Time capsule set up and bootcamp

Dear All,
I am having problem with my time capsule setting up. I have followed all the instructions, and have hopefully installed it correctly. The green light is on. Last thing to do is to turn it "on" by slidding the bar to on. Unfortunately, at this point, I get the message: You haven’t selected a location for Time Machine backups., a list of possible locations appears and the only option available for back up is Bootcamp, which obviously is not the right location, in particular as bootcamp apparently would need to be formatted....
Why is the time capsule not available. Could bootcamp be in conflict with time capsule? How can I add the time capsule to this list of available places?
Any help would be very welcomed.
My Apple shop already changed my time capsule for a second one, and with this second time capsule I am having the same problem. Nobody in Apple shop can help.... To be honest, it used to work until Apple "expert" installed bootcamp and installed window on the mac. Is it possible that when installing bootcamp, something changed for the worth?
Many thanks in advance,
Yannick

Please try to distinguish between Time Capsule, an Apple Wi-Fi base station with an integrated disk, and Time Machine, backup software that's been included with OS X since version 10.5. You seem to be muddling them together.

Boot Camp has nothing to do with the problem. I'm not sure this is necessary or useful, but I'd try using AirPort Utility (manual setup, Disks panel, File Sharing tab) to "Enable file sharing", then select a security method and update the Time Capsule. Then mount the Time Capsule disk (look for your Time Capsule in a Finder sidebar or use the Finder menu option Go -> Network) and see if you can now select that disk in the Time Machine setup panel.

  • Time Capsule set up and wifi network OK but MacBook doesn't see capsule as airport device.  Do I need to do a hard reset and start again?

    I recently bought a Time Capsule and sucessfully set it up in accordance with the instruction book.  The home network and guest network seem to work fine but my MacBook cannot find the Time Capsule wirelessley.
    Initially I set up the time capsule connected to the MacBook with an ethernet cable.  The Time Machine got 30GB way through a 60GB initial back up and then stopped for no obvious reason.  Since then the capsule has not been visible to the MacBook.  I have tried to reconfigure through Airport Utility but even after reperated rescans the capsule remains invisible.
    Any help would be extremely welcome.

    1. i would restore the express to factory defaut by holding the reset button on the unit with a paperclip while you are powering it on
    2. if it restored, you should be able to see it in your wifi icon at top of screen as "airport express"
    or you can see it in airport utility
    3. then if you want to connect it wirelessly to your time capsule, you would choose "extend network" and put in relevant security and password....this would make the express a wireless access point, fed by your time capsule(main router)
    if you chose to do it wired which is a better way if you have access to ethernet port at wall, you would choose "create a wireless network" and then under the "network" tab you would choose "Bridge Mode".....this would make the express a wired access point, fed by your time capsule(main router)

  • Time Capsule setting up and not showing up on utility

    Hi,
    I'm just trying to set up a time capsule with two laptops. I've already got a wireless network and so wanted to add it on as a backup. The first time I plugged it in, my laptop (macbook pro) found it immediately on opening Airport utility and I went through the setup process. Then it said that it was having problems connecting to the network and to start again? So I went back, and it's not finding it, asking to rescan constantly. I've tried installing the software on another laptop (macbook) and it's doing the same, not showing up. I've tried restarting the computer, the time capsule, the router, tried doing the re-start to factory settings thing with the bit on the back... and it still won't show up. The capsule is connected by ethernet cable to the router. I'm still getting wireless from the router.
    Thanks, J

    What has happened likely is that I think the default configuration of the TC is to set itself up as a router. So it's done that and it's now running its own wireless network that is different from the one you normally use. If you look, you'll probably see both of them. In order to modify the TC settings you need to be on the same LAN subnet. What I would do is hook up the TC and a laptop just by themselves. Connect in to it that way. Configure it to put it in "Bridge Mode." Turn off the wireless unless you want to use it as another access point. Then give it an IP address that is an unused address on your local subnet (ie: 192.168.1.x or similar). You can find what your local subnet is by looking at your current wireless router and seeing what LAN address subnet it uses. Then once the TC is connected, hook it back up to your network and you should be good to go.

    A PC can have more issues connecting than a Mac.
    But it really should not matter.. so just try it in situ.. press and hold the reset.. once it starts up, it will return to default IP, 10.0.1.1 the PC should then be able to find it via the airport utility.
    If not drag it over to the Mac and plug in there by ethernet.. or since it is a laptop, really should not be that difficult to drag the Laptop and plug it into the TC.
    Important thing is to get access to the TC.
    The Mac if it is running lion, then you MUST download and install 5.6 airport utility to do anything useful.

