Knock Knock!

Knock Knock!

If you have an Ethernet cable, your could do your first backup via Ethernet; this will allow for the fastest initial backup. Simply plug the Ethernet cable into one of Time Capsule's Ethernet ports and the other into your Mac's Ethernet port.

Have you changed your network settings on either the TC or the Mac? I would suggest you make your Mac's ethernet connect via DHCP, and reset the TC to its default settings. But then again, I haven't used a TC so I can't really say.

 

[aryayush]

What you suggested was right. If you can’t get the Time Capsule working, just reset it. I hope you know how to do that.

 

[SunnyChahal]

^^
I do!

@Goobi,Thanks,it paid off!

 

[cooldudie3]

How much does the Time Capsule cost? Are there any more choices for Time Machine? Can the Time Capsule work like a hard drive? Is it easy to use? Are there any problems any of you experienced? Whew!
Thanks in advance

I think the 2.0 software is not sluggish at all! It's working like elves working on presents for Christmas!

Can we have another poll? I'm bored already

 

[aryayush]

How much does the Time Capsule cost?

500GB: Rs. 15,880
1TB: Rs. 25,875

Please don’t ask for the prices here. Just visit apple.co.in/store and add 4% to the retail prices listed there.

Are there any more choices for Time Machine?

You can use any external hard disk drive with Time Machine. Time Capsule just makes it wireless and more reliable.

Can the Time Capsule work like a hard drive?

Yes, it can and does.

Is it easy to use?

You do realise that it’s an accessory for Macs made by Apple, right?

Are there any problems any of you experienced?

Well, I’d expected the range to be much better but apart from that, no, none.

Thanks in advance

You’re welcome.

There is an initial backup problem.It takes ages through WiFi but it's quite fast through ethernet cable.Backing up right now

 

[aryayush]

I got Super Monkey Ball, man. It’s up and running like a charm. And boy is it difficult!

----------------------------

Guys, you’ve got to check out midomi. It’s free and it recognises songs that you sing to it. Even Hindi. It’s just mind-blowing. The quality of iPhone applications is freaking me out!

 

[jamesbond007]

zZZ

 

[cooldudie3]

@Aayush
Is midomi free or do you need to pay?
-----
I think they should start making IM apps for the SDK system. I don't think many people use AIM, but thank god it was free!
---------
I remember on the SDK introduction, there was a game about flyers and shooting down space enemies. It used the accelerometer to move and tap to shoot. It was showed but did it ever come out?

 

[goobimama]

@Cooldudie: You have iTunes right? Just hit it once in a while. Not saying your questions are bothering us or anything, just that its right there in iTunes whether the app is free, green or stinky.

And yeah, we need a proper IM app. I'm guessing Adium and Google will bring something to the table, along with Yahoo. I don't see MSN poking its head in...

That space game was only to demo the SDK to the developers and not intended to be a real game. But boy would it be awesome if someone were to create that game.

 

[preshit.net]

When Aayush mentioned about midomi, the 9th word yelled out 'FREE'. Wait, it is still doing that. Huh, what's my point here? Ehh... I need some rest.

 

[goobimama]

Super Monkey Ball. Hmm. Not bad for a game, but I don't see what the fuss is about. And yeah, really difficult to control, although I seem to have gotten the hang of it. Gotta love the music though!
