Time capsule slow when transferring files over wifi - please help!

Well - the problem started after the insallation of Lion. It takes around 1 min to transferre 8 mb. So if i want to see a film from the TC i need to cable it and thats not realy the point of having a wireless harddisk.
I have turn spotlight off
I have reset the disk - default settings
I have made a clean Lion instal.
I have called apple support, that wanted 40€ to fix the product they made - in a bad way.
Hop some one knows a way to speed up my TC
Thanks

Time Capsule freezes when transferring files

My time capsule freezes when data is transferring from my Macbook Pro during its initial update. I tried to connect it through WiFi or ethernet cable. It just freezes like when 800 Mb - 5 Gb were transferred (I have left it overnight). What can I do?
How about doing it by USB cable?

I have the new iPhone 4s. I'm using cloud. I try to sync my playlists to my phone an it either erases them completely or keeps saying it cannot move all music files over? Please help. Also my purchased ringtones will not sync up as well.

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Time capsule disconnects when accessing files

I set up the time capsule on my comcast business class internet. It also serves as my wifi router as well.I have been having issues when 7 users are connected to this wifi router and then when we try accessing files on it, it disconnects us and we have to reconnect to the wifi and then try to access again.
It has become a huge inconvience lately, and quite honestly I did not update to Maverick becauce I was nervous of the issues that would incur.
When I bought the time capsule, I wish Apple would have helped set this up as we purchased over $15k from them in equipment. I am just really regretting the coplexity of this and the fact that we can not access this time capsule remotely at all.
NEED HELP ASAP!

How is the TC setup and what mode is it working in?
Your profile shows you are using Mavericks.. and we know Mavericks is having issues with accessing files on the TC.
Then this line confuses me.
It has become a huge inconvience lately, and quite honestly I did not update to Maverick becauce I was nervous of the issues that would incur.
So you did update to Mavericks or not?? Do you have a mix of Mountain Lion and Mavericks?
Why are 7 people trying to access files on the TC?
The TC is not a NAS.. it is a target for Time Machine backups. If you are using it as a file store, are you also using it as TM backup?? That is likely to cause some issues.
If you spent that much money with apple did you ring their support and get them to talk you through the issues?
Keep hassling them if they are not helping you.. They have supplied you equipment that does not work.. you have the right to return it.
If we are going to be able to help.. spell this line out a bit more.
I have been having issues when 7 users are connected to this wifi router and then when we try accessing files on it, it disconnects us and we have to reconnect to the wifi and then try to access again.
Does that mean, when only two or three users are working it is fine? What is the tipping point?
How do you reconnect to the wifi?
Is everyone trying to access the same file, ie a company database??

Time capsule crash when copying files from it

Hi, I'm trying to copy files from a time capsule to a windows 7 pc. When I do that the time capsule crashes. I can copy files from the windows 7 pc to the time capsule without problems. Has anybody got a clue? I just bought the time capsule, so it has the latest versions.

What do you see that you interpret as a Time Capsule crash? You can use AirPort Utility to look at the log file of the Time Capsule. Go into "Manual Setup", then invoke Base Station > Logs and Statistics. There might be a message in the log that helps explain the problem.

Why won't my Apple Time Capsule Let Me Transfer files over?

Ok so I'm using Vista and wanting to back up my data but my Apple Time Capsule won't allow me to transfer anything more than 4Gb at a time and Windows keeps displaying an error message saying there isn't enough space when there is clearly 990Gb left!
I have to press "skip" just to get rid of the message or else it keeps coming popping back up. But when I go to view the files the folders are there but not the files and if there is any files in there they are all corrupted and won't play/view properly.
Although I can save files to it directly if downloading something and choosing a location although it does tell me it may not be able to save anything larger than 4Gb although there isn't an option to format it to NTFS??
Please help

When I click on my 'libraries' file (where all my photos are saved) It just says "no items to display"- when there is!
If the reset did not work can you specify this more?
What do you mean with libraries file (Bridge is a browser reflecting the content of your system)
What OS do you use?

