Where in my Time Capsule does VMWare Fusion 5 store the virtual machine?

Greetings from Toronto Apple Community!
Due to a software issue my MAC Book Pro has been erased and selectively rebuilt from my Time Capsule in order to prevent re-creating the problem.
I run Mountain Lion with VM Fusion 5 and Windows 7 64 bit Pro on my MAC.
Does any one know where in the Time Capsule backups does VMWare store the virtual machine???
Your brilliance and answers would be most appreciated!

  • Time capsule does not appear in the finder.

    My time capsule appears in airport utility. It is ready to go. I have it on ethernet because airport isn't a very powerful wireless router. The time capsule does not appear in the finder. It does not appear in the disc utility. It does not appear in time machine. The airport utility will do factory resets, get it ready for internet, whatever. The rest of my net work can not see it.
    I have done the finder preferences. I have restarted the computer, jiggered the sharing preferences, done factory resets, tried to find sparce bundles and sparse bundles, reset the finder, force quit finder, tried to find finder plsts, trawled the discussion pages, tried to find server addresses and apple ids. Nothing seems to work.
    Time capsule never seems to work as smoothly as it supposed to. I shudder to present my problems to apple support because I know that its a long road and will probably end in tears. But here I am, naked before this disappointing edifice.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    What is the make and model number of your modem?
    I have a microwave modem on my roof. I don't think that has anything to do with this. I am not using my airport for a wireless router, only as a time capsule connected by ethernet. The Airport Utility calls my airport : Airport Extreme 802.11 ( 1st Generation )
    Is the Time Capsule acting as your main router or is another device handling those services?
    No, I have a lyncsis router. The wireless router function on airports doesn't seem to work very well. I don't think thats a problem with mine. My brothers have gone with lyncsis as well.
    Was the Time Capsule visible in the Finder before, and is now "lost", or has it never appeared in the Finder?
    It appeared on my previous laptop. That died. Now I have an imac. The airport has never appeared on the imac.
    Thanks for trying to help so quickly

  • Can't Connect to Time Capsule with VMware Fusion

    I'm having problems connecting to my Time Capsule's hard drive with Windows through VMware Fusion. I have Windows installed with Boot Camp, and use Fusion to run my Boot Camp partition virtually. When booting natively(Boot Camp), Windows can connect to the Time Capsule hard drive without any problems. However, when using Fusion, I get the following error message when trying to connect to the Time Capsule hard drive:
    +Unknown user, incorrect password, or login disabled. Please retype the login information or contact the disk's administrator(67)+
    Any ideas as to what the problem is?

    I had the exact same experience as you. I solved it by putting the Time Capsule into Bridge mode. On either Mac or Windows, open Airport Utility and click on Manual Setup. Then click on the "Internet" icon. Near the bottom of the tab you'll see "Connection Sharing". Click on the small arrow and select "Off(Bridge Mode).
    After doing this, the Time Capsule showed up in my virtual XP machine's My Computer as a mounted volume. I have successfully backed up my XP machine running in Fusion 2.0.1 by directing Windows Live OneCare to this network location.

  • Can time capsule be used to store the iPhoto library?

    Hi.
    Can somebody please advise if the time capsule can be used to store iPhoto library files (90GB) and iMovie files (600GB).
    Kind Regards
    Tony

    Don't know about iMovie, but if you check with the experts in the iPhoto support area, they will strongly advise against locating the iPhoto library on the Time Capsule....especially if you are using wireless.
    Might be a good idea to post over there for first hand info, but even if you decide to do this....risking corruption to your image library....have you thought about how you will back up the iPhoto library once it is on the Time Capsule?
    You will need another hard drive for this, of course...and an application that can backup a network drive....since Time Machine cannot do this.
    A better idea might be to connect a hard drive directly to your Mac using USB or FireWire and store the iPhoto library there....as the iPhoto experts will also recommend.
    Then....Time Machine will back up both your Mac and the hard drive.....so  you have backups of everything.

  • Does VMWare Fusion work with Lion

    Does VMWare Fusion work with Lion?

    After upgrading to Lion, I was experiencing significant problems with my MacBook Pro waking from sleep.  It would present me with the screen asking for my password and as soon as I typed into the field the screen would blank.  Almost like a badly done game.
    In an effort to address this, I re-installed VMWare Fusion.  The problem has not presented itself since, and it was happening on almost every wake-from-sleep.
    Take this as what it is -- a one-time anecdotal report.  But if you're experiencing issues after upgrading to Lion and you have Fusion, try just re-installing Fusion.  It doesn't take long and it doesn't impact your VMs (I'd shut them down before the re-install, but that's probably not a requirement).

