How Do I Display the Current User Name on SharePoint

I have a customer using a hosted SharePoint 2013 multi-tenant solution and they have asked to have the end user's name to be displayed when logged in. It seems like I have seen this done on other SharePoint deployments but I can't seem to figure out how
or where to enable this now.
Can anyone tell me how to display the current user's name in SharePoint 2013?

Settings>Store: Tap the AppleID and choose "Sign Out", it will then prompt you to sign in and you can use the new AppleID.
NOTE: Apps must be updated with the AppleID they were purchased under.

How to find the current User Name and stored in which table

In which table the current user name (Login) is stored?

Hi Mohanapriya
The query provided by Gordon can not run on query generator as the $USER is a runtime variable.
You need to save it to a query then use it in a FMS(Formatted Search.)
Just open a form(ex:sales order ), click the field in which you want to show the user name,
then press ****+F2 or Tools->Search Function->Define,
Search by Saved query,then assign the save query to the field.
After that ,you can run the FMS(shift+F2) to get the current user info.

How do I change the itunes user name on my iphone?

How do I change the itunes user name on my iphone? When I attempt to purchase an app or update the existing ones, the previous owner of this iphone has their information displayed and asks for the password as their user name is automatically prompted?

The apps are tied to the account from which they were purchased. If the apps were purchased from the previous owners account, then they would have to be updated from that account. you should not have these apps anyway. You need to buy your own.
Read the manual. it will tell you how to sign into your account to buy apps.

I would suggest restoring as new.

Displaying the current users information instead of the value of the person who completed the form in the first place.

I found this fantatic post regarding querying the user profile service
http://blogs.technet.com/b/anneste/archive/2011/11/02/how-to-create-an-infopath-form-to-auto-populate-data-in-sharepoint-2010.aspx?pi47623=2#comments
However i have an issue whenever the form is opened again either to view or edit, it displays the current users information
instead of the value of the person who completed the form in the first place.
Please help me, I'm turning more grey each minute

I think it is how the current user information is stored based on your logic.
You might be quering current value again when loading the form (Form load Rule).
you have to tweak your logic, after the user submits the form you can set the username to the one who saved it.
or in form load, write a logic to see if the form was not saved before and then query the username( by using internal field like "formstatue")
Hope this helps!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can use one iCloud account between multiple devices.
What do you mean 'change the iCloud user name'.

How to get the current user name of the host who is occupying a specific VM?

I'm developing a winform app with c# code to manage Hyper-V. I need to remind someone if he/she would take a VM which has already been occupied by others.
Is there any powershell cmd or WMI interface to get the current user of a specific VM?
Thanks!

Hiya,
from cmd there are quser(Query user) and qwinsta(Query Session)
which should give you that. Don't know how you can incoorperate that in C#, but that should give you something to work with :)

How can I get the current user and the current page?

Hi everyone
Question..
It is possible to get the current user (from the user's database on apex) and the current page? (I mean, if I'm in page 4 be able to query a variable / function or something which could give me the current displayed page)
Thank you very much... I'd been researching without success :-S so I'll appreciate your help
Regards,
Fury

Fury,
If the user has authenticated, :APP_USER is the name that was used. The current page id is in :APP_PAGE_ID.
Although I showed bind variable notation for those, & substitution format and v() notation are also available for referencing developer-defined items or built-in names. See the User's Guide for more details.

How to get the current user name in Provider hosted app using appOnlyAccessToken

Hi,
Please help me, how to get the HostWeb UserName in Provider Hosted App
i have Provider hosted App, and Anonymous Authentication is enabled on AppWeb, using appOnlyAccessToken
Below code does not return current user who Log in in hostweb, it is returning
SharePoint App (app@sharepoint)
Web web = clientContext.Web;
clientContext.Load(web);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
clientContext.Load(web.CurrentUser);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
clientContext.Web.CurrentUser.LoginName;
Below code gives a blank name when Anonymous Authentication is enabled, if Anonymous Authentication is disabled
app prompts for credentials
HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name
Thanks
Ram

Hi,
Since you are using a provider Hosted app if you want to get the current logged in name than do not use AppOnlyAccessToken else use AccessToken which is App + user Context AccessToken.
then
Web web = clientContext.Web;
clientContext.Load(web);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
clientContext.Load(web.CurrentUser);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
clientContext.Web.CurrentUser.LoginName;will return proper user Name.
HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name will never return the user as this object is related to IIS server of your App Server not sharepoint.you should set this as Anonymous in case of provider hosted app.you can download the below sample which uses the AccessToken which has user name in it.https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/Working-provider-hosted-8fdf2d95

How do I stop the message "user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2 times in a row when i try to get mail from other accounts? thank you in advance

How do I stop the message "Cannot get mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2-4 times consecutively every time I choose MAIL on my iPhone 4, 7.1.1 I have to select "OK" 2-4 times each time before I can read other email accounts. I used to have an "@me.com" account which I think was automatically changed to an "@icloud.com account." I opened a new iCloud.com account yesterday because I could not figure out how to get in the old ones. I want to delete the original @me & original iCloud account. When I try to delete the account, they tell me my DOB is wrong. I just want those pop ups to stop. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Suzanne,
It sounds like you’re running into a password issue with an older Apple ID that’s setup on your iPhone, which is preventing you from removing an iCloud account from your device. Take a look at the article linked below, it outlines all of the possible ways to change an Apple ID password.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
After you enter your Apple ID, there are three ways you can change your password:
Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
So long,
-Jason

How do I get the full user name acceptable for administration approval?

I migrated my account from my older macbook pro with the same OSX.
I initially setup the account with my full username and account name the same as on the old machine - but soon discovered that the Migration Assistant wouldn't allow migration this way (the most obvious scenario).
So I was instructed by Apple Support to create a new different Administrator Account, then remove the old account and perform the Migration. This seemed to work
After completing the migration I can now log in with my former full Account Name and password (this account has "allow user to administer Computer set") however I now cannot use the Full Account name to authorize changes - it seems not to recognize the password - however I can authorize changes with the short account name and password.
How can I configure the system so it will recognize the full account name for authorizations?

Since you failed to do the migration on first boot, the full system name only applies to the original account you set up. All other accounts use the short username. Although you thought you did it the most obvious way, you didn't. The simplest way to get the new machine to act like the old one is to erase the new one, reinstall the software as described in the user manual, and on first boot DON'T create any user account, but use the setup assistant to migrate everything from the old MB. That will solve all of your issues. Afterwards, reinstall any other software that's on the discs that shipped with the machine, run Software Update to get everything up to date, repair permissions, and restart.

How do I change the admin user name?

After a recent crash on my Macbook, the local repair store reinstalled Leopard on it for me, and did all the preliminary setup. Unfortunately, they misspelled my name, and so my "Home" folder in Finder has my name misspelled on it. I can't rename it directly (It says it can't be modified because Mac OS depends on it).
Is there some other indirect way to correct the spelling (like through terminal or similar) , or is my only option creating another user name and moving all my files to it?
Thanks in advance,
Peavy