Reader 9.1.0 Crashes or slow when opening files over a network

Hello all. I am having a problem with Reader 9.1. I have files that are on another computer that are accessed on other computers on the network. There is a need for up to 21 of these files to be open at one time. As we update the information on them we close them. At random times and intervals, Reader either is very slow to open up the file, around 5min. and other times it just locks up the computer and a restart is required. Is this a limitation of the program to work with files on another system? I do not know much about Reader it's self, but do windows. Any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated. I have included the System Paramaters and Installed Plug-ins reports generated in Reader. I have also tried updating Reader with the lates patch, but that just makes it worse.

Sorry, my email got cut off. I'll post it again...

My Macbook Pro 15" has become painfully slow when transferring files to USB or my Externel HardDrive. Any ideas?

I's unsure when it started but for quite some time copying even 100-200MB files is taken 5-10 minutes. I have tried many different USB's and External HardDrives, but nothing seems to be working, no matter what USB port it is plugged into. I have researched online and have found many people with the same issue, but no one seems to have a fix. If I am in a rush to get to school it's the last thing I want to have to deal with. I am running Lion 10.7.4 on my 15" Macbook Pro.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

Bluetooth mouse cuts out when transferring files over the network

Just as the title says: whenever I copy files to a PC over the network (via SMB I think its called) My bluetooth mighty mouse will start getting very jerky and makes is very difficult to move the cursor on the screen. However, my Bluetooth keyboard is comply fine. Both are using Lithium batteries and where just replaced about a month ago. Also, both are in close range...about 2 feet. And it only happens when coping files.
Any ideas?
-Scott

I don't connect to network volumes that often, but I did again today and noticed that my bluetooth keyboard completely cut out (had the "discounted" HUD come up) and then the keyboard would not reconnect until the file copy was complete. I don't know about the mouse as lately I've been using my Microsoft mouse that hasn't been giving me any troubles. (like really, Microsoft and "no troubles" in the same sentence??? lol)

Time Capsule and iTunes set up not working, please help.

I have moved my itunes library to my time capsule and changed my itunes preferred path to its time capsule location. However when I restart my apple laptop, after having shut it off for the night, and open itunes (time capsule is visible and accessible to the laptop), itunes has reversed the preferred path I set to point to my time capsule to my local laptop hard drive instead. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I have looked in other discussions concerning lost itunes file paths, however I never had this issue with my wired external drive; and I only start iTunes after I am sure that my computer can access the files on my time capsule. Thank you.
My laptop is a Macbook Pro 2.3 Ghz running Mac OS X (10.5.2)

If you're still experiencing "disconnects," even with the earlier firmware, but not experiencing these at all when directly connecting your computer to the modem, there is a good chance that one of the following may still be the problem:
o Bad Ethernet cable between the D-Link & TC.
o The TC is faulty.
o The D-Link is faulty.
o The TC & D-Link are just not compatible with each other.
o The ADSL signal strength, coming from your ISP into the D-Link, may need "tuning."
I'd start with trying a known good Ethernet cable. If that doesn't resolve the problem try contacting your ISP/ADSL-Provider next to see if they can run a ADSL line diagnostic to verify that there is a good signal to the D-Link; While you have them on the line, see if they can provide you with another modem.
Finally, if available to you, try temporarily replacing the current TC with another TC or another wireless router.

Hello,
You're right, you don't want to create your site as images.
What you need to do is learn HTML. Fireworks can produce an HTML
table of sliced images, but that table usually breaks if you try to
replace an image of text with actual text, so it isn't a great way
to go to produce a site.
So...resources! Here's a book I like:
HTML,
XHTML, and CSS, Sixth Edition (Visual Quickstart Guide) by
Elizabeth Castro
It covers everything in small chunks and is light enough to
carry around and read.
Some tutorials:
HTML Code Tutorial
W3Schools
This one has a friendly tone, although it has lots of ads:
Page
Tutor
The CSS Tutorial
Also, check out the site recommendations by Silkrooster here:
A
question about using Fireworks to build a website
Once you know HTML, what you do is use Fireworks to design
your site. Then, you slice and export what needs to be an image and
use Dreamweaver to build your HTML and CSS.

