How To Sync Your Shared Google Calendars with Your iPhone
From HowToGeek.com :
Smartphones are essential to our daily lives. They help us stay connected and keep us organized. But when it comes to calendar syncing and Gmail there are limitations. Here’s how you can sync your shared calendars and contacts from Gmail.
If you use Gmail you probably know about the ability to create and share calendars with others. They help keep groups organized and even let you subscribe to public events. When it comes to getting that information on your smartphone there are some trade offs if you are on a non-Android phone.
Android phones will sync your email, contacts, and all of your calendars by just singing into your Gmail account. If you have an iPhone however, you will miss out on contact syncing if you set up your account as a Gmail account.
There is another option. You can set up your Gmail account as an Exchange account and be able to sync your email, contacts, and calendar, but by default it will only sync your primary calendar.
To add additional calendars you need to open your Safari browser on your iPhone and go to http://m.google.com/sync
Sign in with your Google account and then select which phone you want to change your sync settings on.
Select which calendars you would like sync with your phone.
Open your calendar app and open calendars in the top left corner. You should now see multiple calendars listed under your account instead of just the primary one you had before.
If you don’t, hit the refresh button in the bottom left corner or just give it 5-10 minutes to pull in your new calendars. If the calendars still do not show up, go to your settings app and remove your Gmail account and then add it again.
Once you see your shared calendars, check the ones you want to view by default in the calendar app and you are all set.
If you have problems with the m.google.com/sync web page not forwarding properly from your mobile browser you can also go to https://www.google.com/calendar/iphoneselect from your computer’s browser to turn on and off calenders for your iPhone. This will bypass the device selection but may work for non-iOS devices connected to Gmail via Exchange.

SSH on MAC OSX

Configure SSH To Allow Logins Without A Password:
First you will need to modify the sshd_config file which can be found in the /private/etc/ directory. The sshd_config file has a bunch of options commented out which typically means the setting to the right of that option are the default options for sshd. The option we need to modify is PermitEmptyPasswords which is located around line 57 of the sshd_config file. Make sure when you are done you set this option back to the default setting and restart SSH. We will be changing the no to a yes on line 57 as shown below.
SSHD Default PermitEmptyPasswords Configuration Setting:
# To disable tunneled clear text passwords, change to no here! |
#PasswordAuthentication yes |
#PermitEmptyPasswords no |
Uncomment line 57 by removing the ‘#’ in front of PermitEmptyPasswords and change the no to a yes using your favorite text editor such as vi.
SSHD Default PermitEmptyPasswords Configuration Setting:
# To disable tunneled clear text passwords, change to no here! |
#PasswordAuthentication yes |
PermitEmptyPasswords yes |
Once you have made the modification to allow usernames without passwords to login via SSH you can start SSH using the information below.
Start SSHD Using Mac OSX Command Line From A Terminal Window:
Starting and stopping SSHD via the OSX CLI is easy. To start SSH simply type “/sbin/service ssh start” and to stop SSH you can type “/sbin/service ssh stop”. Both of these commands are shown in the below terminal capture.
Macintosh-3:/ root# /sbin/service ssh start |
Macintosh-3:/ root# |
Macintosh-3:/ root# /sbin/service ssh stop |
Macintosh-3:/ root# |
As you can see issuing each of he above commands will provide no output to the shell. After issuing the ssh start command above you should now be able to login to the OSX device on port 22 using a valid username without a password.
**Note** Please remember to set he PermitEmptyPasswords back to “no” after you are completed and shut down SSH since most desktops and/or laptops should not have this configured by default.
Time Capsule
This is a direct copy from http://techsupport.foreverwarm.com.
From Techsupport.Foreverwarm.com :
Using Time Capsule with a Windows PC
What is Apple’s Time Capsule?
Apple’s Time Capsule is a handy all-in-one Wireless Internet router, Networked Hard Drive, and Print Server. Primarily built to work with Apple computers, laptops, and peripherals it can work just as easily within your Windows environment. I’ll show you how.
Why use a Time Capsule with Windows?
Time Capsule can replace your small office or home router and offer additional features. The built in hard drive can be used as a backup spot or centralized shared drive. It has wireless capabilities so your laptops and visitors can attach wirelessly. Attach your USB printer and it now becomes a centralized networked printer that can be used by everyone.
If you are thinking to use Time Capsule as a backup platform you may want to consider a Cloud Backup Service which will ensure that a copy of your important files are also off-site.
Time Capsule Specifications:

Jump to a section:
- Time Capsule Step-by-Step Windows setup
- Time Capsule Step-by-Step hard disk setup
- Time Capsule Support Options
- Printing
Apple Time Capsule requirements for Windows PC’s:
- PC with Windows XP SP3 or Windows Vista SP1, (download XP SP3,download Vista SP1)
- CD drive
- Network or wireless networking capability (802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g wireless card) A Gigibit network card will certainly be your best option
- USB printer if you want to share your printer
- Bonjour for Windows (included on the CD)
How to set up Time Capsule on a Windows PC:
Here’s Step-by-Step instructions for setting up Time Capsule in your Windows environment. The instructions are the same for Windows XP, Vista or 7. [Note: These instructions are written as if you’ve just taken the Time Capsule out of the box and set it up for the first time]
- Plug in the appropriate cables and then power. There is no power switch as this device is meant to be always on.
