I changed my ISP, how I can Setting up my Time Capsule ?

Recently, I changed my ISP, how I can Setting up my Time Capsule again?

Hello. I jus tbought mine and will be setting up shortly. So I am only guessing here, based on how my airport extreme base station acted when I switched once. When you connect the ethernet to it, it should simply find the signal,a nd prompt you for the password information that you set up with the new ISP.
If not, please report back how it goes..

Are you using a v6 uitlity.. because it is a toy.. ??
Get v5 utility and then you can hold down the option key and select the right mode.
If you have lion, just install it.. For ML follow this.
How to load 5.6 into ML.
1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
2. Download and install unpkg.
http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
You cannot uninstall 6.1 so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.

I would prefer to answer in your post. as I have tried on two occasions to help.. so far this is the first time I can see you stated you are using Lion.
1. Did you download and install the 5.6 utility..?
I said to do it.. you never said yes.. I did that.
Please do it. .. you will get no place before you do.
2. Did you bridge the TC.. ?
If so it will work perfectly.. please post a screen shot of the summary page from the 5.6 utility. If something is wrong I can work it out from there.
3. Or ring apple support and get them to walk you through the setup.. there should be phone support for the first week or two.

How do I set up the Time Capsule without an internet connection

How do I set up the Time Capsule as a wireless hard drive without an internet connection. I am in a office situation in which I cannot access my work network. I need to be able to share files on the Time Capsule over the wire connection.

How do I set up my Time Capsule as backup HD only.

How do I set up my Time Capsule to act as back up external Hard Drive only? When I connect to my current network it slows down transfers between my 3 HD Tivos set up on my network to a crawl! I don't want it connected to my network!

Bridge the TC.
First of all download and use the real utility if you haven't already. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Open utility.. go to manual setup..
In the TC setup go to internet tab..
Down the page find connection sharing.
Select off bridge mode.
Update the TC.
The TC now is a client in the network and will act as a HDD.
Wireless is up to you.. but it should not slow the connection. Certainly you can turn it off completely.

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"?

How do i set up my time capsule wifi for many users

hello ..
i have problem.. as always
my time capsule is connected to dsl modem (off(bridge mode)), in modem we can get only 10 ip adresses and no more. so when there are 10 pc connected to our wifi, no more can connect.... how can i set up my time capsule, so more people can join our wifi...? is it even possible?
P.S.
1) to our wifi is connected printer, so everybody can print...
2) every pc uses time capsule as bacup place in time machine.
tnx

You often see this limit of 10 clients in wireless hotspots but I have yet to see it in an adsl modem.. most strange way to pay for a service that is really irrelevant how many clients you use.
Have a go .. I recently setup a TC to help a guy run his Roku.. and this setup worked well.. I have no idea if it can work in your case.
Lets say the IP you get is 192.168.2.1-10 .. doesn't matter what it really is. And the adsl modem is 192.168.2.254
(Assuming they are private addresses.. if they are public IP you can just use the DHCP and NAT. )
But go to the airport utility.. I think you need to run v5 at least to change DNS.. but you can do the same thing in v6 using static but no dns changes.
Now you set the IP of the TC manually.. This address might need to be in the dhcp range of the modem to work. You can set the DNS to same IP as the router address.. ie home address of the modem. Or you can use another DNS.. whatever you like.
Then set DHCP for clients that will join.. this can then expand the scope of addresses..
It worked without a NAT error.. although I am not sure exactly how.. on paper it should not be able to work but did.. have a go.. otherwise there is perhaps another way.. but it is complicated.
Give us an example from a computer plugged into the modem of what IP .. subnet mask .. Gateway and DNS you get. Then I can fine tune the values for it.

I've just changed my modem, and I can't find my time capsule

I've just changed my bigpond modem, and have joined all my other hardware to the new modem (Apple TV, iphones, iMac etc), but now my time machine can't locate my time capsule which was used as a back up. it just doesn't appear in Airport Utilities. Have rebooted everything, and the internet connection is fine, but that **** amber light won't stop blinking.

I'll guess that "bigpond" unit is either a router or a combination modem and router. You can probably get AirPort Utility to "see" the Time Capsule if you connect your Mac to it with an Ethernet cable. Then you can see why the Time Capsule isn't happy. If the two devices are too far apart to make a cable feasible, then do a "factory default reset" of the Time Capsule and reconfigure it.

How do I set up my time capsule to multiple computer?

