The Time Capsule has up to 3 different passwords.


Base Station Password......used as a device password

Wireless Network Password.....used to connect to the wireless network

Disk Password.......optional password to connect to the Time Capsule disk. If this option is not enabled, the Base Station Password is used


Which password are you looking for? Any way to ask the same question......what is it that you are trying to do that requires a password?


In any case, a Soft Reset can be used to reset the password. See the information about a Soft Reset in this Apple Support document:

If all else fails, you can use a Hard Reset on the Time Capsule and then set it up again. Might be a good idea to jot down the passwords that you decide to use.
