Change of Icon name

How can change icon name for project in iphone,
I tried changing bundle name in xcode that change reflects in simulator but not in iphone,if any body has a idea
<Post Relocated by Moderator>

When I needed to change my product name from "MyApp" to "MyApp Lite" I read several threads here, obtaining one or two pieces of the puzzle from each. Here are the steps that finally worked for me:
To rename an Xcode project and its product:
1) Rename project folder
2) Rename .xcodeproj file
3) *Delete Build folder
4) Project->Edit Active Target->General: Edit Name
5) Project->Edit Active Target->Build->Packaging: Edit 'Product Name'
6) *Project->Edit Active Target->Build->Language: Edit 'Prefix Header'
7) Repeat 5-6 for all configurations (Debug, Release, Distribution)
8) *Rename _Prefix.pch file
9) Build->Clean All Targets for all configurations
The starred steps may not be necessary, but I'm reporting the exact procedure I logged just to be sure. I think you can also omit the repeats in step 7 by following iphonemediaman's advice to select "All Configurations".
Note that the above changes your PRODUCT_NAME definition, which may change your App ID. So if you intend to submit your renamed project as an update, you may need to reset the Bundle identifier in info.plist. I.e., if this field includes the default '${PRODUCT_NAME:identifier}',
replace that portion of the id with the previous project name to build an update:
10) Edit 'Bundle identifier' in info.plist: com.MyCompany.OldName
Finally, if your new project name includes spaces, these must be removed in two places:
11) Remove any spaces from 'Bundle identifier' in info.plist
12) Remove any spaces in the name of the zip file you upload to the store

To change the icon name displayed by default while an ALV is displayed.

Hi Experts ,
Need to change the icon name EXPORT displayed by default , while an ALV is displayed to Download to Excel.
How can this be achieved?

You can copy the Status 'Standard' of the program 'SAPLKKBL' and create a Z. Change the icon name in the Z pf-status as wished. Now in the event slis_ev_pf_status_set of 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' set the PF-Status to the Z that u created.

Dynamically change icon name of push button

Hi,
I would like to ask how to dynamically change the icon name attribute of a push button in dialog programming. What is the syntax for assigning an icon name during runtime?
I am currently doing a multiple selection function for KNA1-KUNNR.
Initially, the icon name is ICON_ENTER_MORE. When the user picks up more than one customer, it should automatically change to ICON_DISPLAY_MORE. How can I do this?
here's the code i currently have:
DESCRIBE TABLE kunnr_ran LINES l_kunnr.
IF l_kunnr > 1.
      g_add_multiple = 'X'.
BT_MULT_CUST-icon_name = 'ICON_DISPLAY_MORE'.
ELSEIF l_kunnr = 1.
     CLEAR g_add_multiple.
BT_MULT_CUST-icon_name = 'ICON_ENTER_MORE'.
ENDIF.
The name of my pushbutton is BT_MULT_CUST.
The code in ** is not correct. I don't know the syntax in SAP. But that is how it is done in VB for example.
Thank you.
che =)

If you have not found your answer already, please try the following:
1) In screen layout painter: for the pushbutton in question (i.e. pb_multi_select), mark the "Output field" on the program attributes tab in the attributes window for the pushbutton. Make sure that its visible length is at least 2 too. This will "gray out" the "Text" and other fields.
2) In the TOP INCLUDE of the module program: add a variable for the pushbutton that is of type "icons-text" and don't forget to include <icons>. Below is an example
INCLUDE <icon>
DATA: pb_multi_select TYPE icons-text.
3) In a module called in the PBO modules for the screen that needs its button changed, call the function "ICON_CREATE" and pass at minimum the name of the icon and the field that you specified in step 2. Below is an example using the icon "ICON_DISPLAY_MORE", "ICON_ENTER_MORE", and a flag variable "MULTI_SEL_INFO_EXISTS" that indicates if any multiple selection information has already been entered. It would be set by the program (not automatically, but by coding) prior to the "IF" statement:
IF multi_sel_info_exists = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION 'ICON_CREATE'
      EXPORTING
         name = 'ICON_DISPLAY_MORE'
      IMPORTING
         result = pb_multi_select.
ELSE.
CALL FUNCTION 'ICON_CREATE'
      EXPORTING
         name = 'ICON_ENTER_MORE'
      IMPORTING
         result = pb_multi_select.
ENDIF.
You can change the button as you see fit with multiple different calls inside of "IF" or "CASE" statements. Please see documentation for "ICON_CREATE" for other parameters.
Hope this helps,
Brian

Icon name in ios?

The app name and icon name are two different names on the ios. Plants Vs. Zombies shows up as pvz on the icon name. How does one accomplish changing the icon name without changing the application name?

