I need to backup to TC from another wireless network

TC works fine when I am within range of the network, but I want to back up when I am connected to the internet but on another network. TC is always connected (ethernet), is this possible/how do I do it?

interesting scenario. I don't know if this is possible , never tried it but use the Go function>connect to server. Use the ip address found under the internet tab in Airport Utility. Make sure under Finder preference checked "show servers on desktop." type afp://your ip address I'm assuming when TC shows on the desktop then you configure TC on your computer it should be able to select it as a backup drive. Same relative scenario on local network, eh?

    Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

    You might be able to set up the SMTP server settings in Mail to authenticate with a password. That may get the email through.
    In Mail Preferences, Accounts, select the account.
    Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu and select Edit SMTP Server List
    Select the Server and then click the Advanced tab at the bottom.
    Select Password authentication and add your details.
    You might also want to set a custom port (even if it is one of the defaults)
    This solution is normally for an email provider that will not let you send outside of your ISP network, which most prevent. They also must support password authentication of the SMTP server.

    I need to call a repaint from another class, but since I can't make the paint() method a static one, it will not let me access the repaint method, any ideas? thanks guys

    ok here's a very basic idea of whats goin on...
    <code>
    MainFrame class (in which the paint method resides)

  • HT3728 I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    You can configure the AirPort Expess to "Join a wireless network" and enable the Ethernet port so that Ethernet devices will be able to connect.
    In order to print from the iOS devices, you will need to have an application like Printopia installed on your Mac. The Mac must be active when you want to print.
    More details here: Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
    There is a free trial available for Printopia, so make sure that it will work before you buy the AirPort Express.

  • I have setup wireless at home but when I travel how do I find another wireless network?

    I have setup wireless at home, but when I travel, how do I find another wireless network?

    Depends on where you are. Most all hotels/motels have wireless. There are Internet cafes, libraries, Starbucks, and many other places providing WiFi service.
    In your iPad's Network settings you will usually find displayed all detected wireless systems. Not all of them may be usable unless they provide free access or you have a paid access membership. You should find this discussed in the user manual:

  • I need to backup my mails from a time machine backup disk from a powerbook leopard to an IMac snow Leopard...can I do this?

    Hi everybody...
    I need to backup my complete history of emails. I have a time machine backup disk I used in a powerbook intel, second generation with Leopard OS. Now I have an Imac of 24 inches, with Snow Leopard OS. Can I use that backup disk (TM) to put the mails that used to be in the powerbook into my IMac?
    My original powerbook is broken, so I cant do anything there...

    You should be able to find and restore emails that were on the old Mac via Time Machine.  Emails that were on the server, not the Mac, won't be there, of course.
    See the blue box in #15 of  Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.

  • How do I set up time capsule to just backup multiple macs on a wireless network without using the TC in the bridge mode?

    I have an AT&T modem that serves as our home wireless network.  I wanted to backup up our computer data so I got a time capsule to back up our three household MACs.  After purchase, I found how that I needed to put the exising modem in "bridge mode" so the Time capsule would establish the network. Four frustrating hours later talking to 3 different people at Yahoo, I got the **** thing established.  It worked fine for 4 months - then a power failure forced me to repeat the process again.  I had to reestablish everything and it took another 4 hours.  After 6 months, another power failure forced me to go through the entire process again.  Now, of course, Yahoo is charging a fee to help you establish the TC as the network if you have one of their modems - and to make things interesting, they really don't understand MACs.  After 5 hours, in frustration, I gave up and asked the Yahoo folks to just put their modem back in as the network hub and I unplugged the Time Capsule.  Now after 3 months of looking at an expensive Time Capsule and searching the internet for help, I figured I try the Apple help network,
    I just want to backup the data on my MACS.  I have a network in the house that works just fine.  How do I configure the TC to work as a backup on a wireless network?  It seems like it should be simple, but it isn't.  Can anybody help?

    I have no idea about the modem and bridge mode (I don't do networking -- hopefully Bob Timmons, Tesserax, or one of the other networking gurus will drop in and address that).
    But . . . you should be able to back up to the TC as long as it's on your network and recognized by your Macs.  I think being in bridge mode means it will be rather slow, but it should work.  Until/unless we hear otherwise, you might want to see #Q1 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule.