  • My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi

    Following a question solved on March 24 by LaPastenague, but gone bad again.
    Apple AirPort Time Capsule
    I felt the need for a physical backup of my data, as I would not completely trust the different clouds. I use, and have used Dropbox for 4-5 years and are very satisfied with that, but I am still not sure if or when a political lunatic will shut off the internet.
    I purchased the Apple AP Time Capsule 2T, because all my other stuff are Apple, and that it's wireless. My old backup is Maxtor 300 GB.
    Since we stay 2-3 weeks on two locations, one in Norway and one in Sweden (two different countries) we must use Mobile Broadband 4G, cables or fibre connections are useless for us, and we don't have it up to the houses. I have one mini router for each country, we bring with us iPhones, iPads, iMac, Apple TV, APExpress. When we pass the boarder I change the mini router, and the system continues working perfect on the WiFi, except the APExpress that needs to be reconfigured,  but then it works.
    The APTC was difficult to make working as it would not accept to be in an existing network, but with good help from the Apple Community, LaPastenague, with forcing the TC connect to the APE with Ethernet cable in bridge mode, ref "My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi" from March 24, the problem was solved and all gadgets worked together in a perfect harmony, until we changed location.
    Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
    I have a slight feeling that the two WiFi bands are making the trouble as during the configuration of the TC sometime the last figure 6 and 7 pops up, and that has something two do with the two different 2,4 and 5 GHZ bands
    So, I am curious if you have any idea ?
    I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?

    I can deal with the last question first and easily.
    I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?
    Open the airport utility .. go to the disk tab and select erase.
    When you select erase you will get mulitiple options.
    Quick removes the file table but does not delete the files,, it takes 2min or less.
    A Zero out data is the secure way,, by writing 0 ie low level drive format.
    It can take several hours..
    7 pass will take a week.. not recommended..
    35 pass erase is ridiculous.. it would take a month.. put an ax through the TC. It is quick and better.
    Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
    The fact that it did work and has now failed might point to faulty unit.
    The only way to tell is reset it properly to factory and start over.
    Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
    Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
    Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
    Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
    Note..
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
    Generally having multiple wireless AP should not cause problems.. but it is better to set channels manually.. so it doesn't go beserk rotating channels.
    Remember to keep all names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Sadly though the Apple routers have no logging now and no SNMP and almost nothing to help diagnose a problem, so if it continues .. take it back to apple.. they have given you no other method of fixing it.

  • Is there a capability to save/export the time capsule settings file when using the iphone/ipad airport utility. the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app.

    is there a capability to save/export the new airport 2TB time capsule settings file when using the iphone/ipad airport utility. set-up wasn't a problem but the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app v6.3 to save the configuration file.

    the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app v6.3 to save the configuration file.
    Sounds like you are a bit confused with version numbers.
    Latest AirPort Utility version for the iPhone / iPad is 1.3.3.  There is no option or capability to export/import settings on the iOS version(s) of AirPort Utility.....although you could take a series of screen shots and save them for future reference.
    AirPort Utility 6.3.x is found on a Mac.....not on iPhone / iPad. Export and Import options are found under the File menu in 6.3.x.

  • Does time capsule make duplicate copies of the files those are already exist in it?

    Does time capsule make duplicate copies of the files those are already exist in it?

    It's not clear just what you mean.
    If you're backing-up your Mac, via the Time Machine software, to a Time Capsule or external HD, then yes, by default, Time Machine will copy everything the first time.  Subsequent backups will copy only what's new or changed.
    If you mean, can you back up other data on a Time Capsule, no, not with Time Machine.  It can only back up TO a network location, not FROM one.

  • Under Snow Leopard I used a WD My World NAS to back up my Mac Pro (Mid 2010). When I upgraded to Lion I am unable to access the backup because the NAS does not yet support AFP. I have now bought a Time Capsule and want to transfer the old backup onto it.

    Under Snow Leopard I used a WD My World NAS to back up my Mac Pro (Mid 2010). When I upgraded to Lion I am unable to access the backup because the NAS does not yet support AFP. I have now bought a Time Capsule and want to transfer the old backup onto it.
    How can I recover the NAS back up to put on my new Time Machine.
    Talking to Apple Support Adviser was a waste of time on case number 239647273
    Any thoughts or pointers?

