  • TS3376 itunes device name is different to same device name on find my iphone

    I have a device on itunes which is named correctly.But when I look it up on "Find My Iphone" the device has a different name.To make matters more confusing it has the same name as another device owned by my daughter.How do I get the device name on "Find My Iphone" to match the device name on itunes?
    Many thanks. 

    Check Settings>General>About>Name on your phone.  That is the name that should be identified in Find My iPhone when you sign into your account on icloud.com.  If it's wrong, try turn off Find My iPhone on your device, then turn it back on after a few seconds.

  • Device Names in Finder for TrueCrypt Volumes

    When using TrurCrypt, all mounted volumes show up in Finder (under Devices) as NONAME even though different mount points are specified in TrueCrypt while mounting them. Is there a way to see the mount point names in the Devices list?

    Figured out a way to fix it - maybe it's a trivial thing. Right click on the NONAME, click Get Info and change the name in resultant dialog. This name is remembered even if I dismount the volume in TrueCrypt and then remount it.

  • How can I sync my photo contents in iPhoto on my iMac to my new iPAD's iPhoto?  I follwed all the instructions on manuals for both iPAD and iTunes re syncing, but I cannot find "phone button" under Device name on iTunes page. Please help!  Thanks!

    I follwed all the instructions on manuals for both iPAD and iTunes re syncing, but after physically connecting iPAD with iMac with USB or via WiFi I still cannot find "phone button" under Device name on iTunes page. Please help!  Thanks!
    I have been creating a photo book using a lots of photographs on iPhoto, and then I took another photos by using new iPAD which I want to integrate with the original album/book on iMac. I was able to import them from iPAD's iPhoto to iMac's iPhoto.  However I cannot import or transfer or sync anything from iMac's iPhoto to that of my iPAD. 
    So my iPhoto page on iPAD contains only 3 or 4 newly created albums, and no other info.  That means no syncing....
    I am supposed to be able to work on this project on either of these iPAD and iMac, correct?
    I am puzzled.  I appreciate for your advice and help.
    Thank you!

    It doesn't appear under the iPad device on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes, you need to select the iPad device on the sidebar and then select the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes e.g.
    And then on the right-hand side :

    Hi sumith,
    I read some documents about WmiMonitorConnectionParams class, it should be able to get the video putput technology by the D3DKMDT_VIDEO_OUTPUT_TECHNOLOGY enumeration.
    D3DKMDT_VIDEO_OUTPUT_TECHNOLOGY enumeration
    So what happens when you are using WmiMonitorConnectionParams class? What prevent you? Anyway, please see a example of using WmiMonitorConnectionParams class, maybe you could get some hints on it.

  • "find my iphone" device name changed to something offensive

    hi,
    i used my ipad to find my iphone4S yesterday.  listed in my list of devices was also my old iphone3 that I use as an ipod in a docking station in another part of my house.  i have small children and no one has access to my old phone to mess with it.  what concerns me is that what the name has been changed to as it's really offensive and threatening.  it uses swear words and refers to a female in the house, and as that's me i'm freaked out about the location services side of things.  on a practical level, is it possible to have my phone hacked in this way and if so what can i do about it?  can anyone help?

    The name that Find My Phone uses, is the name of your phone: Settings>General>About>Name. Someone had physical access, & changed the name. This is easily done by tapping on the name displayed, then changing it to whatever you like.

  • HT4759 Is it true that when setting up devices with the find my phone app you must use the same account for ICloud ? If so how do I delete a current account to make it read as the other ICloud accounts?

    I'm setting up my devices with the find my phone app. I have accomplished setting up 2 devices. The third I can't setup because I can't change the iCloud account.
    My understanding from reading that the iCloud accounts must use the same name on all devices. How do I change that account in my phone settings?

    You don't have to use the same iCloud account in order to track all your devices.  You just have to sign into the iCloud account being used on the device you are trying to track in order to track it.  When you sign in on icloud.com and open Find My iPhone, you will see all the devices with Find My iPhone enabled that are using the account you signed in with.  To track a device using a different account, simply sign out, then sign back in using the ID the new device is using.
    The Find My iPhone app works the same way.  It will display devices based on the iCloud account you sign in with on the app.  To track a device using a different account, sign out, then sign back in with the iCloud ID that the new device is using.

