HT3965 tried the steps to change the name on the device

I tried the step to change the name on my device by going to settings, general, about, and then tap on the name and it will not highlight.

That only works for iOS 5 and later. You have to connect the iPod to your computer and click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and change the name like I said in my reply to your other post and by that method in the link you cited.

  • Change db name in dataguard

    Hello
    Has anyone experience changing database name(including datafile locations),sid,data and control file location in operational dataguard setup
    My understanding following below steps
    1)shutdown primary and standby (stop managed recovery)
    2)change db name in init.ora of primary and standby change database name control file location
    3)create control file for primary from trace(script) make changes for db name and file locations
    4)mount and open primary database
    5)create standby control file
    6) transfer standby control file to standby
    7) mount stand by database and start manage recovery
    let me know if these steps can change database name and file locations without any error
    Thanks

    I would think the control file would have to know about the change.
    I would consider the DBNEWID Utility to change the database name if I had to.
    If you change the database name the DBID will change.
    I'm thinking it would require a standby rebuild.
    Here's some more info:

    My MacBook Pro keeps making copies of a document that I am trying to save. I don't want to duplicate the file. I only want to save it on both my hard drive and my external hard drive. I do not want to change its name for every save, which the computer seems insistent on doing. Help!!

    I did not create the file to be read-only. I created to be able to continue to add to it as I work on it.

    Sounds like a permissions problem ie read only.
    If running repair permissions from your DiskUtility.app does not sort it,
    Someone should jump in here with erudite and concise fix.

  • I tried to change the name of my device and now I cant sync anything and it says there is a problem with the disk and when I changed the name back it still said the same thing so I restored my ipod (not from itunes but on the ipod itsself)

    And now its saying my ipod is corrupt. None of my stuff was erased from itunes it was only erased from my ipod so why am I not able to just sync everything back onto my ipod? why is it doing this now? I think this is ridiculous that just changing one name would do this much damage.

    There is a backup plan after doing the Restore.  Read this.

  • DLL Adapter: Change function name & params without unloading the DLL

    Hi,
    I'm using teststand adapters API to dynamically build a DLL call step. Each dll function is called thru this "DLL Manager" sub-sequence. 
    Tried 2 methods (here is an abstract of the code): 
    1. ActiveX steps: 
    CommonCModule.ModulePath = myDllpath
    CommonCModule.FunctionName = myFunction  (note: this call unload the previously loaded DLL)
    Module -> LoadPrototype
    for( to set params)
    2. Statement steps: 
    RunState.Sequence.Main["Call DLL function"].TS.SData.Call.LibPath = myDllpath
    RunState.Sequence.Main["Call DLL function"].TS.SData.Call.Func = myFunction (note: this one not, but the info seems to not be updated => The new function is not called properly)
    Module -> LoadPrototype
    for( to set params)
    The two methods don't have exactly the same behavior, but work well for the 1st function that I call or work well if I unload the dll after step execute. 
    However, is there a way to use these steps (or others) to setup the step, but without unloading the DLL between each call. In my test sequence, I have to OpenConnection with the UUT before launching my commands, so the dll must not be unloaded to keep the connection opened... 
    e.g. 
    1) OpenConnection()  => This function keeps the communication handle with the device
    2) myCommand1()
    3) myCommand2()
    4) CloseConnection()
    Thank you for help
    C.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi all, 
    To recap:
    I'm looking for a method to dynamically loads and executes C/C++ DLL functions without unloading the DLL between each call. I already have a DLL manager that dynamically loads and executes dll functions, but it unloads the DLL between each call even if I set the unload option to: "Unload when sequence file is unloaded"...
    The problem is: 
    When I change the name of the function to execute (using the CommonCModule.FunctionName property), teststand automatically unloads the DLL before applying the change. Therefore, I can't open a connection handle with my UUT using one function and sends my commands with the others...
    To help you with the understanding of my issue:
    I created a simple example that will let you experiment the problem that I try to describ... You will notify that TestStand unloads the dll even if I don't request it... 
    1) download the attached zip file
    2) extract it anywhere
    3) open sequence file "dll_called_dynamically.seq"
    4) read comment of the first step of the sequence
    >> To analyse the case:
    >> 1) Break and run the sequence using step-by-step (use F10)
    >> 2) Run one iteration of the loop to execute the dll once, ,
    >> 3) Execute launch_listdlls.bat and verify in the outputfile.txt that the dll has been loaded (search for testlib.txt)
    >> 4) Then, step over the step "Set Dll Function Name to call"
    >> 5) Execute launch_listdlls.bat and you will notify that the dll has been unloaded... ...
    The testlib.dll file provided in the zip file is a basic dll that I used to confirm my test engine. Mainly, it only performs additions on the variables passed as argument to the dll. 
    The provided batch file executes the free application ListDlls.exe and create an outputfile.txt listing all currently loaded dll.
    Please note that I use TestStand 2013
    Thank you very much for your help,
    C.

