In trying to set up Time Machine. I'm asked to create a Time Capsule in Air Port Utility - but Air Port Utility can't find a Time Capsule. So . . . how do I create a Time Capsule so that Time Machine can function?
MacBook/ OSX Lion/ Intel Duo
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
A Time Capsule is an Apple device that incorporates a wifi/either router with a hard disk for remote storage.
For a MacBook you need to connect an external drive and format it with Mac format. Then Time Machine preferences will shot that disk as being available.

The first Backup takes from all afternoon to all night.
The second backup takes...

I don't own an apple TimeCapsule! In fact, I only just found out it's a piece of hardware! I thought it was an internal file of some kind.
Oooooooooooooooh! So it's a piece of hardware! He he. thanks
