[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1529467, member: 131855"] I think I have seen a way to do this but it would be time consuming and a pain in the rear IMHO. I think it involved the following process. 1. Create initial Time Machine backup with an external hard drive -copy occurs at the fastest USB speed the drive supports. 2. Create sparsebundle file on the Time Capsule making sure it is expandable. 3. Copy entire folder from the backup created ins step one to the sparse bundle. In the OPs case this is probably more time consuming than letting the initial process occur wirelessly. Only time I have read of this being used is when someone was moving an existing Time Machine backup to a Time Capsule or other network drove. [/QUOTE]
