How do you change your name in "My Settings"

I want to change the name shown when posting on this forum. I registered years ago using my real name. I have tried, but can't seem to figure out how to change it.
Thanks

iTunes is your answer. YES! iTunes... edit your info on your account in iTunes and it should work.

    How do you change the name of your phone?  I am having that horrible problem of my phone suddenly not working (no audio) with my Bluetooth (apparently due to the most recent update) and nothing has worked thus far to try to restore it....some one recommended I change the name of my phone and then try to sync it with my car...

    Thank you...this was a suggestion from a blog regarding the Bluetooth problem that has resulted from the most recent upgrade---lost the audio capabilities suddenly in my car as have other people and there is nothing that Apple has had me do that has restored it!  I am not a very happy camper regarding this dilemma!  thank you for your help though!

    How do you change the name on how your seen on air drop?

    When the ipod is plugged in and showing up in the left sidebar in iTunes (under devices), click once on the name in the sourcelist, and pause with the cursor hovering over the name for about a second. The name should become editable for you.

  • 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 can you change your security question for I tunes?

    How can you change your security question for I tunes?

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • How do you change your thumbprint for iPhone 5s?

    How do you change your thumbprint for the iphone 5s?

    Go to Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode, enter your passcode, then Turn Passcode Off will delete all current fingerprints. You can then turn passcode back on and enter fingerprints.
    Rather than deleting, you can also add the same fingerprint a second time via "Add a fingerprint" in Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode, enter your passcode, then Touch ID.

  • How do you change your apple id on your iphone 5

    how do you change your apple id on your iphone 5. I also increased storage and cannot update to latest software upgrade! ANNOYING!!!!
    Yes, I logged in and out of the Ap Store and it is correct on that end. I have signed in on my PC too and connected cell. I am out of tactics to resolve! Please help!

    If your phone is signed into an old ID and you are trying to change it to an updated version of the old ID, do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  When finished goThen go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

    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

        b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
            and service.