- If you check your Wireless devices they should now see a device called “Apple Network XXXXXX”, which is the last six digits of the MAC address of your Time Capsule.
- Insert the CD that came with the Time Capsule and you will see the Airport setup screen that says “Welcome to the Airport Installer”. Click next.
- Accept the License Agreement
- Click Next at the information window.
- Select where you want the files to be installed at the Installation Options window. C:Program FilesAirport is the default and unless you have a reason to change this, simply click Next
- When you see the Congratulation window, click Finish
- A pop-up will appear asking if you want to connect or ignore. For now, chose Ignore.
- Now go to Start, Programs, Airport, Airport Utility. Click OK to pass the Airport Utility information screen
- If you receive a message to update the Airport Utility software, you should do so.
- At the Apple Software Update window, uncheck the boxes for Mobile Me and Safari 4. You just want the update. Click Install 1 Item and click OK to the license that pops up.
- When you receive notification that the software has been successfully installed, press OK, then press Quit when you are taken back to the Update Manager.
- Now go back to the Airport Utility and it will search for Networks and Airport devices like your Time Capsule. If all goes well it should find the Time Capsule device
- Notice that the IP address is 10.0.1.1, an unlikely address to be seen on Windows networks that often start with 192.168.X.X.
- You will need to temporarily change the IP address of the computer you are using in order to communicate with this device properly until you can assign it an address that is within your subnet.
- Go to Start, Control Panel, Network Connections and right-click on your Local Area connection
- Click on Internet Protocol and click Properties. Most computers will be set up to obtain IP address and DNS automatically. If yours is different, write down the current settings so you can change back to them afterwards.
- Click on Use the Following IP Address and enter 10.0.1.10 and a Mask of 255.255.255.0. You don’t need to enter anything else. Click OK, then Close at the Network Properties window.
- NOTE: You will not be able to see any other devices or the Internet during this phase!
- Now go back to the Airport Utility and update the Time Capsule firmware by clicking Update Firmware. You should receive a popup about services being temporarily unavailable. Select “Do not show this warning again” if you’re comfortable with knowing the Time Capsule will go offline temporarily each time you update the settings.
- If all goes well you should now see the Airport Utility screen with a large green arrow in the center, click Continue
- At Foreverwarm we always assign a static IP to devices other than desktops. We assign a wireless device (802.11x) using .11 as the fourth octet (eg 192.168.1.11). If you’re ok to let the network assign the IP address automatically you can skip this section, go to Step 14.
- Click Manual Setup.
- Click the Internet icon at the top, then under the Internet Connection tab change Configure IPv4 to “Manually”. Enter an IP address that is unused on your network and the appropriate mask (probably 255.255.255.0). If you are not using this as your router, then add your router address and DNS server (usually either your internal server or the router IP). Then click Update
- Change the default password to your network standard or something you can remember.
- Click the SNMP over WAN option, and uncheck Allow SNMP over WAN
- Click Unsecured Wireless Network and click Change Security. This will take you to the Wireless Tab. Make the appropriate changes and click Update. I would at least change the default Wireless Network Name (usually referred to as the SSID) and select a wireless security option such as WPA2 Personal.
- This takes you back to the problems page, with the last issue being the ability to Configure the device over the WAN or Internet. If this is for a home then I would uncheck the box, however for small business with external technical support such as Foreverwarm does (and this device being used as a router) this needs to be enabled. Just make sure the administrative password has been changed and the technician knows what it is.
- If you choose to allow Configuration over WAN then you must also check the box to Ignore this problem.
- Now you will need to change your IP address back to what it was before, under Network Properties, in order to communicate with the Time Capsule again.
- You should now be able to connect to the wireless portion of the Time Capsule, and the light on the front of the Time Capsule should be green. If not you need to go back to the Utility and fix whatever problems exist.
Setting up the Time Capsule Hard disk
Time capsule will automatically create a Z: drive on the Windows computer(s) that the Airport Utility is installed. To map a drive on another Windows computer, follow these instructions:
- From the Airport Utility, select the Airport Icon and the Time Capsule tab.
- Change the Time Capsule name to something that makes sense, or follow your network standards.
- Now move to the Disks Icon and the File Sharing tab. Change Secure Shared Disks to “With a device password” and enter the password.
- Enter your Workgroup name, you can find this by right-clicking on My Computer, selecting properties and then the Computer Name tab. Your workgroup will show on this page.
- Enter your WINS server name or IP address, if you have one, and click Update
- If you are mapping a drive from the computer that is running the Airport Utility, select the Airport Base Station agent on your task bar and click the name of your Time Capsule. Under Action select Connect with Password, put in your password and click the Remember this password box. Click OK.
