Is it possible to change time of back on Time Capsule

I want my time capsule, to take back up in the night time, and not during the day, when all is working. Sometimes it has an influence on the speed og the computer. I do not know where to do the manual set up in this matter

You might want to take a look at Time Machine Editor to see if it will do what you want.

Is it possible to sync time capsule data to a external hard drive

Is it possible to sync time capsule data to a external hard drive connected to time capsule via usb. (as an precaution just incase time capsule fails)
Thanks

Yes, if the USB drive has been previously formatted correctly in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format.
Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
Click the Disks icon
Click the Disks tab below the icon
Click Archive
Allow plenty of time for the copy process to occur. You will not be able to make Time Machine backups from your Mac until the Archive process has completed.

Is it possible to use time capsule or airport extreme as a wireless hard drive for iphone?

Is it possible to use time capsule or airport extreme as a wireless hard drive for iphone.
I would like to strem movies from the hard drive to iphone.
I have already seen the Goflex Stellite, which works this way.
Is there any other device that could do this?

I did a typo. My current computer is a 2010 1/2 iMac. The stand alone monitors are still out of my price range so I'm looking for other options. By buying an external hard drive and a broken iMac, I'm still ahead. Still, if I understand you right, the 27" 2010 and earlier iMacs would be possiblities.
Are there adapters that would allow me to run a 2011 and newer iMac as an external monitor from my 2010 1/2. There are so many adapters out there these days.

Is it possible for Apple Time Capsule place iphoto library and use it with my macbooks

Is it possible for Apple Time Capsule place iphoto library and use it with my macbook pro & macbook air? How about the simultaneous use? Will I as well open it in my ipad and iphoto?

How Come? I thought that to an external drive move iphoto library is not a problem - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3012995?tstart=0. And Apple Time Capsule including the an external drive.

HT3728 Is it possible to use Time Capsule as external hard drive instead of back-up?

I wonder if it's possible.

Possible, but if you place the only copy of the data that you have on the Time Capsule, you then have to figure out how to back up that data to another drive.
Things may be simpler...with faster performance....if you add a USB or FireWire to your Mac, and then use the Time Machine to back up both the Mac and the hard drive to the Time Capsule.

Possible to use Time Capsule as back up for one computer and not another?

Here is what I want to do. I want to use this as a router wireless router for wi-fi. I have a mac so I want my data to be backed up automatically. now my brother also has a laptop and want him to use the wifi, but i dont want him to access any of my backed up files. is this possible? what are the steps? he has a pc thanks.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the warm welcome.
Yes, I did some research on the echolife and I don't think it has WDS functionality available. I do have another 3Com router that I'm thinking of firing up again. I know it has WDS functionality. The question is, would the Time Capsule be compatible with it in order to extend the network? I am not keen to shell out for another Apple base station if at all possible.

Since the last FF update, the Tab is vanishing when I chose a tab. I there any possibility to change this behaviour back?

I use Firefox for android on my Tablet , the Asus tf700. Since the last update, I am now on 23.0, the tabs bar is always hiding as soon as I change the tab or touch the website, irrespective of screen orientation. Is there any configuration option to change this behaviour back?

I think such feature is being worked on.

How can I use my time capsule with Ethernet cable? How is it also possible to use time capsule as a normal external hard drive?

My problem is that I don't know how to use my Time Capsule with Ethernet Cable, as when I use wireless it is really slow.

Make sure that there is an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on your modem/wireless router to the WAN port on the Time Capsule
Click on the Wireless tab at the top of the page
Change the setting for Wireless Mode to Off (I assume that you do not want the Time Capsule to provide a wireless network since you already have a wireless network)
Next, click the Internet icon at the top of the screen, then click the Internet Connection tab
Connect Using = Ethernet
Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
Click the Update button at the bottom and wait 30 seconds for the Time Capsule to restart and display a green light
Then, you must power off your entire network...all devices....in any order that you want
Wait a minute
Start your modem/router first and let it run a minute
Start the Time Capsule and let it run a minute
Keep starting devices one at a time until everything is powered up
If you are using Time Machine for backups, you will need to reset the connection because you have changed the way in which the Time Capsule connects to your network
Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Open Time Machine
Click Select Disk
Click the Time Capsule to highlight it
Click Use for Backup or, it might be Use Disk
Now you can connect your Mac using an Ethernet cable to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule to back up using Ethernet. Be sure to turn off the wireless on your Mac before you start the backup.
If you want to backup using wireless, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the Mac to the Time Capsule and turn on the wireless and connect to your wireless network. Your computer will now backup using wireless.

Is it possible to configure Time Capsule to work with Time Machine (MBP) and Genie Timeline (PC)

I have an Apple Time Capsule (2TB) and I need to configure it to work with my MBP and Time Machine and also back up my a PC with Genie Timeline Pro 2013 (or any other suggested PC back up software).
Setting it up to work with Time Machine is simple enough but the PC access is proving to be difficult.
http://www.genie9.com/support/KB/KnowledgeArticle.aspx?KBID=198
I followed the above steps but still can't connect to the network drive. I have reformatted the TC and will be walking through the steps again. My concern is that the two different operating systems (Win8 and Mavericks) can't share the same destination drive.
I have created two user accounts with drive sharing activated. One in my name for my MBP and the other in the name of my partner for her Dell laptop.
Should the Time Capsule be partitioned? Can it even be partitioned? When I use Drive Utility it can't see the TC. The only way to connect to it seems to be via Airport Utility.
On a seperate note the TC Router Mode is set to OFF (Bridge Mode). I have connected it to the ADSL modem/router (WiFi Off) via the WAN port. All seems to be well. Am I loosing any useful functionality by doing this?
The internet settings are set Connect Using DHCP. I have no issues but I am not really sure what it means and if I should be using other settings. The ADSL modem/router seems to have all the PPP0E settings.
The WiFi on the TC has been set up with a 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz network as well as a Guest Network. I then plan to introduce 2 Airport Express (MB321LL/A). One will be an access point for AirPlay and the other a wireless extender with AirPlay.
There is also a Canon WiFi printer that accesses the 2.4Ghz network. It has an Ethanet port so I am wondering if I should disable the wifi connection and cable it and if so to the TC or the DSL modem/router.