  • Time Machine backup to Time Capsule clobbers wireless network

    Dear All,
    When TimeMachine starts a backup to my new Time Capsule, the wireless network gets clobbered. Other computers on the network's throughput to external sites goes to basically zero (slow ping times, dropped packets- basically unusable.) Is this the expected behavior?
    The configuration I have for my home network is
    cable modem -> time capsule serving wireless network -> "g" network with 2-3 laptops (macbook pro and dell windows laptops.) The dells can't do anything when Time Machine runs, and since it runs hourly it is a bit irritating. I'm considering getting another Mac and then the downtime of my network would increase even more....
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers
    Peter

    My old G5 has 802.11b, and back ups to TC are SLOW. But then the "wire speed" of g is 11M bits/s or ~1 MB/s, but in the real world if you got 100KB/s that's probably good. 100KB/s is only 6 MB/min or .36 GB/hr.
    So 2GB/.36GB which is 5.6 hrs.
    Or to put it another way that's about 3 GB/hr at very best.
    And that's ignoring stuff like compression!
    in short: not usable with 802.11g
    ===
    On my Mac Pro with 802.11n (54 Mbs) I get about 8x that because "n" is about 5x faster wire speed and seems to have better "software".
    e.g. I get about about 25 GB/hr on my ".11n" system
    Still way slow but at least useable.
    ===
    Moral of the story don't bother which TC if you don't have "n"

  • Airplay from itunes to zepplin air will disconnect my computer from my wireless network

    Hi there,
    Relatively new subject matter, so haven't been able to find much online...
    I recently purchased a Zeppelin Air - for those who don't know its an ipod speaker system with airplay built in.  I'm running a Windows Vista x64 machine with the latest version of iTunes.
    When I open up iTunes and go to play a song, everything works fine for about 30 seconds and then the audio stops and my computer disconnects from my network.  My network icon in the system tray shows disconnected and of course a new browser window won't open my home page. 
    I then tried using a program called Airfoil to stream Spotify to my Zepplin speakers and it works fine.  Go back to itunes to test out (streaming from itunes now, and not the Airfoil program) and it makes it past a minute, but then after a few minutes it starts getting choppy.  I press stop and start another song... a whole song finishes.  Next song about a minute in it disconnects my computer from my home network again.
    Next I open up Airfoil and have it hijack itunes rather than using the airplay feature in itunes. I make it a few minutes into one song, decide to skip to another, no problem.  No disconnects.
    Back to itunes, no airfoil this time, back to using the airplay feature from itunes.  25 seconds into a song, it gets really choppy, drops audio.  I press stop and try another song... really choppy can't seem to keep a solid connection.  I try a few songs, one makes it through, then I go back to another and my computer loses connection to my network again.
    So point being is it appears to be an iTunes issue and not a Zeppelin issue.  In fact this is my second Zeppelin, I returned the first one because it was having the same problems.
    The only functional difference I can see is that iTunes seems to be more responsive in the congrols for pause/play/volume where as Airfoil has a slight delay.  I feel that maybe iTunes is pushing too much data out for my wireless adapater to handle?
    Also streaming Pandora from an ipad works no problem...
    I'm going to be trying a new adapter soon, but curious to see if anyone has any insights.
    Thanks,
    Travis

    I've narrowed down the problem to a combination of my Windows Vista 64 machine and streaming directly from iTunes.
    I tested my laptop with XP and had no problems streaming from iTunes.
    I then connected my Vista machine directly to the router and when streaming directly from iTunes I had all sorts of skips and pauses, but when streaming from Airplay no problem.
    I attached an image of my network stats from the same song via iTunes and Airplay.  The spikes in the network traffic seem to be the problem when streaming from iTunes...

  • HT202663 how can i block another wireless network?

    I've noticed that at periods throughout the day my network slows down considerably. I did a wireless diagnostics report and found an external wireless network with a TW (Taiwan) country code is nearby. I'd like to block it. How can I do this?

    You may want to check if the adjacent networks are using the same WiFi channel you are using.
    Try a utility such as iStumbler.
    For 2.4GHz frequences, you want to be on a channel all by yourself and 5 channels away from the strongest signals.  That means channels 1, 6, or 11 typically.  Outside the US, some countries allow channels 12 & 13, so you may play different 5 channel apart games.
    The 5GHz frequencies are better spaced so as long as you are not using the same channel, all is OK.
    If you are using channels that conflict, then you can get interference that may slow down your WiFi.
    Another approach is to make an Ethernet connection instead of WiFi, and see if your performance improves.  If it does, then it may be WiFi interference.  If it does not improve, then it may be how fast your Internet connection is working.
    I know a lot of people using Cable based broadband that see performance slow down when school lets out and the neighborhood kids start watching YouTube videos and chewing up the shared neighborhood bandwidth.

  • Do I really need an Airport device for my home wireless network?

