Sorry, but that is just not enough information in order for us to be able to assist you with a potential solution.


For example:

  1. Are you trying to access another Time Machine backup or to another device's data files?
  2. If the latter, how did you initially configure this Time Capsule to share its internal hard drive:
  • Using the "With accounts," "With a disk password," or "With a device password" option?
  • Is it configured to share out the entire disk's volume?
  • Is this other computer run macOS, Windows, or Linux?
  • Are you having issues with file access permissions?