  • Multiple Device Names

    Once I upgraded to Yosemite, I noticed in Finder that my device name would change and under the Shared section, there was multiples of my computer.  In Devices, it shows COMPUTER (2) and then Macintosh HD.  The number changes all the time as well.  Under Shared, I see COMPUTER, COMPUTER (2), COMPUTER (3) and COMPUTER (4).  There is no way to delete them and I think it's the reason I am having difficult Wi-Fi syncing my iPhone 6 and iPad to iTunes.  Can someone offer a suggestion on how to make my computer only have the one name (as it did in Mavericks)?  Thanks.......

    Experiencing the same thing. Have tried everything to rectify the situation, but my computer name and local addressing keep changing. Be sure to log the bug so Apple can get this fixed: http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html

  • Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use.

    I posted in : http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/disconnected-network-drive-error-as-follows-an/9a877c38-5e86-4c34-84c2-427a965577c6?page=2
    Error:
    "An error occurred while reconnecting drive letter to \\network server\share folder.
    Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use.
    This connection has not been restored."
    1) A workstation is running Windows 7
    2) The user has a drive letter mapped to a UNC
    3) The connection is interrupted at some point and then restored
    4) Upon attempting to access the mapped network drive, the user gets the error about the letter being
    already in use.
    Extremely disappointed that some of the posts marked as answers were obviously not, shows how poor the moderators here are.
    My latest results clearly point to a Windows 7 client problem:
    I received the error.
    Had run nslookup so had a prompt open.
    ran dir z:    worked. went to Windows Explorer, same error.
    ran dir z:\sharename    worked. went to Windows Explorer, same error.
    copy con z: test.txt then type test.txt; could create and retrieve file. Went and clicked on mapped drive in Windows explorer and received same error.
    Obviously(?) not a Server or Networking problem. Ran Malwarebytes from bootable CD (client doesn't believe in AV). Didn't happen with USB flash drive.
    Any other ideas?

    This is usually because the drive letter assigned to the network share is taken by something else. Maybe, by a removable drive.
    Moderators and other answerers do their best to help specific cases, but everyone has their own situation.  Apply common sense to the replies you find in the forums.
    When you typed dir z:  - is Z: the drive letter you wanted for this share, or it was automatically assigned?
    -- pa
    Alternatively you could try using common sense when you post, as well as taking the time to read the entire issue post so that you can avoid showing both your ignorance and arrogance (arrogance without any competency to back it I might add).
    Suggesting that it might be "another drive" that took over the mapping shows your lack of reading comprehension and is unhelpful.   Please take the time to, once again, read first.
    Lastly moderators here generally show little technical skill beyond entering search words into a knowledge-base of articles and then applying the results incorrectly further exacerbating the situation for the customer.

    Hi experts,
    We updated our MI version to 7.1 SP9, or prior version was 7.1 SP8.
    On mobile client there is no field to register de Device name like the prior version, where do I register the device name on client?
    Another question, where can I find 7.1 SP9 release notes?

  • Set or Change Device Name in Profile Manager

    Hello,
    Is it possible to set or change the device name of an enrolled device using profile manager?
    I notice WGMs old 'Set computer name to computer record name' is still there under Login Window options, but I couldn't find away to actually change the record name.
    Am I missing something obvious?

    The only way I have found to change the device name in Profile Manager is to change it on the device itself, then wait for the updated info to reach PM.
    The option to "set the computer name to computer record name" will set the computer name to the name of a computer record that matches in Open Directory (based on MAC). This option would allow you to change the device name in Profile Manager in a round about way... change the computer record name in OD, wait for the change to make it's way to the computer, then back up to the Profile Manager. In my experience, this doesn't take too long.

  • How can I read the active (plugged in) DAQs and then send that to the device name input on DAQ assist?

    I have a system property node for daqmx but it does not let me change it to read when i right click on it. I am trying to have my program detect the name of the daq that is plugged in to the PC and then send that to daq assistant so that it will run properly wiithout me manually having to change the device name every time i switch hardware.

    You have do do programming.  That is what LabVIEW is.  MAX gives you all the tools to do everything you want and much more just program it to do what you want.
    Attached is a VI that I think does what you want.  I looks at all of your devices and returns the first non simulated one.  Apparently this list already excludes devices not connected to the system.

  • How to change logical device names

    Hi, I would like to change the logical device names for an external StorEdge. Booting into single user mode from a CD and deleting everything in /dev/dsk/ and /dev/rdsk/ as well as the path_to_inst file and then reconfigure booting doesn't work. Solaris remembers which physical device name was allocated to which logical device name. Haven't been able to find any info on how Solaris remembers this. I've thought of booting into init S from CD and renaming the logical device names but I would like to rename them to the next available controller which is c3 and which is probably already "reserved" for the unused onboard SCSI controller. Does anybody have any info on this ?
