Is it possible to Sync Apple TV with Time Capsule ?

Thinking about upgrading my router as well as having a large storage capacity for my photos, videos and music I bought a 2 TB Time capsule.

Is it possible to sync Apple TV with Time Capsule ?
I'm not entirely sure what you are asking here. You can use the TC for your itunes media instead of locally on your PC, you will still need to run itunes on your PC though to sync any of the content to the apple tv.
Is it possible to use Time Capsule to back up a Vista based computer ?
I don't see why not.
Is it possible to back up my iTuens library on my Time Capsule ?
Yes, but if you intend keeping the original content on the TC (as per Q1), I'm not so sure it would be a good idea, most people seem to lose content through drive failures rather than deleting by mistake, a drive failure would wipe out the original media and the back up at the same time.

  • How to Sync iPhone/iPad with Time Capsule (wirelessly)

    Hi - I am wondering if there is way to sync my iPhone or iDevices with Time Capsule wirelessly.  Please let me know if there is and how?
    Thanks in advance..

    The iOS devices....iPhones, iPads, iPods, etc.....sync to iTunes on your computer or to iCloud.
    See this Apple support document:

    It is not possible to sync iOS devices directly to the Time Capsule.

  • Using Apple TV With Time Capsule

    Will the latest Apple TV work with Time Capsule without a computer running? I don't want to have to switch on my Mac Mini every time to use the Apple TV. If not, please could someone tell me what you can and can't do with the mac mini on or off.
    Many thanks

    AppleTV will work witghout a computer if you just want the internet features like movie/TV show rentals, YouTube, Netflix etc if available in your country.
    To stream content from your local itunes library, even if that content is stored on a TC, iTunes must be running.

  • Using my Apple Tv with Time Capsule

    I would know if it is possible to store movies and photos on Time Capsule, not in a folder in the back up folder, and displays them to the Apple TV, use it as an external HD. How can I do this?

    You would need to treat the Time Capsule as a network drive location storing iTunes media - the compuer running iTunes would need to be on with iTunes running.
    No way currently to get AppleTv to see TC without iTunes acting as intermediary.

  • Apple tv with time capsule?

    Hi Communities.
    I have recently puchased Apple tv, and I am considering buyin a time capsule. So my question is, can I stream music, videos and so on from itunes via time capsule without turning on any macs?
    Hope somebody knows this.

    No, an instance of iTunes must be running so you would need the Mac. The only other way is through an IOS device using airplay.

  • Do I need Apple TV with Time Capsule to stream to my tv?

    Hi, I bought the TC today and am currently waiting for it to finish backing up my files. I've got a Samsung Series 6 tv and would like to stream from my iMac to the tv, which are on two different floors of the house. Do I need Apple TV to do this? I also have a Nintendo Wii and an Xbox 360. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Since you noted that you were using an iPad, are you looking for printing capability from the iPad?
    If yes, you need an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print directly from the iPad. An AirPort Express is not needed for this. Check this Apple support document for more details:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    Connecting a printer that is a non-compatible AirPrint model to the AirPort Express will not make it AirPrint compatible.
    So, before we get too much further here, it might be a good idea to understand exactly what your goals are and what devices you want to use.

  • Anyone Use Different Backup Software with Time Capsule

    I love the concept of Time Machine + Time Capsule, but there are too many problems and I have wasted too many hours trying to get it to work properly. So...
    Has anyone had success using different backup software (maybe Apple Backup) with Time Capsule?
    I would love to go back in time and simply:
    1-Plug my computer into the drive (wireless is fine too)
    2-Launch my backup software
    3-Backup

    Really not sure. I've always just done bootable backups...
    You CAN create a bootable backup onto a sparse disk image on an Airdisk, but of course it wouldn't really be bootable until the backup was cloned back directly to a drive. So I guess you could back up that way, and if you needed it you could restore back to your main HDD, from the sparse image, and the computer would be restored and bootable. I think.
    My original goal was to have both Time Machine backups and SuperDuper clones ll being done over the Time capsule/Airdisks, but now (if I decide to get an AEBS or TC) I will likely only do the Time Machine backups over the wifi, and still have an occasional clone made to a drive plugged in via usb.
    To your last comment though...if your only going to do the User folder, it may make as much sense to just use Time Machine, since you can restore/migrate from a TM backup. Although it may be smart to do a user folder backup using BOTH Time Machine and SuperDuper, for redundancy.
    Sigh, always so many options, and usually doesn't work the way you want it to...

