How Do I Change The Name Of My IPod

I purchased a used Shuffle on E-Bay. Works great. Only problem is when I sync it, it say's Danny's IPod and I am not Danny!! How do I change the name??

hi there
give this a go:
open a Finder window...control+click on the Shuffle...go to Get Info...go to Name & Extension...then type the new name.
//or// if the shuffle appears on your desktop, just click twice on the "wording" of the shuffle - and type the new name.
I change the name of my USB drives and I do it the same way. it should work the same for your shuffle.
good luck danny - i mean, robert!!!!

    Connect your iPod to the computer. Once it shows up in the source list of iTunes (the window on the left where you see "library", "playlists", "podcasts" etc), double click on it and this will highlight it and you can then type a name for it.

    How do I change the names of artists or gendre in the itunes list after importing an album?  Is it posssible to change that information?

    Yes. Select one or more tracks (use ctrl or shift clicks to add/remove or extend a selection) then right-click or press CTRL-I to Get Info. Use the different tabs of the dialog to make changes.
    For general advice on getting things neat & tidy see my article on Grouping tracks into albums.

  • How can I change the name of item in TableViewController iOS

    How can I change the name of item in TableViewController? I want to be able to change the title of an item if I added one. Code:

    These outlets to the buttons use a `strong` reference instead of `weak` because we want
    to keep the buttons around even if they're not inside a view.

    Hey JB001,
    Sounds like you have more going on than just a simple issue with Home Sharing and more dealing with Wi-Fi syncing. Start with the article below and see if that may resolve it.
    iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4062
    If it does not work out, then may I suggest contacting Apple for further assistance to walk you through it or just take that time that you were talking about to sort it out.

    If you are trying to change the iCloud ID to another ID, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.
    If you are trying to change the name of your existing iCloud ID and not trying to change to a different ID, you can change the name of the ID as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621.  After doing so, you'll need to sign out of the exising ID, then sign back in using the changed ID.
