Time Capsule blocks access from outside

I just changed my Airport Extreme with a Time Capsule using the "replace existing airport" option in the airport utility. I have a MacMini attached with ethernet to the Time Capsule that runs as a server (web server, ftp server, vnc) that can be accessed from the public Internet. However, after upgrading to the Time Capsule I cannot access the MacMini server from the Internet. I have tried all the settings I can think of. Both NAT with default server and NAT with configured services fail to work.
Are there any changed behaviours between these network equipment? (the Airport Extreme is the fast-ethernet version). Both uses the latest firmware and software.

There was a problem in the ISP settings - the external IP address changed when i swapped the Airport Extreme with the Time Capsule...

    I have saved my itunes Library to an exteranal drive, can I plug that drive into my Time Capsule and tell my itunes to access the music from there?

    Yes, but it's probably better to keep it connected directly to the computer.

  • Time capsule remote access from friends computer

    Heya guys.
    Ive just bought a time capsule and i really like it. It just seems to work!
    I have set it up with icloud and back to my mac. Which I am assuming that I will be able to access my time capsule when I am away from my network with my mac? Just spoke to apple support and they said thats not what its for??
    But my main question is, is there a way to log into my icloud on a friends computer and see and use the files on my time capsule?
    Thanks

    Yes, that should be possible.
    But there is plenty of slips as they say.
    See Tesserax document on remote access.

  • Can documents saved on my time capsule be accessed if not connected i.e. I am away from home and want to access documents saved on my time capsule

    Can documents saved on my time capsule be accessed if not connected i.e. I am away from home and want to access documents saved on my time capsule

    Yes, if you setup one of the methods.. see

    You must use a Mac for any of those.. if you want to use some other OS tell us. 

  • Can i store my movies on the time capsule and access to watch on my new ipad?

    can I store my movies on the time capsule and access wireless to watch on my new ipad?

    TC is not a media player.. it has no smarts whatsoever.
    If you have an app on the ipad to play files.. then the ipad can play files from anywhere.. even the TC.. but the TC contributes nothing. Do not move your itunes library to the TC.. that is asking for trouble.

  • Time Capsule Remote Access [HELP]

    So like the title says I want to have access to my Time Capsule from anywhere.
    I'd like someone to post a [HowTo] Step by Step.
    I have:
    MB Pro with Lion OSX 10.7.4 (Airport Utility 6.1 and 5.6)
    TC with FW 7.6.1 (Bridge Mode)
    T-Home Speedport W 504V configured as a DSL-Modem
    TC is connected to the Speedport.
    I've read many things but they make everythin more complicate.
    I also tried to activate NAT-PMP with a public IP so that I can Share Disk over WAN, but the program tells me that
    DHCP Staraddress and Endaddress are in conflict with my WAN-IP-Address.
    So at the moment I'm using the Bridge Mode.
    Also iCloud "Back to my Mac" tells me NAT-PMP or UPnP isn't activated on my router.
    So please give me some help with this stuff so I can get access from an extern network.
    And if I try to do it on Airport Utility 6.1 it tells me Double NAT.
    Regards
    Khanh Duy

    I don't have a howto step by step sorry.. I refuse to use OS with as bad a Networking as Lion.. and no interest in clouds..
    You can do this without icloud at all. And it is simple if you have a static public IP address.
    Even without static public IP you might do ok with the modem you have.
    So let me suggest 3 possibles..
    1. If you want to continue down the icloud road.. the issue is upnp .. did you turn on upnp in the modem.. if not do so and try it. TC should be bridged.
    Or if you ISP allows pppoe authentication then bridge the modem and use the pppoe client in the TC.. this is a better method as then the TC gets the public IP on its WAN port. You can select to allow disk access from WAN. Although if this is necessary or not from iCloud I have no idea.
    2. With a static public ip, simply port forward AFP to the TC ip address. I will not post the details unless you do have a static public IP because most people don't. TC is in bridge.
    3. Use dyndns client in the modem.. Here again you will have to check if that facility is in the modem.. again the TC is in bridge.. port forward AFP to the IP of the TC. The router has to control this using a fixed IP to the TC.
    In both the case 2 or 3, you access the TC remotely by simply using its IP address or URL. In finder, go, go to server and type in AFP://PublicIPaddress or AFP://TCdyndnsaddress
    If you just google for "Time Capsule remote access" there are hundreds and thousands of posts explaining how to do it.. but if you cannot figure out method 2 or 3.. I am happy to give further details.

