I upgraded from a 1st generation to a 4th generation time capsule (model A4109) and since then my pay TV wireless transmitter has pulsating interference. This is obviously due to the new dual band frequency of the TC. Is there any way I can set it to one band and what will that do?

Go in and manually set the wireless channel for 2.4ghz or 5ghz (whichever your av sender is).. try different channels.

Time Capsule will only allow Apple products to connect to internet, PC ad PS3 shows excellent signal from TC but won't allow connection.

I have a Mac, iPad, iPhone and several iPod touch devices that can connect to the internet through Time Capsule without a problem. There are times when my work PC and PS3 won't connect to the internet through TC. There doesn't seem to be any reason why this happens and it just started happening in the last month. The PC indicates an excellent wireless connection. If you have any suggestions please put it in very easy to understand terms (I'm not a very technical person).

Ok.. that is very helpful. What OS is your Mac running?
Please now take a few screenshots of your airport utility so I can see the setup of the TC.
But it looks like it is bridged.
Open the utility and click on manual setup.
Take a screenshot of the summary page.
Take a screenshot of the internet tab.
And the other two tabs there.. TCP/IP
And DHCP
Yours will look different to mine.. but there is nothing in them that is needing to be hidden.. it is useless info to another person. I post mine to show it is useless in case it worries you.
I do need some more info.
What is the modem you have? Is it also a wifi router. In the list of wireless you took the snapshots of, you have several wireless names.. I want to know which of those are yours??
The WEP security device is a problem. It is old and near useless.. if you don't own it that is fine.. but if it is yours get rid of it.
Can your PC and PS3 connect to the internet via some other wireless?
It looks like you might be able to simply bypass the TC to connect the PC.
Sometimes it is easier to solve this problem by using different hardware.. and a secondary wireless AP can easily be plugged into a modem router if that is what you have to provide wireless just for your PC devices.
What model is your TC.. ?
Please look at the bottom rubber mat.. there is a number in the top line of the rubber molding.. It will say A1254 or A1302 or A1355 .. those are the numbers for Gen1 , 2 and 3. Gen4 it is on the paper label.. where it always should have been A1409. Please tell me that number.

How do I know what the wifi password is for my 4th Gen time capsule

I am only new to this time capsule thing… I am pretty savvy in things as technology goes but I just can't figure out how to get the wifi password on the 4TH GEN time capsule I have tried everything I know I was not the one to set it up and my mother let the tech do it and paid no attention to the finer details I would have. PLEASE HELP!!! THANK YOU.

You will learn grasshopper!!
looked like I didn't even need the reset but this is great and simple way I hope other people use it!!!! Thank you again!!!! From a not as seasoned techy as you!!! I aspire to be as versed someday!!!
You must use the reset to remove the admin password if it is set.. If the tech left it as default the TC throws up an error.
It is one I choose to ignore since security on the Airport routers is pathetic anyway.
Default password is public btw.
And as long as you access via ethernet then you do not need the wireless password. But the way the utility works now is to set the password the same for both wireless and admin access. So you need to reset.
Pressing the button for 1sec is called a soft reset.
Read the apple documentation on reset. There are 3 levels of reset..
Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ - Apple Support
There is an enormous amount of info Apple have available in documents and technical notes.. and apple has the worst search engine known to man.. so use google to find it.. !!

I have the 4th Generation Airport Extreme, is it time to upgrade?

I'm currently using the 4th Generation Airport Extreme (Model A1354) and was wondering if it was time to upgrade, especially with the new 6th(?) generation being relased June 12th?
I know this maybe a simple question but any help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Andrew

In order to take advantage of the new 802.11ac performance on the new AirPort Extreme, you will have to buy one or more new MacBook Air laptops.
That is the only computer offered by Apple that can utilize the 802.11ac capabilities of the new AirPort Extreme.
Apple indicates that new Mac Book Pros with 802.11ac capability will be introduced at a later time.
You will receive no real performance benefit with the new AirPort Extreme using your current wireless devices. The only exception might be a bit better signal reception with the new "tower" antenna design.
The bottom line for most users.....unless you plan to add new 802.11ac computer hardware in the near future, there is probably no reason to buy a new 802.11ac router now.....unless you really like the styling.
Curiously, the new AirPort Extrme still uses older 2.0 USB technology, while a number of other manufacturers offer faster 3.0 USB products.