Hi dissipation:
I think You are talking about the name of the application on iOS home screen against the name of application in the Recently used apps bar (The bar that comes on pressing the home button twice).
I think, AIR doesn allow mentioning the short names. There is an ugly workaround if you have a mac. You can modifiy the info.plist to add "CFBundleName" key (Or replace it with the short value as you want.) and the re-codesign the application. (See more info here)
For More info on how you can modify info.plist and recodesign on mac. You can see this tutorial. (In the step 4 you can add/replace key/values in info.plist)
EDIT: I am still not sure about the question. Are you asking that the name of the application on iTunes store is different than what you see on the phone? (Those two names have no relation. iTunes Store name is selected/provided on iTunes Portal itself whereas the name of the application that shows up on device is is given in Info.plist/app-xml for AIR)

sbhave

Need some help changing the Home icon name in Lion

OK, I want to change the home icon name in Lion, I've been following these instructions to enable root user, BUT
How to enable the root user
OS X Lion
From the Apple menu choose System Preferences....
From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
Click the lock and authenticate as an administrator account.
Click Login Options....
Click the "Edit..." or "Join..." button at the bottom right.
Click the "Open Directory Utility..." button.
Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.
After I get to step 6, the director utility opens... the lock is already unlocked, I click it and it locks, click it again, enter my admin password... but there is no option to "Enable Root User" I only see a list of services "Active Directory", "LDAPv3" & "NIS". I'm lost, and I don't want to screw anything up here! Thanks for the help!
Dan O

You're looking in the wrong place. After you click the padlock, forget about that window and go to the menubar, top of your screen where it says
Directory Utility | File | Edit | Help
From the Edit menu choose 'enable root user'

How do I change the user name that appears next to the House icon on the Finder Window?

I'm giving my old iMac to my father-in-law and would like to change the user name from mine to his.
I've edited my Account info and changed it to his, but this does not seem to change the name in the finder window.
Many thanks.

Create a new administrator account.

I have the Answer on how to Change the House Icon name

You go on to
System Preferences > Acounts > Then unlock the security settings
Right Click on your Account Name
Click Advanced Options
Then simply Change the Account Name there.
Save it and you are done.
An easy way to change the name of your Main Folder - the one that looks like a House!

The problem with this, is some applications use the username to judge where they are installed. For those, changing the account name may disable certain DRM for those applications. This tip of yours would probably be best posted to the operating system you've tested it on forum, and not the iMac PPC forum, as that's just for one machine, and not every machine that has that operating system.

Is there a way to change the icon associated with icloud account?

Is there a way to change the icon associated with my iCloud account? It's currently a rose and i do not like it.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Are you referring to your iCloud account picture or your user picture?
It looks like you are referring to your user picture. To change it, open System Preferences > Users & Groups, press the picture box and choose the user picture you want from the ones that came by default. If you want to select a different picture stored on your Mac, drag that photo onto the picture box.
If you want to change your iCloud account picture, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. Then, press your name at the top right of the site and press the user picture. If you put the cursor on the picture box, you will see a button at the top of the box to change your picture

How can I change the "Full Name" for my iCloud account?

Hello,
At some point in the past, iCloud started identifying me as someone else when I send emails. This incorrect name appears to be the "Full Name" setting of the email account, but when modifying the properties for the email account in Mail the field for modifying the "Full Name" setting is disabled, not allowing me to make any changes.
Where is the correct place to change the "Full Name" setting for my iCloud account?
Thanks,
- Josh
<Email Edited By Host>

I believe it can be changed by going to https://appleid.apple.com/, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in with your iCloud ID, select "Name, ID and Email Addresses", then click "Edit" next to the name listed under "Your Name" and change it as desired.
Also, if you are trying to change the sender name for your iCloud email account, you'll want to go to icloud.com, sign into your account, open Mail, click the gear shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, go to the Accounts tab and enter the name you want to use in the Full Name field and click Done. Then quit Mail (Command-Q) on your Mac and re-open it. Your new From name should now appear in the drop-down list when you compose a new email.

how can i change the name that appears linked to my icloud account? (note that as i already sayd my Apple ID has my name now, i jsut want to know why is not my name in my icloud account?)

I believe it can be changed by going to https://appleid.apple.com/, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in with your iCloud ID, select "Name, ID and Email Addresses", then click "Edit" next to the name listed under "Your Name" and change it as desired.

Changing a document name opens the file

I was wondering if this was a new issue with Leopard... or just my mouse. In Tiger, if you needed to change the name of a file, or folder on the desktop... or anywhere, you could click, and it would highlight the words to change the name.
Now, if you click the first time, nothing happens, when clicking a second time, it either opens the folder, or launches the application. I don't particularly like this happening, especially when I'm just trying to change the file name.
I am using a MacAlly rfmousejr.

