Lost the power cord for time capsule!

So I've lost the power cord for my time capsule. I went to an Apple store and they don't sell them but the employee said that it is a standard cord and I should be able to pick one up at a Radio Shack or the like? Has anybody else had to do this? I can't find the specs on the time capsule either of exactly what type of cord is needed.

who ever told you that has Model: 61-2876 | Catalog #: 61-2876 cord in mind. I'm not sure if it will work...it looks close....are you saying you were told you can't order a replacement cord from Apple?

Length of the power cable for Time Capsule

This probably sounds like a ridiculous question, but I need to know how long the power cable is that comes with the Airport Time Capsule. I'm planning to buy one this week but will need to move some things around to accommodate it, hence my question!

72 inches or about 183 Centimeters.

I just bought a new iMac 27'' a week ago and been having problems every morning when i come to the office with turing the system on. I have to unplug the power cord for 10 secs and replug for it to turn on. Kindly pls advise

Anyone having the same problem?

Makes no difference if anyone is having the same problem. The important thing is that it's happening to YOU!
You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked.
Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out. Let Apple deal w/the problems.

HT4619 What is the hole under the power cord for?

Wondering how to turn my iMac back on after a power surge. Happened once before and was able to reset it by unplugging cord, holding down start button, then reattaching power cord and pressing the start button again. This only worked when I took it to the Mac outlet store though. When I try this, it doesn't work. Outlets and power source (aps) have power. Trying to avoid a trip with my 27" iMac to the store.
is the hole under the power cord a reset?
Thanks

Deborah,
Here are the specific steps for performing a SMC reset just so it's clear (note bolded bits):
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
Dave
P.S. If this doesn't work, repeat the process again only bypassing your APS conditioner completely this time using a standard AC wall outlet for testing/powering your mac. The APS unit may have an internal fault of some sort.

When I connect my MacBook Air to iPads through a powered USB hub the power cord for the hub explodes and trips the fuse on the building. I've tried different iPads, cords, power points to no avail.

When I connect my mac air to some iPads through a powered USB hub for VPP/Configurator, the power point for the hub blows out (tripping the fuse in the building). I've tried different iPads, cords, power points and of course hubs. Also the computer has a habit of shutting down when any type of USB device is removed from it. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I've done some experimenting, and this is what I've found out:
1) The problem persists when I reformatted the USB HDD devices to ExFAT, so the problem apparently wasn't due to NTFS for Mac OS X by Paragon.
2) The problem persists even when BackBlaze is paused, so I don't think that it's due to BackBlaze.
3) The internet cuts out as soon as data begins transferring either to or from a USB HDD device and won't reconnected until I eject and unplug the device.
4) The problem affects data transfers through either USB port.

Anyone know where I can buy the power cord for intel imac

i lost the power wire to my imac and i don't know where to buy it
anyone know where can I get it and how much it costs?

Newer iMacs use ordinary computer power cords commonly used on all sorts of electronic equipment.
The power cord used on G5 iMacs (I think) is different but is also readily available. Either one will cost you less than $10.

Where can you get the power cord for a 2012 airport express?

Where can you get a power cord for a 2012 airport express or the equivalent? I couldn't find one in the online store.

I'm sure the OP found his solution, but I wanted to share mine in case it helps some future seeker.
There are a lot of brand new cords on eBay for less than $10 including shipping, which is way cheaper than the $39 stereo connector kit or an AC adapter from a retailer. I just bought a used-like-new one for $5.50.
The cord is made by Volex, part number APC7Q. The Apple part number is M9573LL/A. If the seller got it from the stereo adapter kit, they'll probably list it under MD836LL/A, which is the kit's part number. I got the best search results on eBay using just the Volex part number.
Best of luck!

Power cord of Time Capsule from USA can use in Asia or not?

I bought Time capsule from USA.Can I use that power cord in Thailand? Or do I have to use adaptor?

Time Capsule have universal power supplies.. 100-240v.. you should have no problem.
I do always recommend you read the bottom label of a device.. if it nowhere says 110v only you can assume pretty well it is universal.

