I have a back up on my time capsule disk. However when I set the target disk mode on my iMac to my install DVD and open up disk utility, it does not show my time capsule disk (even though I am connected via ethernet from the time capsule right to the iMac).

How do I access my back up and get it to restore my system?

I tried typing in a URL address of my back up file (atp://na************.sparsebundle) but it said I need to authenticate but doesn't give me a chance to type any password in. It just says cancel or okay and then goes back to the start.

I tried changing the settings on my TC to set it up as just a external disk while disabling the wireless network. That didn't work either. Not sure what to do.
