Cannot change login Name in Preferences
Login Name will not update. I need my edits to a document to come up with my name, not a former collegue.
Hi ElB7,
To change the author name of comments:
Open the Acrobat or Reader preferences and click the Commenting category.
Deselect Always Use Log-in Name for Author.
Create a comment.
Right-click the comment and choose Properties from the pop-up menu.
Change the Author name on the General tab to your name. Select Make Current Properties Default.
Click OK.
Please let us know if that did the trick!
Best,
Sara

Changing Login Name in Acrobat Reader
Is there an easy way to change your login name (the name reader uses as an author name when commenting)?
It is a pretty easy process in Pro, but my Reader uses need to change their author name as well
any help?Could you be alittle more specific. Because if I try to change the preference entry:
Preferences -> Identity -> Login Name
I will not change, it is locked down. What preference specifically are you changing? -
It used to be that the other apartment with the same name didn't have theirs password protected so even though only one or the other would show up, I could always get onto one. Now, they have password protected theirs and it seems to be that 100% of the time only theirs shows up which I only can tell because it says "invalid password" when I try to connect to the Internet.
I have asked my room mate to just change the name of the network but she is really slow to do anything about it and I need to be able to get the internet at home and the internet is in her and set up through her computer so I really don't have any way of being the one to just go in and fix it myself.
Is there any other way to make Airport recognize that there are two different networks with the same way so it will find mine? I feel like I have tried everything including mannually typing in the name of my network and typing my password and it still just says "invalid password." I have also double checked that I was typing in the correct password and I am. My room mate is not having any problems accessing the Internet so I know the problem is not with our connection (she also has a Mac, almost the same model as me, I have a MacBook Pro purchased in 2011). I am also able to connect to the Internet on my Mac at coffee shops and the library so I know that the problem is not my computer or my wireless connection so I'm pretty sure it is just that Airport is somehow only recognizing one of the two "WLAN" networks
Any help???!Hi - you can do what you want to do with AirPlay from your iPhone - but unfortunately it is not as easy as the people in the Apple store told you - your first problem is that you have a non Apple router - you cannot extend a non Apple router wirelessly with the Express - you can only join the network and connect an ethernet device to it - you can however connect via ethernet and have it create a wireless network of its' own - you can set this up from your iPhone or the XP - but this is a complicated setup and would involve many different discussion areas of this forum - therefore I would suggest that you use your 90 days of support and consult directly with Apple to do this - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

Cannot change short name of computer in Workgroup Manager
When a computer is bound to Open Directory on the client side I cannot change the short name of the computer. If the computer is added through Workgroup Manager I do not have this problem. When I try to change the name it reverts back to the old name and sometimes adds a .local at the end of it, but the new name I choose is displayed on the left side. When I log out and log back in the name on the left side reverts back to the old name.
Could it be the way I am naming the computers? I am using dept-username.location as a way to name all computers. Why does this problem only occur on computers that have been bound through the LDAPv3 service on the workstation?I can't comment for sure on this one; but my educated guess may be that you're causing problems with your DNS (or DHCP) by specifying an extra dot in the name - Although I can't say for certain as my OD doesn't run my DNS.
Try using dept-username-location.domain.local instead of dept-username.location.domain.local.
Have you checked the console output to see if any errors are being returned?

I would like to change my login name to something other than my computer's name. That name is not what I would like to appear as my author name for comments. I've tried reinstalling the program after changing my computer's name, hoping it would change the login name to the new computer name. That did not work. Why would a program restrict a user from changing the login name???? I'm very aggravated by this. Please, can someone help me reset or change my login name???
Sorry, what program, and what login name?
If you mean the Adobe.com login name, go to http://www.adobe.com/ and click on Sign-in. Next click on the pull-down on your user name and select My Information; you can change all your details there. -
Hi,
How do you go about changing your login name?

Cannot change graphics mode/Old preference pane
Just received my new Macbook Pro 2.53. Loaded up just great was able to use all the features, but after transferring all of my old data via ethernet I cannot change the graphics card mode! I no longer have the option to. I have the OLD 'Energy Saver' preference pane! I do not even have the larger graphics card under the system profiler.
Any ideas?
Running build 10.5.5 9F2114After a lengthy call with a rep at applecare, checking this, sending that. He had me remove the battery, unplug the wall outlet and hold the power button for 7 seconds. Popped the battery back in, plugged in the AC and it's back!
It wasn't so much I had an "old energy saver" pane, but rather the new one wasn't recognizing the 2nd video card. -

HELP! Suddenly cannot change file names..
Last night after a brief power cut I found, inevitably, I had lost a photoshop image I hadn't saved, but everything else seemed OK. To be sure I checked Disk Utility. The HD was OK but some odd issues appeared in permissions which I told to repair. This then said all OK.
Whether my present problem is related to the power cut or repairing permissions I don't know, but -
Now I cannot change file titles. If I click on an icon title to bring up the normally re-typeable title pane, and try, nothing happens. I'm stuck with the existing name. Is there a simple way of rectifying this?
Guidance please........

Zilla D.Hello Zilla,
By SAP methods, this is not possible. There is no way to do that. May you can suggest it on our Community of Innovation. See note 11.
This is not only your concern. Some customers already request this functionallity.

Run report from forms - Cannot change file name in report node
I am running a report (9i) from forms (9i) and I changed the name of the report in the filename field in the report node (in object navigator).
I noticed that I get the error FRM-41214 on the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT line when I run the form, if I've changed the filename from what it originally was. e.g. It was originally rep44.rdf and I changed it to rep55.rdf, but I get this error unless I keep the rep44.rdf filename. Why? Is there somewhere else I should change this filename?To view the reports queue open this URL:
http://<server>:<port>/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?server=<repserver>
Also, try running the report stand alone, not from Forms.
http://<server>:<port>/reports/rwservlet?server=<repserver>&report=rep55.rdf&userid=<un>/<pw>@<db>&destype=cache&desformat=PDF -

Changing Login Name and Password
Greetings,
I gave my MacBook Pro to my brother and would like to change the computer owner name, login and password so it comes up as his computer. Where and hos do I do this?
Also, I did a Software Update and was prompted for my user id and password. I would like to change all of these for him. Can I get some help here?
Thank you!The Computer Name is changed in Sharing preferences.
The owner's long name and account password can be changed in Accounts preferences.
To change the short or user name, however, requires an involved procedure. See the following article and use the last procedure called The Full Monty: Macworld | Changing the short username in Leopard. Alternatively, you can create a new admin user account for your brother with whatever long and short user name he desires. Then log into that new account and delete your old account. -
Just upgraded to Lion. In iCal I try to change name of calendar. I type in new name but it reverts to old name. I try to create new calendar with the name I tried to change the old one to, but after I type in the name and press return the new calendar is named "untitled".
BillBill,
Quit iCal, and try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Also go to the Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars Folder and remove any/all files with "Cache" as a part of the file name field.
To find the user Library, use Finder>Go>Depress the "Option" key>Library>Preferences. Drag the .plist file and Cache file(s) to your desktop, log out/in or restart and check iCal for any improvement.
If that does not work, are there any other clues about your setup that may be helpful?