  • How to setup apple time capsule with FIOSinternet and VZ router?)

    Hello,
    I have Apple time capsule and the VZ Router MI424WR. I current set up:
    1. VZ router - wireless off, the rest is standard
    2. Time capsule: Wireless on in Bridge mode
    Result: Internet works but the wireless network is very in-stable. Airtunes is nearly not usable.
    I searched in the Internet and there was several comments that is is not a good combination. Therefore it is recommended to convert the VZ router in a modem mode and use only the Time capsule as the router. I tried this several times I do not get it to work. I followed this procedure (http://data.agaric.com/node/2160) but then I need the PPPoE Account number and password. But there do I get this? The Verizon support was not really helpful.
    Please, is there a good and complete description to solve that issue?
    Thanks in advance
    Moebius

    Go back to your first setup ...
    Verizon router with wireless turned off
    Apple Time Casule with wireless turned on
    Method 1:
    With the Time Capsule in "Bridge Mode", if I remember correctly, you should connect the WAN port to one of the open ports on the Verizon router (I believe bridge mode also turns off the DHCP server on the Time Capsule, if not, find that and turn if off as well).   Change the addressing mode for the Time Capsule to "static" and assign it an address on the LAN which is not in use (choose something you know is out of the way but on the LAN -- I suggest 192.168.1.180 to start -- you can change it once you get everything working).
    If it doesn't work this way for you, move the cable from the WAN port on the Time Capsule to Port 1 and try again.
    Method 2:
    This results in a router behind a router setup, but unless you have devices connected directly to the Verizon router, it shouldn't be a problem.  
    With the Time Capsule disconnected from the Verizon router, turn on "Connection Sharing" (not bridge mode) and make sure DHCP is enabled on the Time Capsule.  You need to change the address range being used by the Time Capsule (which I think defaults to 192.168.1.x to another network -- I suggest, 192.168.2.x with a netmask of 255.255.255.0 and give the router an address of 192.168.2.1 on the LAN side.  Now, connection the WAN port to one of the Verizon router LAN ports.  If you had anything connected to the Verizon LAN ports, move those over to the LAN ports on the Time Capsule and reboot them.
    Method 3:
    This is the least desirable of the scenarios because it relies on Verizon's crappy radio in their router (the Time Capsule has a much better radio and support 802.11n as well as b and g) whereas Verizon's only support b/g.    Go back to the configuration for Method 1, but also turn OFF wireless on the Time Capsule and turn on wireless on the Verizon router.   Try both bridge scenarios described -- using the WAN port first and if that didn't work, then moving the connection to port 1.
    There is no scenario where you can place the Verizon router behind the Time Capsule -- since I believe Verizon is using all MoCA connections for the WAN side of their connection (you'd have to get Verizon to convert you to ethernet WAN and then they would not support you most likely for any STB issues with your FiOS if the Time Capsule was between the ONT and their router ... so don't even bother wasting time there ... more headaches than it would be worth.
    If you're still not sure exactly what each configuration screen on the time capsule should say, post some screen snaps (or the configuration settings/choices which you are unsure about and someone will likely know the answer here).