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The app will find and wake the Apple TV when homesharing is properly configured. You will still need the Apple remote should you ever need to set up the Apple TV again though.

  • Sync Apple TV with new Mac

    My old Macbook was stolen. Luckily I have my music library and photo library on Apple TV. How do I sync Apple TV with my new Macbook?

    you can't.
    the appletv does not offer the ability to sync back your own content to itunes.
    when you link the appletv to your new "empty" itunes library, all the content will be removed from the appletv.

  • Is it possible to sync the iphone with my company's email server

    Is it possible to sync the iphone with my company's email server (Novell Groupwise)? I have the option of getting a blackberry or iphone. I want the iphone, but I also want to be able to sync it with my work email since I am away from the office a lot. I know I need to contact the IT department, but I thought I would try here to see what experiences people had with this sistuation. Thanks.

    Depends on what protocols they will allow (or can). If they open up POP or better yet IMAP access, then yes, sure. It is all about the protocols available to you (them). Though note, the iPhone checks on an interval where the Blackberry has emails pushed to it. So with iPhone, the min interval time is 15mins.

  • Mavericks will not sync Apple Contacts with Google, Linkedin, and Facebook?

    I just upgraded to Mavericks. Here is what I find shocking...
    1. Mavericks will NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    2. During the upgrade, Mavericks linked some of my Apple Contact cards with Google Contacts, but not all of them. It need to be clarified that linking is not syncing. Worse, it corrupted data, and deleted some of the contacts on Google Contacts.
    3. Similarly, Apple Contacts will not sync with Linkedin or Facebook Contacts.
    4. When I contacted Apple, Level 1 support had not idea and assumed that adding a Google Account with automatically sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts as it did in OS Mountain Lion. Level 2 support did not have much of an idea either, but called me this morning to say that the matter has been escalated, and confirmed that OS X Maverick does NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts.
    CAUTION before upgrading to Mavericks:
    5. Your Google Contacts / Android devices will not be updated by Apple Contacts, and vice-versa.
    6. Your Facebook / Linkedin contats will not be updated by Apple Contacts, and vice-versa.
    The workaround:
    7. Before upgrade, ensure that your Mountain Lion or earlier address book in synced with Google Contacts.
    8. After upgrade, go to Contacts > Preferences > General > Default Account, and choose your Google Account as your default account. You will now add New Contact (or update existing Google Contacts) in Google Contacts, which your android devices can sync with. You will also see your Google Contacts in Apple Contacts. However, Apple Contacts will NOT sync with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    Welcome to Mavericks...

    With all due respect @McFly_Marty, kindly do not mislead readers. As funny as it may sound, but you have been taken for a royal ride by Apple Support. Keep in mind that the tough taskmaster Steve Jobs, is no longer there, and it is no surprise that Apple’s innovations are sliding.
    You probably have chosen Google as your default account under "Contacts > Preferences > General > Default Account”.
    Now, when you add New Contact (or update existing Google Contacts) in Google Contacts, you will also see your Google Contacts in Apple Contacts. However, Apple Contacts will NOT sync with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    Try disabling your Google account in Apple Contacts, and all your new contacts are no longer in Apple contacts. Therefore Apple contacts is not syncing with Google Contacts.
    Therefore, read the following from my original post again.
    “1. Mavericks will NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    4. When I contacted Apple, Level 1 support had no idea and assumed that adding a Google Account will automatically sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts as it did in OS Mountain Lion.

  • Apple Airport or Time Capsule with Telstra Air

    Is it possible to use an Apple airport or time capsule (connected to the gateway) with Telstra Air enabled? I believe you have to disable the wifi when connecting a gateway to an apple airport which would prevent you from using Telstra Air. Has anyone tried this? Would like to have Telstra Air but don't want to give up the time capsule.

    You can only get Telstra Air on the modems listed on this site
    https://www.telstra.com.au/broadband/telstra-air/how-to-join
    If you have one of the modems listed on that page it might work as Brizbrenz mentions, but if your modem is not on that page it definitely won't work
