Hi, Yes, the Sidebar is the starting point, but not enough information was given here. From within the Sidebar, you should be able to see the Extreme along with a Connect button. Depending on how you set up your connection method from within the Airport Utility, it may require a Disk password, or a username and password. Enter the credentials after pressing the "Connect" button. If the credentials are accepted, then the two partitions should be presented at which time you can connect to whichever you wish. If you wish, after the connection is established, you can go into System Prefs, Users & Groups, Login Items, and set this to mount automatically whenever you log into your user account. This is only useful though, if you're not using a laptop. The laptop would likely try to access the drive when you're not in your home network. Actually, there are ways of disputing this. It's not the most secure method around, but it is possible to set up the drive to be accessible via the WAN which would allow you to connect from anywhere you have an Internet connection. You would need to use the external IP address to make the initial connection though instead of your internal Home network IP.
Hope this makes sense. I'll have more time beginning on Thursday as I'm in the midst of other things right now. Later...

I have an Airport extreme here to which i have connected a harddisk. THe harddisk has two partitions of which one is a time machine backup parttition and the other one is meant to be some kind of cloud service. But the partition does not show up in Finder even though i have turned file sharing on in the Airport utility. I have many questions about this but the first one is how to make the partition which should act as a cloud service to be shown up in finder? Thanks in advance for all help. /A -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