Lion, 7.6.1 firmware and iCloud offers remote access.
http://www.apple.com/au/support/icloud/back-to-my-mac/
To do it without the iCloud service your issue is static public IP address.. if you have one this is simple to the point of trivial. If not it is very hard, as Apple did not put in a standard dynamic DNS service.. (ensuring you were roped into their cloud accounts). Static IP from your ISP is the best solution.. if it is possible go for it.
Then the actual protocol for access is AFP, so the only device you can do this on is a Mac.
Do you have the TC as the main router?
If you want any other kind of access, or to avoid icloud use vpn.. which teamviewer is a kind of.. but buy a real vpn router, and bridge the TC.. you can then vpn into your network with full security and get windows access via smb..

Airport Utility won't let me change time capsule settings....

I've had my TC about 2 weeks, and haven't had any problems until now....
when I am in close proximity, i use it with an ethernet cable, and if i am in other parts of the house i will set it to transmit wirelessly. up until now there hasn't been any problems with this. now however, it is connected via ethernet, and when i open airport utility it recognises the TC, but when i click continue to update the settings and change it back to wireless, it get's stuck on the "reading the time capsule's configuration..." page, and after five minutes says "there was an error with the connection-6722".
I can read files from the TC and write to it. i just can't update the settings! can anyone help??
thankyou.

This has me a bit confused as to why you're doing this.
I say this because my Macbook is sometimes directly connected to the TC over a wired network connection, and sometimes wirelessly via the TC. It has no trouble backing up regardless of what connection is utilized. I just leave the wireless enabled on the TC, and so have no need to re-configure the TC. I can read the TC configuration with the Airport Utility via either connection.
I'm not sure this helps, but am I missing something??
Mac OS X, Airport Utility & TC all at latest levels......

Is it possible to use Time Capsule with Apple TV? Without having our macbook pro, iPhones or iPads as middle link?

Hi there.
I wanted to buy a time capsule - But my big question is : Is it possible to use the time capsule with Apple Tv ( Newest generation.) without having an Iphone, Ipad or mac as middlelink?
So if I example want to have all our music and dvds on the Time Capsule and watch/hear it on my TV. Do I have to have one of our macbook pro's started up to get it to work?
Hope you understand what I'm trying to say here.. ? Hehe.
Best Regards
Christian

But then I can have all dvds and music on a time capsule and then run it via itunes on my mac and from there to the apple tv
Yes, if you move the iTunes Media Folder to the Time Capsule.
But.....if you move the iTune Media Folder to the Time Capsule.....how are you planning to back up this important data?
(You will lose everything in the Media Folder when.....not if....the Time Capsule has a problem and you do not have a backup copy.)
A much safer plan would be to keep the iTunes Media Folder on your Mac.....or add another hard drive connected to the Mac and move the Media Folder to that drive.
Then Time Machine will backup both your Mac and and hard drive. So, you have "originals" on one drive and backups on another.

Changing Time Capsule IP Address

My internet modem IP address was changed due to recent thunderstorm. Problem now is my time capsule is the old IP address. Can someone let me know where to find my new address at and how do i change it in the time capsule?

By default your Time Capsule will receive an IP Address from your ISP via the Internet modem that it is connected to. That is, typically, because you would have the Time Capsule perform as a DHCP client. (It's default configuration.)
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

HT3728 change time capsule password

I want to change my time capsule password, since it's too simple.

Recently, Apple has been using the same password for both the base station and wireless, but if you only want to allow other users to use the wireless.....and not be able to change any of the settings on the Time Capsule.......then you would need to use a separate password for the base station and a separate password for the wireless.
On your Mac.....
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon
Click Edit in the smaller window that appears
To change the Base Station Password, click on the Base Station tab at the top of the window and edit the Base Station Password, then enter again to Verify.
Then, click on the Wireless tab. If you want to use same password as the Base Station, enter the same password and verify. If you want to use a separate wireless password, then enter the password that you want to use in the Wireless Password and Verify.
Then, click Update at the lower right of the window and allow a minute for the Time Capsule to restart with the new settings.

AirPort Utility allows changing Time Capsule disk password with a device password only

Hello!
I just noticed that changing disk password is allowed for anyone who has a Time Capsule device password. (AirPort Utility WIndows version)
I find that illogical.
Is it a kind of bug or it is intended to be this way?

Well, lets say that you had friends or other family members that use the Time Capsule for wireless connections.
And, you have files on the Time Capsule drive that you only want to share with one other person. If you use a disk password, only the person with the disk password will be able to see the files on the drive.
If you don't set up a disk password, then anyone who is using the Time Capsule wireless will be able to see the files on the drive.
So, if you want everyone to have access to the files on the drive, then use the device password.
If you do not want everyone to have access to the files on the drive, then use a disk password
