Replacing 1st generation TimeCapsule with 4th gen. Tips on setting up?

Suggestions for setting up replacement Time Capsule?

There is not a huge amount of difference. Larger hard drive.. perhaps.. !! And dual band simultaneous wireless.. how you use that depends again on your setup.. but it isn't usually an issue that needs any particular setup. There is a guest network also available.. if you don't need it then leave it off.

I submitted my information to receive a replacement 1st generation nano but somehow did not notice what steps I needed to take to return the Ipod to Apple. What needs to be done after submitting the serial number information online?

They're supposed to send you a box with shipping instructions which you then use to send them your 1st generation iPod, however, I've been waiting a month for my box and can't figure out why I have not received it

HT201365 why is ios 7 not with 4th gen

ios 7 is not with 4th gen why is it not with it please put it with it

iOS 7 apparently requires at least 512MB of RAM. The fourth generation iPod touch only has 256MB, and therefore won't get it.

I upgraded from a 1st generation to the 4th generation Time capsule Model A1409. Since then I am getting interference on my wireless transmitter that sends signals from my Pay TV box to another TV downstairs. Is it the dual frequency and how do I stop i

I upgraded from a 1st generation to a 4th generation time capsule (model A4109) and since then my pay TV wireless transmitter has pulsating interference. This is obviously due to the new dual band frequency of the TC. Is there any way I can set it to one band and what will that do?

Go in and manually set the wireless channel for 2.4ghz or 5ghz (whichever your av sender is).. try different channels.

Issues with 4th gen ipod touch that I did not have with 1st gen

Got the 4th gen touch, and right away the most annoying thing was the pause in my music when locking/unlocking the ipod. It is a small pause, but nevertheless my 1st gen touch never had this. Is this an issue with all newer ipods or just me?
The battery is also funky, as it will run down to 3% and then the ipod turns off. Plugging in the ipod to charge turns it back on in a few minutes, as expected, but it always shows 40-42% charged when the unlock screen shows up. Do ipods quick charge to 40% from empty in 10 minutes or so?
Are these things fixable by Apple, and would I lose the engraving on the back?
The pause has been with me since I first started using the ipod. The battery issue possibly also, but I recently noticed it. A full reset, without restoring the 1st gens settings did not improve anything.

I can answer a few of these. I don't know about the pause. The battery doesn't surprise me. The new apple devices are infamous for having battery life issues. I don't think there is anything apple can do but if you take it in, you can choose to keep or give up your engraving. Keeping it will extend the repair time by a week or two.

Can't sync 1st generation nano with iTunes 11

The upgrade to iTunes 11 happened today without my consent, and now I'm finding that when I plug in my 1st gen nano to be synced, I can't find the device anywhere in iTunes and the iPod never stops syncing. Is there a fix?
I love my 1st generation iPod nanos, and Apple doesn't offer anything with its form factor anymore (small, light, controls you can use without looking). Also 3rd gen and later nanos don't work with accessories that I depend on for my car and home (they won't charge). I recently bought my second 1st gen from Amazon (used). If my iPods stop working, I'll probably ditch iTunes and iPods altogether and switch to some other device/library/purchase ecosystem.

Honestly, I probably would, except Apple doesn't make an iPod like the one I have anymore. The new nanos have touch screens, and when I asked at the Apple Store whether it's possible to work them without looking (like in the car), they told me that I should go on-line and buy an older, refurbished iPod nano. Which I did, just a couple months ago. And now it doesn't seem to work with iTunes anymore. (And then there's also the fact that I won't be able to play a new nano in my car, but that's a longer story.)
This is the price of buying into a closed ecosystem with few device choices, and this may be the last straw for me. Apple may think it's being smart by making money off unnecessary upgrades, or maybe in the cost/benefit analysis they decide it's not worth making their new software backward-compatible with their own devices. But I was a good Apple and iTunes customer, and if I manage to find an alternative to iTunes/iPod, they won't get me back.
Heck, if I can't find an alternative, maybe I'll do a start-up and build one.