  • Dual Band Network: Time Capsule (N only) and Linksys (B/G) Works *Long*

    Ok, so this was more tedious than I thought it would be, but things actually seem to be working at this point.
    Goal: Create a Dual Band network with Time Capsule (N only) and a Linksys WRTSL54GS (B/G)
    Time Capsule: 1000BaseT wired, and 802.11N 5Ghz only wireless
    Linksys: 100BaseT wired, and 802.11G 2.4Ghz wireless
    Airport Utility 5.3.1
    Time Capsule v. 7.3
    I set Time Capsule up first, following the step by step directions for "Create a wireless network"
    802.11N only, 5Ghz
    WPA2 Personal
    DHCP 192.168.1.1 (kinda important)
    This worked fine-tested on a C2D iMac, both thru ethernet and wirelessly thru N. Time Machine backed up fine.
    Now the tricky part, configuring the Linksys.( I just want to mention I had to reset this thing completely about 10 times to get it to work, using a miniscrewdriver)
    Starting with a freshly reset Linksys, I connected from my MacBook ethernet port to one of the Linksys ethernet ports (Not the WAN)
    I disabled Airport
    I logged in to 192.168.1.1 using blank for login, admin for password (default for Linksys)
    I did the following:
    1) Confirmed Internet Connection Type was "Automatic Configuration-DHCP"
    2) Changed Network Setup to "DHCP Server-DISABLED"
    3) Turned off the Firewall settings in Security (not sure if this is necessary)
    4) Changed the Operating Mode from "GATEWAY" to "ROUTER"
    5)Changed the SSID to "LinksysG_ONLY" or something like that
    After each one of these steps, I had to save the configuration, thru the Linksys browser interface-which blows.
    6) Finally, I changed the Local IP Address of the Linksys from 192.168.1.1 to 10.0.1.251 (thanks to Henry B. for that)
    7) And....I no longer had access to the Linksys at all! This stumped me for a while, until...
    8) I checked my Ethernet settings (in System Preferences/Network): 192.168.1.1 was set as default router address. But my Router (at least for configuration purposes) was now 10.0.1.251, so it could no longer find it.
    9) So I added a new Ethernet port (using the "+" sign), called it Ethernet-Linksys. Set it to Manual. Put in an IP of 10.0.1.250, and a Router IP of 10.0.1.251.
    10) I got access to the Linksys setup page again! (Note: I'm sure there is an easier way to do this, but this is how I got mine to work )
    11) I set up WPA security again, set it to an unused channel (2 in my case), mixed b/g network.
    12) Finally, I moved the ethernet cable from my MacBook directly to one of the ethernet ports on the Time Capsule. I did NOT hook up the other end to the WAN on the Linksys (which for some reason I had done 100 times before) I left it in one of the 4 ethernet ports on the Linksys. Repeat, the WAN (ethernet) port remains empty.
    13) I then turned Airport back on the MacBook, connected to "LinksysG_ONLY", and...I was online. And everything seems to work.

    Hi kjk et al,
    I've been searching the boards for something like what you have described in such nice detail. Before Time Capsule, I used a Netgear g router connected to the cable modem and an older Apple base station connected to the Netgear as a bridge. I removed the Netgear and set up my Time Capsule as the primary. The newer computers in my network can access the Time Capsule, but the old Dell with a 802.11g wireless card cannot. I don't remember seeing where I could access TC to change a setting of "N only" or b/g, but I am guessing that it is running N.
    I tried to follow the steps you used for Linksys. The pre-step 1 thing, resetting it "10 times to get it to work" - how do you know when it is really reset? With Netgear plugged into electricity, I stuck a paper clip into the hole labeled on the diagram as "restore factory settings" and watched the color of the IO icon change from green to amber to green. I did it again for good measure.
    I plugged ethernet from PowerBook G4 into Netgear not-WAN ethernet ports (like your MacBook to Linksys). I disabled Airport. Using Safari, I logged into 192.168.0.1 and got to the Netgear SmartWizard configuration assistant. It says, "No Internet Connection Detected. Please check the connections to the Internet WAN port and cable/DSL modem" - so I looked at your instructions but see no mention of connecting the router to the modem.
    Trying to follow your numbered steps...
    1. In SysPrefs: Network, Location showed Automatic, Configure showed Using DHCP.
    2. I don't see an option in Network to "DHCP Server-DISABLED", but I can choose Configure: OFF. I clicked Apply but browser still gives same message.
    I don't know how to continue the steps.

  • Mackeeper has detected a virus in the time capsule back up - it is not possible to dele - it ite the file. Do I find time capsule in finder and delete the whole computer back up, then crate a fresh back up? Is that the only solution please?

    mackeeper has detected a virus in the time capsule backup, it is not possible to delete the infected file. Do I mount time capsule in finder and then consign to junk the whole computer backup then create a fresh backup? Is that the only solution please.

    Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper. Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components. Never install such junk on a Mac.
    If you actually used MacKeeper to alter your system, e.g. "remove excess binaries" or such, you will need to reinstall OS X as well as all your additional software. Uninstalling MacKeeper is insufficient to reverse the corruption it is capable of - once again, that is if you used it.
    If you merely installed MacKeeper but did not use it to perform any particular action, the following instructions will suffice.
    If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
    Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
    Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
    Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
    You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
    You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
    Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
    After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.
    May I suggest that you review the following setting in System Preferences?
    Although you may easily override that setting, it will serve to protect you from inadvertently installing garbage. The overwhelming majority of Macs I come across have the MacKeeper installer file already present in their Downloads folder, often multiple copies of it. The downloaded file itself can do nothing until it is opened and installed, and the above setting (known as Gatekeeper - not to be confused with MacKeeper) will prevent that from occurring.

