Changing Name of Account with Bonjour

Hello all.
I've completed an extensive search of the forums but can't find a solution as yet.
My iChat application has me logged into my workplace's Bonjour network under an old name.
I'm trying to change the name from Mackintosh Lou to something else.
Does anyone have an idea where I can do this? I've had a go but it's time to hand it to those in the know.
Many thanks,
Lou.

  • How to change my iCloud account with only access to the Apple ID

    Hello everyone
    Im using my previous company ipad and i dont have access to the registered iCould account.
    How to change my icloud account to a new email account that i own.
    I have access to the Apple ID Account but i dont have access to the iCloud account in it.
    The Security Question was made by the tech admin of the company not by me, so not even that way its possible.
    Thank You in advance,
    Frederico

    I wish Apple improves this Security measures so that it lets remove features with both logins, Apple or iCloud credentials.
    Also the iCloud needs improvements, it should use the Apple ID not some other different login. The email part of icloud should be in iCloud but most people don't use iCloud mail so the rest of the features should be in the same email credentials as Apple ID.
    This way im not sure if i take the risk on Restoring the iPad, i could end up beeing locked out of my own device.
    All this hierarchic credentials are confusing. I would only need the Apple ID that is being used on the iPad to clean it up or turn off options like iCloud account currently on the device.

  • Changed name on account, services were changed without permission for more $$

    Hi, I'm trying to resolve a situation that has me baffled. I recently moved and had to sign up for new FiOS service at my new apartment last week (I had FiOS at my old apartment, but couldn't just transfer my services because Verizon didn't offer those plans anymore, so I signed up for a new triple play bundle for the new apartment). Everything was installed and I was up and running on Thursday. Good stuff. Fast forward to today, when I realized that the last name on my account needed to be changed, so I called this morning to change the last name. I then get an email from Verizon saying that my new plan would be $10 extra a month, and that I would now be looking at a $250 bill come August (versus the original $172 I was quoted for August) because I changed my last name. Huh? It turns out the representative I talked to this morning changed my internet from 50/50 to 75/75 without my permission for an extra $10 a month. I later discovered that when you change your name on your Verizon account, Verizon considers this to be an act of signing up for a new plan, which the representative never disclosed to me during our conversation. Had I known this, I would never agreed to change the name and just left it as it was. But now it's too late, and I've been signed up for a more expensive monthly plan that I didn't agree to. What's worse, no one can explain to me why I'm looking at a $250 bill for August. If the bump up to 75/75 internet (which I didn't authorize in the first place, but okay fine, let's say I accept the unauthorized change) was an extra $10 a month, the prorated amount should not have changed the expected bill in August from $172 to $250. Something is very wrong here and things do not add up. I have called back twice now and gotten nowhere with the people I spoke with. Is there any other avenue I can take to get answers to what is wrong here?  Thanks in advance.

  • Getting divorced want to change name on accounts, email, etc

    Getting divorced and want to change my name to reflect my maiden name on my apple ID, email address, iCloud, etc. Currently my Apple ID and email is [email protected]; want to change it to [email protected] I understand I might need to create a new account, but having trouble finding step by step instruction to do this without loosing data, calendar, music, etc. I use iCloud heavily for syncing across multiple devices, so I am very concerned that doing this is going to mess things up. Please help. Thanks.

    You are correct that to get a new iCloud email address (without creating an alias address) you will have to create a new iCloud account. 
    To migrate to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  If you are syncing iWork (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) documentes with iCloud, back them up to iTunes (see https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3542). 
    Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password when prompted (if using iOS 7).  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.  When you turn on Mail you will choose your new @icloud.com email address (type carefully as once created this cannot be changed).  You will then have to recreate any notes in your new account by from the emails you sent earlier.
    If you have multiple devices, you will only have to migrate the data on one device.  Once the data is in your new account, on your other devices just save any photo stream photos to your camera roll, delete the account, choose Delete from My iDevice and provide the password when prompted, then sign back in with your new account ID and your data will sync to the device.
    Music, apps and other media purchased from the iTunes and App Store is permanently tied to the ID used to purchase it originally and cannot be moved to a different ID.