Help needed with 4th gen. iPod shuffle and "reshuffling" music

I have a silver 4th gen. iPod shuffle that works well for me. I had 196 songs on it and in the last couple of days, I added 14 more. Now, I have 210 songs on it. Cool. The issue I have is NONE of the new songs play. I do get a good mixture of music and it's pretty random but in the 7 or so hours I listened to my iPod today at work, NONE of the new songs I added played at all. I would guess at least one of the new songs would have played but none did.
I found the iPod manual online in PDF format and read the instructions for "reshuffling" the iPod, but I'm not sure that worked. So, here are my questions:
When I add new music, must I manually "reshuffle" the songs manually or should that happen automatically?
When I "reshuffle" the songs, I follow these steps: "To reshuffle songs, slide the three-way switch from shuffle (icon) to play in order (icon) and back to
shuffle again. Must the iPod be playing music when I do this or does that matter?
I manually add the music to the iPod and don't automatically sync anything, nor do I have any playlists.
Thanks in advance!
Peace...

You may want to play the shuffle with the switch in the middle play-in-order position. Then, when you play songs from the All Songs list, they play in alphabetical order. That should make it easier to confirm that songs on the new batch does actually play (because the order is not random).
Also, there are only about 200 songs on there, so keep hitting Next until hear one of the new songs. If you get back to the first song without hearing one of the new songs, something is wrong.
It should not matter when you do the reshuffle step, whether the iPod is playing or not.
Have you checked using iTunes, to confirm the new batch of songs is on the shuffle? If the iTunes sidebar is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. The shuffle appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES. Click the small triangle to the left of the shuffle's name, to drop down its content list (indented below the shuffle) Click on Music there. The list of songs on the shuffle is shown to the right. Are those 14 new songs on the list?

Replacing Westell 6100 modem with Netgear Genie

Good day. I'm replacing Westell 6100 modem with a Netgear Genie. I need the following data to complete hookup. Thanks.
Netgear Broadband ADSL2+ Modem (DMP111SP)
IP Address
Subset Mask
Default gateway
Preferred DNS Server
Alternative DNS Server

Since you're plugged into the Westell, use http://192.168.1.1/ to log into the modem. From there, see if your modem shows something along the lines of "Routed Bridge" mode or if it shows "PPPoE" as the connection type. If PPPoE, follow the post I mentioned above. The same goes with Routed Bridge mode. Worst case scenario, call Verizon and have them ensure your Westell is configured correctly if you cannot get online with the Westell, and from there we'll see how the Netgear needs to be configured.
Also, what may have happened here is your Netgear's IP address could have changed. You will want to open up a Command Prompt Window (Start > search for the program "cmd.exe" or go to Start > Run > enter in cmd.exe) and run the command ipconfig. Default Gateway should give the IP of the router you're attached to in a home network.

How do I completely remove this last piece of the 1.0 Updater for Windows, since re-installing does not work? I even cleaned the registry...
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any entries called "ipod for windows \[date]" or "ipod updater \[date]" or just "ipod for windows" in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
Quit out of CleanUp, and restart the PC.
Does an itunes install go through properly after that?

Super slow wifi with 4th gen Time Capsule

So, I got my 4th gen 3TB Time Capsule yesterday, hooked it up to my main computer (iMac, mid 2010) with ethernet cable, updated the firmware, and let it sit for it's first back up.
Today when I was going to properly set up the wifi at home (two room apartment) it seemed to be going well, iPhone and iPad get decent wifi, it just seems that the wifi range in the apartment isn't as good as with my old junky Belkin router, but it manages. But then I started up a PC running Windows 7 (64-bit) and connected to the wifi network, tried to download something off of Steam and hit about 114kb/s as max download rate (but the average speed is just a couple of kb/s, if even that)... Before I downloaded at about 1-1,5mb/s.
I started Steam through Parallels Desktop on my iMac and tried downloading through there, and had a download rate of about 3mb/s, so I'm blaming it on the wifi.
I fooled around with the Time Capsules wireless settings, 802.11a/n - 802.11b/g/n / b/g and so forth, with only a decrease in performance, the automatic setting works the "best". I tried giving the 5GHz network it's own name but I dunno, I can't find the network with that name through the PC. But still, as I don't get the same consistent wifi cover in my apartment as with the Belkin router, I'm thinking something is generally messed with the Time Capsules wifi, not just the PC.
Any ideas, any solutions? It would be greatly appreciated!