  • Can time capsule be accessed remotely

    Can time capsule be accessed remotely? Via macbook pri on another wifi network

    Just google for this one.. there are loads of video on utube etc..
    The answer is yes.. but it depends as all things do..
    BTMM and iCloud is designed for remote access to TC and Mac.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3486
    The TC has to be the main router in the network..
    The remote network must not block the protocols required for connection..

  • I receive a not connected to the internet message several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via cable modem.. When I input my password to enter network preferences, the connection re-establishes.

    I receive a "not connected to the internet message" several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via a cable modem. Software/firmware is up to date on the iMac (OSX 10.6.8)  and Tme Capsule(7.5.2). Browser is Safari 5.1.
    When I input my password at the prompt to enter network preferences, all the lights go green (ie... ethernet, ISP etc.) and the connection re-establishes immediately and states "the connection appears to be working normally".
    It more of a nuisance than anything and seems to have started ocurring over the past couple of months. I also have a windows XP box also connected to the same cable modem that I never have internet connectivity issues with. I've verified all the physical aspects of the connections and can't see any evidence of any actual drops in the modem logs. I suspect it is just an intermittent communication loss between the Imac and the Time Capsule, but I am not very familiar with Mac equipment yet.
    Just wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem and what you did (if anything) to resolve it?
    Thanks.

    The AirPort Express will connect to your existing wireless network if the network is using WPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless security settings.
    So, it can join the network as a client and then provide an Ethernet signal to your Time Capsule.
    Be sure to configure the Time Capsule to operate in Bridge Mode so that it will be operating on the same network.

    Hi shldr2thewheel,
         it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
    Sincerely in need of help once again,
    Kim

    hi iv got a sky router downstairs and a time capsule up stairs how do i set it up so that it just extends the sky wifi and then the hard drive in the time capsule is accessible from all over the house thanks

    Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <--> ports on the back of the Sky router to the WAN (circle of dots icon) port on the back of the Time Capsule. This connection must be maintained at all times.
    Then, using the setup "wizard" on your iMac illustrated below, configure the Time Capsule to create a wireless network that uses the exact same wireless network name and password that the Sky router is using.
    You can get the setup wizard going in several different ways, but the simplest might be to click the WiFi icon at the top of the Mac's screen and then click on Time Capsule under the heading of New AirPort Base Station.
    The wizard will open up and analyze the network, then the suggest the correct setup. The example below shows an older AirPort Express that is about to be setup in the same way. You will see a Time Capsule icon on your screen when you run the setup wizard.

  • TS3972 How can I access the files(movies,music,etc) in my Apple Time Capsule(4th Gen) from my Apple TV(3rd Gen). This is very frustrating Apple has not provided a basic feature, and me buying the Time Capsule and Apple TV is an complete waste of bucks.

    I have an Apple TV (3rd Gen) and Apple Time Capsule (4th Gen). How can I access Movies and Music stored in the Time Capsule from Apple TV. This is very  n't give frustrating that Apple doesn't give their customers with an straight forward access to their customers in between their own products. Iam repenting that buying these products is completely waste of bucks. Appreciate your help...

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The Time Capsule is clearly announced as a router with a hard drive to make backups, not to store anything and share it with your Apple TV.
    To access to movies and music from the Time Capsule, note that the Apple TV can only access to them if they are stored in your iTunes library, so you will have to put your movies and music into iTunes to access to them, and then, put your iTunes library on the Time Capsule in order to access to your data from there

  • Accessing Time Capsule shared drive from Vista

    When running Vista in Bootcamp on my late 2008 Macbook Pro, I can see the shared network drive on the Time Capsule, but when I try to access it it just freezes Windows Explorer and I have to forcibly terminate the explorer process. Is there a trick to get it to work? I'd like to use Norton Ghost to backup Vista on the Time Capsule drive.
    Thanks.

