Question about
Does anyone backup a Windows machine to the Apple Time Capsule?
I'd like to do a wireless sync with Windows to the Time Capsule similar to Time Machine. I've yet to find one good straight forward method (other than just buying a mac).
You cannot use Time Machine to backup a Windows computer. You can however use an Apple Time Capsule (or any other NAS) as just a network drive and have your Windows machine back up to it using some other software. There is no point in buying an over priced Time Capsule to do this since there are many other much better NAS devices for cheaper, some of which also support Mac backup using Time Machine.