  • Forgot my adminpassword, i have tried the reboot with initial disk doesn't work i can't downlad anything, I am able to log on but the name and password to get in my computer doesn't work for admin password. i am about to give up any suggestions?macbook10

    forgot my adminpassword, i have tried the reboot with initial disk didn't work, i am able to get into my computer with name and password, but this same name and password doesn't work as an administrators password when i want to download or change things.
    do you have any suggestions? Im about to give up, i can't even access wireless have to use a dsl
    pretty sad

    ... this same name and password doesn't work as an administrators password when i want to download or change things.
    It's probably that your Keychain password is not the same as your login password. If you configured your computer to log you in automatically, you may not have used your login password in so long you forgot it.
    There is no way to retrieve the "login" Keychain password, but you can reset the Keychain from the Preferences menu: select it in the Keychain Access menu and select "Reset My Default Keychain". This will create a new, empty Keychain but the old one will be saved should you ever remember its password.
    The result of this is that you will have to supply passwords for everything that requires it, since without your Keychain they will no longer automatically fill themselves. However, once you supply them and store them in your new Keychain, they will be remembered.

  • Help. I accidentally formatted by the device name not the volume name when trying fresh install osx Mountain lion.

    I was trying to do a fresh instal of Mountain Lion. By fresh I mean clean.
    Firstly, my iMac disc drive isn't really working to well, so I have Mountain Lion on a usb.
    I started up and held the option key.
    Entered into disc utility mode, and started doing everything correct.
    Then near at the end I when i'm required to select a start up disc it doesnt show anything... Help?
    I checked around online and saw this tutorially and notice I had done something different.
    http://macs.about.com/od/MountainLion/ss/How-To-Perform-A-Clean-Install-Of-Os-X- Mountain-Lion-On-A-Startup-Drive.htm
    on page 2. where it says
    When Disk Utility opens, select your Mac's startup volume from the list of devices. If you never changed its name, the startup volume will be listed as Macintosh HD. Be sure to select the volume name and not the device name, which will usually be the name of the physical drive, for instance, "500 GB WDC WD5."
    I think I may have selected the device name. Is this the cause of my problem?
    Can I fix this ? Please help?

    Ok, I realized that won't work, I don't think, because you can't enable it on your Mac.
    However, if you have another Mac, you can use Firewire Target Disk Mode to install. Boot your Mac while holding down the T key. You will see a FireWire symbol on the screen. Then, connect the two with a Firewire cable. Your Mac hard drive will show up on the other. Try to install onto that.
    This may not work, depending on the other Mac. If it is similar to yours, it should.
    I'm not sure if you can do it the other way. If you put the DVD into the other Mac and boot it into Target Disk Mode, then boot yours holding down the option key, you may be able to select the DVD on the other Mac as the startup.

  • Changing Users Name - different from the other post below

    I want to change my home name under the places folder. It's not my account name that can be viewed in the preferences under account. When I got this new MacBook Pro and went thru the set up, somehow I must have agreed to use the name that is next to the house icon under places in the finder sidebar. I really don't know where they got it from and when I search the whole computer all that comes up is the user folder. I tried to rename the name but it won't let me. There has to be somewhere I can change that name short of clearing out the contents of the MacBook and loading a new system from the supplied start up disk.

    Hi,
    Just to amplify -
    An account actually has two names, the "long name" (now called "Full Name" in System Preferences), and the ""short name" (normally a single word in lower case, called "Account Name" in System Preferences when you first set up an account).
    When you set up a user account and enter your "Full Name," the system will suggest an Account Name (the "short name"), and you have *just this one chance* to change it:
    Once set, the short name becomes the name of your home folder (the house icon in Finder) and is not easily changed. You can't just change the home folder name, because the short name is also an intrinsic part of your user account. However if you very much want to change the short name, there are a few ways to do this. Apple's method is here:
    *Mac OS X: How to change user short name or home directory name*
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1428?viewlocale=en_US
    It's somewhat complicated as you will see, and changing the short name this way can sometimes introduce a few permissions glitches. You could still try it, or since your Mac is still new, you might instead consider wiping the HD and starting over.

    I have just changed my iPad mini password a day ago, and when trying to access it today it worked fine until about 4:30 (GMT) when I could not access the device using the correct password. I am absoloutley 100% sure it's correct.Additional details:I was last using Kik messenger before it stopped working.I was sitting less than two foot away from the PS3 my brother was playing.I'm 14 but I'm not some spoilt kid who gets iPhones and iPads from his parents to mess around with, I have got important coursework and homeworks on there.Any help would be great Thanks.

    Hello ConfusedLlama
    If the password is not working to get into your iPad mini, you would need to follow the steps to restore it. If you have a back up through iCloud or through iTunes, you can restore from that back up and it would not bring back the passcode unless it is encrypted.
