    iPhone is designed to sync with one computer only, if you sync with another it will wipe all your content and replace with whatever is on the other computer.

  • HT4436 how do i change the computer that my icloud photostream was syncing with

    how do I change where my photostream pictures are going. I got a new computer and am trying to get everything from the old to the new?

    On your PC, open the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and check the box for Photo Stream. You can adjust your Photo Stream settings by clicking Photo Stream Options.
    Your photos download to the Photo Stream download folder. By default, this folder is located at C:\Users\Apple\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream. You can change this location by visiting Photo Stream Options in the iCloud Control Panel for Windows.

    Connect your phone to iTunes and in the Summary pane, hit the "Sync with this iOS device over Wi-Fi"

  • How do I change the computer's "Name"?

    Hi - I recently upgraded from a Mac Mini to an iMac G5, and as I was setting up the G5 it prompted me thru a firewire data exchange from my old Mac Mini.
    Now, in systems preferences and software setup, everything in the iMac keeps referring to "My Mac Mini". The mini must have asked me to name my computer (don't remember how or when), and moving everything to the new iMac renamed my iMac also.
    How do I get my iMac to stop thinking that it is a mini? Where do I go to change the "computer name" on the iMac? - Thanks!

    It's nice when one can solve a problem so definitively!

  • HT1918 Changed Apple ID on Mac, but how do I change the ID on iPhone and iPad

    I changed my Apple ID on my Mac through iTunes, but how do I change the Apple ID on my iphone and ipad? I have done a sync with the ipad, since the change and nothing changed. Thanks.

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad / iPhone / iPod Touch by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it.

  • How do I change the computer name of my iPhone?

    In Mac OS X, we can go to System Preferences / Sharing, and set our Computer Name. Is there something like this for the iPhone? I'd like to rename mine to something more customized (and identifiable) for when it displays on a home network.

    With iphone connected to itunes, double click on the name and change it - just like changing the name of a playlist.

  • How do I change the password in iPhone without knowing the current PW?

    I synced my iPhone 4S and know my access password very well, yet the phone tells me it's wrong. I have no access to my data and can't make phone calls as the access is denied.
    How can I retrieve control over my phone again? Is there a way to change the pw without knowing the current one?
       ---- HELP!!!

    LOST PASSCODE
    You may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device.
    Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
    Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes", below.
    Right-click the device in the left column and select Back up.
    When the backup is complete, select Restore.
    When finished, restore from your most recent backup.
    Otherwise read this
    If that doesn’t work  you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it. Or read:
    Enter Wrong passcode

  • How do i change the computer user name

    I registered the computer as under my name originally.  I want to change it to my daughters name.  How can I do this?

    Not sure you can change a registration, but you can start here.
    Also, if you erase the hard drive and reinstall OS X then she can complete all the Setup Assistant information, create her own account and password, install only the third-party applications she wants.
    Backup the drive so all the stuff that's on it now is preserved in case it's needed.
    Boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer.  After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.  After DU loads select the startup volume from the left side list then click on the Erase tab.  Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then click on the Options button.  Select the one pass Zero Data option and click on the OK button.  Then click on the Erase button.
    Note: You can skip the Zero Data option if you are not concerned about removing sensitive personal data from the hard drive.  If you choose to skip this part of the process then it is possible for others to recover data from the hard drive.  The Zero Data procedure will prevent others from getting access to your personal information.
    This process will take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the size of the hard drive.  After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Now complete the OS X installation.  At the completion of the installation the computer will restart.  She will be presented with the Setup Assistant just as if it were new out of the box.

  • How do you change the computer you normally sync with?

    My friend is trying to get iOS 5 on his new computer but it wants to delete all his iPhone data. We already transfered his data. How can we update his iPhone without wiping his iPhone and using his old computer?

    Plug it in and sync it.
    The current data will be erased from the iphone and replaced with content form the new computer, so make sure that you have copied everything from your old computer to the new one.

  • How do you change the computer name?

    I just inherited my dads Mac G5 because he bought a new one for work and it still says the name is "James Whites Computer" and I want to change it to my name, how do I do that?
    Thanks.

    At least as recently as 10.4, the computer name is in:
    System Preferences > Sharing
    at the very top of the box.
