Low data transfer between my iMac & Time Capsule

Hello,
I have just purchased 1GB Time Capsule yesterday to get a back-up of my iMac HDD, and also to use it as an external HDD. I was much interested by the wireless functions.
After the installation, Time Machine started to save a back-up of my HDD (more than 200GB). But after one full night, only 7GB out of 220GB was transfered wireless.
With a so low data transfer, it will take 20 days for the full back-up.
Is it normal ?
Do I have to make the first back-up though ethernet (wired) ?
I am working on big video files (xx GB), so I really need to increase the speed of data transfer. Is there someting to change in the settings ?
Thank you for your help, it will be highly appreciated...
Regards,

Data Transfer from External to Time Capsule

I have Mid 2012 Retina Display MacBook Pro and I currently have a 2Tb external HD hooked up to it but it makes my laptop less mobile, if i was to buy an airport or time capsule can i transfer everything thats on my current external HD to that and how?

This is the most difficult way to do it..
Please carefully read Pondini..
Q18 http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I would highly recommend starting over again with fresh backup and keep the old backup for archive.

Error 33172 occurred at Read & Write data transfer between two or more PF2010 controller

Hi,i need to do data transfer between two or more FP2010 controller.e.g. FP2010(A) & FP2010(B).
FP2010(A) need to transfer the measurement (from its I/O module) to FP2010(B) to do the data analysis.These data transfer should be synchronous btw two controller to prevent data lost.
From the vi used in the attachment,i encountered some problems at:
(1) Error 33172 occurred while publishing the data.Can i create and publish data under different item name?
(2) How to synchronies the read & write btw contorller?
All controller are communicating with each other directly without the need of a host computer to link them together
Is there any other method to do fast data transfer betwe
en controller?

Hi YongNei,
You were succesful in omiting enough information to make it very difficult to answer!
Please post your example.
Please tell us what version of LV-RT you are using.
Please define what you concider "fast data transfer".
Have you concidered mapping the FP tags of FP2010(A) to FP2010(B) and vise versa?
WHat exactly has to be syncronized?
If you have something that is close to working, share that.
Well, that as far as I can go with the info you have provided. Depending on the details, what you are asking could be anything from trivial to impossible with the currently available technology. I just can't say.
It would probably be a good idea to start over with a fresh question (sorry) because not many people are going to know what a a "
PF2010" is and I can not guarentee that I will be able to get back to you personally until next week-end.
Trying to help you get an answer,

Data transfer between SAP & Java and Vice versa using IDOC Process

Dear Experts,
        We are working on one of the good requirement related to data transfer between SAP and Java software. Client requirement is, they want to transfer the data in both the ways (from SAP --> Java and Vice versa also).
In detail is, after sales order creation using one custom program loading plan details will be calculated. Once loading dates are confirmed then, user will release the sales document to transfer the data from SAP to Java using "Outbound IDOC processing". Similarly in that JAVA software some shipment details will be performed, once completed from JAVA software again details needs to be pumped back to SAP as "Inbound IDOC Processing".
For this fields are already identified from external software SAP and we are looking for the same to perform the steps in SAP.
At this stage, I need your expert opinion / feedback how to go about at this stage.
Meaning,
                 1. What are the customizing steps needs to be done in SAP..?
                 2. How to trigger the :Outbound IDOC process" once the documents are "Released" from custom transaction
                 3. How to create the link between SAP and JAVA to transfer the data between these 2 software
                 4. How to trigger the "Inbound IDOC Process" from JAVA software to SAP and how to store the data in SAP
Experts, please give your feedback in terms of reply or by sending the step by step process to fulfill this client requirement.
Thanks for your cooperation.
Regards,
Ramesh

Maybe too many open questions in the same document.
Maybe you should repost a more specific question in a technical forum.
This looks like a small project where you already know what you want, maybe you should contract a technical specialist so he proceeds to the implementation!

Hi All,,
I would like to use to "secure" SSH on OS Level the file/data transfer between XI and any third-party system Run OS Command before processing and OS command After processing. right now my XI server installed on iSeries OS.
with ISeries we can't call the Unix commands hope we need to go for AS400 (CL) Programming. If we created the AS400 programm how i can call that in XI.
If any one have idea pls let me know weather it will work or not.
Thanks in adavance.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I have red some blogs like /people/krishna.moorthyp/blog/2007/07/31/sftp-vs-ftps-in-sap-pi to call the Unix Shell script in XI.