There are two macs in my household and one time capsule which is right now set up only to my computer. How can I set it up for the other computer keeping the privacy for both? Thanks

Do you mean you want to back up two Macs to the TC via Time Machine? If so, Time Machine makes a separate sparse bundle disk image for each Mac's backups on the TC, so they're kept entirely separate.
Normally, when you Enter Time Machine, you see only the backups for the Mac you're on.

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.

How do i set up my time capsule with actiontec q1000/century link dsl

how do i port forward, etc

The Actiontec Q1000 is a modem/router, so it is the Actiontec that would be the device that would need to be setup for port forwarding....not the Time Capsule.
Please contact your ISP or Actiontec for information on how to set up port forwarding on the Q1000.
The Time Capsule would be in Bridge Mode, meaning that ports are already open, so it will simply pass the settings that it receives from the Actiontec through to connected devices.

How do i set up my time capsule with windows

How do I set up my airport time capsule using Windows 7 home premium?

If you have the newest AC model TC.. you might be in trouble. Apple specifically state you need v6 airport utility. They do not provide v6 with windows.. only Mac and iOS. If you happen to have iphone, ipad even itouch, you can download and install the airport utility and use that.. you just cannot do the setup from windows.

How do I set up my time capsule with my PC and BT home hub

Hi, I really need help.
I have a new time machine I am having trouble setting up. I have a BT Home Hub that I have hard wired to the TC to the WAN port. I have Connected my PC to the Ethernet port. The PC will not find the TC.
I also need to Wi-Fi attach other laptop PCs to it.
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP?
Ade.

You might have an IP collision ..
unplug the wan connection to the home hub..
Restart the Time Capsule with a single ethernet connection to a pc plugged into its LAN port.
Make sure the pc is getting an ip address. Open airport utility and see if you can now access the TC.. !
When you say PC do you mean windows machine?
Windows can have some issues accessing the TC.. especially if you have the windows computer on win7 running homegroup.. which is a wretched piece of incestous connection between win7 exclusively.

How do I set up my time capsule as wireless external hard drive?

I have a new iMac and and a new 2 TB Time Capsule. I bought the Time Capsule to not only use with time machine but also as a wireless external hard drive. What is the best way to set this up from the beginning? Do I just create a new folder under the data folder in my Time Capsule and then start dragging and dropping files? I want to make sure I have the best setup from the beginning. Thanks

My opinion is that the Time Capsule should really be used as it was designed....for Time Machine backups....not as an "everyday" hard drive.
For one thing, access to files on the Time Capsule drive if you place movies, music, images, etc. on the drive is going to be very slow....and really slow if you plan to connect using wireless. Expect lag, stutters, signal drops, etc.
That brings up another question.....if you move your movies, music, images, etc over to the Time Capsule drive.....how will you back up this data? Surely, you plan to keep "original" versions on one drive and "copies" on another to be safe, correct?
My suggestion would be to add an external USB or FireWire drive and attach it directly to your Mac. Move your movies, music, etc. to that drive. Access will be very fast to your media this way. Highly recommended.
Then, Time Machine will backup both your Mac and the hard drive.....so you have backups of everything. Make sense?
Although I do not recommend that you move your files over to the Time Capsule drive based on the information that you have provided so far....If you still want to setup the disk image on the Time Capsule drive, follow these basic steps:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > Disk Utility
Click New Image at the top of the window
Make sure that the little arrow next to the Save As box is pointing up
Navigate through the Finder like interace to open up the Time Capsule drive
Name the disk image and select the size that you want
Click Create
Allow a very long time for the image to created.

How do I set up my time capsule as an internal only network.

I currently have a time capsule that was attached via ethernet cable to my wireless router (Brighthouse network) and worked fine with Time Machine.
I want to disconect it from the router (no connection via ethernet cable or wireless) and configure it to be a separate network I can connet to and use to access the Time Capsule hard drive. So I want to establish a wirless base station that creates a new internal only network, not connected to the internet, that gives me access to the hard drive using Time Capsule.
I recognize that when I connet to the Timne Capsule in this configuration I would have to select it and would not be conected to the other wireless network at my house or to the internet.
Thanks for the help

Just take the TC and reset to factory..
Setup again with no WAN connection.. but leave the TC in router mode.. it will kick up a bunch of errors about having no WAN connection.. just ignore them all.
Create a wireless network.. try and use an IP address range not used by your main network.. just to help stop confusion.
When you swap between the two it should be able to work fine.
