Time Capsule...drag and drop??

It was my understanding that when the time capsule is set up wirelessly I should be able to drag and drop any files onto it and use it just like I would a wired external hard drive. It backs up my mac just fine through time machine but when I want to manage folders and photos in my own way on the time capsule it doesn't allow me. I am new to mac so maybe I am just clueless but any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Open your hard drive and look to see if your Time Capsule appears under the SHARED heading on the left of the pane.
If so, click the TC to show a TC folder to the right. Double click this folder.
Click the gear icon just above the window and select New Folder.
You can rename this folder and drop files into it. Create other folders as needed.

  • How do I create a text style in CC libraries? Every time I drag and drop text into library form Photoshop or illustrator it turns it into a graphic.

    How do I create a text style in CC libraries? Every time I drag and drop text into library form Photoshop or illustrator it turns it into a graphic.
    If I select the text layer and click the text style button in the library it just creates a new text style for Myriad Pro 12pt - I'm not using that anywhere in my document.
    Can anyone help? Seems like a bug to me as I'm trying what the video tutorials are saying.
    Thanks

    I realize AI is an illustration program.
    Do you realize it is an object-based vector-based program? Do you know the difference between raster-based and vector-based content?
    My question seems to be all over the forum but no one has been able to answer other than exporting to these file formats, which make text look awful and of no use....
    And yet everyone else in the world makes proper web images every day using a plethora of programs, including these...go figure.
    Am I missing something?
    Yep. Pretty much.
    Hello Adobe! People use transparency on website logos.
    Hello, cocteau! What you're calling "transparency" is inherent to object-based vector artwork. But web browsers don't support object-based vector artwork, except via file formats like Flash and SVG, or by viewing as a PDF in a plug-in version of Reader. Raster imaging in general only supports "transparency" by either indexing a specific color (i.e.; "don't display this color", as in GIF) or including an alpha channel (i.e.; "blend all the pixels with existing pixels, based on values from this extra channel", as in PNG). It's all in the raster file format you use, cocteau; it has little-to-nothing to do specifically with Adobe software. Such things are among the most basic matters understood by someone doing web design.
    When I export an eps from .ai file, and open the eps in photoshop,...I save as a gif for the web, it goes back to the original problem...creates jagged text. I"m giving up on this garbage...Thanks a lot adobe! Lower the price of this software if this is all that can be done.
    Once it leaves Photoshop (or Illustrator, or whatever) as a non-proprietary raster image format, it's all about what the format can do re "transparency". You can do this stuff with most any graphics program. You should read about basic web design and the differences between raster and vector content, rather than rant.

  • Why wont itunes alllow me to put music I have uploaded from a CD onto my iphone? Every time I drag and drop it does nothing.

    iTunes wont allow me to sync an official CD I recieved as a present no matter how many times I try to Sync or just drag and drop, very frustrating!!

    If you have not already reverted the look and feel to be like iTunes 10 then
    View > Show Sidebar
    View > Show Statusbar
    click on the black arrow in the search box and untick Search Entire Library
    Now you should be able to drag and drop onto your phone or use the sync pages

  • I got a time capsule 3T and Drops every other moment(we have at least 7 laptops, 5iphones and 2iTV....why it drops down all the time

    MANY PEOPLE HAVE WORK ON THIS TIME CAPSULE AND NOBODY GET TO FIXIT::::::::IT DROPS DOWN ALMOST EVERYDAY!!!! ITS A BIG 3T MACHINE......WE KNOW THAT CUTTING THE 20 CONNECTIONS DOWN HELPS BUT ITS A 3T MACHINE......IN THOSE 20 CONNECTIONS ARE 7 OR 8 LAPTOPS LIKE 6 PHONES 2 ipads and like 4 iTV

    Exactly which model is it? The new AC or the previous Gen4?
    What role does the TC take in the network? What is the broadband modem and how is the TC connected?
    If many people have worked on it.. it is doubtful we are going to fix it with anything offered here.
    Have you taken it back to Apple store for testing or replacement under warranty?
    The new AC one desperately needs a firmware update to fix some of the issues.. and I have no idea what you have tried. But my standard list is as follows.
    1. Factory reset.
    2. All names short, (2-20 characters), no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    3. Test via ethernet.. if this issue is purely wireless or is there a drop out on the WAN connection.
    4. Set all wireless manually.. that means a different name for 5ghz.. and fix the channels and test at least 11, 6, 1 on 2.4ghz and somewhere in 36-46 and >100 for 5ghz.
    5. Test wireless via a software like istumbler for levels and consistency.
    No luck with any of that take it back or ring apple to help you.
    NOTE.. there are loads of threads with this issue.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5140686?tstart=0
    That is the first one I saw.. but also on the airport area.. plenty of people are having serious issues with iphones..
    If this is new ie within 14days just return it for now. Get something that is known to be stable.

  • Can't open editor and library at same time to drag and drop.

