Q: I can't access to my time capsule disk folders

My time capsule was locked and I forgot the password.

 

I did press reset but when she have returned, I lost all my disk information.

 

Does the reset action erased the disk?

 

Thanks for your help.

    No, reset will not touch the data.. but your TC name or even disk name could have changed and you will need to fix any connection to it. It will also reset passwords which could have been set.. and so you will have to change that.

     

    Mountain Lion seems to be painful in how the finder was setup.

     

    The TC should appear under shared. Make sure you have it turned on.
