Help: How to change the name of a Mighty Mouse (Bluetooth)

When I go into the Keyboard & Mouse preference and click on the Bluetooth, I can see the box for name and battery level for the mouse and keyboard. The problem is, those textboxes are not enabled. As the result, I cannot rename my bluetooth mouse. Can someone help me? Thanks.

With 10.4.8, the steps above works; I can rename my mouse now.

  • How to permanently change the name of my Mighty Mouse?

    Hi guys,
    I used to have an Apple Wireless mouse which I named as "my full name". I then upgraded to the Mighty Mouse and went into the Bluetooth preferences to change the Mouses name to "My first name only" It works for a few days but then my old name keeps appearing when I click on the Bluetooth symbol in the top right corner of the desktop bar.
    I cannot figure out how to permanently change the name without it changing back anywhere from a day later to a week later. It's strange.
    Any suggestions?

    i will try to help u out. i have a might mouse as well.
    glad u posted this...forgot there is a battery meter in there for the batteries! (buy rechargeable if u havent already).
    well try this..instead of going into mouse preference...just click the bluetooth symbol at the top right of the screen (i have mine set to show). click the bluetooth tab. then change the name. close the pref pane.
    see how long it lasts. i just changed my name....so we shall c

  • How to change the "name of column" property of an text item in runtime?

    How to change the "name of column" property of an text item in runtime?
    I look the properties of items in help and found nothing about this!
    It's possible?

    Hi,
    an other solution is change the block property QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_TYPE from "Table" to "Sub-query" , than change at run time the property QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME.
    First create block and add items
    The QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME will be for ex. "Select 'A' as col1, 'B' AS col2, 'C' as col3 from dual"
    Set into items the column name property to col1 , col2 ...
    At run time change the query to "Select 'Z' as col1, 'X' as col2 , 'Y' as col3 from dual"
    in this way you can change the source of column value.
    Caution because if you change value type from varchar2 to date you must cast date into varchar2.
    May be that this way is valid only for view data not for insert-update, i don't remember.
    bye

  • Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express

    Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express please? I now work in a UN compound and my network is my own name, would prefer some anonymity so seeking to change the wifi network name that others might see.

    Hi mkl1961,
    Happy Holidays!  The article below will explain how to reset your Airport Express and change the network and base station names back to their defaults.  
    Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT3728
    What default settings will my AirPort base station have after a hard or factory default reset?
    AirPort base stations are set to request an IP address by DHCP.
    AirPort base station passwords are "public."
    AirPort base station names revert to "base station xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    AirPort base station network names are "Apple Network xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    *A MAC (Media Access Control) address, also known as a "network ID," is a unique hardware identification number for a network port.  You can find the wireless and Ethernet network IDs on the printed label on the bottom or side of the device.

  • Will someone please tell me how to change the name of a folder I created in Pages and saved to the cloud?

    Will someone please tell me how to change the name of a folder I created in "Pages" and saved to the "Cloud"? Thanks.

    Go to the open dialog in Pages and select iCloud.
    Click on the folder that you created on iCloud to open the folder.
    On the lower half of the window (the open folder) click on the name of the folder.
    Once you click and select the folder's name it should be editable.

  • HT204053 Our Apple ID is ok and functioning.  However, I just came on as the IT for the group and cannot find how to change the name.

    Our Apple ID is ok and functioning.  However, I just came on as the IT for the group and cannot find how to change the name.

    Assuming you mean the personal name associated with the account, as opposed to the login (which you can change if it's not an @icloud.com. @me.com or @mac.com address) you can change this at http://appleid.appla.com . Click on 'Manage your account' and then on 'Edit' next to 'Your name' and the name currently associated with the ID.

  • Existing cross Reference: how to change the name of the file it refers to?

    Hi everybody,
    I am a professional translator.
    One client of mine sent me a complete FrameMaker 9 book file for translation.
    I translated the content via a CAT-Tool and now am in the process of checking if cross references and markers are ok directly into the file.
    I noticed that many cross references are linked to another file of the book. But in the process of translating each file separately, I gave them a slightly different name (I added the language at the end) so as to be able to recognise them eventually.
    Now I have this problem: I cannot find in the cross reference interface where to change the name of the file into the new one the cross reference is supposed to refer to.
    Am I right in wanting to change the file reference? If so, how do I do that?
    Or is it better to avoid this task and rename the translated file into their original names ? Would it work then?
    Thanks for your help.

    ... book file ...
    ...  each file separately, I gave  them a slightly different name (I added the language at the end) ...
    I'm guessing that you renamed the component files by means other than using the Edit > Rename File from the Book menu.
    If so, do over. Rename from the Book menu. It automatically revises all the cross-references in all the component files.
    In a Book, the only thing that's safe to rename with the file manager is the .book file itself.

  • How to change the name of the Mac I connect to in the drop-down window.

    Using my brand new MacBook, in the drop down menu when I connect to my iMac, it shows up as my name ( which is Derek Walton's Computer) ...... How can I change the name that shows up here? I have tried all areas that iI can think of and altered my name on the iMac but to no avail - e.g. - Network Sharing, Account Name, and so on.... anything anywhere I have changed... but it always shows up with my full name. I have however managed to get the name in the sidebar of the Leopard window to read as I want ( Derek's iMac) but that is all.
    Also, when I am using Airport on my MacBook, in the drop-down menu I see also other neighbours connections.... I am wondering therefore does it follow that they can see my wireless connection ( as Derel Waltons Computer)?
    This has been vexing me all night and I am geting very frustrated, but I bet there is a simple answer..... for those that know!
    Thanks in advance for any help you care to put my way.

    It is not a simple issue. Not the same as changing a user account in Preferences. Ttry this link:

  • How to change the name of External Hard Disk?

    I am new to Mac so if this is really easy and I am being completely lame here please excuse me.
    I have an External Hard Drive that is being used by Time Machine. I don't want to see it on the desktop so I was going to change the name so it had a '.' character in front to hide it, as suggested on another thread because the hiding of external disks in the finder preferences doesn't quite work right.
    How can I change the name? Do I have to reformat it? I don't want to do that because I have been using it for several weeks now so was hoping there is another way.
    Thanks for the help.

    AlfaGuido,
    If I understand your question correctly, you erroneously placed a "." in the name field of your external hard drive to make it invisible. Now that the hard drive is invisible and therefore unusable, you want to remove the "." that you placed in front of the name of your external hard drive.
    TinkerTool will allow you to see the drive and remove the "." from the name field using the TinkerTool>Finder>Finder options: [✓] Show hidden and system files.
