How to change the name of my device?

I just got an iPhone.  I want to change the name of my device to "Lisa's iPhone" from "Lisa's iPod".  How do I do that?  I have already gone through Setup Assistant w/the new phone and fear I missed my opportunity at that time.   Thanks.

Click the name in the side panel in iTunes and type the new name.
Or on the device go to Settings > General > About > Name > and type the new name.

  • Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express

    Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express please? I now work in a UN compound and my network is my own name, would prefer some anonymity so seeking to change the wifi network name that others might see.

    Hi mkl1961,
    Happy Holidays!  The article below will explain how to reset your Airport Express and change the network and base station names back to their defaults.  
    Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT3728
    What default settings will my AirPort base station have after a hard or factory default reset?
    AirPort base stations are set to request an IP address by DHCP.
    AirPort base station passwords are "public."
    AirPort base station names revert to "base station xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    AirPort base station network names are "Apple Network xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    *A MAC (Media Access Control) address, also known as a "network ID," is a unique hardware identification number for a network port.  You can find the wireless and Ethernet network IDs on the printed label on the bottom or side of the device.

  • How to change the "name of column" property of an text item in runtime?

    How to change the "name of column" property of an text item in runtime?
    I look the properties of items in help and found nothing about this!
    It's possible?

    Hi,
    an other solution is change the block property QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_TYPE from "Table" to "Sub-query" , than change at run time the property QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME.
    First create block and add items
    The QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME will be for ex. "Select 'A' as col1, 'B' AS col2, 'C' as col3 from dual"
    Set into items the column name property to col1 , col2 ...
    At run time change the query to "Select 'Z' as col1, 'X' as col2 , 'Y' as col3 from dual"
    in this way you can change the source of column value.
    Caution because if you change value type from varchar2 to date you must cast date into varchar2.
    May be that this way is valid only for view data not for insert-update, i don't remember.
    bye

    Will someone please tell me how to change the name of a folder I created in "Pages" and saved to the "Cloud"? Thanks.

    Go to the open dialog in Pages and select iCloud.
    Click on the folder that you created on iCloud to open the folder.
    On the lower half of the window (the open folder) click on the name of the folder.
    Once you click and select the folder's name it should be editable.

  • HT204053 Our Apple ID is ok and functioning.  However, I just came on as the IT for the group and cannot find how to change the name.

    Our Apple ID is ok and functioning.  However, I just came on as the IT for the group and cannot find how to change the name.

    Assuming you mean the personal name associated with the account, as opposed to the login (which you can change if it's not an @icloud.com. @me.com or @mac.com address) you can change this at http://appleid.appla.com . Click on 'Manage your account' and then on 'Edit' next to 'Your name' and the name currently associated with the ID.

  • Is there a way to change the name of audio device inputs/outputs?

    Hi there hope someone can help me. I use my macs primarily for music production and I have several audio cards both USB and PCI on my MacPro and I use external audio cards with my MacBook Pro both running Mountain Lion. As I have many different outputs I would like to rename them from their defaults, in other words I would like to rename "Headphones" to "Studio Monitors" and so on.
    I have created Aggregate Devices which almost works as a solution as its possible to name them easily. The problem is with an Aggregate Device, the system Volume Control becomes greyed out and I can no longer change the volume using the Apple Keyboard.
    I'm hoping that someone might be able to tell me which system file holds the names for the Audio Inputs and Outputs so that I can basically apply a bit of a hack to change my inputs and outputs to something a little more transparent? I don't mind applying tweaks to plist files etc as I have done this numerous times in the past to tweak some aspects of OS X.
    The other solution would be to tweak the Aggregate Device settings to enable the volume control. Either option would be great especially when I am working on projects with friends who would be able to choose to listen to audio on a different set of monitors or headphones without having to ask me constantly which output is which.
    All help appreciated!

    These directions may be useful in the future but I was wondering how to change the actual name of the computer.
    You know when you log into your iMac and then it loads all of your preferences?
    Well at the very top of the login box, there is the name of your computer, I want to change that.
    Not short names for Home folders.
    Thank you though...
    Any other suggestions or solutions?

  • How to change the name of a group mms in iOS 8.1.2?

    I have a group of friends and we made a group mms to keep track of things. There are more than 8 people in this group so I get nonstop messages from everybody and I would like to be more organized and make a name for it. I looked up how to and I did as it said: "Go to the details page and scroll downward and a 'Subject' area should appear and that is where you change the name". This was added back when iOS 8 just came out, I'm wondering if it has changed since then or maybe it's a hardware problem?

    Hi Befromlondon,
    To change the name of the account - iOS calls that the description - go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > select the account > select the Account at the top > select Desctiption > delete the old name and enter the new one.
    It is similar to the process of setting up a new account, described in this article -

    What happens when you try to change the Shuffle's name from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes?
    Is your iPod set up to manually manage its contents.  For more information, see your iPod's User Guide.

  • Existing cross Reference: how to change the name of the file it refers to?

    Hi everybody,
    I am a professional translator.
    One client of mine sent me a complete FrameMaker 9 book file for translation.
    I translated the content via a CAT-Tool and now am in the process of checking if cross references and markers are ok directly into the file.
    I noticed that many cross references are linked to another file of the book. But in the process of translating each file separately, I gave them a slightly different name (I added the language at the end) so as to be able to recognise them eventually.
    Now I have this problem: I cannot find in the cross reference interface where to change the name of the file into the new one the cross reference is supposed to refer to.
    Am I right in wanting to change the file reference? If so, how do I do that?
    Or is it better to avoid this task and rename the translated file into their original names ? Would it work then?
    Thanks for your help.

    ... book file ...
    ...  each file separately, I gave  them a slightly different name (I added the language at the end) ...
    I'm guessing that you renamed the component files by means other than using the Edit > Rename File from the Book menu.
    If so, do over. Rename from the Book menu. It automatically revises all the cross-references in all the component files.
    In a Book, the only thing that's safe to rename with the file manager is the .book file itself.
