Time capsule stopped working after installing software update, no lights and reset did nothing.  What do I do?

I can't get my time capsule to turn on after a software update.  Reset button does nothing and it is pluged in to a live outlet. Is my time capsule dead?

Welcome to Apple Discussions, Freepisces
I have all the latest updates on my Macs, and I have no problem at all.
If you applied the latest (7.4.1) QT update, your problem may be due to the fact that the System Requirements for QuickTime 7.4.1 for Tiger include Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later, and you show that you are using Mac OS X (10.4.3). You can check which QT version you have installed using the QuickTime Player > About QuickTime Player menu command.
If your QT version is an older one that is compatible with your Mac OS, and if you have not done so since you applied the QT update, repairing permissions may help you.
If the problem is somehow related to your iSight rather than to your QT software, Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight may help you identify and fix your problem.
Unless you have a compelling reason for not doing so, you should consider updating to the latest version of Tiger (10.4.11). To find out what improvements you are missing by staying with 10.4.3, see some of the "About the Mac OS X 10.4.xx Update" documents for updates later than 10.4.3. A couple of examples are:
• About the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Update (combo) and
• About the Mac OS X 10.4.11 Update
If you are interested, other "About..." documents are linked in this search list.
Because System Requirements for the latest combo applicable to your MacBook, Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update (Intel), are for Mac OS X 10.4.4 or later, you will need at least two steps to upgrade from your Mac OS X (10.4.3), so pay careful attention to the System Requirements of any updates you plan to apply.

  • Time Capsule not working after last software update

    I bought my time capsule 3 weeks ago. Set up and worked like a charm (I use airport express for my wireless network). After I downloaded the latest software updates a week or so ago, I got a message that my computer could no longer recognize my time capsule. Since then the time capsule light only flashes amber and wont appear in airport utility.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I was having problems with the 7.3.1 firmware as well. For me, in manifest as though the internal disk had went bad--a blinky amber light and a "Disk needs repair" error. Rolling back the firmware solved it for me.
    To do this:
    --Open AirPort Utility.
    --Click on your TC.
    --Click on the "Manual Setup" button.
    --When the configuration summary pops up, click on the word "Version".
    --From the "Upload" drop-down list that is on the new pane that pops up, select "7.3", and click "Ok".
    --Once it reboots, it'll be at 7.3.
    Hope this helps. I'll be waiting a few weeks after 7.3.2 comes out to upgrade. I'm not real impressed with 7.3.1. As far as I can tell, it broke more than it fixed.

  • USB tethering stopped working after iMac software update.

    Yesterday my Internet was slooooow so I followed a tip to repair disc permissions in disc utility, at the same time I was downloading and installing software update for the iMac. I've always tethered with a USB cord (Bluetooth has NEVER worked with the Mac and phone, but does with the iPad).  All the solutions I find one here for this issue give instructions I don't understand (where/how to do them exactly, like iPhone config utility...where?!), and how I'm supposed to download iTunes again on a mac that has no Internet because i can't tether...physically impossible. Very frustrated.  I don't understand why software updates are issued that cause problems like this, but no immediate solutions updates are issued after. One top of that, how are we supposed to fix issues when we can't tether and dont have separate Internet (I can't update my iPhone software without a special trip to a wifi hotspot....I live in Saudi Arabia...it's not easy to do that).
    Sorry, so many questions. Frustrated.  I there a SIMPLE solution out there?!

  • HP Power Advisor has stopped working after installing latest updates

    I have been using HP Power Advisor successfully on my Lenovo X230 running Windows 7.  After installing the latest Power Advisor updates it no longer works.  I can select a voltage from the dropdown on the Input Voltage screen but nothing happens when I click on the Go button, as if it is disabled.  I've tried re-installing the download package which works fine but it stops working again as soon as I install the latest updates.  Any ideas how to solve this?

    Well on the website for HP power Advisor, it specifically says, 
    "Accurately estimate power consumption of your HP server and storage products"
    There could be many different things interrupting your use of the program, but I'm going to say that maybe your largest problem with using the HP software designed for HP machines is your Lenovo.
    Sorry,
    Good Luck!
    Did I help you? Please give me a Thumbs up to help let others know!

  • TIme Capsule stopped working after 10.10.3

    Now, after upgrading to 10.10.3 in a fruitless belief that it would speed up things, I can no longer do a backup with Time Capsule. I have followed all the hints left about deleting old time capsule config files but to no avail. Tried to run disk utility on it but the drive does not show up under disk utility. The backup runs for a period of time then fails.

    Ok thanks. Here is the appropriate part of the log file:

  • Ethernet has stopped working after installing "Security Update 2010-003"

    I installed the update recently and have been unable to connect to the internet. The network still gives me an ip, but the internet and server button remain "orange". The wifi still works.
    Has this happened with anyone else? I am curious as to how I can either uninstall the update or make the ethernet work again..
    Much thanks for any recommendations you may have.

