Computer has different name than Itunes for Ipod Touch

I have an Ipod Touch 4th Generation 32gb. I have had no problems with it or with Itunes. My Mom came last Saturday to visit and she needed to charge her Ipod Touch so I hooked it to my computer where I always have a cord and charged it for about 45 minutes or so. I have no problem with my Ipod or with Itunes BUT when I go look at the device now on my computer,when it is connected to USB cord, it show "Marys Ipod" now instead of "Steves Ipod". In Itunes, it is still "Steves Ipod" and I can sync and all but I really want to get rid of "Marys Ipod" off my computer even though when I open it up, it is my ipod, just mislabed. I know because it has my pictures and her's is only 8gb. My Ipad2, is fine when I hook it up to the USB cord, It says "Steves Ipad" but when I hook my USB cord to my ipod touch, it still reads "Marys Ipod". Is this something I should be concerned about or is it not worth the hassle of trying to restore, etc? I have tried to change the name, but Windows won't allow. I do have Windows 7. I have also got the new update on Itunes and the new software(5.0) version.
I am stumped. I have googled this and have searched for over 3 hours today on how to fix this. Ready to bang my head against the wall. I have did a reboot on Ipod, I have restarted the computer. I have not reinstalled anything including Itunes.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do? I would sure appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.

I just found the answer to this after hours of searching online. Make sure your iPod is hooked up to your computer & turned on.
Click on "Start" and in the search box type "regedit". This will display a program called "Registry Editor". Open it.
Click on the "Edit" tab and select "Find...". Type "Mary" in the search box and click "Find Next". It will bring up a list of everything that has "Mary" in it. (You may have to click on "Find next" under the "Edit" tab in order to find the associated items that have something to do with both "iPod" and "Mary".) What you need to pay attention to is not the NAME, but the DATA column. For me, the wrong iPod name was listed in 2 places in the data column. The actual names of those 2 items were "FriendlyName" and "Label".
Once you find the associated items that have to do with both the iPod and "Mary", right click on one of them. Select "Modify...". A box will open giving a "Value Name" box and a "Value Data" box. The "Value Data" box should say "Mary's iPod". All you have to do is change it to "Steve's iPod" and click "OK". Repeat the "Modify..." and renaming of the "Value Data" steps for every item that says something about "Mary's iPod".
Close the Registry Editor. Open "my computer" and see that it changed the name of your iPod back to "Steve's iPod".
Best Answer So far.....it really works...Thanks a million

Need suggestions for good webcam (not isight) for OS 10.4.9

I never would have thought it would be so hard to find a webcam for my powerbook! Simple question, Who makes a good one now that isight isn't made anymore? I want to use it with Skype and iChat. Thanks!!!

Today I just bought the quickcam fusion which works well... I just plugged it in and it worked - I didn't install any software (windows only software comes with the camera), so I'm not sure if I can take advantage of features such as "rightlight 2", which enhances the video under low light, and I don't think that I can take 4MP images with it - just video conferencing with ichat (which is what I bought it for) (and I just found freakshow - which is like photobooth).
Make sure you get the UVC version of any webcam...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4401596&#4401596
It's kinda difficult to figure out which cameras are UVC compatible - I just looked at the table in the following link and picked the quickcam fusion with the "rightlight 2". The one with just "rightlight" is not UVC compatible.

Webcams other than isight

does anybody know of any webcams other than isight that will work with a mac, all i can find are ones for pc's??
or do webcams for pc's work with a mac?? thanks!
powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

HI Bronnus,
As the drivers for cams get added to the OS rather than which App you use. The link to those at iChatUSBCam will work.
This link might help with Firewire ones http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/drivers/firewirewebcamdriver.html
This link also lists this page http://www.ioxperts.com/devices/webcam.html which has drivers.
Of course some of these may only be written for PCC Macs. There may be no Universal code written ones for Intel Macs.

Using a different webcam with Intel iMac with built-in isight cam.

Hi...I hope someone can shed some light on this.
I have an intel core duo iMac 20 with built-in isight.
I use Yahoo Messenger (the new version) and have no problems getting my isight to work with it.
For most circumstances, the built-in isight is fine... but sometimes having a camera with a zoom feature and the ability to pan further up or down would be most beneficial.
I also own a usb Logitech (pro-4000) webcam (the last series for which they have Mac support) and have installed the latest Mac drivers for it. I can get the Logitec to run its built-in applications, but when I try to select a webcam to use for Yahoo (in the yahoo preferences webcam section), the only selection available to me is the built-in isight.
Is there any way to get the option to choose between the Logitech and the isight?
Thanks for any help you can give me...

I tried macam drivers, but that just gave me an application that allowed me to record video or snap pics from my Quickcam, Yahoo Messenger still does not recognize it as a source.

I have an itunes account. However, I need to copy music onto a different iPod than my own. How do I do that? Do I need to create a separate iTunes account for that iPod?

I have an itunes account. However, I need to copy music onto a different iPod than my own. How do I do that? Do I need to create a separate iTunes account for that iPod?