Can I access the data backed up on my time capsule remotely via the Internet?

Can I access the data backed up on my time capsule remotely via the Internet? Let us say I have all my music or photos on my time capsule at home and I want to access it while I am outside over the Internet can I do this?

See remote access methods here.

I am not sure what format these files are in.. but if they are itunes or iphoto.. have a care.. it is easy to corrupt them.

Can see other ppl's iMacs, Time Capsules...

I can see other people's iMacs/Time Capsules in my Shared menu in the left hand side of the finder. I have airport turned OFF. I don't use airport and connect to the internet through ethernet. I do have satelite internet. I had my Mac serviced because I thought I was being hacked - ppl who serviced Mac said that wasn't the case.
Is this normal, to be able to see other ppl's iMacs, Time Capsules that are in your area? Even when Airport is turned off?
This only started a couple of weeks ago when our internet was down for about a week, and the was reconnected.
Even with my airport turned completely off, why is this happening?
SO FRUSTRATED!

It makes no difference whether your AirPort is turned off or not as long as your Time Capsule is connected to the Internet connection by Ethernet, you will probably continue to see other devices under the SHARED heading in the Finder.
If you took your Mac to a hotel and connected to the Ethernet port in the room, you would also see other users under the SHARED heading. But, they cannot access your Mac or any other devices unless they have the password(s) required to do so.
The same thing will happen if you take your laptop down the coffee place and log on there using the wireless. You will see a number of other users under the SHARED heading as well. Again, there is no problem as long as they do not have the device password for your Mac
Other users can "see" you as well, so they too may be feeling a bit uneasy about things.
If what you see bothers you, you need to look into a DSL or cable connection for your home or apartment.

Hi I've recenty purchased a new imac time capsule airport express. I've set up a new network, rather than extended the current one. How do I change my new network to an extended one or create an extended network?

All Time Machine dates are white, no pink. How can I be sure data is backed up on Time Capsule, not just on iMac itself?

Apple support http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4256 says "If you back up to a Time Capsule or other network disk, a message briefly appears while Time Machine connects your computer to the backup disk." When I enter Time Machine on my iMac (OS 10.6.8) I get a window entitled "Connecting to Server" and says, "connecting to backup volume" with a horizontal blue and white barber's pole. This message goes on for about 60 seconds before Time Machine opens.
Apple support goes on to say, "Gray tick marks on the timeline represent snapshots stored on your internal drive (portable computers only). Pink tick marks represent backups stored on your backup disk." All the tick marks and dates are grey and become white when mouse is rolled over them. No dates are pink.
If I have not pink dates, are my backups stored on my Time Capsule? Or, are all backups local on the iMac itself? What do I need to do to ensure backup is on the Time Capsule?

I just backed up my whole computer on an external drive with Time Machine. I wanted to clean off my old files from my computer, but I didn't want to erase them until I knew I could go back and get particular items from the back-up.
No, No, No, a thousand times, no!
Pardon the dramatics, but don't do that. Time Machine will, sooner or later, delete the backup copies of anything that's no longer on your Mac.
Plus, of course, if you delete the originals, you no longer really have backups (backup = an extra copy in case something happens to the original).
Your best bet might be to get a larger internal HD for your Mac. Second best would be to get another external HD, format it for a Mac, and move some stuff (perhaps your entire iPhoto library) to it, and let Time Machine back up both your internal HD and the new external.