I have connected my time capsule to motorola SG6580 modem via ethernet. I have a wireless network on the motorola and a wireless network from the time capsule. I get duplicate IPs error messages sometimes. How do I fix?

I have connected my time capsule to motorola SG6580 modem via ethernet. I have a wireless network on the motorola and a wireless network from the time capsule. I get duplicate IPs error messages (no connection) sometimes when trying to connect devices to the wireless network. How do I fix? Sometimes devices cannot connect to the network because of conflicting IPs. I look on the Motorola and every device has a unique IP assigned but occasionally a device has taken the IP of another device. I have been writing down all the devices and the IPs they have been using. It happens more with PCs than Macs, ipads or iPhones.

If the Time Capsule is set up correctly in bridge mode, then it is the responsibility of the Motorola modem/router to provide the correct IP address assignments for all devices on the network.
Check to insure that the Time Capsule is correctly set up to operate in bridge mode as follows:
On your Mac, open AirPort Utility
Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click the Network tab at the top of the next window
Insure that the setting for Router Mode is configured to read "Off (Bridge Mode)"
Once you have confirmed that the Time Capsule is configured correctly, everything else is the responsibility of the Motorola modem/router as far as network routing and IP address assignments for devices.
If you continue to have IP address issues, then you should contact the Internet Service Provider (ISP) that provided the Motorola device to you and ask them to fix the issue.

Will I be able to get the 4th generation iPad on launch day?

Will I be able to get the 4th generation iPad (not the mini) on launch day November 2nd? This is my first time buying an iPad and I was wondering if they sell out really fast when they go on sale I'm stores or will I still be able to get one? I am planning on going around 6 PM on November 2nd.

They can end up sold out by the end of the day, though that can differ from store to store. So if you can, you might try to get there much earlier than 6:00 pm.
I'm in a city with an open 24 hours a day Apple store, but they are not selling the mini or the ipad 4 until 8:00 am.
Best Buy near us is opening early at 8:00 am instead of at 10:00 am to accommodate. Other stores? Not a clue.
So maybe you can get there early in the am.
I suggest you call whatever store you plan on going to on Nov. 2nd, and ask an employee or manager.
Hope this helps.

Temporarily disable any security software on the computer and try again.

I'm thinking about getting an i pod touch for my daughter. If I get the 4th generation i pod, is it compatible with the ios 7 updates for i phones as far as if she wants to imessage or face time with me?

The 4G can not run IOS-7. "6" is the highest that it can go. You need the 5G for IOS-7.
However, that won't affect her ability to use iMessage and FaceTime.

Is the 4th generation time capsule as fast as the 5th generation extreme

They are equal as far as their routing capabilities.

What is the difference between the 4th generation ipad and the ipad 3 with retnia display?

What is the difference between the 4th generation iPad and the "New iPad with retina display"? i don't quite understand. are they stilll the same size or would i have to get a different case?

The 3rd and 4th generation iPads are the same size. The 4 has a faster processor, and a little better iSight camera for FaceTime. The 4 also has the lightning connector so your old cable will not work with the iPad 4.
You should always check with the manufacturer of the case to see if it will fit. You can probably do that on the manufacturers website.
This might be of some interest to you.

Do you not want a backup of the iTunes content on your computer in the event the iPad is lost, stolen, or simply fails?

Accessing the new ac Time Capsule from Internet

I have set up my Time Capsule so that I can access it from outside. However, I can only access the time capsule disk if I use cmd-K and enter the IP directly, if I click on the Time Capsule icon on finder's sidebar, I get an error saying something like the device is unavailable. I get the same error if I try to use the Airport Utility remotely.
Any idea?
Cheers

do you have the BTMM and iCloud ID setup in the TC?
Is the TC operating in bridge or main router?
People seem to have issues with bridge... although it doesnt say in the instructions that it is required to be main router.
There is a fairly long thread here of issues with BTMM and iCloud ..with the TC.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3699096?start=0&tstart=0
There are plenty more.
As you can see it is not at all easy.

I upgraded from a 1st generation to the 4th generation Time capsule Model A1409. Since then I am getting interference on my wireless transmitter that sends signals from my Pay TV box to another TV downstairs. Is it the dual frequency and how do I stop i