    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    I'm not having that problem after installing the security update.
    If you open the Network panel of System Preferences and select the Ethernet connection item, is it set to "Configure" "Using DHCP"? Do you see reasonable values for "IP Address", "Subnet Mask", "Router", and DNS Server"?

  • Administrator password stopped working after last software update

    Since last automatic software update (I know have Mac OS X 10.7.5 in my MacBook Pro), when prompted for the administrator password with new software installation or to unlock the "lock" in the system preferences, the following happens: the password is accepted as valid (no error message appears, and the password window dissapears), but nothing happens:
    - For new software installation, the "Install" button appears again, and upon pressing it, I get prompted again for administrator password, and the process gets looped into these 2 steps.
    - For unlocking the system preferences, the password window gets closed but the preferences are still locked.
    It seems that my password is valid, because if I purposedly enter a wrong password it lets me know it is not correct, but it just does not unlock anything or just not get accepted as before!
    Now I also see in the tool bar at the top right of the screen my name (I am the administrator and only user, I never created any alternative account), this was not there before.
    Can anyone help me to solve this problem, please?
    Thanks!!
    Monica

    I guess I misunderstood your original post. You are logged in, but you can't authenticate as an admin.
    Back up all data.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know that account password, the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but if the password is different from the old one, you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

  • My Time Capsule stopped working suddenly. The led won't lit up even if I do a hard reset.

    Suddenly I noticed that my Time Capsule stopped working. The led doesn't light up any more and there's no noticeable activity in it.
    Is it possible to recover my backups?

    Dead TC power supply syndrome is standard on all Gen1 and Gen2 TC.
    It has plenty of info on the web.
    https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem s/apple-time-capsule-repair
    As far as HD is concerned it will mostly be ok. Either fix or remove the TC hard drive and use in USB box, as mentioned.
    If it is Gen3 there is a different problem.
    Tell us the actual model number from the rubber base.

    MB used as email and surfing tool when on vacation. Worked fine for months. Installed the latest security patch (update) and WiFi quit working. Two days later (still on vacation) WiFi started working again and worked fine for the next 2 days.
    Came home and formatted and reinstalled 10.8.5 and all was fine again. We are selling the MacBook and setup new user, everything worked fine.
    The update came up again so I decided to install it and WiFi instantly stopped working after the restart.
    Does anybody have any idea what is happening.
    Thanks

    Not really, although WiFi has been a longstanding problem for lots of people. I fix for some breaks others.
    However, if you are trying to sell it, you need to revert it back to the OS that shipped with it. You cannot sell your copy of Mountain Lion with the Mac. It is only licensed to you.
    You also need to include the system disks that came with the Mac. If it came with Leopard (10.5), and you have a Snow Leopard (10.6) disk, you can install that if you provide that disk also.

  • My Ipod touch email stopped working after installing Update

    my Ipod touch email stopped working after installing the latest firmware update from Apple what should I do?

    Hi, jewlssch. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If the Mail application will not launch, I would recommend processing any available updates on your Mac Pro and test launching Mail.  If the issue persists, process a reinstall of Mavericks.
    Reinstall OS X

  • Coldfusion 64 bit windows installer stops working after recent microsoft update

    Coldfusion 64 bit windows installation stops working after recent microsoft updates and how I worked around it.
    My question is at the end.
    Trying to deploy coldfusion 9 enterprise 64 bit trial  version onto a Windows 2003 64 bit datacenter OS with all OS updates from MS (as of 4-7-2011).
    Steps taken (remember, this is all 64 bit):
    1. Installed the base OS which was slipstreamed with SP2.
    2. Checked w/ microsoft and installed 63 OS updates.
    3. Launch the CF9 trial exe.
    4. As soon as the first screen finishes (the one that looks like  it is extracting files) then the second screen pops up (the one that  simply says CF Adobe Coldfusion 9) and the progress bar quickly moves  95% to the right and the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.
    5. After a moment of incredulous silence (and retrying/rebooting,  etc), I started to google it. I found nothing. However, I did find a  post (thanks dspent!) that was helpful in that it told how he was able  to get at a log file of sorts, by pre-extracting the  coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file and launching the adobe_cf.exe by hand.  (Dspent's install snafu was different than mine, but his post was very  valuable and got me started in the right direction.)
    6. Got a copy of rarunzipper and extracted the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file.
    7. From the windows directory created by step 6, I launched adobe_cf.exe.
    8. Same thing (the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.).
    9. I examine the hs_err_pidxxxx.log file (where the xxxx is a number).
    10. I see inside that file an ominous message: "A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime" then "Problematic frame ntdll.dll" and then "The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code".
    11. OK, so now I am thinking ntdll.dll !! Native code !! It is like Java is telling me that for some reason it can't dance with the OS.
    12. On a hunch, I decided to test a CF install again on a server with just the base install of W3K3 64 SP2 (ie: skipping step 2 above this time).
    13. Bingo! That install works.
    14. Therefore, one of the 63 patches I had downloaded from MS had triggered a problem with the CF installer.
    15. Back on the first server (the one with the MS security  patches installed and the one that CF won't install on). In the CF file  adobe_cf.lax (one of the files extracted in step 6) there is a line that  mentions where the install gets it's java. Find that file, and check java version installer is using. It is using 1.6.0_14-b08.
    16. Off to the Java website, and there is a newer version of java (1.6.0_24-b07). Downloaded and installed it.
    17. Modify a line in adobe_cf.lax :
       before
         lax.nl.current.vm=resource\\jre\\bin\\java.exe
       after
         lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\program files\\java\\jre6\\bin\\java.exe
    (that assumes that you let step 16 install to the default location)
    Save the file.
    18. Run the install ... ** IT WORKS ** !
    Obviously, the built in java provided with the CF installer is  no longer compatible with some change introduced by some recent MS  update on the W2K3 64b SP2 platform.
    And now the interesting part. Although I forced the installer to used the new java, it did not incorporate it into the cf build (ie: in jvm.config, you still see c:/coldfusion9/runtime/jre AND the  version of java.exe that is in that directory is the original version,  not the newer version I forced the installer to use).
    On the surface, CF seems to run OK, but I have not done any application testing yet.
    And finally my
    ** QUESTION **
    Would it be appropriate to simply point the java.home var to the new java directory? I see that the directory structures and files are not exactly the same  (close though) so I certainly don't want to break things by doing this,  but instinct tells me that if the installer broke using the older  version, then something else is gonna break down the road if I don't use  the new version. On the other hand, the differences in the  directories and files is enough that it makes me very nervous, with my  limitied java skill set, to make this decision. 
    Thanks in advance!!

