For those who are still having problems: in Airport Utility, choose your Time Capsule, Manual Setup, Disks tab, File Sharing tab. There you have to have selected Enable File Sharing and Share disks over WAN.

I am trying to set my time capsule so that I can access to my files from the internet through my MacBook Air (even if my macbook pro if off). I followed these steps but when I connect to my

“I want to set it up as a file sharing server that they can access any time and upload/download files. I don’t care if it’s FTP, they need my IP address, whatever.”
Is this possible?? If so… HOW?!
I’ve searched the internet on end to find an answer to this question, but I just come up short! It’s driving me insane to have 2TB HD, and I can’t share projectfiles that I’m working on with co-workers!
PLEASPLEASPLEAS, someone, clarify all of this :D

Open finder, press cmd+k and write afp://your-ip and then when asked your username and password.

I found the script to be pretty useless seeing you can just as easily connect manually.

If that doesn’t work there’s probably something wrong else with the configuration.

Good luck

Paste the following code (be sure to replace Your External IP Address, Your Username, and the Time Capsule Password): mount volume ¬ “afp://YOUR EXTERNAL IP ADDRESS” as user name “YOUR USERNAME” with password “TIME CAPSULE PASSWORD”

i change ip, username and tc pass in the script editor and i get the following error

Expected “given”, “in”, “of”, expression, “with”, “without”, other parameter name, etc. but found unknown token.

I am new to applescript editor, please help me, i need to access my TC tomorrow over the internet

///mine is working fine like this now///

for your pc friends i guess you just need to fill the options in the second screenshot “windows sharing”, add a smb port forward and you are good for that too.

///i didn’t try this yet///

what i did in short:
- time capsule behind a router in bridge mode (dhcp is supplied by the router)
- port forwarding on the router for afp (port 548) to time capsule
- dyndns account for the router

time machine and overall access to time capsule from everywhere ;-) thanks to jenny and all commenters here.

I got a time capsule, and have friends that I want to share files with. They are on Macs and PCs. Since the time capsule is always connected to the internet, I want to set it up as a file sharing server that they can access any time and upload/download files. I don’t care if it’s FTP, they need my IP address, whatever. I would buy a MobileMe account to make this happen. Is this possible?