IMac - Time Capsule - TV (network bottleneck question)

I have a wireless Time Capsule being used as an external HD in addition to the Time Machine. The HD is housing my iTunes Library and I'm using it to house movies, music, etc. My question has to do with the way the media will transfer and if there's a bottleneck.
My iMac is on 802.11G talking to the Time Capsule as the wireless access point. My TV is hardwired to the TC via Ethernet. So, when TV requests media from iTunes on my iMac that it doesn't have synched, will the TV be able to get the media directly from the library on the TC (hardwired) or is there a bottleneck with the wireless iMac?
Hope this makes sense,

Winston Churchill wrote:
some will tell you it will go TC > itunes > TC > tv, it may well do but I haven't seen any conclusive evidence of this one way or another.
I'm convinced that for streaming, data is pulled from wherever it's stored (local drive, TC, USB drive etc) by iTunes them streamed to AppleTV across the network.
If this was not the case then there would be no need for itunes to be running in order to stream.
The local drive, USB drive, TC etc cannot actively push data to AppleTV as it is not a server (iTunes behaves as one for AppleTV), and equally if AppleTV could access the files directly just by knowing their locations you wouldn't need to run iTunes except to update AppleTV's list of where thing were and to sync etc.

Problems with Photoshop performance and data transfer speed on iMac

Two months ago, I started noticing slow performances using Photoshop (above all using clone stamp tool) on my 27" iMac (late 2012). I did the AHT and I found that 8GB of 32GB RAM were broken.
I removed them but the problem didn't disappered, I also noticed that data transfer speed (both copy and paste from/to internal HD and from CF card/external HD) was really slow.
I tried many solutions suggested by Apple support, none of them worked out. At the end, I tried uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop: no more problems!!!
10 days ago, I received a new 8GB RAM module and so I installed it back... suddenly, the problem came back, I tried re-installing again Photoshop but the problem, this time, still persist!
Does anyone had the same experience? All other CC programs work well (LR, AE, Premiere...)

yes, it does!
what seems to be very strange to me is how data trasnfer speed could be affected!
(just to say, I've already tried reset of SMC and PRAM, I've tried with different accounts and I've also re-installed the OS, next step would be formatting the disk and installing the OS from zero)

How do I transfer applications from AirPort Time Capsule to my new SSD?

Hi,
I wonder how to transfer my applications, Logic Studio etc, from the AirPort Time Capsule to my new SSD on the iMac. I can't do a complete restoration beacause the SSD is to small, only 255 GB. I have Mountain Lion.

Migrate what you want ..
See http://pondini.org/TM/15.html
I recommend you read the whole section 14-17 to understand the various restore options in TM.

Migrating to a new iMac, Time Capsule and external drive involved.

The family has gotten a lot of use out of the good old 2.16 iMac Core 2 Duo but it was time to upgrade. So now we have a 27” 3.2 iMac, 2x 4Gb, 1Tb of storage to migrate to.
The mess is this...
There are 4 users on the old iMac.
The old iMac is full to the brim, no room left on the HDD.
Some time ago I hooked it up to a WD 500GB external drive and moved each users music to the WD. In addition I moved the iPhoto libraries to the WD too.
Now it’s time to migrate and I’m not sure where to start. I do know where I want to end up though.
I want to move all the information that is spread across the old iMac HDD and the WD external drive to the new iMac...consolidate it back. To back things up I have a new 3Tb Time Capsule which will also wirelessly back up a Macbook Pro and a Macbook Air. For additional back up I also have a 2Tb G Tech external drive.
My thoughts are these.
Use the G Tech as a temporary bridge. Partition the drive, and back up the iMac to one side and the WD external to the other.
Then migrate the old iMac to the new iMac.
Then from the G Tech move the iPhoto libraries and the iTunes to the new iMac.
Questions I have:
There is a back up of the old iMac on the WD external that may have important information not stored on the old iMac internal drive. Is there a way to merge the files and keep the newest information and dump the redundant?
How do I ensure that my iPhoto libraries don’t get messed up? It seems that when even installing updates that now and then some thumbnails disappear.
How do I partition the Time Capsule for multiple machines?
What is the best use for the G Tech? Storage of photos and music or redundant back up of the Time Capsule?
I’m sure my post will generate as many questions as answers so I’ll stop here and see what shakes out. Thanks in advance for the input and responses.

I'm ready to use Setup Assistant now but connectivity may be an issue. Pondini's recommends Firewire. The issue is I don't have a FW400-FW800 cable. USB is all I have that is common to all my devices. Is that even a consideration? Ethernet is an option between the two iMacs but Pondini seems to elude to Migration Assitant over Setup Assistant when using that connection. Am I confused on that issue?
