How do I change the name of of my iPad in iTunes 11.0.1 and iOS 6.1?

I am trying to rename my iPad. It automatically named it the same as my iMac and I would like a different name. All the threads give information on how to do it in older versions of iTunes. Nothing listed for the new iTunes
Any Help out there?

You can enable the sidebar in iTunes 11 by going to View>Show Sidebar in the menu at the top of the screen. The iPad will appear under the devices heading and you can click on it to highlight it and then rename it.
You can rename it on the iPad as well in Settings>General>About>Name.

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:
// ViewController.m
// Movie List
// Created by Damian on 20/02/15.
// Copyright (c) 2015 Tika Software. All rights reserved.
#import "ViewController.h"
@interface ViewController ()
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.
@property (nonatomic, strong) IBOutlet UIBarButtonItem *editButton;
@property (nonatomic, strong) IBOutlet UIBarButtonItem *cancelButton;
@property (nonatomic, strong) IBOutlet UIBarButtonItem *deleteButton;

@property (nonatomic, strong) NSMutableArray *dataArray;

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.

Same question for the "2 iPhones in one account".....How do I change the name. My iPhone is showing my wife's iPhone name when I am syncing it. Why is that? I know about using one iTunes account....But how do you change the name w/o erasing your data?

Hi....How do you change the name? When I sync my iPhone, it shows my wife's name on it?

Unfortunately it is not doing it....
Let me give more details..We have 3 iPods and 2 iPhone4....I recently purchased the iPhone4 and when we connected it..It was already reading my wife's iPhone4..We went to the Apple Store at the Grove today and was told to de-authorize the system and connect my iPhone4 back and I should be able to change the name.
Nothing happened..Right now, I clicked on RESTORE settings...and it is uploading a new iPhone update.

How do i change the name associated with my icloud

how do i change the name associated with my icloud

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.

Jerry,
Thanks for replying again. I've got a little bit further thanks to you. I tried the US keyboard layout as you seemed pretty definte that it should work. This time I applied the setting and also started the language toolbar and selected it from there.
Hey presto, I've got the @ where it should be. Excellent.
However the single quote ' works in a weird way. When I press it, it doesn't show up on the screen. But when I press another key, I get the single quote plus the next key I press. When I press the single quote twice, I get 2 of them. This is also the same with the SHIFT ' key. i.e. for the double quotes.
Very strange. I'll look at other keyboards and see where that gets me.
Thanks, Maz

How do I change the name of my macbook pro?

How do I change the name of my macbook pro. My full name is listed on it and I want to change that. In the upper right hand corner it is correct but all that lists is my login name.

Mr. Pat, there are some people who still try to do that, but you are risking losing all your music, photos, email, etc. It is not for the faint of heart. This page, albeit published in 2003 by Dr. Smoke, is still pretty valid, IMHO:
http://thexlab.com/faqs/renamehomerecovery.html
Here's the opening copy:
Recover from renaming your Home folder
It is a grave mistake to rename your Home folder -- changing its file name from johnsmith toJohn, for example -- in an attempt to change the short name for your account when using Mac® OS X.

How do I change the name of my podcast in iTunes?

My podcast is listed by my name (John Bell) in iTunes instead of its title (Bell's in the Batfry) which confuses a lot of folks looking for it.
Is there a way somebody can explain to me... in "idiot english"... how I can get iTunes to change the name?
Windows XP

I've looked at your code and the title of the code in your .xml file (and when its viewed in a web browser) has the title line down as your name not your podcast name.
An error in the entry I'm afraid, not iTunes. As Mitchell says you can open the .xml file and edit the text - however, every time you create a new episode you may find the programme you're using will overwrite the code.
As your name appears twice in your podcast (as the author and as the podcast name), only thing i could suggest is looking at the details youve entered to see if you had to put your name in twice in your programme - if you had to put it in twice try changing one of the fields, publish it and then open the xml file in a browser window - if the top line shows the amended name you know thats the one!
Hope that all makes sense - it does in my head!!!! :o)
