ITunes doesn't connect via time capsule

Cannot access iTunes store via the time capsule. Internet connectivity fine otherwise. Running OS X Lion.

Hello Frustrated61,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I suggest that we restore the Network defaults from the printer menu.
I have also located a document on when the Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection. This will give you instructions on how to set a static IP address.
I have also located an Apple document that gives instructions on how to Set up a printer connected to a Time Capsule or AirPort base station.
Thank you for your time.

My Mac Mini (Mid 2011) doesn't connect to Time Capsule in 5GHz Network. This WiFi Network don't appear in the WiFi list. What's Wrong?

Oh yes, & 5 GHz doesn't do walls very well at all.
GHz and Network Range
The higher the frequency of a wireless signal, the shorter its range. Thus, 2.4 GHz networks cover a substantially larger range than 5 GHz wireless networks. In particular, the higher frequency wireless signals of 5 GHz networks do not penetrate solid objects nearly as well as do 2.4 GHz signals, limiting their reach inside homes.

Photosmart 6520 won't connect via Time Capsule

Just bought a Photosmart 6520 printer. I have tried to connect it to my wireless network via Time Capsule but the printer thinks MAC address filtering is turned on so is unable to connect. I have checked using Airport utility to make sure MAC address filtering is turned off, which it is, and all other wireless devices connect without any problem. If I move the printer around the house I can connect via an Airport Express but I don't want the printer upstairs. Seems to be a communication problem between the printer and Time Capsule. I have updated the Firmware on the Time Capsule
Any one any ideas please?

External Hard Drive Connected via Time Capsule USB

I've saved all my iMovie files on an external hard drive originally connected to my iMac via a USB port. Now, I'm connecting the same hard drive to the USB port on my Time Capsule but iMovie can't access the files. The hard drive shows up in iMovie but has a yellow triangle with a "!" on it? What is my problem here?

You can probably fix this by creating a symbolic link to your time machine-attached drive. I have never done this myself, so you may want to search the iMovie 08 forum for Time Machine and//or Symbolic Link.
The search function is on the right just above your name.

Problems with printer and external HD connected via Time Capsule with Windo

Hello everyone!
In January I bought an iMac 27 "(OS version: OS X 10.6.2) and a week ago a Time Capsule 1TB.
I connected the iMac and a laptop with Windows XP SP3 both via ethernet to the TC, and to the USB port of the TC a USB hub to which I connected a Canon iP4200 and a LACIE 500GB HARD DISK.
I reformatted the hard disk file system to Lacie Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and installed MacDrive 8 in the laptop.
Now (after formatting the HD), with the iMac everything works: internet connection via ethernet or wireless, printing via ethernet or wireless as well as hard disk connection via ethernet or wireless.
Laptop, instead, is only able to connect to the internet via ethernet or wireless while it isn't able to see and use printer and external hard drive, even though I installed AirPort Utility for Windows!
The laptop also detects the AirPort disk of the TC but if I enter the (correct) password I get an error message!..
Please, somebody help me, I do not know what to do!
Thanks

Have you run Bonjour on the Win PC's? Do a search on the support page and there's a description on getting things up and running from a WinPC in a Mac environment.

Lost internet connection via time capsule, wireless signal grayed out. What may be wrong?

My mac mini started intermitently losing connection to the Internet. Checked settings, look OK, no changes. Wireless signal icon in the menu bar is sometimes full sometimes grayed out (no connection at all). Other computers connecting via the same Time Capsule without any problems. I've serched forums and tried some suggestions to no avail. My mini is core 2 duo 1.83 GHz, 2GB RAM. Snow Leopard up to date.
What may be wrong?

Well, I reset the TimeCapsule to factory settings and configured it again for my home network and all works like a charm again.

Using Printer via Time Capsule for Windows

Hi,
Could you please guide me how can I use printer connect to my time capsule from windows based PC. I can do it from my mac but unable to print it from Windows PC.
I have also downloaded Bonjour, it detects my HP printer 1018 but when it comes to driver it is not able to locate also tried so many different option for the driver but unfortuntely no luck so somebody please guide me to print (HP Laserjet 1018 printer) from windows connected via Time Capsule 2TB.

When you setup the printer choose a local printer.. then change the port to TCP/IP and type in the IP of the TC.
Complete the setup.. and choose the 1018 HP printer drivers.
That should be all there is to it.
Download the airport utility for windows and see if the printer is there.
Ensure you have the TC setup in WORKGROUP for file sharing.
Make sure the computer is in home.. not work or public.
Make sure you do not have homegroup activated.
If that doesn't work turn off the firewall and try again.

VNC remote my computer from Internet via time capsule

I have several computers connected with Airport via time capsule to Internet.
When I am out of office, how can I remote one of the computers from the Ipad? I use Mocha VNC
I´ve been trying but impossible to find the complete IP or DNS name, my IPAD do not find any of the computers if connected via Time Capsule
I have no prob when connecting one computer to modem directly , It works fine If I write the IP on my IPAD.
Back to my mac and VNC password settings seems correct.

Try locking the wireless channels for 2.4ghz.. instead of auto use 1, 6 or 11. Test each in turn.
I would also suggest using a SMB name.. ie short, no spaces.. pure alphanumeric.
Did you happen to upgrade to latest iOS?? People are experiencing some bugs.. which is no real suprise.
Has the phone worked before and stopped working after some change you made.. or have you never been able to connect using this phone.