An account means an iTunes Store account which is an online service. Do you mean that, or do you mean a library on a computer?
iOS devices can only be synced to one iTunes library at a time. You can sync that iPod to your account but it will wipe everything currently on it.
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod - http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201253 - detailed example: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18860187#18860187
If you use manual syncing, you can sync items from more than one iTunes library to your iPod. (You can sync iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad with only one iTunes library.) When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPod and iPad. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12113 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202
I could post another 2 pages of stuff trying to cover every possible scenario. It would help if you let us know exactly what you want to do. Are you trying to sync just a few songs (like giving them to a friend which is something iTunes is deliberately set up not to do)?

Update it from that Apple ID, or delete and redownload it.

IMac built-in iSight for use as an IP webcam?

Hi,
I'd like to get a live picture from my iSight via the internet, is it possible without buying extra software? How would I do this? I came across a forum response that said to look in Internet Sharing but there's no webcam or iSight in the list.
The iMac is on 10.4.11 btw.
Thanks.
Message was edited by: Jonathan Mortimer

The simplest (though not necessarily the most reliable) free way I know for 10.4.11 is via Yahoo! Messenger for Mac (YMM.) It works easily for some users, but some report a lot of trouble.
YMM is NOT Apple software, so, if you decide to try YMM, see the YMM instructions or Yahoo! Help if you need assistance.
After you have installed and configured YMM, select "View My Webcam", and your webcam will be broadcast over the web. Image update frame-rate depends on the speed of your Mac and your internet connection. Once you are broadcasting, you (or anyone else who know the address for your webcam) can view it in Yahoo! Messenger on their computer.
Many other software applications can stream webcam images. See this page:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013310
However, the ones that are easiest to use will cost you a few dollars.
Depending on the specifics of what you need to do, you might also be able to do what you want for free using one of the browser-based video chat sites listed in that link above or in this web search.

"Show List of values" showing different values than "Preview List of values for the same dimension Object

Hi All,
I have a dimension object in Business Layer which is showing a different values than the original database values. When I right click on the object and select "Show List of Values its showing values which are not related to the original values in the database but if I right click on the same object and select "Preview List of Values" it shows the right values present in the database. Any suggestions on how to rectify. It was working good and many reports have been built using that particular dimension.
Is there any way to fix the problem without the deleting the object or recreating another similar object as the object has been used in several reports, so by deleting or recreating the object may break the reports.
Please help!

Hi
A list of values is a list that contains the data values associated with an object, Lists of values inserted in the data foundation are inherited by any business layer based on the data foundation.
Right click on the object and select “Show Values”… Display all the DB values including null
Preview List of Values – also display same values...getting differnece meens...Check weather using any Static List of Values.
If you uncheck the Associated list of values check box "Preview List of Values" options is disabled.
For best practice …LOV is disabled for un-necessary dimension objects
Also If you have Db access check the correct data by
SELECT
Distinct Schema name. Table/View name. Object name
FROM
Schema.name. Table/View name

HT5538 My boss has an IPhone from a different carrier than my iPhone. I want to set up iMessage so we can text each other for free. Is that possible? If so, what do I do to my phone and/or hers to set it up?

My boss has an IPhone from a different carrier than my iPhone. I want to set up iMessage so we can text each other for free. Is that possible? If so, what do I do to my phone and/or hers to set it up?

Just turn on iMessage... Settings > Messsages > iMessage > On
Note that iMessage uses data (very small amount) so you need a cellular data (3G/4G) or wifi connection for iMessagae to work. Also, in the Messages app, iMessages are blue and standard text messages are green.

How to generate & publish webhelp html files in different folder than default folder

Hi All,
I am new to robo help. I have a requirement to generate & publish webhelp html files in a different folder than default folder.
Could anyone please tell me the steps to change the folder
Thanks
Rashmi

You change the generate folder and filename in the first field on the first page of the wizard. It must be a folder on your hard disk.
You change the publish folder in the last page of the wizard. Anywhere you like.

SLI - Can I use two different video card versions for SLI?

Hello,
Can I use two different generations of MSI video cards that implement the same GPU for SLI?
The two video cards are:
MSI N260GTX-T2D896-OCv2 GeForce GTX 260 896MB <-- What I currently have
MSI N260GTX-T2D896-OCv3 GeForce GTX 260 896MB
MSI N260GTX-T2D896-OCv4 GeForce GTX 260 896MB
The main difference between these three seems to be that the OCv3 has two fans and a different heatsink than the OCv2. The OCv4 has one fan like the OCv2 and but it is located in a different location and some weird spikey heatsink thing going on. I already have the OCv2 but I am looking to get another card for SLI and newegg doesn't sell the OCv2 anymore. The important thing is that I am looking for is stability and it seems that the most ideal setup would be to get identical cards.
By the way, why are there so many versions (updates?) to this card? Have there been issues related to the card that necessitate a revision?
Thanks

Different coolers(HS and fans) and possibly different makers of vRAM. But, you should be able to run SLI without issues regardless of the versions.