In my opinion, the behaviour in "Panther" and earlier was even better - you could click once on the file name, and shift the mouse pointer outside of the name area, and it would highlight. Unfortunately, Tiger made (more or less) two clicks necessary throughout the "Finder", probably to make the behaviour more consistent with "Column" view. Normally, I am in favour of GUI consistency, but unfortunately they settled on the worse convention, applying it to an area where the interaction is different enought that imposing consistency actually made things worse.
In Leopard, the issue doesn't appear entirely to be one of timing. Although it may be awkward, try selecting the icon first, then clicking the file name (I just tested this with the "double-click" setting set to the slowest). This almost never results in the file opening, whereas clicking twice (with the same delay between clicks) on the name did. Similarly, if the icon is selected by alternative means (marqueé selection, by typing the first few letters of the name, or using arrow keys), then clicking once on the item's name also activates the text field.

Change .pdf icons to generic icon instead of preview image

How can I change the icon of a .pdf on the desktop to the more generic red and white Adobe logo instead of the little preview picture? With the old-style icon it's easy to determine what's a .pdf - with everything a little preview now (which is too small to tell anything, at least for me) I have to actually read the file name to see what type of file it is.
Not the end of the world but it would be nice to change.
thanks

What app do you want your PDF files to open with when they are double-clicked?
If you click on the Desktop, type Command-J, and in the Desktop's view-options window uncheck the box for "Show icon preview," you will convert all the Desktop icons to whatever image the default "Open with" app has provided. If you have set Adobe Reader as the default app for PDF files, the icon will look like this:
!http://i55.tinypic.com/2r4hf6p.jpg!
If you have set Preview as the default app, the icon will look like this:
!http://i51.tinypic.com/264noea.jpg!
I don't know of an automatic way to have PDF files display an Adobe icon and still have them open in Preview when double-clicked.

Changing the home name

I just bought a powermac g5 off my friend and the main user account is under my name but the home icon is still in his name and most of the computer information has his name on it. I don't want to re do the whole computer because it has a lot of programs on it that i don't want to get rid of. How do I change the home name on the computer.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Be sure your friend follows this procedure*:

Changing a folder name

I need to change my folder name with the home icon.. this can be changed by the user icon..... but when i change it it says i might lose information.... could someone please help