Windows XP won't connect to Internet via Time Capsule AE

I've got a MacBook Pro and MacBook using Airport Extreme via Time Capsule. I recently partitioned MacBook Pro and added Windows XP via Boot Camp. The XP sees the Airport but cannot connect. I've added the same key to XP as used for Mac access, but it still doesn't connect.
Its a WPA2 Personal Key. XP allows WEP, WPA, and WPA-??? (there are three other letters there that are NOT "2" or "Personal"). It allows one of two "types" that are TKIP or AS? (Three letters that I can't remember.) I'm completely lost.
I also tried changing channels, but that's frustrating unless I just change from the PC end. I had been changing them on the Mac, then rebooting to XP to see what happens. (Nothing, so far.)
Has anyone successfully gotten XP on the Wireless?

XP wireless to a Time Capsule works fine. Problem is, as you've found, choosing the right wireless security, then entering the key in the right format.
Because of this problem in mixed OS X / XP networks, I've stuck with WEP. It's less secure, but it works!
I live in a rural area, so wireless security isn't really an issue.
Try reconfiguring your TC to use WEP. Once you've got it working, investigate the other security options.

I've tried and tried several times to Connect my device to my PC and follow the onscreen instructions in iTunes to download the update from Apple. Problem is iTunes doesn't connect to my iPad so that I can update to iOS 5. I don't see the iPad icon when iTunes loads. I have looked in my computer and see the iPad is recognized. Any one else having this problem? This is also happening with my iPod
Thank you, Ripley

I haven't updated yet. Apple's download servers have been too busy. Did you know you can update via wifi instead of connection to your computer?
Here's a description of the update. Not a lot of changes for iPad 1/2.
iOS 5.1 Software Update

You can wait a while & update at your convenience.

Help connecting 2TB Time Capsule to iMac via ethernet cable only

I have an iMac running OS X Version 10.9.3, and a 2 TB Time Capsule, which at our last residence I used both as my wireless router and Time Machine backup (via wi-fi). We recently moved and got Comcast, which provided us with a very, very fast router. As a result, I would like to start using the Time Capsule only as a Time Machine backup, preferably via an ethernet cable connection. I tried connecting the Time Capsule to the iMac via an ethernet cable with no joy. When I did, it seemed to bring back my old wireless network, which I don't want. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Is it something specific about the Comcast modem/router that makes it so I have to plug an ethernet cable into it too (as opposed to just running an ethernet cable directly from my iMac to the Time Capsule, which is what I assumed was possible and was hoping to do)?
Nothing specific about the Comcast modem/router, but definitely something specific about the Time Capsule in that it needs to connect to the Comcast modem/router over a wired connection to allow backups to occur over the Comcast wireless network. As we have said, the Time Capsule must connect to the Comcast modem/router using an Ethernet cable, as you see illustrated in the TC Setup Guide.
This solution doesn't really work, as our computer/TC is upstairs and the Comcast modem/router is downstairs.
Ethernet cabling can be run 300+ feet, or about 100 meters with virtually no signal loss, so you should be able to locate the Time Capsule anywhere that you want. My Time Capsule is located in a closet, about 60-70 feet away from the main router.
is there a way that I can use the TC as an upstairs wifi extender and still do my Time Machine back-ups wirelessly?
Yes. When the TC connects to the Comcast modem/router using an Ethernet connection, you could use the wireless capability of the TC to create a wireless network with the same wireless network name and password as the Comcast network. Then, you will have the same network upstairs and downstairs with much greater range.
You will be able to backup to the TC using wireless....or, if you prefer a much faster connection....connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <--> ports on the TC.
For example, let's say that you are making the first backup from your Mac to the TC when everything on the Mac is copied over to the TC. Typically, this might take 8-10 hours on average using wireless, but Ethernet would require only about 2-3 hours.
Once you have the first complete backup done, you could then perform subsequent backups over wireless, since these will only take a few minutes each time that the Mac backs up with only the changes that have occurred since the last backup.

I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house and the mobile WiFi is our only option). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

LOL!!
I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
But please note the end result of this setup..
very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

I've had a new hard drive installed and reloaded all my stuff via time capsule and now can't connect to the internet although it say Airport is connected. How can I fix this problem ?

Just had a new hard drive for my iMac and reloaded all my stuff via time capsule, all works fine apart from Safari which won't connect to internet. Airport is connected but each time Safari comes back saying there is no connection....any help gratefully recieved.

So you have the apple rotuer called a time capsule and you have complete the frist time machine back up? but there is not internet access ?
If so.
Opem airport utiltiy on your Comptuer :
What is the IP ? > if its 169.254.xx.xx > its a self assigned
Try power cycling the Internet source for up to 1 mintue and make sure all the lights turn off.
In Airport Utility Version 5.5.3 / 5.6.1
Gi > Intenret > conncetiong sharing > Is it off bridge mode change it to share a public Ip address
In airport Utility version 6.0/6.1
Edit > network > rotuer mode : Should be DHCP and NAT unless you use PPPoE to conecnt to the internet then this is automatically invoked.

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.

I am connected to time capsule via wi-fi but air port says not connected and disk utility does not see it

I am connected to time capsule via wi-fi but air port says not connected and disk utility does not see it. I had it connected via ethernet and it still did not see it. Then i disconncectd it from ethernet and did the Wi-fi connection and am able to post this message but air port still does not see it.

Disk Utility will not "see" the Time Capsule, so no need to waste any more time on that issue.
but air port still does not see it.
Not sure what you mean by "air port" here.