    Hi Apple Users,
    I am seriously considering purchasing my very first Apple computer: a MacBook Pro to be precise.  I'm a very experienced Windows PC user - was a Microsoft Windows & Office -based Help Desk Analyst at my company for 13 years till I was laid off last year.  So I know my way around Microsoft Windows computers, Windows LANs, wireless networking & servers, security, etc.  I currently own a Dell Precision laptop running Windows 7 - have had it for 3 years with no problems (yet - knock on wood).  I have a cable modem with a Motorola SBG900 wireless router / gateway with hardware firewall enabled. Everything is secure, only certain ports are open, etc.
    If I buy this MacBook Pro, get it delivered, turn it on, create my logon, etc. will it automatically work with my current wireless router / gateway after going thru the set-up procedure to connect to my network & the internet?   Or do I absolutely have to purchase one of the Airport adapters in order for the Mac to talk to the router? 
    Thank you for being patient with a newbie Apple / Mac User wannabe.  I'm very excited!
    Kim

    Thank you Rysz, but (if you scroll up & read my original post you will discover) I don't own my new MacBook Pro...yet!  I'm just researching ahead of time to help me make the decision.  The customized MBP I have saved in my cart is over $3000 (incl the 3-yr support plan).  So it's going to take me a little bit of research before I decide or before I can really justify the purchase.
    I just wanted to be prepared for all the inevitable technical / learning-curve headaches that I will experience IF I take the plunge.   And as everyone has experienced, when you're new to and making your first purchase of a different technology, and you don't know what to expect about a purchase, you ultimately get it home, set it up and find it didn't come with all the necessary interface devices, converters or cables, etc.  And of course the online purchase procedure wizard doesn't tell you or ask you what else you will need if you want to perform a specific task. 
    But I'm sure (if) once I do make the purchase, I will definitely be back here to pick everyone's brains!  These communities are fantastic.   Thanks again!

  • Need Help Connecting New MacBook Pro with Wireless Network Password

    Hi Linksys Community,
    I would like to ask for your help and advice.
    I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro, OS X, Version 10.8.3.
    I need to setup a password to the wireless internet network (I've successfully done this)
    I have a Wireless G,  WRT54G Router. 
    When I setup the password, I'm not able to connect to the internet with my new MacBook Pro, which is running Mac OS X Version 10.8.3.  I get the message 'cannot connect to Internet, connection timeout) However, I'm able to connect to the internet with an older MacBook Pro, and my iPad. The password works fine with other models.
    Would anyone be able to help me troubleshoot what is going on, or how I can solve this problem?
    I would like to be able to have a password on my network, and use the internet with my new MacBook Pro.
    I have read about manually adding in the MAC address of computers, and setting up a Wireless MAC fiter.
    Does anyone think this would solve the problem?  if so, how can I find out the MAC address of my MacBook Pro?
    Thanks in advance for you help and time!

    Hi,
    Thanks for your response.
    Yes, my computer connects when your network is open (no password set)?
    I used WPA Pre-Shared Key.
    Do you know how I could check if my new MacBook Pro is compatible with this?
    Thanks!

  • Is it possible to to disconnect 2 wireless clients from my wireless network without access to the clients i.e. 2 iPads?

    Is it possible to disconnect 2 wireless clients from my network if I do not have access to the clients? ie 2 iPads.

    You would have to set up Timed Access for each device.
    This consists of specifying the amount of time each day that wireless devices will be allowed to connect to the network. You must provide a MAC or hardware address for each device, which is a long code that might look something like this, for example......A1-B2-C3-D4-E5-F6....and then specify the hours each day that this device is allowed to connect to the wireless network.
    You have to do this for each device, which is tedious. Devices that are not on the Access List cannot connect to the network at any time.

  • New tip trick for capturing scanned images to the PB from your wireless network printer

    I've read a couple of threads here and on crackberry about not being able to print directly to a printer on the local network (although there is a way to print via the cloud from gmail apparently). Anyway it occurred to me that I can browse to my printer's IP address and in addition to allowing me to configure it, it also lets me scan documents to jpg, pdf, and tiff formats and then renders the scanned image through the browser. I tried this from the Playbook browser and it worked perfectly. i was able to view and save the scanned document directly to my Playbook file system. Even more conveniently I could just take a screenshot of the browser window. Now if only the printer would let me print the scan or better yet browse to and upload a local file for print my printing problems would be solved. I am using an older HP 2500 psc. Does anyone know of a newer model wireless/network printer that allows printing via the browser interface?

    Just to clarify. When your playbook and the wireless printer are on the same network, you can browse to the IP address of the wireless printer from your playbook just as you could from your PC or laptop. The browser will display the printer's web features which in my case includes the ability to scan the document that is laying on the scanner bed of the printer. When I click the scan button, the image of the scanned document renders on my playbook and I am able to save the rendered TIFF, JPG, PDF to the playbook locally or I can even just take a screenshot (press the playbook's volume up and down buttons simultaneously) and then the image of the document from the browser window automatically saves to the camera folder under pictures.
    What I would like is to find a wireless printer that from the web page that is displayed when I browse to the printers local IP address be able to browse to a file on my playbook and upload it to the printer (kind of like uploading or attaching a document to a gmail email message or uploading a local picture to Facebook etc...) and then instruct the printer to print the document. Obviously this would only work when I was on the same local wireless network as the printer but it would essentially solve the "how to print directly to a wireless printer from the playbook?" question.