Access time capsule remotely from windows 7 os. Please help!

I have enabled net/bios in the network prefs in windows but to no avail. It works fine from a vista os but I cannot seem to figure it out from windows 7. Will someone please help me. I cannot find it anywhere on the web. I am good at finding answers and this one has me stumped. THANK YOU!!!

The failure of the airport utility to find the TC suggests something more fundamental is wrong.
1. Use ethernet. Plug the laptop directly into the TC. Make sure you have internet connection and wireless is off.
2. In windows explorer type directly into the address bar the TC name or IP address.
\\TCname or \\TCIPaddress
If both of them fail and you still have internet access then the issue is firewall.
3. Test again with airport utility.
4. Ensure that the PC is set to home location, not work or public. Turn off all internet security, not just the firewall you can see.. as there can be another you cannot see.
5. If your laptop is setup for windows domain controller, then explain to your IT department you want to connect to peer to peer resources at home. It maybe blocked somehow.

Time Capsule Slow WLAN to internal disk with internet data transfers

All,
I've been experiencing slow responses from my Time Capsule since I got it. It is one of the newer models with dual band and I have a Macbook Pro and a Macbook connecting to the 802.11n network.
I use the internal disk of the Time Capsule as a NAS and I don't use it for Time Machine backups. It houses software, pictures and music files.
When I'm downloading files from the internet via Safari, or via Transmission (torrents) the wifi throughput of the WLAN slows down from about 5 megabytes per second to just a couple of hundred kilobytes per second.
For my tests I used a 2.2Gb DMG file (a Garageband Jampack) which was housed on the Time Capsule disk.
With Transmission running and downloading two torrents and seeding two torrents (capped upload of 2 kilobytes per second), the transfer of the file from the Time Capsule was 4 hours. I let it run a few hours just to determine that the ETA in Finder was fairly accurate.
With Transmission stopped, the transfer of the same file took 9 minutes.
With Transmission stopped but with Safari downloading a large file (400mb), the local Time Capsule file download to my Mac was again looking at around 4 hours.
It also impacts file uploads to the Time Capsule disk but no where near as badly as with downloads. According to activity monitor, throughput from the Time Capsule disk to my Mac over Wifi is around 200 kilobytes per seconds, writing to the Time Capsule was around 900 kilobytes per second.
Both upload and download speed increases dramatically when no internet based file transfers are taking place.
Now the odd thing. I have a TVIX 6500a media player attached to the Time Capsule via gigabit ethernet. In all the tests I've performed (using the same DMG file) the data transfer rate, both reading and writing to the TVIX has always been solid at nearly 5 megabytes per second.
It is almost like the Time Capsule prefers internet originated traffic over WLAN traffic to its own internal disk, and really throttles this traffic. And it lets traffic originating from other devices on the network through on all cylinders.
I know technically a Time Capsule is designed for Time Machine however I can't see how it would be a viable solution given the bad data rates when downloads are taking place.
Is there any way to get under the hood of a Time Capsule to make some adjustments? I wonder if anyone else has had any experience with this, and what might happen if I plug in a USB disk and use that instead. It is starting to look like I might have to get a decent NAS to connect to the Time Capsule but then it is just a larger heavier Airport Extreme.
Thanks in advance.

Mikecad1 -
I dont have any assistance to offer, but have experienced similar problems.
When trying to offload all my music from an external drive to a Time Capsule, it was estimating WEEKS to do it. Even with the HD connected right to the Time Capsule. It's like the WLAN wanted all traffic to go out then come back in before being written.
My solution in that case was to disconnect my laptop from the WLAN, with the drive hooked up to it via USB and then Cat5 to the Time Capsule and do a direct transfer like that. 2 hours instead of weeks.

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.