  • Initial Time Capsule Set Up

    I got my Time Capsule with my MacBook 2.5 years ago, but I haven't gotten around to setting it up until now. Unfortunately, I lost the directions (as one would expect when 2.5 years have passed) and have only the Time Capsule, Installation CD, and Power Cord. I've tried just plugging the Time Capsule into the socket, but my MacBook refuses to recognize it. When I open the Time Machine settings, it asks me to set up my Time Machine, but I don't know how. It's incredibly frustrating, because nowhere can I find HOW to set it up, and I want to back up my computer in case it crashes like my friend's just did. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated I'm totally lost!
    Oh, and I also have no idea what kind of internet I'm on. I'm at a boarding school, so it's just there, but no one (except the IT guys) knows the type. I do have access to wireless and ethernet though.

  • Time Capsule with Extreme and 3 Express

    Hi, new to this. I just bought a Time Capsule, set it up to my router and ethernet to my iMac (works fine). Time Capsule to router with a manual configuration (fixed IP from ISP). I wanted to:
    1- Get my old Extreme to connect wirelessly to my Network at a remote room. Then connect two more iMac's via ethernet to my Extreme.
    2- Use my extremes to distribute my network through the house.
    I've tried all possible combinations but keep failing at it. I don't know fi I should create a WDS, extend my network, share IP or distribute IP.
    Can somebody please help me?

    Hello coronelcb. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Since you will have a mix of 802.11n and 802.11g AirPort, you will not be able to extend the Time Capsule's (TC) "n" network wirelessly with the 802.11g AirPorts, but you could configure them in a WDS. Note; however, that for each base station in the WDS, the overall bandwidth of the wireless network will be halved ... so, with a total of 4 base stations, at best, you will get 54 Mbps/2x2x2 = 6.75 Mbps. Your actual throughput will be even less.
    As as option, you could create a "Dual Band" network between one of the 802.11g AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBS), and then create a WDS between that AEBS and the other two. In a "Dual Band" network, the TC will provide a "n" network, and the AEBS will provide a separate "g" one. The AEBS would connect to the TC via Ethernet and configured as a bridge to allow the TC to continue to provide both NAT & DHCP services for the entire network.

  • Can't find European land in Time Capsule setting

    I have purchased TM from USA and can't find European land in Time Capsule setting.

    Apple sells products that have been "regionalized" for different parts of the world.  North America, South America, Europe, Southeast Asia, etc, for example.
    It is not possible to change a Time Capsule from one region to another. The reason for this is that different regions have different wireless standards and regulations. See this link for all the details:
    List of WLAN channels - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    A Time Capsule purchased in the USA will operate from 100-240 Volts and 50/60 Hz automatically, so power wise, it will work just about anywhere in the world if you have the right kind of AC wall socket adapter. (A power transformer or converter is not needed).
    But, you will have to be careful about using higher 5 GHz wireless channels on the USA Time Capsule while in Europe, since the use of higher 5 GHz channels is not legal in most European countries at this time.  In other words, keep the 5 GHz channel on the USA Time Capsule at Channel 36, 40, 44 or 48.

