So, my friend just received her 27" iMac and I went to help her to set it up as it's her first Mac. We ran into a problem with 1TB Time Capsule which she bought as well. I installed the software which came with the TC and after that powered TC up (only power cord, no Internet/Ethernet yet) and the iMac found it. I set the settings but then had to move the TC so that it could be plugged into the router. Plugged it in but now the iMac can't see it anymore. I've tried moving it near the iMac and doing the same as I did first (only power cord plugged, 10cm from iMac) but it still can't be seen or used. TC just keeps flashing the yellow light, no matter where I plug it.

Any help how to e.g. reset it or solve the problem?
