I have a Time Capsule.  It was connected to my wireless network and I could access it.

I moved and changed wireless networks, HOW THE HELL DO I GO IN AND TELL THIS THING TO CONNECT TO MY NEW WIRELESS NETWORK!!

yes i'm shouting at the computer...

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Geek squad? Actually never do that. Call apple support. Should be free the first year.

Does AirPort Utility see it? (in Applications/Utilities) That should get you control of it again.

Go to the Apple Forums and find the appropriate section and ask the question. (Do a search first, often that's very helpful.) They're the go-to place for help.

NO, i cant find it in airport utility.

I've searched the mac forums but I cant find anything about this situation.

I thought the genius level knowledgebase here would be quicker

I don't own a Time Capsule, but I'd guess you'd have to connect to it with an Ethernet (or maybe even USB) cable, if you've changed your WiFi SSID and/or password?






Beyond that wild ass guess...fire up ye olde Google.

Is AirPort on?
Can you see your new wireless network?

You are going to have to re-configure it for your new wireless network. You still need to hardwire it into your cable or dsl modem.

ETA, you don't really have a new wireless network, your time capsule is the wireless network. You have a new modem which the time capsule needs to be configured on.

Ummmm, Time Capsule sorta IS your network.



go to your HD, Applications, Utilities, and launch Airport Utility.

gonna need to connect your mac hardwire to the time capsule WAN port- probably going to have to hard reset the TC with the ol' paperclip too. If you don't have a hard port on your mac (i.e. just an Air- and no USB Ethernet dongle) this could be... challenging.