    Hi Byron,
    Wow great post no doubt much of the information will be useful for those on Win03 SP2 +. Have to say not come across similar problem on Win08 r2 SP1 +.
    So to your question. Adobe security bulletin (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/894/cpsid_89440.html) recommends running CF8 and CF9 with JVM 1.6.0_24. The bulletin does not say how to do that. I take you installed JDK and not just JRE 1.6.0_24? Post install of JDK follow these steps:
    Stop CF - SERVICES.msc stop "ColdFusion 9 Application Server".
    Take a copy of CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config - so you got a backup.
    Edit CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config find line "java.home=" and comment it out eg:
    #java.home=C:/ColdFusion9/runtime/jre
    Add new line like so and save jvm.config:
    java.home=C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_24/jre
    Note  there the slashes and the location of the JRE (runtime) - you need to  point to the one in JDK because the other JRE in C:\Program  Files\Java\jre6 will be missing a DLL.
    Start CF via SERVICES.msc.
    HTH, Carl.

  • PS 6 beta stopped working - after installing my old tablet

    PS 6 beta stopped working - after installing my old tablet
    Just to let U know, everywhere else (GIMP,Paint etc) there is no problem,
    also tablet is fully working and operational,
    drivers are up to date,
    PS 6 beta brign an error 01 .
    Also say about contating support ...
    How can I constact support when I Dont have a license or serial number etc..
    since it ask me about it while trying to reach support.... pointless! mad!
    ? What now? should I trash my favorite tablet and buy some junk just because of this BUG?
    or will it be solved somehow?
    I do believe that nobody will even care about one human and none of programmers will update
    database of this program for older tablets,,, but JSUT TO LET U KNOW - its not working.
    and free software as GIMP is working just perfectly, and adobe **** is not even opening a program..

    oh well, as I mentioned my tablet is old, ( but i thought that new version of photoshop will contain also some parts from old ones for compability, as U said its not working like that o.o  ) is is Pentagram Duo Pen (USB)
       I uninstalled tablet drivers and adobe software and reinstalled again without tablet, now it's working so it was a driver that messed up all..
    Oh, the error code nr was : 1 
    i also was suprised but this is what I got from photoshop in error message the rest of it was about contacting adobe.com/support ..blahblahblah
    I am still not fully understanding how its possible that so well paid software is not compatble with my super old tablet while even stupid paint is..
    I am sure it is complicated, however as U see I am not able to anything else but operate with mouse.. or switch to linux and practice in gimp..
    if U wonna to take a look at the file of that driver i will post it here :
    (more files on http://download.pentagram.eu/en/drivers/graphic_tablets/duopen_usb/DuoPen_USB_Win2K_XP.zip)
    Cheers..

  • Firefox extension: "TrueSuite 5.2.500.16" stopped working after last firefox update (30.0), even though about:plugin says it's enabled. Any fix to make it work?

    Firefox extension: "TrueSuite 5.2.500.16" stopped working after last firefox update (30.0), even though about:plugin says it's enabled.
    i tried resetting firefox and look for similar problems, unfortunately didn't find anything.
    also there's weird blank space before address in address bar
    other extensions and addons seem to be running fine.

    jscher2000, i tried that, i thought it didnt work before, it's just that this time i accidentally closed (and thus restarted) firefox and it worked, thanks man
