How can I change the user name on a macbook?
I don't mean the accounts, but the actual name of the user of the macbook.
ex. where it says "John Smith's Macbook".
There should be something called "System Preferences" and then "accounts" go to that. There you can change it.

How can I change the USER name of my i-cloud e-mail account? It was set up by my son and he used a silly / embarrassing user name. I would like to change this name OR set up another i-cloud e-mail account under my own name / reference. Help?
iCloud email addresses can't be changed or deleted, but you can set up an alias namethat he can use which will be linked to his current iCloud account and will receive email in the existing iCould inbox. This guide explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

How can I change my user name on my iPhone 4S running OS 8.1.1 so I can update my Apps?
Hi jprohask63,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you have applications that were originally downloaded from a different Apple ID, you would need to sign out of the current Apple ID and sign in to the Apple ID that was used originally to download the application. To complete this process please follow the instructions provided in the attached article.
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
Cheers,

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 tag name in cursor statement?
Hi
I have two tables: TableA and TableB. I want generate a XML file using XSU12 from these two tables, the XML structure like:
<ROWSETA>
<ROWA num="1">
<A1></A1>
<A2></A2>
<A3>
<A3_ROW num="1">
<B1></B1>
<B2></B2>
</A3_ROW>
<A3_ROW num="2">
<B1></B1>
<B2></B2>
</A3_ROW>
</A3>
</ROWA>
</ROWSETA>
How can I change the tag name and attribute for "A3_ROW"?
Thanks in advance!
nullIn short, you can't.
You can use the column alias as you're already doing to change the name of the "A3" part of "A3_ROW" but you cannot change the "_ROW" part of "A3_ROW". This is added automatically.
You can combine the results of XSU with an XSLT stylesheet (made very simple if you're using XSU by working with Oracle XSQL Pages) to change the name of any element or completely restructure the XML output into a target XML, HTML, or text format. -

The name that appears in Adobe Send is the name that you used when you created your Adobe ID. You can update this by clicking on your name in the upper-right corner and selecting My Information ...
Once the My Information dialog appears, you can change the First Name and Last Name on the account. Note that you're updating your Adobe ID, so in many places where you use that Adobe ID, it will display with those names. (Some Adobe sites, such as this forum, use other screennames; those would not be affected.) -
How can I change the location name my iPhone pulls up when I am home. The info that pulls is not correct?
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.

how can i change the user on FaceTime? im trying to do this on a iMac
I'm using an iMac with OSX 10.6.8. The proceedure on your system is probably similar.
Get the Facetime window up, and go to Facetime preferences. Click on "account," you'll see a view account option that will prompt you to sign in with your Apple id and password. From there you can make the changes that you want. -

Read ADC functions at 1000Hz? (7344)
Is it possible to read data from the ADC's on the UMI(and store it) at 1000Hz. I read somewhere on the forum saying that high speed capture is only good up to a certain rate. Obviously reading in a loop with the waitms = 1ms would not work. Any sugge