  • HT1689 I changed my Apple Account ID on an authorized PC and have made several downloads using the new ID. However when I tried to access my account using my iPad, the pop-up still carry's the old ID. Ow do I synchronize the changes on my account with hte

    Please help with information on how to change the account ID on the pop-up log on request page on my iPad? I changed my account ID in the iTunes Store using my authorized PC. Renewing subscriptions directly from my device may prove impossible if I cannot acces my apple account on my device except through my PC. What do I do to harmonize the new name on my PC and on the iPad?

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.

  • Add joint name / change name on account

    Hi all
    Our BT line is currently in my fiancee's name. I was wondering if it is possible to add myself onto the account as a joint name or to change the account into my name. Simple reason is that I organise the bills etc. in the household and I am the one who tends to ring up companies to sort things out. We currently have paperless billing and these come to my email address.  
    If not possible, when we are married, will my fiancee be able to change her maiden name to married name on the account (when married would this be easier to add me onto the account?)
    Many thanks

    Our BT account is in my wife's name, but I handle virtually all contact with BT (including fault reporting and ordering by phone) with no problem. I just say that my wife is the account holder and has authorised me to act.

  • Hi Apple support, my name is Derek Turner and I have been hacked through a friend's email account and I wish to know if 1. I can clean my email list of names and account with software and 2. How is it possible to delete emails that are still coming back

    Hi! My name is Derek Turner and I have been hacked through a friend's email message to me which I opened unsuspecting any danger.  Initially, he sent me an 'attention' or warning email with a link which I tried to open but it could not be opened, so I left it not knowing what it was all about at the time.  Later, I received another email from him (probably the hacker) and opened a 'not very pleasant' web site.  It did not twig with me at the time as I am a bit new to this type of thing but when I mentioned it to my wife she immediately said that I had been 'hacked'.  By this time it was too late, and it infected all my email addresses!  I would be grateful if you may know if there is software that I can use to clean up my email account and if there is anything for iPad minis that can prevent this happening in future? (Malware, Firewall?).  I am also getting emails back that relate to the hacker and I cannot 'delete' them from my iPad, only on my PC!  Any suggestions?
    Thank you for your time regarding this matter,
    Derek Turner,( a very new iPad mini user!)

    Hi,
    I don't think that can be solved by any advice the regular posters could post here.
    I would go back to Apple and explain the situation (again).
    I would also consider closing the account (Apple rarely seem to do this as accounts are never deleted but just closed).
    I understand this may cause issues for things purchased in iTunes and the App Store which my include Restoring the OS at some point.

  • Changing iTunes Store accounts with Automatic Downloads

    I use my Mac Mini at home as my media server/HTPC, and contains my iTunes library.  I want to copy all my music to my MacBook Air for work, as my internet at work is too slow for iTunes Match to work effectively.  Therefore, I was going to set Automatic Downloads for music on both Macs so that they would stay in sync.
    However, I have both an Australian iTunes store account and an old UK one, which I still use to download BBC TV programmes from.  According to the Apple KB though:
    "Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days."
    Does this mean that I can't change the store from AU to UK for 90 days?  Or is the Apple ID you use in the store different to the device's Apple ID?

    I'm having this problem too (except with from Japan to US)! Did you ever get a solution? I don' want to create a new account because I want to keep all of my purchases.

  • Re: Add joint name / change name on account

    I have the same problem. I have nothing positive to say about BT. They are a nightmare to get hold of and even more difficult to get a problem resolved. Whenever we have a BT email or telephone fault inevitably it's when i am away from home and BT won't speak to my wife. I have tried all the BT web sites to get an Answer, I just find the sites to be completely user unfriendly.

    Our BT account is in my wife's name, but I handle virtually all contact with BT (including fault reporting and ordering by phone) with no problem. I just say that my wife is the account holder and has authorised me to act.