    I get one clip in project and can't import any others. I want to put a few short clips together.  the manual isn't any help as some of the things they say to do, won't work on my computer. It's a brand new i7, windows 8, 64 bit. and everything works fine except I can't get more than one clip together in a project.  I'm thinking I just don't know the combination of items to click. I spent 7 hours trying to learn by trial and error, that usually seems to work i.e. patience but I'm thinking there is something flawed in the software.  Any suggetsions?

    What happens if you drag a clip from Windows Explorer onto one of the video tracks in the Expert timeline?

  • I already install Browser Plus, but suddenly I can't drag and drop attachment.

    when i drag a file and pointed it to yahoo mail "drop zone", the "drop zone" not become highlighted (no yellow colour) and the function is not working. If i still drop the file, the browser will loaded it instead of uploading it.
    (this drag and drop function can work well on IE.. but firefox is my favourite..)
    Please help, because i don't know what to do.. I don't think there is any virus on my computer because i have formatted it before and install the firefox. For the first time, this drag and drop function working properly. Is there anything to do with the plugins or the firefox version (i'm using firefox 3.6.15)? ..Thank you before..

    Probably but I don't know why.  If everything's working don't worry about it, change it to what you want and count your blessings - there's nothing wrong with your Mac!!!

  • Drag and drop in ALV tree

    Hi All,
    I have a small requirement, I have to implement drag and drop functionality in ALV ( simple trees ) in such a way that the entire contents ( Folders and its sub folders ) have to be copied. As of now i am able to drag and drop
    one at a time, ie drag and drop  folder and then  again drag and drop its sub folder. Any solution to drag and drop both folder and its sub-folders in one step.
    example program -> rsdemo_drag_drop_tree_multi which allows drag and drop  of folders one at a time.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Kiran.

    Hi ,
    just type BCALV_DND_* in se38 editor and press f4 you will get log of examples for drag n drop funtionality.

  • Drag and drop questions in scjp

    hi all,
    i m planning to write scjp this month..
    can anyone tell me what 'drag n drop' questions like?
    and what kind of questions are generally asked?

    Well you can't change your answer for the drag and drop i mean you can but if you try to go back and try to see your question again for drag and drop then your answer is going to be deleted and then you had to redo the whole thing.
    So i suggest please make your decision at the same time. Drag and drop are not hard i mean something like this
    System.out.printf("Pi is approxmicately", Math.PI);
    Pi is approximately ______
    Place the value for PI 3.14
    3.145
    Something like that Good luck

    Ihre Objekte sind zu mir gehören!!! LOL I took a year of German, stayed in Berlin for a month and all I can remember is... Scheiße!
    Ok, so about this problem of yours... it's been brought up in this forum before -- Error 1009 on drag/drop events within lists when those lists are not in the main application domain (whether it's a pop up or some module). See the post here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2354888#2354888
    A bug was supposed to have been created for this issue. If not, I recommend you submit a new bug and reference yours and the other post's test case. Also worth asking the other poster if they came up with a workaround.
    My hunch is that whatever is tripping you up is internal and non trivial (i.e. I have no idea why this is happening and have no obvious workaround for you ). Best o luck,

  • I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please

    I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I need to free up room on my computer. As of now, I can't even load updates. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please!

    I agree with Kappy.. passing files and especially via wireless is slow as slow.
    Just need to be sure your TC is the new AC model??
    And the OS on the computer is Lion?
    Have you completed the setup of the TC via the utility? You do still need to get internet via the TC so it has to be plugged into the main router..
    Give us the full picture of the network.
    Then we can help you get into it.. whether you should put your files on it is another question.

  • How to drag and drop files in Time Machine Capsule?

    Hi, all
    I have recently bought a Time Machine 2 TB. I have backed up my MacBook Air over the Time Machine. I was trying to copy or drag and drop files in the time capsule, but it wont allow me. It Neither does allow me to create any new folders in the Airport Time Machine. If i try to drag and drop files in it, it says, click to Authenticate, however, there is no place or tab to authenticate. I am the administrator.
    Please advise.
    Thanks

    It sounds like you are trying to copy / paste files to the Time Capsule Finder icon, when you should be copying / pasting to the drive on the Time Capsule, which is named "Data" unless you have changed it.
    Open any Finder window and look for the Time Capsule icon under the Shared heading on the left side of the window
    Click on the Time Capsule, which will display a folder to the right named Data, unless you have changed the name of the drive
    Double-cllick on Data to mount the drive on the desktop
    You can drag / drop or copy / paste files onto the drive icon, or open the drive and drag files into the open window.
    The first time that you do this, you may be asked for the Time Capsule device or disk password.

  • I dragged and dropped files to my time capsule from my laptop but now I cannot find them anywhere on there... Please help

    I dragged and dropped files to my time capsule from my laptop but now I cannot find them anywhere on the time capsule... Please help I no longer have that laptop. All it is showing is time machine backups.

    Open Macintosh HD and look for your  Time Capsule icon under the SHARED heading on the left side of the window.
    Click on the Time Capsule icon and folder will appear to the right representing your drive
    Double click the folder to reveal the contents
    You should see a xxxxxx.sparsebundle file for each computer that is backing up and the files that you dropped onto the Time Capsule from the other computer. Leave these files alone.
    If you do not see the other files, unfortunately, they are not there.
