individual files and can be backed up and restored individually. You would have to do so on a file by file basis though and your album information would still only be saved within the Aperture library.

My MAC is not recognizing my Time Capsule.

My MAC is not recognizing my Time Capsule. It's been 12 days since an automatic backup and it seems to be making more noise and vibration than normal. Also seems warmer than normal. When trying to select the Time Capsule disk, I get an error message that says, "There was a problem connecting to the server "Powells Time Capsule". Don't know why but the Apple Support website doesn't recognize the serial number. The unit is approximately 5 years old.

The serial number is really not important at this point, since the Time Capsule is at least 2 years past the warranty coverage period, and this would be assuming that you have AppleCare in effect on one of your Macs. If you did not have AppleCare, then the Time Capsule is probably 4 years or more past the warranty coverage period.
The Time Capsule is basically designed for about 3-4 years of use, so it is long past the time when you should replace the Time Capsule. Apple will not offer repairs on the device, even if you are willing to pay them. Even if you might be able find repair parts, the cost of repairs for a replacement power supply and new hard drive would likely run more than the cost of new Time Capsule with a brand new warranty.

HT201250 When migrating from time machine to my new hard drive, it migrates the first back-up I made several years ago. How can I migrate the latest back-up ?

When migrating from time machine to my new hard drive, it migrates the first back-up I made several years ago. How can I migrate the latest back-up ? I need time machine to migrate the latest back-up. Should I delete the older back-ups ?

As noondaywitch says, it should use the latest backup.
Where are your backups (external HD, Time Capsule, etc.)?
It sounds like there are two separate sets, and you're not connected to the right set.

HT1583 After the Burn, I tried to play the DVD on my iMac, but will not recognized the DVD. It worked on my DVD player connected to my TV. First time it happened. ok.

After completing the Burn process, I tried to play the same DVD to the same computer, but did not recognized the DVD media. It worked ok on the DVD player connected to my TV. I've been burning DVD for a quite a awhile, this is the first time it happened.

Hi
This usually depends on
• BURN SPEED - not set down to x2 or max x4 - BEST IS N OT BEST - it gives max burn errors = BAD DVD
• Brand of DVD used - MeMorex, NoName etc are known problem makers - I only use Verbatim
• Type of DVD used - DVD+/-RW and DVD+R and DL-DVDs - can give a variety of problems - I only use SL-DVD-R
• Low free space on the Start-Up (Macintosh HD) Hard Disk - also gives bad result
- interlaced SD-Material (as on old CRT-TV (tube)) - I never go less than 25Gb
- HD-material - then 4 - 5 times more seems to be a good safe minimum.

I set up an apple id for my 12 year old, a verfication email was sent, but google has locked her out because of age. How do I get the verfication email?

Should each person in my house have their own apple id and password?
Can each of the different ID's be linked back to my apple account so that when they purchase apps and music it will be charged to my credit card?

Ask Google... they locked you out of the email account.

Be sure you are checking the email account that you used to set up the Apple ID you used to create the iCloud account. Also, be sure to check your spam/junk folder as well as your inbox. The email you should receive looks like the image below. When you get it, click the Verify Now link.
If it still isn't there, try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right look for a link to resend the verification email.

The MacBook Pro will not allow me to cut-and-paste to and from or to click-and-drag to the external drive. I can copy-and-paste, but then I must send the original to the trash, which doubles the time and effort. Is there any way to cut-and-paste?

I have recently switched from a PC to a MacBook Pro.
I have a large number of documents and photographs on a multiterrabite external drive, backed up on a second multiterrabite external drive.
Both external drives are formatted for MacIntosh. This has been verified by agents at an Apple store and also at Best Buy in two different cities.
This is the problem:

Also, the MacBook Pro will not allow me to rename multiple documents or photographs. I can click-and-rename a single one, but this is impossibly time consuming. I can batch-rename in iPhoto, but when I transfer the photographs to the external drive, the rename does not transfer.
I’m reduced to using my wife’s Toshiba to cut-and-past, rename, and transfer documents. It works perfectly. Is there any way to do this on the MacBook Pro?
Thanks!

No, this is a philosophical difference between Apple and Microsoft. Apple believes that it's dangerous to cut a file in case the user never pastes it; in that case the file is lost. Microsoft seems to not have this problem (if I remember Windows correctly) because they don't delete the originating file if it's cut but never pasted.
Even though Macs have a lot of keyboard shortcuts, philosophically Macs have traditionally been mouse-first. This applies to file copy operations. In your case, what a Mac user would do is open the source window, open the destination window (on your second drive), and then Command-drag the selected files from the source to destination window. This is because a normal drag would leave the originals behind, while adding the Command modifier key tells OS X that this is a Move, not a Copy, so don't leave the originals behind.
(In addition there are different rules for drag-copying within the same volume or between different volumes. If you drag between two folders on the same volume, the files are moved. If you drag between different volumes, the files are copied unless you hold down Command to delete the copies on the source volume.)

Two problems in this case. First, batch file renaming is not built into OS X unless you build something with Automator. However, there are many utilities that can do batch file renaming which you can find at macupdate.com or on the App Store. Since I work with media I often batch rename using one of the media managers I have lying around like Media Pro or Adobe Bridge (comes with Photoshop).
iPhoto is a database front end designed to shield the file system from the consumer and let them concentrate on creativity and sharing. As such it is often a poor choice for managing files directly. When you "transferred the photographs" chances are you moved the originals, not the ones iPhoto edited which are stored in a hidden folder.

There will not be a way to do it exactly like Windows. As described above, there are ways to do it "the Mac way." If it is possible to remove judgment on which way is "better" you might find the Mac way to be acceptable, but of course sometimes we simply prefer what we're used to.
