How can I change my registration information in Lion?

I recently received a laptop for work and when I was setting it up, I used the name of the co-worker who looks after ordering computers to register. Now some of my applications (iChat) are automatically putting his name and information as a default and I cannot change it. I don't want to send iChat messages as a different person. My iChat handle is correct, but when I switch to Name, it is different than my own. How can I change the registration information for this computer without wiping the whole machine?

I think that I was not clear. I am not having a problem with any of my user accounts, this has to do with the initial setup of my Mac. The registration information is automatically populating form and apps with the wrong data. I have searched pretty exstensively and have not found a solution. I have resorted to an Erase and Install. That should do the trick.

  • How coa i change my payment information from visa account to non accout

    hi
    how can i change my payment information from visa account to non account

    Have you created the account? If yes, the following procedures cant be applied. You have to open a new account for this to work!
    In your PC:
    1.Open iTunes and navigate to App Store!
    2. Sign-out of Apple ID.
    3. Upon seeing a free app, you'll notice that a button named FREE is displayed beneath so when you click it, it downloads automatically.
    4. Click it, now a dialog box opens up asking you to provice your Apple login details, in that box you'll notice the option named CREATE AN ACCOUNT, click it and create a new ID.
    5. On the payment page, there will be an optin named NONE, select it and complete the registration.
    Its done.

  • HT204053 how can I change credit card linked to account

    how can I change credit card information?

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your iPhone then you could try tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6+) and selecting 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
