Explain the steps you used to setup and connect TM to the TC.


It will work fine with any Mac OS.. but the airport utility 6.3 and possibly TM cannot see the TC without you installing ipv6 local link for the wireless connection. Did you try that?


See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597


A simple reboot or sometimes a reset of the TC also magically gets things working.
