Will the apple airport extreme back up a windows 2003 server?

will the apple time capsule back up a windows 2003 server?

Yes.. the TC is SMB enabled..
That means it can store files.. there is no backup in the TC.. Time Machine in the Mac has no useful equivalent in the PC.. and Microsoft backup is such rubbish as to be totally worthless. Just buy a backup package that can use network drive.. there are literally hundreds around.. if you are backing up a server.. I do hope you already have some sort of back up regeme.
TC is not fast though.. so you might consider if another type of backup would not work better for you.

    Is an updated version of the Apple Airport Extreme Base Station due to come out soon?

    On a User to User Support Area, we are all users here, just like you.
    No one here will know what a notoriously secretive company like Apple might plan to do, unless Apple has made an official announcement in that regard.
    Anything else that you might have "heard", would be either rumor or speculation.
    We try hard not to deal with either of these things on this support area.

  • Will the Apple Time Capsule back up both Apple and Windows in a Virtual macine

    Will Apple Time Capsule back up Windows as well as Apple data in a virtual machine with Parallels?

    Windows home version MSBackup, cannot backup to network drives.
    That was a little bonus from Bill for those who didn't fork out for Pro or Ultimate.
    Like people with home versions would never need to backup to network drives.. oh no.. never!!
    You need to mount the hard disk in windows for it to work.
    It will help a lot if you load the airport utility for windows into your windows OS.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1547
    Open windows explorer and type the network address of the TC.
    \\TCname.local (where TCname is the correct network name of the TC).
    The TC should have all names that are windows compatible.. ie
    Fred Blog's Airport Time Capsule is just wrong. It is too long, it has spaces and it has apostrophe which is illegal.
    A good name for the TC is TC
    The default hard disk share name of data is fine. It should not be Time Capsule or anything again that is over long .. has spaces or is otherwise incompatible with windows.
    A good name for the TC wifi is TCwifi
    Then you can mount it \\TC
    typing that directly into the address bar of windows explorer.
    There are still issues with windows naturally and running in parallels I have no idea what other issues might come up.
    Tell me if you have issues.. but you will need most likely to check the network.
    Open a command window and ping the TC by name and by IP address. If IP address works just mount by IP.
    \\10.0.1.1 for example .. and that is the default TC IP address when in router mode.
    If you still cannot access the TC my recommendation is to use a USB drive and use that.. it is 10x easier and more reliable than mixing Mac and windows backups on the TC.

  • I recently purchased the Apple Airport Extreme Base Station so that I can have wireless, my question is: so I need anything else so that my guests can have internet access via my router?

    Hello Anyone and Everyone who can answer my question,
    I would like to be able to offer wireless access to the internet for my guest's who use my apartment above my garage that is about 75 feet away from my house/computer. I have a MacBook Pro and have satellite internet service through an ehternet connection. I recently purchased an Apple Extreme Base Station with simultanious Dual-Band (MC34OLL/A), that is in the process of being shipped as I type, and am wondering if I need anything else to install in the apartment for the wireless to work with the Apple Extreme Base Station? Thank you for any help in this matter.
    Sincerely,
    Lizzy

    In AirPort Utility, enable the guest network by selecting your Extreme, then the Edit button, then the Wireless tab, then check the box for "Enable Guest Network":

  • Will the apple airport express work in pakistan

    Im going abroad and wanted to know if tis device will allow me to have Wifi when I am in Pakistan Not sure if I should buy or not.

    The express will work.. but you probably cannot select pakistan as location.. therefore the wireless setup might be wrong.. or worse illegal for the region you are travelling to.. having said that.. you can easily enough discover the local regulations and set channels on the wireless manually to conform.
    Otherwise they are excellent little travel router.

  • Best usb hub for Apple Airport Extreme base station

    Hi all does any one know which usb hub is the best to use with the apple airport extreme the 8.11n version?
    Im aware i need a powered usb hub ideally im lookin for a 7 port hub and i think also its needs to be plug and play rather than needing a driver to be installed as this feature is not available on the router,
    I read in another forum that the (macally usb hub) would work but wondering if anyone had any experience with this as i know some do not work fo ex. the one ive just bought and some are faster than others any info anyone has on this matter wi ll be greatly appreshed thanks in advanced

    if i have a quicktime movie stored in the USB external hard drive and if i run that movie over the "connection" via the new airport extreme... would the movie by "choppy" or would it be as smooth as if the external hard-drive connected directly to computer?
    Sorry, things like this are not possible to predict in advance since there are so many variables involved. But, your chances of a smooth connection will improve using "n" wireless speeds with the computer close to the wireless router.
    I would not recommend trying to store images on a drive that is accessed only by wireless.  My strong preference for any kind of video or image file storage is to have the drive hard wired to the computer and/or router.

