Actually, you don't need to find it. Instead, perform a "soft" reset on your Time Capsule. After doing so, you will be provided a limited amount of time (about 5 mins.) where no passwords will be required. You can then access it with the AirPort Utility and set new ones.


To perform a soft reset: With the base station connected to power, press and hold the reset button for 1 sec, then release the button.