Question to the Power Users RE: Time Capsule Disk Mgmt and Security

I was real excited to get the Time Capsule, but now since I have it I have to say its lack of security and disk management features are disappointing.
I am thinking of giving up on Time Machine backups completely (I have never been thrilled with TM) and using the Backup 3.0 that is available to .Mac users. If I backup one machine using TM to the TC, I can login from a different machine and modify/delete the backups, this is not secure from accidental or malicious access.
What I am hoping to do is to create logical partitions on the drive and use a program like PGP to encrypt the disk. This so far has been a real pain in the @$$ because of the lack of disk mgmt with the TC.
I have used the OS X disk utility to create a disk image (takes forever) and it does not automagically mount itself, so PGP will not recognize it is a disk. I then decided to start over and use the Airport Utility to erase the disk (this has been running for about 12 hours now, and is still flashing amber). I am not sure if this TC is DOA or just slow as cr@p.
If anyone has any ideas on how to make an out of the box TC more secure, please share.

Have you been able to get all of your applications to recognize the disk image as a place to save/create/modify files?
All applications? Only tried some - but since I was able to copy 56GB of iTunes content to the drive and access it with TuneRanger - I am fairly certain it is universally available.
With the encrypted disk image, can you decrypt that image from another machine with a passphrase? I believe the answer is no, which is why I want to use PGP to encrypt the disk image.
I believe the image is not machine restricted. The only encrypted image I have is on a USB memory stick. I will have to try and open it on my other mac.
I did create a 50GB disk image successfully, however I changed my mind and decided I wanted to create an image using the entire TC disk.
I deleted the disk image I had created, as well as the TM backups on the disk. I then used the Airport Utility to do a "quick" erase of the disk, and now 36 hours later it is still erasing the disk.
That sounds wrong.

Which is the best Option for Time Capsule setup.

Got my 2Tb time capsule today, burning to get home to set the whole system up but I have a few questions i'd like help with befor I jump in...
Here is my setup.
1) Cable internet connection running wifi through a Netgear WNR 2000 Which is a Wireless N device..
2) 2TB Time Capsule just unwrapped.
3) Macbook Pro
4) iphone
5) Hp office laptop running XP Sp 3
5)Really complicated appartment layout which makes a single Wifi base station battle for coverage in the entire appartment.
Ok so here is what I was thinking..
Keep the Netgear as the base station and use the Time Capsule as a Bridge in my office thus extending the range of my existing network..
1) Will using the TC on a wireless network as a repeater half my connection speed while doubling my coverage?? In that case it might be worth it..
2) Do I have any reason to believe I could get better coverage using the TC as the Base Station and trying to virtually impossible task of setting up the Netgear as a bridge?
3) Any ideas on other options open to me?

Welcome to the discussion area!
+1) Will using the TC on a wireless network as a repeater half my connection speed while doubling my coverage?? In that case it might be worth it..+
Unfortunately, the Time Capsule will only "extend" a wireless network if the network has been created by another Apple "n" router. So the Netgear would not be compatible with the Time Capsule for this purpose.
If you could connect the Netgear and Time Capsule together using an ethernet cable, you would be able to create one large wireless network.
+2) Do I have any reason to believe I could get better coverage using the TC as the Base Station and trying to virtually impossible task of setting up the Netgear as a bridge?+
Not sure about "better coverage", but the Time Capsule would create dual band networks operating at both 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz so faster devices could connect at 5 GHz for maximum speed and slower devices would connect to the 2.4 GHz band.
In addition, if the Time Capsule connects directly to your cable modem, you could enable the "guest" network feature if you needed that function. (However, if the Time Capsule is configured in the network as a "bridge", the guest network feature cannot be enabled).
On a quick glance, your Netgear router does not appear to be a simultaneous dual band device. If that's the case, you could configure it to expand either the 2.4 GHz band or 5 GHz band (assuming it will handle 5 GHz) for wider wireless coverage. But, the connection between devices would need to be via ethernet cable, and as you point out, the Netgear would need to configured as a "bridge" in this type of setup.
If running the ethernet cable is simply not possible, take a look at a pair of ethernet powerline adapters to accomplish the same task using the AC wiring in your home to transmit the ethernet signal. While not as good as a straight ethernet cable, this type of connection would still yield better performance than wireless only, if the devices were compatible.

