TM does not appear in system preferences

I've recently set up a TM for backing up wirelessly, this works fine with my mac book, but it does not show up in my system preferences on my I Mac with OS X 10.5.1, it is only visible on the desk top as data.
I'm using the TM as a primary network device and all is ok in the network utility as far as the network is concerned.
Any help would be gratefully accepted

Upgrade to 10.5.6. At a minimum, I think you need at least 10.5.2 to use time machine with time capsule.

  • ICloud does not appear in system preferences?

    Just bought a used macbook with OSX Lion already installed on it. The issue is that iCloud is not in the System Preferences
    and I would like to find out what I have to do to get this application to appear? Please help...

    If you have Lion, check to see the version.
    You are most likely running version 10.7.1 in which you will need to run Software Update and update your computer to version 10.7.2 to get iCloud in System Preferences.

    When I click sharing in system preference, there is no "CDROM" to activate sharing.
    I dont see it there. what can i do?
    Please help.

    Presumably your MacBook Air is the borrower, not the computer offering the CD ROM to share.
    Anyway, here's a good tutorial guide to CD sharing for the MacBook Air:

  • Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN

    Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN tab when creating a new Data source.
    What I did so far:
    I downloaded the basic and odbc zips for Window 64-bit.
    Unzipped the basic zip.
    Unzipped the odbc zip to the same directory.
    Added the dir path to the System Environment Variable called Path.
    Double-clicked on the odbc_install.exe to run it from Windows Explorer.
    Then I tried to add the driver to create a new data source but it does not appear in the list of drivers.
    From a cmd window, I navigated to the instant client directory and tried to run odbc_install again.
    I got the message: Oracle ODBC Driver with same name already exists.
    What am I missing?

    hello, I did it like that you say,but the result also is "oracle odbc driver with same name already exists". I don't kown what can I do it ,Thank you!

  • AirPort does not show under System Preferences Network Show

    Hello,
    I am having problems with my AirPort Express. It is listed in AirPort Admin Utility (with an IP Address), but does not show up under System Preferences > Network > Show.
    How can I get the AirPort recognized?
    Thanks,
    Fidelio

    In System under "Network" it shows "AirPort Card" with "No information found"
    Your Mac does not have a wireless card installed or it is not working.
    However, I would like to set up a shared printer and instructions I have for this say that I need to get the IP address of AirPort under System Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort.
    That information should have nothing to do with a printer since the information there relates to your Mac... not to the AirPort Express (AX).

  • In system preferences - languages and text - the formatting of numbers does not respond, In system preferences - languages and text - the formatting of numbers does not respond

    When in system preferences, under languages and text, and within it in regions, there is a place where you can format numbers - or currencies by indicating that you want a dot in decimals and comma in thousands, for instance.  This is in order to format numbers in calculating sheets, either in numbers of excell.
    Since I have moved to Mountain Lion, this does not work.  However, with an apple advisor, we were able to determine that it is not a global problem, it seems to be a problem in my computer.  We found this out when we created a new administrator user as a test, and the formatting mentioned above works like a charm.
    Then we tried separating all my preferencies into a untitled folder restarted and got a set of new prefernces for my own user, and the formatting required did not work.
    Now I am - as you can see - quite stumped, the advisor told me it might be in the home folder, but I lost touch with him, and I am hoping that I can find SOMEONE that can help me with this issue.
    Thank you

    Hi there!  Just reading that paragraph I hurt all over
    But I got it solved and I would like to share it with you.  I actually called Apple and they created a user roots, and from the library in the HD replaced the preferences.  After that it worked like a charm.... But that is not all, then excel did not work, even if preferences did, so I went and uninstalled microsoft office, and reinstalled so that was that...
    I use safari... I love it, but thanks for all your offers.  If I even do need something, I will let you know. and PLEASE let me know if what I wrote above makes sense.... but it works
    Take care
