I cannot find my Mac and other devices connected to my Time Capsule on the "Find iPhone" app

I replaced a three year old cisco router with a new 2TB TC. Now, none of the devices that used to show up on the "Find iPhone" app show up. They display as "online, location not available."  This only applies to the Mac, iPad, and iPod connected to the internet through the TC. The iPhones that connect through the TC show up on "Find iPhone".
I've checked the articles for any kind of "location services" or other settings that need to be changed but I can't find them. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry .. I misunderstood what the question was about.
Do you have the Apple ID set in the TC?
I have no idea if this is important or not, but the actual app seems to have nothing to do with the TC.. and everything to do with icloud. I cannot recall seeing the question.. you might do better posting the question with the developers of the app.

    That is correct.
    "Why is this a problem and how can i repair it?"
    Becasue this has never been a feature of iphone/ipod/ipad.  There is nothing to repair.

  • I can't see my time capsule in the finder menu

    I just bowgth a new airport extreme time capsule 2T and it´s working fine with the wireles network but I can select it in the finder menu to use it as a back up disk. ¿why?

    That's not the way of setting up your Time Capsule as a backup disk.
    Instead, you need to set up Time Machine. Open System Preferences > Time Machine > Select Disk, choose your Time Capsule and your Mac will start making backups to your Time Capsule.
    Also, are you sure you have bought an AirPort Time Capsule? Maybe you have bought an AirPort Extreme, and this one does not come with a hard drive, so you cannot see it in the Finder sidebar to copy files to it

  • How can i exclude my macbook backup on time capsule from other imac connected to same time capsule?

    we have several mac connected to same time capsule, how can i exclude one macbook backup from all the others mac accessing same time capsule?
    thanks

    Not exactly clear what you mean.. the TC will keep each Mac backup in its own sparsebundle.. it does this automagically.. The backups are not mixed.. all are kept separate.
    Or is this a security question.. you don't want people looking at the contents of the backup?
    You can increase the security of the TC.. but it is too late.. you should have done it when first installed. If you go to the setup you can change security (Secure Shared Disks) by selecting with Accounts.. the problem is you will lose access to all the existing backups. You really need to do a clean start.. create accounts for all the users and start again.
    Also note security is not a big feature here.. anybody with physical access to the TC can press the reset for 1sec and get access. It is a home device not a business device.

  • When clicking on Time Capsule in the Finder Sidebar, it doesn't connect.

    Once in a while when I click on Time Capsule's icon in the sidebar of the finder window, I am unable to connect to Time Capsule. Yet, if I use the "Connect to Server..." command, I'm able to do so.
    A possible problem is that there is something wrong with your IP address even though you are able to connect to the internet. Whatever the reason, this worked for me:
    1. go to Apple > System Preferences > Network
    2. Click on the Advanced button
    3. Find and click on "Renew DHCP Lease" usually under TCP/IP
    This has solved my problem. Now I can directly access Time Capsule from the sidebar.
    Another fix is to go to Time Machine under System Preferences, select "None" for hard drive, turn off Time Machine, then turn it back on and reselect Time Capsule as the hard drive to backup.
    All previous backups remain intact and nothing will be lost.
    What I suspect is that there is some kind of mismatch between Bonjour and the IP address. This may happen after I've restarted the Time Capsule or after I directly connect to the Time Capsule via ethernet cable and then later access it using Wifi.

  • Why are some inbox messages not appearing in Mail on multiple macs and other devices?

    My partner and I have an iMac at home and one at work.  We also have two iPhones and two iPads.  We only have a couple email accounts each and two for work set up on all six Mail applications.  For some reason inbox messages are not appearing consistantly on all six devices.  For example, I can have a new message from my Mom, see it at home and on my iPhone, but not on the iMac at work.
    Also, some messages I'd like deleted off my work iMac since they're personal, but I'd like them kept on my home iMac and iPhone.  Is this possible?  Is it possible to delete a message on one and have it deleted on all others?

    What type of email accounts are they? IMAP or POP.
    IMAP leaves messages on the server so you can get them from everywhere.
    With POP, messages are downloaded to your client and then removed from the server, depending on your settings.
    The iDevice setup for POP doesn't remove them from the server.
    I think Mail's default setup for POP is to remove immediately.
    If they are POP accounts, you can set Mail's preferences to leave messages on the server for a period of time so that you can retrieve them on multiple clients.

  • ITunes match does not work on my iPhone 4S, but is working across all of my other Macs and iOS devices.  All other iCloud services are working fine on the 4S - any suggestions?

    iTunes match is not working on my iPhone 4S; it works awesome across all of my Macs and other iOS devices (iPad 2, iPod Touch 4g x 2, and my wife's iPhone 4).  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

    It is not possible to "toggle back and forth" at will. If you associate a device with an Apple ID and you have iTunes Match enabled you must wait 90 days before you can associate it with another Apple ID. See this Apple KB article for more information: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

  • Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices.

    Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core (4cores)) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices. Does this need to be done through the Graphics card expansion or a additional card to be inserted?

    No. There is no way to upgrade any Mac Pro older then the cylindrical 2013 Mac Pro to ThunderBolt.
    The requirements of Thunderbolt require a totally redesigned motherboard and chip set rather any plugin cards. These motherboard were never developed for older Mac Pros.

    You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.

  • I have a macbook pro running snow leopard. Just recently I cannot view youtube videos and other online videos. I recently updated my flashplayer plugin and I believe that is the problem. Is the latest flashplayer plugin compatible with 10.6.8?

    I have a macbook pro running snow leopard. Just recently I cannot view youtube videos and other online videos. I recently updated my flashplayer plugin and I believe that is the problem. Is the latest flashplayer plugin compatible with 10.6.8? If this is so, I need to find an older flash player plugin to reinstall. I do not want to upgrade from 10.6.8 at this time because I have 18 yrs. worth of financial records on Quicken that I have read will not work with Lion and I've read bad things about running music programs on Maverick.

    1)  Quicken 2007 for Intel (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks) is a full featured app that can be downloaded from Intuit for $15 and will work with your data file if you are using Quicken 2005, 2006 or 2007 (if you version is earlier, let me know for more instructions on easy conversion):
    http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance-software/quicken-2007-osx-lion.jsp
    2) Partition your hard drive, or add an external hard drive and install Mavericks there and "dual-boot" to operate your music programs in Snow Leopard and experiment with them in Mavericks.
    DO NOT install Mavericks over Snow Leopard!
