HT5661 How do I change the owners name. It's under my husbands name but it's really my ipad.

I bought a iPad 2 last year and somehow it was put in my husbands name not mine. I want to know how to take his name off of it and use my name.

Hi Abbyzoey03,
If you mean change the device's name, this article can help:

I have had an iphone 3, 4, 4S, and now a 5. Every picture I have ever taken is saved as "photo". How do I change the auto naming format to a more sequential name?

There is no way to change this.

How can I change the OWNER of a table?

How can I change the OWNER of a table entr2009mm ?
Resp. the OWNER of all TABLES whose tablename match the pattern *2009* ?

Hello,
There're different posiibilities, Export/Import can do it.
But, if it's not a too large Table, you can use CTAS (from a user with DBA privilege for instance).
Create Table <schema_target>.<table_name> as select * from <shema_source>.<table_name>;Then, you have to recreate the dependent objects (Index, ...) and drop the Source Table.
If you have a set of Tables, it's better to use Export/Import.
Hope this help.
Best regards,

How do I change the owner's name for all Apple/iTunes/iCloud applications?

The name for my iPhone device and all Apple related things I log into, the owner name is my father's name -- however, since it is my device and my phone and I use all relating applications, I would like for it to be underneath my name. How do I change the overall name for my entire Apple account?

Go to system preferences and the sharing tab, then change the "computer name".
That's not a problem for anything.
If you had links from the other computer in the name.local format, you'll just need to update them.

How do you change the owner of a folder?

Hello,
I'm having a very difficult time finding an answer to this question. I have a brand new xserve (10.5.2) up and running fine with a single web site with wikis and blogs enabled. I can get to the web page and the wikis with no problems.
The problem is, the default folder for the web home page and the wiki information are on the system drive. I need to have those folders on another partition. I created a folder called /Collaboration and one called /Webdocs on the partition on which I need these folders.
When I put a copy of index.html into the webdocs folder, the web site shows up fine in a browser window. Wikis show as being "disabled" though. The folder for the wiki files has me as the owner since I created it. I've read on a few posts in these forums that the owner of that Collaboration folder needs to be "teamserver" however, I am unable to change to that using Get Info, like I could with a Tiger machine.
Could someone please tell me how to do this? Thanks.

I've got a similar problem:
I'm attempting to follow the directions in the Upgrading and Migrating Guide for Leopard. The Mac has two hard drives in it. Batman contains the active server running 10.4.11. Magic is the hard drive that will run 10.5.2.
Since I'm moving from one hard disk to another (as opposed to an entirely different Mac), things ought to be fairly easy. But not for me. ;(
What I'm trying to do: Migrate the mail database. (I have managed to import users and groups; only the mail service will run on this machine.)
Problem: I can't change the owner and group settings on the various files in the var/imap and var/spool/imap folders (for example, so that they are owned by system or _cyrus, with group wheel or mail and everyone set to read only).
The owner and/or group often shows up as unknown (which is to be expected with the migration to a different hard drive). But how can I change these permissions?
Or is there a way to use a command to copy them from one disk to another? I tried ditto, but didn't get the syntax right (the files were copied to the same level as the imap folder rather than within it) and now I have a bunch of files owned by nobody that I can't delete because I can't change the owner.
TIA,
mm

How do I change the "Owner" of my Business Objects Reports

Here is my problem.
When we upgrade Business Objects we 'convert' a large number of reports to the BO XI rel2 version of the reports. During this convertion process all the reports were switched to be 'owned' by usercode 'Administrator'. Our users are now wanting to move/change/delete these reports and they can't because they are not the owner.
So we need to switch this owner. Problem is the only way we can find to do this is to copy the report to a new name and delete the old one. This is very time consuming. Also many of our users are not priviledged to delete reports that they don't own. Therefore our administrators are the only ones that can do the delete step.
It seems like I should be able to logon to the system as 'Administrator' and change the owner of the reports (similiar to doing a chown command in Unix) to whoever I want. There however doesn't appear to be a way to do that in Infoview or the Central Management Consule.
Is there a simple easy way to do this?? I have thousands of report to change.
Thanks Bart

It's possible via the Enterprise SDK, if you have a Java or .NET programmer.

How do I change the owner of my group chat

I need to change the owner of our chat group (or add more admin to the group) so other users can remove users from the chat group. Currently the only person can remove users from the group is the person who created the group. Any help greatly appreciated.

Try having the chat creator who has the permissions do "/setrole [Skype Name] MASTER" for someone they would like to add as a mod

How do I change the language of Apple Mail under OS 10.8?

I want to change the language used in Apple Mail (I have a French language operating system so instead of "On Sep 3, 2012 XY wrote..." it says "A 3 Sept 2012, XY a ecrit..."
How do I change the language (for Apple Mail only)?
And as we are on the subject, is there a way to personalise the email attribution at all? Eg. to just say "XY [[email protected]] 12/03/09 12:13".
Thanks for any insights!

Bought a used nano. how do i change the owners name?

Hi,
Changing the name is quite simple.
Connect your iPod to your mac and then open itunes ( if using windows download itunes)
Once the ipod is detected in itunes simply double click the ipod's name and change it to whatever you want.

HOW DO I CHANGE THE OWNER'S NAME ON MY MACS?

After migrating a MacBook Pro system to a Mac Pro, I´ve the same name on both computers. That´s a problems for Mobile Me, sharing, etc. Is it possible to change both (I need just one, but I want to change both) computer´s names?
MacBookPro_X
MacPro_Y
What are the implications of that change (if possible) for Mobile Me, Sharing, Printers, Scanner, External HDD, Applications, etc. Do I need to operate other changes in order to prevent problems?
Thanks very much.

Go to system preferences and the sharing tab, then change the "computer name".

I know this is sooo basic, but how do I change the owner name?

Sorry for such a basic question. I just bought this for my daughter and set it up and it has my name at the top toolbar and I want to change it to her name. Thanks.

The "Computer Name" is changed in Sharing preferences. The user's "Long Name" may be changed in Accounts preferences along with the account password. But changing the "Short Name" which is the username attached to the Home folder (/Users/username/) must be changed by following the instructions in this article: Macworld | Changing the short username in Leopard.
The name displayed in the Finder's menu bar only appears if you have turned on Fast User Switching. You can disable this feature in the Accounts preferences - click on lock icon and authenticate, then click on the Login Options button. Uncheck the Fast User Switching option.

How do I change the owners name on my computer?

I purchased this computer in 2010 and later sold it. The person stopped making payments and I had to take it back. Now I need to remove the name/ information and replace it with my name/information. Can it be done and how do I do this? The other name does not show in the user accounts but every time I save something the name pops up and it drives me crazy. I know, its a "old computer" ... Thanks

There has to be a designated User account. What program is an example of the problem during a "save".
Options:
Simply do a complete Recovery and turn the system back to new out of the box.
Create a new user (you). The delete the previous user account.

Your phone number is still linked to yoru AppleID & iMessage.
On the iPhone, Settings > Messages, turn off iMessages.
Also, follow these instructions -> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661
Then your husband will follow the setup procedure using his AppleID & his personal info.