Today I also tried connecting my Playstation 3 to the router, both are in the same room, about 5 meters apart, t'was SLOW And needless to say, with the Belkin router it was much, much faster. For once I'm not blaming Windows on this one.
Also, ran a speedtest app on my iPhone, it was MUCH faster yesterday with the time capsule (though not satisfactory), today it's about 1/10th of yesterdays slow speed...

Can bomberman game work with 4th Gen ipod Nano?

In the games section it says they all work for the 3rd and 4th gen ipods and then inside the games it says different in some cases, and in the bomberman game one it says only the 3rd gen nano, will this not work with the 4th gen nano? Lemme know thanks! AIM me at azrael4791 about this! THanks!

You're looking at this one, right?
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewGame?id=270226845&s=143441
Interesting, the main page does say 3rd & 4th gen nanos, but the Bomberman page doesn't. However some of the other games I checked randomly do say 4th gen nano.
If I were you, I'd contact Hudson Software - the makers of that iPod click-wheel game.

Time capsule 1st generation - extension with air port extreme

My parents use a time capsule (1st generation) as wireless lan device. As they run a boarding house they wish to provide free internet access to all of their guests (in all rooms). Therefore I bought an air port extreme station to extend the network as this product now (finally) includes the option »guest network«.
The question is the following: *Should I keep the time capsule as basic device connected to the modem and use the air port extreme as extension or do you recommend to set it up vice versa?*
I checked the range of the time capsule: It can be used in already in the first floor but not in the second anymore.
I am really unsure how I should approach this topic and I hope more expirienced users can provide some help to this issue. Maybe you can also give me some security advice. In order to protect kids from misusing this new possiblity I was thinking of using opendns to block certain websites. Maybe there are also betters ways of doing this?

Need a bit more info.
Now this is what happens when I plug it in:
Plug it into power?? The main router?? Sorry I am unclear what you are plugging it into.
It sounds like you have not done the setup.
The TC should be in bridge and plugged into the current modem router you have.. and powered on full time.
If you cannot access it via the utility, I strongly suggest you buy the apple usb to ethernet dongle.. which helps air people no end.. or use any other computer that has a real ethernet port.
Otherwise set to factory and start over. (this will not do anything to what you already have on the disk).
Hold in reset and power on the TC.. wait about 10sec until the front led rapidly flashes. .then you can connect the computer.. and do the setup.. choose bridge in the Network section of the utility and update the TC.
Then you can plug it into the main router and access it and internet at the same time.. either by TC wireless or the main modem wireless.
Please note. .Gen1 TC is only going to last very little time.. it is already well past the average lifespan.. many died at 2years.. most gone by 4years.. plan on storing nothing important on it.

1st Generation AppleTv with red images and disconnecting

Hello,
My AppleTv has been working with absolutely no problems until today. I went to turn it on and the tv blinked from static to black every few seconds. I pushed the Menu button on my remote to see if it helped anything and I finally was able to see the AppleTv menu, but the images were blurry and with red pixels around them. This also blinked on and off the screen every few seconds.
I turned it off, disconnected it and left it alone for 5 mins. Then I reconnected it and the issue is exactly the same.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Beca

One of my original Apple Tvs suffered a similar fate - the menu graphics would freeze, not just movies - a restore back down to the very original software helped a little but that caused its own issues
Definitely a Graphics issue with the unit itself, possibly related to heat build up. Cut my losses and bought a gen 2 model as a replacement.

Docking systems compatible with 4th Gen Nano?

Can anyone give me a list of current docking stations on the market that are compatible with the new 4th generation Nano chrome? I'm looking to get one for my daughter who got one for Christmas. And, as many of you have mentioned, I was unpleasantly surprised to see that it is incompatible with my existing docking systems!
Thanks.
