Changing the iPhone name

my sales rep did the initial itunes setup for my 3G but put in his own iPhone name. How do i now change it? i've looked in itunes but can't see how to change the name.
thanks in advance.

With the iPhone connected, click on it's current name in the source list. Click it again & change it to your desired name.
Cheers!

I have a MacBook Pro, how to change the computer name in the "Find Iphone"?

Thank you for help! I was inattentive reading your answer. The thing which confused me was that I noted in blue. I had to just write in a red box and close the configuration window.

is it possible to send me a new receipt?
thank you.

Contact your Carrier Telco. If you are wanting to change the name on the purchase receipt then that cannot be done. Only a thief would attempt that, so I hope that is not what you are suggesting

You can create up to 3 alias addresses but you have to do this on icloud.com from your computer browser. This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622. Also, incoming email to an alias address will go to your current iCloud inbox so it really isn't a separate account; just a different email address for the same account.
Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account. If you really want to set up another, you would need to add a secondary iCloud account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then entering a different Apple ID to create the account. You can then turn on Mail to create the new account. Mail in secondary accounts, however, is fetch email, not push (which is only supported in the primary account).

If the size of the iPhone backup is putting you over the edge you have bigger problems than just this backup. You really need to solve the fundamental problem of your C: partition being too small. Even if you could solve the iPhone problem something else will come up soon that will again challenge your disk space. New drives can be had for well under $100, and even a 500 GB drive is only a little more than $100. This would be a good time to upgrade. You can even clone your current drive AND increase the partition size in one step with disk imaging software such as Acronis True Image.

CANT CHANGE THE ICLOUD NAME ON MY IPHONE

HOW DO I CHANGE THE ICLOUD NAME ON MY IPHONE 5C IF I DONT HAVE THE PASSWORD FOR THE OLD ONE

Temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How can I change the account name in iCloud. My email has changed and I want to change it on iCloud.

How can I change the account name in iCloud. My email has changed and I want to change it on iCloud.

To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account. To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
To change the ID on your Mac, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, choose Delete for all the prompts (your data will still be in iCloud), then sign back in with the changed ID.

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.

my Apple ID used to have my Dad's name because of the billing issues.. now is changed again to have my name, but i keep seeing that my account on icloud.com still says my dad's name, so if i try to send an email through there it says my dad's name and my email address instead of my name...
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?)
thank you,

How can I change the "short name" of my account?

I want to change the short name of my account because when my dad bought this computer for me he set up the account with his name as the short name and it has been bothering me ever since.
When I go to system preferences and then accounts my account is listed and when I click on it under password I am able to change my name, but not my short name because it is greyed out and cannot be clicked. Is there any way to change the short name on my account? I can't even delete my account and make a new one because the account delete button is greyed out when I click on my account.
Also, I went to my home folder and changed that from my dad's name to my name. This has reset every program on my computer to default settings! For example when I open my Safari browser a message pops up saying a keychain cannot be found to store Safari and asks me if I want to restore default settings.
So pretty much I've tried to change the short name on my administrative account, I reset everything to default settings and my short name is still my father's name. Can anyone help me out here?

Try this.
Or you could just create a new account and delete the old one.

How to change the default name of new adjustment layers? (and other Q's)

Where can I find documentation on Photoshop's API? (I want o make tools for it - javascript)

Forgive me for not looking into your Maya-specific links, but one can automate Photoshop using JavaScript indeed (on Windows also VB, on Mac also AppleScript).
Not everything can be automated naturally, but a lot – and it can really speed up many tasks; and with the »small« repetitive ones like saving copies off of files etc. combining Scripts with Configurator Panels can be especially convenient.

As for plugins: it's something I would like to learn some day (I guess you would have to go with Flash and AS3 for making actual plugins)
I think you might also have to learn C++ or C.

Script : how to change the Field name in standard program(ZM_MEDRUCK)

Hi Experts,
I am working with SAP SCRIPT. i need to change the Field Name that is PO NO to Document No & PO DATE to Document Date.
These are assigned in data declaration as gv_name and gv_date.
Can anyone help me to change this Fields.
Regards,
Vijayan.R

Hi,
You can archive this by making change in SAP script only. You don't need to touch the standard prgm.
Debug the script and find it out which fields (In script editor) are printing these text on layout... then just replace them by creating your own text...
You can create a text in TTDTG table,, like ZZPO_NAME = ( Document Name),, and use this filed in the script editor.
&ZZPO_NAME&

How to Change the iPod "name"

Well friends,
I posted a msg and got an answer that my wife claims doesn't work. Short story - I am new to iPod. Never touched one before. Bought one for wife in Iraq. Loaded music and shipped it in 24 hours. Well, somewhere in the process I "changed the iPod name" to her Name and Rank - go figure, she's in the Army. Well, I am the devil and she can't figure out the name change (to her first name only). I received the following steps that she claims to have followed. Can some one please look at their pod and help me?
To change the name of the iPod, you must connect it to a computer with iTunes installed. If you have Windows, follow these instructions: Once connected, start iTunes and follow these instructions:
1. Once the iPod appears in the Playlist tree to the left, Single-click on the name of the iPod.
2. In a second or two, a text box will appear around the name.
3. Enter the new name.
4. Click anywhere else in the iTunes window.
5. The iPod will be renamed. (this may take a few seconds)
Sincerely,
Suffering Husband
aka The Devil for Naming her iPod
60 GB iPod Windows XP

You could also try selecting the iPod in iTunes (in the source pane on the left) and then click F2 on the keyboard. You should be able to rename it there.
Also, if the iPod is updating new songs an all (and blinking red in iTunes) it might now work right away. You can try again later in the updating process.

How to change the administrator name

I have tried to change the administrator name on a Macbook pro that I recently sold. I used the following:
Rebooted and held the command and s button, pressed enter and ended up with the following at the prompt: bash-3.2#.
I was trying to get to the root directory in order to continue with:
mount uw /
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
shutdown -h now
I saw a video that said this would allow the new user to start fresh and type in his information however the
bash-3.2# does not allow me to

When you reinstall the OSX, you can change not only the password but the administrator as well.
Ciao.
