I set up a new airport time capsule. Most devices connected fine however now my apple tv 2nd gen won't work. I turn it on and it searches for time and date but goes no further. I can't by pass it either. Any suggestions?

I can't by pass it either. Any suggestions?
Does that mean you cannot move it to the TC and plug in by ethernet? What does bypass mean?
I would still move it closer to the TC.. and just trial it there. Range on some AC models for 2.4ghz is worse than old one. For some people.
Another thing to try is fixed wireless channels.. one of the very few options still available in the AC model.. lock the 2.4ghz to 11, 6, 1 .. try it in that order.

    I have replaced my airport extreme with a new airport time capsule and want to know how I can set up my extreme to extend/strengthen my Wi-Fi?

    Start with a "hard reset" (see below) then use AirPort Utility to configure it.
    When asked what you want to do with it, indicate that you want it to add to an existing network, similar to the following screenshot.
    Follow the prompts that will eventually lead you to the words "wirelessly extend..." as shown.
    To "hard reset" an AirPort Base Station: make sure it's powered up, then press and hold its tiny reset button and keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.

  • Can I use my new airport time capsule 3TB for my personal cloud

    I am trying to get my own personal cloud. Can I use my new airport time capsule to accomplish this?

    The Time Capsule stores data on its internal drive and not in the cloud. If you want it actually put in the cloud, it needs to be separately set up with a hosting or storage service.

  • Will my MacBook Pro '11 support the software needed for my new AirPort Time Capsule?

    I've got a MacBook Pro '11, OS X 10.6.8 and am trying to back up my photo library to a new AirPort Time Capsule 2TB.
    When trying to set it up in AirPort Utility, I am getting the warning "This version of AirPort Utility doesn't support this AirPort wireless device and might improperly configure the device if you continue to use it. Check www.apple.com/support/airport for the latest version of AirPort Utility."
    1. Where do I go to get the latest version of AirPort Utility?
    2.  Will the latest version work with OS X 10.6.8?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Yes. The latest version will be installed when you upgrade to Yosemite.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

  • My computer is macbook white with iOS 10. 6.8, will i able to use the new Airport Time Capsule 2TB and what does it mean administrate the Airport Time Capsule 2TB ?

    my computer is macbook white with Mac OS X (10. 6.8), will i able to use the new Airport Time Capsule 2TB and work properly with Time Capsule on my computer to back up wirelessly?
    And what does it mean "to administrate" because it was written in requirement of the Airport Time Capsule 2TB ?

    You must use a Mac running Lion (10.7.5), Mountain Lion or Mavericks to be able to set up the Time Capsule and make any changes to the settings.
    A recent version iPhone or iPad could also be used for this task.
    From the Specifications on the Time Capsule:

  • Is the new AirPort Time Capsule compatible with a fibre optic modem?

    I will be having fibre optic set up in my new home.  The new AirPort Time Capsule states that it si able to connect to cable or DLS modem for internet access.  Will I be able to connect this device to a modem designed for fibre optic internet?
    Many thanks

    Yes. All it needs is a modem (cable, fiber, satellite, DSL) with an Ethernet output (not USB).

  • How to connect New Airport Time Capsule to non Apple asdl router

    Guys,
    I have just purchased a new AirPort Time Capsule to back up the various macs in my house. I want to connect it to my wireless router which is a non apple product but the setup instructions are a little unclear to me.
    My current router has simply a phone line connector and the power source coming into it. Do I simply connect an ethernet cable from the Airport to the Router. And if so, do I use the single Ethernet WAN port or one of the three Ethernet LAN ports on the rear of the airport? I assume the other end of the cable goes into any of the Ethernet slots on the back of my router which are marked 'Ethernet', or would it go into the socket marked 'Broadband WAN'?
    Appreciate your help and if anyone is willing to speak on phone, I am very ahppy to call you in the next couple of hours! I am in the UK
    Best, Anthony

    thanks LaPastengue!
    Here is what ive got
    What ATT router do you have? Exact make and model please.
        gateway 2wire from at&t
    What TC do you have.. Latest AC tall one?? Or older one?? If older. .please tell us the model number. A1409 for example from the base mat.
         yes I have the latest airport time capsule 2TB
    Please tell us the full setup.. what is currently plugged into the main modem router??
         The Main modem route has an ethernet cord plugged in the other side of the cord is plugged into the phone      jack
    Do not plug the TC in first.. plug a single ethernet TC to the computer.. Hmm. so I need an additional ethenet cord to plug the TC into the computer? Leaving the router plugged in as is?
    Open the airport utility and change the TC to bridge mode.