What is the power cord for the airport extreme (A1354)?

What power cord and/or adapter is used for the 2nd and 3rd generation Airport Extremes?

My TC cable has 300v printed along it (just about read if the angle to the light is OK).
Also 120v @ 2.5 amps is roughly 240v @ 1.25 amps, so current draw is less on the higher voltage.
Should be fine, as long as the correct fuses are used in the plug. Which is there to protect the cable from wall socket to appliance and not the appliance itself.

How do I connect the power cord for my 6800 Ultra card?

I am a little confused on how to connect the two Y cables that came with my ULTRA card can anyone help?

they are there if you dont have a lot of extra dongles for your vcard. You should ony use the splitters if you really need the extra connectors, otherwise go straight to the vcard from the PSU

HT1281 Where do I find the "Archive" option for Time Capsule disk in AirPort Utility

HT1281 is exactly about what I am trying to do, but AirPort Utility does not look like this on my Mac (Lion). Where do I find the "Archive" option mentioned here?

Where do I find the "Archive" option mentioned here?
Apple left this out (along with a number of other features and functions) in the new "upgraded" AirPort Utility.
Suggest that you download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion , which offers far more functionality. This version was introduced on the same day as AirPort Utility 6.0, but apparently many users missed it.
You can keep both 5.6 and 6.0 on your Mac and use the one that you want.

Power Cord for EN489AA Docking Station

I've lost the power cord for docking station EN489AA, and need to order a new one, but can't find the part number online. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Hi,
I can't work out exactly what are you trying to do but you can't use the old docking station as a stand alone device. You need computer to be able to use its ports.
Regards.

Are there any firmaware updates for time capsule?

Are there any firmware updates for Time Capsule/Time machine?
I just had a new hybrid (SSD and spinning disk) drive (750 GB) installed on my MacBook Pro and used Boot Kamp to partition it and run Windows xp. Now, my previously working Time Machine won't function. It says the "sparsebundle" is open (or in use) preventing the back-up from working properly. When I try and remove and re-install Time Capsule as the disk to back-up to, it still doesn't work. My plan "B" is get a second Time Capsule and dedicate it to the MacBook. But, I fear I'll face the same problem.
When I open to reconfigure Time Machine, the Time Capsule disk is identified as the back-up, but it's also seen in the "available disks to use for back-up" along with with Boot Kamp disk which is part of the new SSD hybrid hard drive just installed. (Remember it's the partitioned part running Windows xp.)
I've unplugged/plugged-in the ethernet internet connection and the power cord many times to no avail. The message still says the sparsebundle is in the way.
Do you think deleting Boot Kamp disk from the list of available hard drives might solve the problem?
Bill in Tulsa

TM can only use AFP and only on disks formatted HFS+ (ie Mac Extended Journaled) so it should not bring up a boot camp partition as a possible destination at all .. but I have not done that seutp.
It says the "sparsebundle" is open (or in use)
That error is well known. It should simply required the TC to be restarted..
That sometimes gets things working where the simple restart won't.
I would recommend using short names, with no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
That is C9
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
If you have a more complicated setup.. I would recommend firstly doing a TM reset in the computer.
See A4 in the same reference.
Do a verify then of the sparsebundle on the TC.. A5 but you might need to inherit the old backup if you want to continue an old backup.. A new hard disk will make the TM consider the old backup no longer belongs to the computer.. there is a UUID connection to the actual hard disk used in the backup.
Again read the info in pondini. B5 and B6.
The sparsebundle in use is C12 but there are a number of sparsebundle issues in section C.. C17 is another common issue.
Some of what you have done is not adequate.. eg disconnecting ethernet is not enough.. you need to reboot the TC.