    I have a 1TB TC currently working as my router for a Macbook, Vaio and Dell laptops. I can only access the files from the Macbook. I tried installing Bonjour on the Vaio, but still cannot access the saved files...maybe the install was not good? Any ideas? I tried the online Bonjour download...I do not have the disc.

  • How to access Time Capsule 2013 disk from Windows 7

    I have seen several (older) threads that suggest that you can access the Time Capsule disk from Windows 7 using Windows Explorer and navigating to \\Time-Capsule-Name.  However, I have tried this repeatedly and just cannot get it to work. 
    Could this be a bug or unsupported in the latest 2013 Time Capsule?
    In Airport Utility, under Disks > File Sharing, I have Enable File Sharing checked.  The workgroup is WORKGROUP. 
    The IP address is 192.168.1.4.  I am able to ping it successfully; I just cannot access it through Windows Explorer.
    Am I missing something?  Please help!

    Are you running homegroup on the PC..??
    That should definitely be turned off!!
    Homegroup can mess things up.
    I would try with ipv6 off but that might make no difference at all.. leave it set to local-link if it doesn't do anything.
    There was issues when the Gen4 came out with security. Windows uses too high an encryption level..
    See info here.
    http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/changing-file-encryption-settings-on-a-win dows-7-h.pageCd-storyboard,pageNum-5.html
    Change to 40 or 56 bit encyrption.
    Unfortunately some of the controls you think you are setting on the TC are not really being set at all.. eg I doubt you are actually changing the workgroup.. if possible though you should have disk access set to lowest level .. device password and you should also turn on guest account to read and write.. that usually solved access for me in earlier TC .. I haven't bought an AC for the moment.. because.. well I believe I have done my time on the war front. I bled out already on the bleeding edge.. time for you to do it and I can reap the benefits on the second hardware revision and about the 10th firmware update.
    Other things I would try if the above don't work.
    Factory reset and start over.. you moved the IP of the TC and that is unwise.
    Do not worry about the various settings.. do the factory reset.. in full isolation from the internet. ie TC plugged into the windows computer. Nothing else in either..
    Now try at the default IP of the TC..
    \\10.0.1.1
    Beyond that you need another computer to try or some device. iOS would be fine... in normal situation you would test other protocols, eg ftp but TC offers only SMB and AFP.. there are no AFP clients for windows that I have heard of.. you might have success if you boot the PC from a linux live cd.. it should be able to read AFP even if it cannot write to it. But the SMB is more important. If linux can access with SMB protocol and windows cannot.. the issue is windws OS.
    Or iOS devices have some AFP file browsers available but again just test with SMB.. most file browsers for iOS use SMB.. if other devices can manage SMB protocol to open files on the TC then the finger points very clearly to the PC as the trouble.. on the other hand if nothing can access SMB then the TC is faulty and should be replaced.

  • Time machine can not access time capsule after upgrade from snow leopard to mountain lion

    Two days ago I upgraded my 2009 17" MBP from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. That evening my time capsule/time machine combination worked fine and did an incremental backup of about 12 gigabyte. Yesterday - only one day later - the time machine backup did not work anymore.
    It appears that the system can not find the time capsule - even though it shows the remaining free space on the time capsule (so it did find it after all).
    The message is always the same:
    Time Machine can not complete the backup "Time Capsule"
    The image of the backup volume "/Volumes/Data/Pauls MacBookPro.sparsebundle" is not accessable (Error -1).
    I also can not delete the backup image on the time capsule since it is read-only. And I do not want to format the time caspsule yet since my wife's MBAir is also using the same time casule.
    I tried out all kinds of suggestions (hard and soft resetting both the MBP and the TC, entering the password again, setting the TC up again) all to no avail. No backup is possible anymore.

    Sounds like you got this message earlier:
    If so, see #C13 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
    Offhand, I don't recall anyone not being able to delete one via the Finder (but most were only backing-up one Mac, so just erased the disk).
    You may have to wait for that message to appear again (24 hours later), or you might try holding Alt/Option with the TM icon in the menubar, and select Verify Backups if it will let you.