    Keep the old OS around and just kick the tires and test new OS. Apple has a history and habit of breaking support in things like this.
    You can use TimeMachine as one level of backup, and even there there were changes with Lion, I would always recommend foremost backup clones of every volume. And clone (SuperDuper etc) can be stored on something like HP NAS Media Server which also was supporting TimeMachine, iTunes - until Apple made that harder and more their own proprietary format.

    Cloning as a Backup Strategy
    Rather than "upgrade" I would clone the system, and do a clean install, then allow Setup Assistant to import your files.

  • Time capsule does not appear in shared devices

    All of the sudden my Time Capsule does not show up in the shared devices. It's all up to date, it is working fine as a router and internet connection works fine. It also show up in the airpot utility and the light is green however it does not show up on the shared devices so I cannot access the data folider anymore.
    Furthermore Airport utility indicates that the disk is damaged but I cannot repair it because I cannot access it.
    Any ideas? (beside doing a reset which I have already done)

    That is bad.. the light should not be green unless you told the TC to ignore the problem.
    A damaged disk has to be replaced.. if the SMART has gone off or is showing as bad or no capacity then you need to replace the disk (or if under warranty.. the whole TC).
    How old is the TC?
    Model number from the base A1xxx helps.
    You can try doing an erase from the airport utility if the disk shows up at all. But if SMART has gone off the disk will need replacement anyway.
    If less than 1year return to apple for warranty replacement.. and if you have applecare on a computer it will cover the TC for up to 3years although the rules are strict.. so check.
    See instructions for removal of the hard disk.
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Apple_Time_Capsule_Model_A1302
    Certainly if the TC is older than 3years.. it might be better to consider replacement. Certainly replacing a hard disk could be just short fix until the power supply also goes.

  • HT201514 My Time Capsule/Router will not recognize the other Apple wireless devices that I own.  The older Air Port goes online immediately and recognizes each one by name.  The Time Capsule/Router does not finish the start up--long yellow flashing light.

    I recently purchased a MacBook Air and an Airport Time Capsule.  The Time Capsule does not recognize my old iPhone, my old iPod Touch and my new MacBook Air.  The old AirPort Extreme works perfectly on the network, so I know it's not my internet.  It also recognizes all my devices by name and hooks them up to the internet.  Is the Time Capsule broken or is there some secret trick I need to know to get it to work?
    Ellen H.

    Check the Ethernet connection to the AirPort Express. Make sure that the Ethernet connection from the Comcast modem is connected to the WAN port on the back of the AirPort Express. The WAN port is the one with the circle of dots shown over the port.
    It sounds like you are connected to the Ethernet LAN port.

  • HT4145 Does this article apply to OS X Lion and Airport Utility 6.0?  Reason: Airport Utility cannot find my Airport Extreme (4th generation) wirelessly on my Time Capsule configured network even although the firmware in both units is up to date.

    Does this article apply to OS X Lion and Airport Utility 6.0?
    Reason: Airport Utility cannot find my Airport Extreme (4th generation) wirelessly on my Time Capsule configured network even although the firmware in both units is up to date.

    I thought you were trying to Extend the network with an Express as the article mentions you pointed to...
    You can't find the Airport Extreme then...
    I woudl suggest doing a Factory reset....
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
    Then you should be able to set it up just as you did when it was new....
    Factory default reset (using reset button)
    If the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule isn't accessible from AirPort Utility, the Factory Default reset can be accomplished by using the reset button.
    Unplug the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule from power.
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen or pencil, then plug the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule back in while continuing to hold the button until you see the light (LED) flash rapidly. This should happen after a few seconds.
    Release the button. This will factory default reset the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule.

    Is it because the backup on progress?

    Hmmm.. ok.. well you are kind of on your own.. purchasing from another country leads to problems.. especially as the TC itself is regional .. all the setup applies to the region it is sold in.
    Make sure you are using ipv6 in the computers..
    See
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
    The 6.3 utility will not work without it.
    Make sure all names are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Do a full reset and start over.
    But there are no more controls.. you cannot set mode..
    You can set wireless channels.. so do .. try different wireless names for the different bands.. and set fixed channels.. whatever your country allows, usually 2.4ghz you can use 1, 6, 11 but 13 maybe an option as well. 5ghz is much less clear and there are more variation. Just set to one channel and then another.
    Set WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character password .. pure alphanumeric mix of upper and lower case and numbers.