    Update the TC and then plug it into the ATT modem and plug it into your computer or use the wireless and then tell us what happens.

  • My 5 year old Airport Expresses don't work with the new Airport Time Capsule?

    My question is after wasting hours trying to install my new Airport Time Capsule, Ive noticed that the "Airport Utility" doesn't recognize any of my 4 five year old Airport Expresses. An error message says " This version of Airport Utility doens not support this (these) base stations"? Does that mean that their is no work arounds which means I have to purchase 4 replacements?

    You need the older airport utility.. that can be installed on Lion or Mountain Lion.. it cannot be installed on Mavericks.. do you have an older computer even a windows one.. or can access, borrow or bribe a friend over for drinks with laptop.. then you can configure your expresses.. !!
    There is a rather complex workaround on Mavericks.. when I posted it in the past.. Apple deleted it.. go figure.
    Kappy's post is still there.

  • I recently purchased a brand new Airport Time Capsule 2TB. I already am using the previous generation time capsule to back up all my computers data. May I ask how can I complement the usage with my new time capsule?

    I recently purchased a brand new Airport Time Capsule 2TB. I already am using the previous generation time capsule to back up all my computers data. May I ask how can I complement the usage with my new time capsule?

    By default your new Time Capsule will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN
    Most likely your iMacs will be connected to the wireless network created by the Virgin Media router. However, both should see the Apple Network under the AirPort icon's drop-down menu as another wireless network that they can connect to. Is this not the case?

  • HT1178 Setting Up new AirPort Time Capsule

    im setting up airport time capsule for the first time and its asking me to "Provide the PPPoE connection information from your ISP" Im not sure what to do? Where do i get this information?

    PPPoE connection information consists of your user name....likely your email address....and password for your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
    If you do not know this, then you will need to contact your ISP for the required information.

  • New Airport Time Capsule Dropping Wifi/Internet with 7.7.1

    Last week I bought a new Airport 2TB Time Capsule and had everything up and running within minutes. However, less than 24 hours later, the wifi signal started dropping devices all around the house. It started with the AppleTV, and eventually dropped our iPhones and iPad as well. The problem is one I've seen on these forums before (however, not with this new model).
    I since exchanged it, and the new model is having the identical issues.
    Basically, the problem is 1 of 3 things:
    1. You'll look down at your iPhone (or whatever device that is wirelessly connected), and see a full wifi signal. However, you'll have lost access to the Internet. Using the AirPort app won't find the Airport Time Capsule. Sometimes turning off wifi on the iPhone and turning it back on fixes the issue, sometimes the Airport Time Capsule needs to be restarted.
    2. The AirPort Time Capsule stops broadcasting SSID at random intervals. Even when standing right next to it, there is no way to join the network.
    3. The Internet connection drops in the middle of a browsing session (usually while using an iPhone).
    On both devices (the original new one, and the replacement exchange), I immediately ran the firmware update. So, I'm thinking this could be a firmware issue.
    This router replaces a Linksys e3000 that was working flawlessly. It's connected to a Cox Cable Cisco DOCSIS 3.0 modem (modem only, no router). The AirPort Time Capsule runs in WPA2 protected mode. It's running DHCP and NAT, and 2.4 and 5ghz are currently running the same network name (although I've tried separating them to no effect).
    I am at my wits end. I find it hard to believe that both of these routers are defective. And I also find it hard to believe that I'm doing something wrong in the setup of this simple device, considering I've been working with all kinds of very complicated routers for over a decade without this kind of problem.
    So I come to you, community, for help!
    Thank you in advance!

    I don't have one.. but your testing is conclusive.. the TC is not stable on this firmware.. Apple will no doubt fix it .. I think their secrecy in marketing leads to less than adequate testing.. you are expecting to buy a mature product.. remember this is a ground breaker.. this is the first all new design since Gen1 TC.. all previous models used Maxell processor and chipset.. albeit with various wireless cards.. now it is broadcom.. processor and wireless.. this also runs apple written firmware.
    Broadcom OEM firmware.(linux and hence open source) supplied to all manufacturers of products based on the chipset.. well that would be just wrong for apple... it has to be done in NETBSD,, so it is not open source.. the very thought.. open source.. . that would give everyone access to controls apple don't want you to have.. http setup even.. couldn't allow that.. so apple have to write the firmware from scratch and to match all those apple protocols. Hence where they are now now.
    And your role is beta tester.. didn't you know.
    Return it and stick with your Linksys (broadcom, Linux open source)  until Gen 6 TC comes out.
    Unless you like the bleeding edge. 

