How to recover the backup data from airport time capsule?

AirPort Time Capsule is designed to partner seamlessly with Time Machine in OS X Leopard or later to protect your data. It works with Time Machine in OS X to back up your Mac automatically and wirelessly, so you never have to worry about losing anything important again. Every photo. Every file. Every song. Even your apps and OS X settings are saved.

But when I backup the Airport Time Capsule (ATC) to an external USB HDD/SSD hard drive, I lost all data while traveling. How do I restore those lost files from my AirPort Time Capsule? Is any data recovery software can recover them?

As Time Capsule can only be accessed over a network, and all data recovery software works on data storage devices that can be connected physically to a computer. So we need take the hard drive out of your Time Capsule and connect it to your Mac computer via a USB/FireWire casing. We do not recommend opening of the Time Capsule, as you have a possible, and not certain, chance of recovering the data. But if data matters the most to you, it’s worth taking a chance.

Now we use Fireebok Data Recovery software to recover the data from the whole hard drive, here are the detailed steps.

1. Download and run Fireebok Data Recovery.
