Hi again, with further reading on this it might be due to a bug in the OS Sierra (10.13.4) I am running to do with Auto mount of the TC. Once I set the connection to “Peter Crisp” the TC shows as mounted in the Finder (little upward pointing triangle), but the frustration is that the next time I open a new Finder window, I have to re-enter my password to reset the connection to “Peter …”. Each time I tick the remember in Keychain option but it seems to not remember it.
I suspect the others in the house don’t have this issue as they’re all lagging behind in their OSX update status and the more recent updates are where this has arisen. Regards Pete. > On 17 Apr 2018, at 7:57 pm, Peter Crisp <[email protected]> wrote: > > I have just last night realised that my connection to my Time Capsule in my > house has me connected as “Guest”.
