Is it possible to allow guests access to Airport TC network, but not the HD?

I have an Airport Time Capsule Base Station that I also use as an external hard disk. Is it possible to allow guests access to the network without granting access to the external HD feature of the TC? I also have an Airport Express set up on the same network using the same password if that makes any difference. Both the TC and Express are the latest versions. Any advice/solutions would be appreciated, thanks!

Yes, if you specify a disk password in AirPort Utility that must be used to access the Time Capsule hard drive. Only those users who know the password will be able to access the disk.

    My PC is connected to AirPort Extreme by ethernet, I can access the network, but not the internet. The wireless devices on the extreme can access the internet

    Hey DM,
    Is the Wireless(WL) router signal coming through the wired-router?
    My ISP requires that my Wireless Router is identified from their end. I use AirPort Express, so they need its MAC address from the router. Without that, my network will show up, but my ISP doesn't recognize it and won't allow it to route he internet. I don't know your exact situation though.
    Can other wireless computers access the internet? If they can through the WL router, then it might be the MacBook. If they can't, then you might want to contact your ISP and ask if they can see your wireless router?
    Let us know.

  • I can access one pc on my network but not the other, "Alias" issue?

    I have 2 pc's other than my mac running on my network, I can access one with no problem, the other for some reason I can not. When I try to open the server icon it states "The alias could not be opened, because the original item could not be found"
    I have restarted my mac it obviously is detecting the pc is on the network, the pc has a shared folder. But everything i try to access it, it comes up with this error after asking me for my user name and password.
    Any help?
    Thanks

    Instead of using the alias.

  • I have a "company provided Ipad" now using IOS 6.1.3.  the company Will allow me to upgrade to IOS 7 but not to IOS 8.  Is that possible?

    I have a "company provided Ipad" now using IOS 6.1.3.  the company Will allow me to upgrade to IOS 7 but not to IOS 8.  Is that possible?

    No, since the iPad 2 is iOS 8 compatible it can only be updated to iOS 8.  Apple does not support upgrading to interim iOS versions, and removes those files from the servers when a new version is released.  The only path for that iPad 2 is iOS 8.0.2.

  • PIN-based guest access for airport express

    how do I setup PIN-based guest access for airport express?
    I have a 2010 iMac OS X 10.6.8 and an Airport Express of the same era.
    Thanx in advanced...

    Hello Bob,
    Thank you for your time on this.  I apologize for not giving you a more complete picture of what was going on. 
    I should have included that I had already performed the steps that you shared and had gotten to the place where I would enter the PIN. 
    The problem was that, after entering a PIN that I had come up with, the "continue" button never became active.  I called Apple Care and ended up talking to 3 different people before I found someone that knew the answer.  The answer is that the guest computer (client) MUST be present inorder for me to complete the setup.  So, problem is now solved.  Thanx...

  • I have just acquired an iMac desktop. I want to sign on to my airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network.

    I have just acquired an iMac desktop (about 4 years old). I want to connect to my Apple airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network and don't want to jeopardize what already works well. I am not all that computer literate.

    How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it.
    Read the user manual that came w/your Airport router or you can cross-post in one of the  AirPort Forums for instructions. 

  • On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
    If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
    If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it.

  • Access AFP, email, Remote Desktop via VPN and local network but NOT web

    How can I do this? Right now I can set up all these services where I can access them via VPN only, but not on the local network or via the web. If I want to access them via the local network I have to open up the ports in the firewall, however this opens up access via the web (not requiring VPN) which I do NOT want. How do I remedy this?

  • HT1766 Is it possible to have/make several Backups of iDevice (some history, but not the last one only)?

    There are two types of Backups that I can make for iDevice (for a example for iPhone - backup to iCloud or/and to the local PC/Mac.
    Both are the current Backup, so my question is - Is it possible to save a several Backups of an exact iDevice, for example of iPhone (some history, but not the last one only)?

    ITunes keeps 1 backup file only.
    Icloud keeps 3 backup files.

  • I have configure remote access feature web application proxy but not configure give the error. The remote name could not be resolved.

    I have configure remote access feature web application proxy but not configure give the error. The remote name could not be resolved in server 2012 R2.
    I have configure Ad and ADFS different server and try to configure web application proxy different server. what setting are required for connect web application proxy to Ad and ADFS.

    Hi,
    In addition, please make sure that the port 443 is not blocked by the firewall.
    Web Application Proxy requires internal name resolution to resolve the names of backend servers, and AD FS servers. When publishing web applications via Web Application Proxy, every web application you publish requires an external URL. For clients to reach
    these web applications, a public DNS server must be able to resolve each external URL that you configure. Note that the external URL must resolve to the same IP address as the Web Application Proxy server, or the external IP address of a firewall or load-balancer
    placed in front of the Web Application Proxy server.
    Best regards,
    Susie

  • I attached my HDMI cable to my Samsung Tv. The "classic" apple screen comes up, but not the screen on my MacBook. Therefore I can't access my laptop.

    I attached my HDMI cable to my Samsung Tv. The "classic" apple screen comes up, but not the screen on my MacBook. Therefore I can't access my laptop.

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
    In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    The TV will now have the Dock and Menu Bar and windows will open on it. But you can move the cursor to the MacBook screen and move windows from the TV over to the MacBook screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

  • I have just set up Itunes match on my new iMac. It is saying I can access all my 9000 songs but only the playlist tab is live. Am I missing something?

    Hi
    I have just set up itunes match on my new imac. It is saying I can access all my 9000 songs but only the playlist tab is live - I can't access albums or songs. Am I missing something?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I do not understand your problem. iTunes Match does not change the way iTunes looks. When match process is complete, the match screen tells you how much music you have in the cloud.
    Across the top of screen you have options to select songs, albums, artist, composers etc.
    Suggest that from main menu, select view>show sidebar.