  • Setup a wired network  between Time Capsule, Airport Extreme and Express

    I currently have a Time Capsule, Airport Extreme N and an Airport Express N. They are currently connected wirelessly via the "extend network" mode. So I do have wireless connection throughout my home but I notice that it is slow especially compared to gigabit Ethernet. I now like to do the same but then connect the three devices over Ethernet as I have on each floor also Ethernet connections available that are connected via a wired switch.
    How can I configure the three devices in such a way that they use the gigabit Ethernet wired connections as their "backbone" and then give wireless access to each floor as if it is one wireless network, and where I can connect other wired gigabit devices via the time capsule and airport extreme Ethernet ports?
    I have one Internet connection that comes via Ethernet from my cable modem. This is now connected to my time capsule who creates the internal network and assigns internal IP addresses.
    Can anybody advise how to configure each device? And to which ethernet port I should Airport Extreme?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the discussion area, Alexander!
    +How can I configure the three devices in such a way that they use the gigabit Ethernet wired connections as their "backbone" and then give wireless access to each floor as if it is one wireless network, and where I can connect other wired gigabit devices via the time capsule and airport extreme Ethernet ports?+
    You will be setting up what is known as a "roaming" network using the etherent backbone for your network. This will produce the best possible bandwidth on your network for both ethernet and wireless connections.
    _On the Time Capsule_
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Remove the check mark next to "Allow this network to be extended" (This is only checked if you are extending your network using wireless only and you will be using ethernet to connect your devices, not wireless).
    Update to save changes and the Time Capsule configuration is complete.
    _On the AirPort Extreme_
    Connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule to your ethernet switch. Then connect another ethernet connection from the switch to the WAN (circle icon) port on the AirPort Extreme.
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Wireless Mode = Create a wireless network (Not extend as you might think. Extend is only used if the Time Capsule and AirPort Express are connecting using wireless only)
    Wireless Network Name = Exact same name as your AirPort Extreme wireless network
    Radio Mode = Same setting as your AirPort Extreme
    Channel = Automatic
    Wireless Security = Exact same setting as your AirPort Extreme wireless network
    Wireless Password = Same password as your AirPort Extreme wireless
    Confirm Password
    Click the Internet icon
    Connect Using = Ethernet
    Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
    Update to save changes and configuration is complete
    _On the AirPort Express_
    You can connect an ethernet cable from the switch..or..from one of the LAN <-> ports on either the Time Capsule or AirPort Extreme, whichever is easier.
    Set it up exactly the same as the AirPort Extreme above and update to save changes.
    Power off the Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express for a few moments. Then power up the Time Capsule first and let it run a moment, then power up the AirPort Extreme and then the AirPort Express.
    If you have a laptop running Leopard or Snow Leopard, you can move your computer around and check to see which device it is connecting to for wireless. Hold down the option key while you click on the fan shaped AirPort icon at the top of the screen and look for the BSSID. That is the AirPort ID of the device to which you are connected at the time.
    To get the AirPort ID of each of your Apple routers, open AirPort Utility and click on a device on the left. On the right, you'll see the AirPort ID for that device.
    For ethernet connections, you can plug into an available port on the switch, the Time Capsule, or the AirPort Extreme.
    You should be all set. Please post back on your progress.

  • Extending my network. Time Capsule-Air Express and Extreme.

    So currently my network is a time capsule in my basement and an airport express upstairs behind a tv in my living room. I have an extreme that I'd like to use to boost my signal in the back yard where I use the remote app on my iphone to control itunes. They are all 802.11n(?). I would like to place the extreme close to a basement window that has clear sight to the lower back yard area.
    What is the easiest way to go about setting this up?
    THX

    Welcome to the discussions!
    +What is the easiest way to go about setting this up?+
    Assuming that your AirPort Extreme is the 802.11n version, (it has a square shape), here is how to setup the "extend" configuration with the Time Capsule. The AirPort Extreme must be positioned where it can receive a good signal from the Time Capsule.
    I was not clear on whether you already had the AirPort Express setup to extend (you must have an 802.11n version of the Express to allow this), or whether you have it configured to "join" your wireless network for use with AirTunes.
    _On the Time Capsule_
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup

    Update to save any changes
    The Time Capsule will restart and you should see a green light in 15-20 seconds
    _On the AirPort Extreme_
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the icons
    Wireless Mode = Extend a wireless network (If you do not see this choice, hold down the option key on your computer as you click on the selection box)
    Wireless Network Name = Exact name of your Time Capsule wireless network. (This should appear as a choice in the setup)
    Enter a check mark next to Allow wireless clients
    Wireless Security = Exact same setting as your Time Capsule wireless network

    many thanks

    Since neither your iPhone nor your Wii support 802.11n, neither device will see a significant improvement in range with use of the Time Capsule compared to your existing Linksys WRT54G. The significantly increased range you can get with the Time Capsule is really only achieved when an n-capable wireless client connects to it.
    To keep things simple, just configure your Time Capsule for "bridge mode" using the Airport Utility (click Manual Setup, Internet button, Connection sharing drop down box). Then cable one of the Time Capsule ethernet ports to a spare port on your Linksys router. Eventually, when you get n-capable wireless hardware, you can set them up to connect via the Time Capsule. All your b/g wireless clients can connect via the Linksys router. Irrespective of which device they connect to, all of them will be able to access the Time Capsule hard drive and attached printer.