  • We live in an old Victorian House and have virtually no connectivity on the second or third floor using a  Linksys System, will the Apple Aiorport solve thge problem ? do you need sattelite stations on each floor?

    Any advice on Airport solving our second and third floor WIFI connectivity problems welcomed, do we need sattelite stations, ?? do not mind buying the system if it works?

    ......will the Apple Airport solve the problem?
    The broadcast power of all wireless routers is controlled by law, so as you might imagine, devices from varying manufactureres tend to perform about the same. It is very unlikely that an Apple AirPort router would perform significantly better...or worse...than the Linksys device that you have now.
    do we need satttelite stations?
    Yes, probably at least one per floor and possibly more, depending on the thickness of the walls in the areas where a wireless signal will be needed. Since you already have a Linksys router, and it is always best to use products from the same manufacturer on a wireless network, it would probably make sense to check with Linksys to see what they suggest as additions to your current router.
    It would be a excellent idea to have an IT professional come out and survey the house and take some measurements with test equipment to propose a system that is right for your needs. That will likely save a lot of headaches (and money) down the road.

  • Is the Apple Wireless Keyboard fully compatible with Windows 7 in Boot Camp?

    If you have an iMac running Snow Leopard and Windows 7, will the Apple Wireless Keyboard work properly in Windows 7 (via Boot Camp)?
    I'm asking because a friend of mine has an Apple Wired Keyboard that they want to get rid of, and upgrade to an Apple Wireless Keyboard. However, their concern is that the Apple Wireless Keyboard won't work properly (or reliably) when they run Windows 7 on their iMac.

    I'm using an Apple Wireless Keyboard running Boot Camp and Windows 7 64 bit right now typing this.   Seems to run just fine under Windows 7 for me.  Some of the familiar Windows keyboard keys are not present, of course, though there are key mappings to get to those too.  I actually like this keyboard a lot, under Windows 7 or OS X.

  • Setting up a Apple Airport Extreme to work on the Telecom New Zealand Broadband network?

    Has anyone had any success in setting up their airport extreme to work on the Telecom New Zealand broadband network without having to connect it to the modem which NZ Telecom supply?
    Any advice and tips would be welcomed!

    1. Since a "router" is needed next to the cable modem and before the ethernet switch, should we put the new Extreme in that basement location? Or, should we instead put the new Extreme somewhere on the main floor of the house (connected by ethernet) and leave the old one where it is?
    Assuming the older Extreme is no older than Gen3 or Gen4 it is a perfectly adequate router for the speeds that cable will generally give you.
    And therefore it is best to bridge the new AC extreme and use it upstairs via ethernet. That will then give you the best wireless in the most suitable area of the house.
    2. Should we somehow bridge the two Airport Extremes (the old one and the new one) into one wireless network?
    Yes, what is called roaming network. Both units create a wireless network.
    You simply setup same name and same security/password on all the devices for wireless. The wireless channels are the differentiator.. and you can either leave that on auto or take some control over it and set manually. I would be inclined to do it manually just because the AC wireless needs the 149 channel for high speed AC.. so you do not want the old Extreme in the basement using that. Force that one to channel 36 or 40. However it is likely to work itself out ok on auto.. but I recommend you check it.
    The apple docos on roaming are rather ancient..
    Here is a post with newer info.
    Setting Up Roaming - New AirPort Extremes and Utility
    3. Should we go a further step and also bridge in one or both of the old Airport Express units, perhaps on the top floor of the house for example?
    Yes, if you have a black spot with poor wireless you can add the Express to help. The old ones are single band and will probably work better at 2.4ghz but whatever suits you.. perhaps setup one on 2.4ghz and one on 5ghz.

    Bought an Apple Airport Extreme used and it did not come with any discs. Do i need any discs? or is there another way to setup this airport without using a software disc?

    You can download the setup manual and software that you need.
    Look on the bottom of the AirPort Extreme for the Model Number.  It's A.......  something.
    Post back with the model number and the exact operating system you are running on your Mac or PC.

  • Does the new airport extreme support backing up via time machine to an external hard drive pluged into the usb port

    Does the new airport extreme support backing up via time machine to an external hard drive pluged into the usb port

    Yes, but you might want to note that the port on the AirPort Extreme is only USB 2.0, and that it runs at about half the speed of the USB 2.0 port on a computer, so things are going to be quite SLOW as far as backups are concerned, or anything else for that matter.
