Chapter 2 Setting Up Your AirPort Extreme 13

XXXXXX, where XXXXXX is the last six digits of the AirPort ID.

4 If you’re prompted for a password, enter it.
5 Adjust the settings you want for your AirPort Extreme and your network.
Using Time Machine with Your AirPort Extreme
If you connect a USB hard disk to your AirPort Extreme, you can use the Time Machine
application to back up all your Mac computers, including your photos, music, movies,
and documents.
After you set up Time Machine, it automatically backs up your computer on a regular basis.
Use Time Machine preferences to set up automatic backups, use a dierent backup disk, or
adjust other settings.
To set up or adjust Time Machine on a computer using Mac OS X v10.5.7 or later:
1 Choose Apple > System Preferences, and then click Time Machine.
2 Slide the switch to ON.
3 Click Select Disk.
4 Choose your AirPort Extreme and click Use Disk.
Important: Your rst backup with Time Machine could take overnight or longer, depending
on how much data you’re backing up. To speed up the initial backup, connect your
AirPort Extreme to your computer using Ethernet. In each subsequent backup, Time Machine
backs up only les that have changed since the previous backup, so the backups don’t take
as long.
