Can I Change the Name of my iPhone?

I have an application on my iPhone, with an accompanying Desktop App, and to be able to sync the two, the iPhone name cannot have an apostrophe in it...and of course mine does. They say you can change the name in iTunes, but for the life of me I cannot find where.
Any kind soul lead me in the right direction? ;o)
Nick

Click on the name in the left-hand panel (under DEVICES) and re-type.

  • How can I change the name of item in TableViewController iOS

    How can I change the name of item in TableViewController? I want to be able to change the title of an item if I added one. Code:

    Hey JB001,
    Sounds like you have more going on than just a simple issue with Home Sharing and more dealing with Wi-Fi syncing. Start with the article below and see if that may resolve it.
    iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4062
    If it does not work out, then may I suggest contacting Apple for further assistance to walk you through it or just take that time that you were talking about to sort it out.

  • How can I change the name of a computer I'm getting rid of?

    How can I change the name of the computer to my granddaughter's name? It's now called "My name" G5 iMac. I would also like to delete that computer icon in my Devices on my MacbookPro.

    I guess my reply to these questions in your other topic did not help?
    The name of the computer is in System Preferences Sharing pane.
    If something appears under DEVICES in a Finder window sidebar, you can click hold on it and drag it off the sidebar. If it appears under SHARED, it should no longer appear there once if that iMac is no longer on your local network, or if you turn off its shared services in the Sharing pane.