  • I have a rMBP that needs to be backed up.  The Wi-Fi in my house is poor and I do not have an Ex. Hard Drive.  I want to get the new Airport Time Capsule, but can you accomplish it's benefits wirelessly?

    So...
    I have a modem across the house and my room is at the opposite side.  I believe that you have to connect the Airport Time Capsule via modem cable in order for you to appreciate the benefits of the boosted up Wi-Fi.  However, I want the airport time capsule in my room, without having any extra cables plugged into it AND also benefit from the Wifi boosts, as well as back it up wirelessly.
    Is there any way to do this?  I was reading up on it and there are search queries bringing up "bridges" and all that stuff, but I haven't found a clear answer on it.
    So, to recap:
    I want the Airport Time Capsule to not only back up my rMPB and help my wifi signal out, but to do all of this with no additional cables having to be plugged in.
    Thanks.

    Trust me when I say this coming from 20 years of experience.
    Get a powered external drive, format it 1 Partition Option: GUID and OS X Extended Journed as the format in Disk Utility.
    Download and install Carbon Copy Cloner, clone internal drive to external drive.
    Set a schedule to remind you to do it at least once a week, keep it near your charger.
    When you plug your charger in, do plug the clone and power the machine up, set the display to sleep only,
    CCC will do the rest.
    If you want to boot from it, hold the option/alt and select it Startup Manager.
    I've seen many TimeMachine and TimeCapsule nightmares and so far haven't seen a problem from anyone using a bootable clone.
    It's simple, it's easy, it's more reliable and more powerful than what Apple does and it only takes plugging in a extra cable.
    Make as many clones as you want, keep them time seperated, off site etc. etc.
    Cables don't have network issues, clones can be verified in seconds merely by booting from them.
    Clones protect your productivity, your up in seconds on a clone despite even the hard drive dying.
    Software problem? No sweat, boot of the clone and reverse clone your problems away.
    If you want to fuss and muss with half implemented TimeMachine and TimeCapsule network headaches then prepare to suffer.
    I don't like to suffer, I bought a Mac not to suffer, but it appears you do with TimeMachine and TimeCapsule.

  • How can I make my new AirPort Time Capsule with VOIP?

    I purchased an AirPort Time Capsule because of the modem capability. The modem we have from the phone company isn't very good.
    Now I have a little problem. I forgot we have our phone over internet and I cannot figure out how to set it all up.
    Any ideas for my latest problem? I'd run back to the store/genius bar, but it's a ferry ride away and I'm not sure it would do any good to go back because all my phone "stuff" (cords, etc) wall jacks, is all here.
    Current set up is this:
    Modem box has ethernet (yellow) cable going from it to imac. It also has blue cable going from it to ATA Router (smaller black box). Each box (white larger "modem" box, and black smaller ATA Router) have a phone cord going from wall (2 separate jacks) to the box. And obviously each has it's own power cord.
    I tried moving all plugs from white modem box to AP TC, but there really isn't a phone jack on back of APTC. It clicked in place in one of the <--> ports, but I'm getting a flashing amber light on the front, and no internet connection.
    Any ideas for my latest issue?? I know so much more about computers than I ever wanted to know, but it obviously isn't enough.
    Thanks!

    I purchased an AirPort Time Capsule because of the modem capability.
    There is no modem in the airport routers.. they are all plain ethernet routers.
    It sounds like you have adsl modem.. and I would just leave it alone.
    But if you want to play and your ISP supports PPPOE and the modem allows bridging or bridge mode.. then you can bridge the modem and use TC to establish the link to the ISP.. on the internet tab use PPPOE and put in your ISP username and password.
    You can then plug the ATA into one of the LAN ports of the TC.
    Overall this is probably not a great idea.
    Exactly what modem are you talking about .. make and model from the base please?? Who is your ISP?
    What model is the ATA? Actual model numbers from it please.
    Generally you will plug the TC into the modem and use simple bridge mode.
    Even though the airport wizard might attempt to take over as main router.. please do the setup manually and choose bridge mode.
    See Airport Utility shows "unexpected error - please try again" when connecting to Time Capsule
