I just set up my new time capsule a couple weeks ago. My Time Machine did a back up or two no problem.
I also chose remember passwords in my key chain when I set it up.
Now all of sudden my time machine can't back up anymore, my Mac shows as not connected to the Time capsule and when I try to connect I can't/it doesn't let me.
As I said, it can't be the password as it was "remembered" and even when putting it in anew it doesn't work.

I am a total novice when it comes to Time Capsule and Mac stuff, so any help, explained in Layman's terms, would be SOOOOOO much appreciated!!!!
Thanks :)
 
I suppose you've tried rebooting the machine?

Do you have Airport Utility installed?

Try running and see if it can find the TC from the machine in question. If it can, then you can restart the TC if you haven't done it already.

Also try looking at the disk volumes in the Airport Utility program. See if the main TC disk shows up.