- From any other computer, go to My Computer and in the address bar enter {time capsule name} (eg: timecapsule.local) Don’t forget to put the .local at the end or you may not be able to see the Time Capsule.
- At the username/password prompt, enter the username “admin” and the password you used for Disks access.
- You should now see the empty Data drive
- If you want to map to this drive directly, right-click on it and selectMap Network Drive. Be sure to select Connect using a different username and enter the username/password you used to get to the Time Capsule, in the format timecapsulenameusername and your password.
If you’ve made it this far, CONGRATULATIONS!
If something didn’t go right and the Time Capsule is unavailable, check some of the support options shown below, or contact us.
Using Time Capsule for Windows Backups:
There is no Apple Time Machine Windows backup software, however you can use any Windows based backup software such as Microsoft SyncToy. Simply select the folders you wish to back up and select the Time Capsule drive letter (eg Z:) as the destination.

| TIP: Grant Conners adds:
If you have followed this tutorial but still cannot access your Time Capsule’s hdd, try setting your WINS server to the ip address of your TC. This can be done by:
You should now see your TC under “My Computer” Until I changed this setting in Windows XP, I could not use the TC as a networked drive. |
| Windows Vista cannot see Time Capsule drive
This might be your security settings. Open the Local Security Policy utility: %windir%system32secpol.msc /s Navigate to Local Policies folder, Security Options view. Find “Network security: LAN Manager authentication level”. If it is set to “Send NTLMv2 response only” change it to “Send LM & NTLM – use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated”. |
| Eneego adds: Keys to setting up Apple Time Capsule airport extreme and allowing both PC and Mac to still see each other: 1. Best to use PC version of airport utility (Mac version may work with what I know now!) 2. Use dashes or underscores in naming conventions; safer bet 3. In airport utility/disks/file sharing tab, click Secure Shared Disks: with user accounts (these accounts will come in handy when trying to access the time machine) 4. Time machine IP address: 10.0.1.1 5. Macbook Pro (bill’s 6-2009 model) IP address: 10.0.1.3 6. I changed workgroup on both Mac and PC to “APPLEHOME”. When they were originally in same workgroup, I could not see them. When I had them in different workgroups, I could start to get login dialog boxes. Now they are both in the same workgroup and seem happy. 7. The biggest leap forward was when I added the Mac IP address to the WINS server field!!!! 8. I used several discussion groups, forums and apple support to get success. |
Time Capsule Windows 7 Support
[Note: this seems to have been resolved with the newest firmware version]
It sounds like there may be an issue between Windows 7 and the Time Capsule. See the Mac Rumors Forum.
I have personally experienced these intermittent connectivity problems using the Time Capsule and Windows 7 Professional. It seems that authentication breaks down every once in a while and you get the prompt for the password. There is no way to get past this that I have found, except to use the Airport Utility and perform a Device Reset on the Time Capsule. Fixes it every time – just annoying.
If you need a previous Time Capsule firmware version:
- Open AirPort Utility
- From the AirPort Utility menu, hold Control key in Windows XP and Vista) and choose Check for Updates….
- Select the specific firmware version you require.
- Click Download.
- Select your base station and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click on the AWD icon.
- Choose Base Station > Upload Firmware.
- Select a firmware version and click OK.
Here’s Apple’s official support page for the Time Capsule (Note: these are of course based on the Mac OS):
- Setting up Time Capsule for the first time
- Backing up with Time Capsule for the first time
- Time Capsule: initial backup is interrupted
- Restoring files from a backup
Here’s some other places you can go if your run into problems.
- Start by downloading the newest firmware: Firmware update 7.5.2
- Try Apple’s Support Forum for the Time Capsule.
- Review the Time Capsule User Manual.
- Go to an Apple store (find one Here) and talk to a Genius, or have anApple Expert call you. (Realize though that they will be Mac focused)
Centralized Windows Printing via the USB Port
Plug your printer USB cable into the USB port on the back of the Apple Time Capsule and you can now share that printer throughout your network. This means it is now available from all Windows computers.
Note: All-in-one or multifunction printer/scanner/fax will NOT work through the Time Capsule.
Instructions: (Step-by-Step instructions included with out eBook)
- Attach your printer to the USB port on the back of the Time Capsule
- Install Bonjour for Windows from the CD included with Time Capsule.
- Follow the onscreen instructions for connecting to your printer
Internet connection via the WAN Port
Time Capsule can become your router so that all attached computers can share the Internet connection.
Instructions:
- Connect your DSL or cable modem to the Ethernet WAN port on your Apple Time Capsule.
- Open AirPort Utility, select Time Capsule, and click Continue.
- On the Internet Tab, select DHCP
- Reboot the Time Capsule, then your Internet Modem if you have one.
Connect wired Windows PC’s
Connect any computers that do not have a wireless connection directly to the back of the Time Capsule, or attach a network switch to connect more than three. Your Apple Time Capsule has now become the central spoke of your Windows network.