Here it is again but I didn't do anything different, and it works for Rudegar. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1428
Here's a copy and paste in case you still can get to it:
OS X: How to change user account name or home directory name
Summary Learn how to change your user account name and home directory name (which should match) by using the advanced procedure described below.
Products Affected
Mac OS X 10.4, Mac OS X 10.5, Mac OS X 10.6, OS X Lion, Mac OS X 10.0, Mac OS X 10.1, Mac OS X 10.2, Mac OS X 10.3, Mac OS X 10.4
About the account name
Each user in Mac OS X has a "Full Name" (referred to as "Name" in Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) and an "Account name" (referred to as "Short Name" in Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) as defined in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences (referred to as Accounts pane or Users pane in Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier). The account name can contain up to 255 lowercase characters with no spaces. This is the name used to create a user's home directory (also known as the user's Home or Home folder) in the Users folder. Once the user has been created, the account name (or short name) cannot be changed in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences.
Changing the account name
Though there are other methods by which an advanced user may change the short name and related information, the easier and safer workaround is described below.
Before following these steps, you may wish to back up your important data.
For Mac OS X v10.5 or later
Enable the root user.
Log in as root.
Navigate to the /Users folder.
Select the Home folder with the short name you want to change, and rename it just like you would rename any folder. Keep in mind that the shortname must be all lowercase, with no spaces, and only contain letters.
Use the Users & Groups pane (Accounts pane in Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier) in System Preferences to create a new user with the Account name or Short Name that you used in the previous step.
Click OK when "A folder in the Users folder already has the name 'account name'. Would you like to use that folder as the Home folder for this user account?" appears. Note: This will correct the ownership of all files in the Home folder, and avoid permissions issues with the contents.
Choose Log Out from the Apple menu.
Log in as the newly created user. You should be able to access all of your original files (on the desktop, in Documents, and in the other folders of this Home).
After verifying that your data is as expected, you can delete the original user account via the Users & Groups pane (Accounts pane in Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier).
Disable the root user.
For Mac OS X v10.4.11 and earlier
Optional step: As a precaution, you may disable automatic login prior to performing this procedure. You might want to back up important data, too. In the event that you restart the computer for any reason before completing the procedure, this would prevent complications from having displaced the user selected for automatic login. (For Mac OS X v10.1.5 or earlier, automatic login is found in the Login preference pane. For Mac OS X v10.2 and v10.3, it is found in the Accounts preference pane.)
Mac OS X v10.3 or later: If FileVault is enabled, temporarily turn it off, which will log you out.
Enable the root user and log in as root.
For Mac OS X v10.2 or later: Open the Accounts pane of System Preferences.
For Mac OS X v10.1.5 or earlier: Open the Users pane of System Preferences.
In the Name list, locate the user account with the short name that you want to replace. This will be referred to as the "original user".
Note whether or not the original user is identified as an administrator, which appears in the Kind column to the right.
Click New User. For Mac OS X v10.3 or later, this is the plus button.
Complete the Name and Short Name fields as desired. Be sure that the Short Name is exactly as you want it to appear.
For Mac OS X v10.2: Fill in the New Password and Verify fields.
For Mac OS X v10.1.5. or earlier: Click the password tab, then fill in the Password and Verify fields.
If the user you are replacing is an Admin user, then select the checkbox for "Allow user to administer this computer". For Mac OS X 10.3, click the Security tab to locate this setting.
Note: This checkbox is dimmed and already selected if there is not another Admin user. Mac OS X requires at least one Admin user.
Click Save. (Skip this step for Mac OS X v10.3.)
Quit System Preferences.
Click the Finder icon in the Dock.
Choose Computer from the Go menu.
Open the Users folder in the Mac OS X disk.
Open the folder with the short name of the new user that you just created.
Drag the contents of this folder to the Trash.
Important: Do not empty the Trash yet. In the event that you accidentally move contents of the wrong folder, you may recover them from the Trash after discovering your mistake.
Choose New Finder Window from the File menu. Be sure to position the new window so that you can see both Finder windows.
In the new window, open the folder of the original user.
Press the Option key as you drag the contents of the original user's folder into the new user's folder (that you emptied in Step 16). This makes a copy of the contents.
Close one of the Finder windows.
Open the Terminal application (located at /Applications/Utilities/).
Type: chown -R <new_name> /Users/<new_name>
Important: Replace "<new_name>" with the actual short name of the new user you just created. For example, if the new user had the short name "jacques", you would type:
chown -R jacques /Users/jacques
Press Return
Quit Terminal.
Choose Log Out from the Apple menu.
Log in as the new user. You should be able to access all of your original files on the desktop and in the folders of the Home directory.
Important: If you do not have access to your original items, log out and log back in as root, then repeat Step 22. Also, be sure that you did not place the wrong files in the Trash in Step 16.
Choose Home from the Go menu.
Open the Library folder, then the Keychains folder inside it.
Select the keychain, which should still have the short name of the original user.
Choose Show Info from the File menu.
In the Info window that appears, choose Name & Extension from the pop-up menu.
Change the name to match the new user's short name.
Close the Info window.
Open the Keychain Access application, located in the Utilities folder.
From the Edit menu, choose "<new_name> Settings". For the user Jacques, this would appear as: "jacques Settings".
Click Change Passphrase.
Enter the desired password, then click OK. You may use the same password again or set it to match the login password of the new user.
Note: This step prevents you from discovering later that the keychain had retained an older password.
Quit Keychain Access.
Disable the root user.
If everything is working correctly, you do not need to log back in as root to empty the Trash. The folders you put there occupy a negligible amount of disk space.
Depending on what software you have installed, you may wish to rename other files and folders that may have been created under the original user short name to match the new user short name.
Once you are certain that everything is working properly, you may want to delete the Home directory (folder) of the original user, which should be empty. For instructions on how to do this, see this article.
Additional Information Note: Although you can change your Home name in Mac OS X v10.3 or later, you usually shouldn't.

Changing a aritist name in "Quick Browse itunes library"

I've moved a music folder from my old itunes (6.1 ver OSX 10. 2.8) into my new computer (OSX 10.4.8) itunes music folder. One of music folder has different artists but the folder is named Compliation. I CAN NOT get the name of the artist to show up in the Quick Browse itune Library ( "eye icon" on the bottom of itunes) . I can change the name of the artist just fine and it show up under the artist list in normal view, but not in the " Quick Browse in the iturnes library ,(eye i con) . I tried to rename the folder with the artist but that doesnt change the artist name in the Quick Browse ? it still shows up as Compliation. Is the music already encrypted? or what. Only only thing I didnt do is to durn a cd with the artist name and re imported. Seem alot of trouble to change a name.

Those songs have 'part of compilation' turned on, and you have 'group compilations when browsing' turned on in your preferences. Either turn that preference off, or select the songs, choose Get Info from the File menu and change the setting so they are not part of a compilation.
