HTPC lcd display changing device names at boot

I'm having troubles with configuring LCD panel on my HTPC casing lcd display.
It is constantly swapping between /dev/lcd0 and /dev/lcd1 device names every boot, making it work only sometimes, when the device name matches the device described in LCDd.conf
I have Antec Veris remote casing with imon driver. Is there possibility to force system to use only either /dev/lcd0 or /dev/lcd1

Use udev rules to make a persistent name (like how /dev/sda can also be found in /dev/disk/by-*) and then direct LCDd.conf to that persistend name rather than /dev/lcd*
This will be a good place to start your quest: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ud … vice_names

The same situation when I want to send photo from mobile phone to my notebook. I didnt find any option how to change it.
When I send photo from notebook to the mobile phone the notebook name (device name) is displayed. Try to check external device properties. Maybe you will find there way to change it.

I have an airport extreme 2013. Why does my airport utility sometimes display IP addresses and other times the names of the devices? I want it to always display the device names.

The utility has had less and less useful information .. it might be time to simply find a different utility.

This is very popular.. I do not know of what works well on Mac OS because i have installed 5.6 utility which of course has far more info than the later toy version. Plus using an Asus router which has excellent listing of all the clients.
Sometimes beating yourself up to make apple routers do what you want is easier solved with lateral thinking.

How to change device names?

This questions revolves around three V490s.
- All are connected to the same raid.
- All have cards in the same slots.
- One box had only 1 internal drive, two came with 2 internal drives.
- All have stmsboot enabled.
- When doing a format, 2 boxes show the paths to be the same (ie, c6txxxxx), 1 box shows the path to be different (ie, c4txxxx).
How do I go about changing the device name so that the c4txxx on the one box matches the c6txxxx devices name on the other two boxes?
- I have inserted a secondary drive into the 1 box, rebooted with -r. No difference.
- I removed the path_to_inst, rm c4txxx* entries from /dev/[r]dsk, and rebooted with -ras options. No difference.
- I manually edited the path_to_inst to use same device numbers (entry in 2nd column) as is used in the other 2 boxes' path_to_inst files, rm c4txxx* entries from /dev/[r]dsk, rebooted -r. Still no difference.
- I tried using a path_to_inst direct from one of the 2 boxes that have the matching device names. No difference.
I'm quickly running out of options. The device names are supposed to be the same for the Oracle ASM application. Anyone have any ideas or experiences they can share concerning this matter? Thanks.

In single user mode, edit /etc/path_to_inst and renumber the device.
You probably want to halt and do a boot -r after this.
The best way to figure out which lines to change.
Run format and note the device path for the controller in question.
Then search for that line in the file.
This is all completely unsupported and at your own risk. You might want to experiment on a test server before doing it to a machine you care about....

How to change device name in Windows Explorer

Hi Guys
I need some help please, my Ipad 2 was updated on another friends machine. now when i plug it into my PC windows picks it up as his device name even though the devine name is corect in iTunes. Can anybody please help with correcting this?
Thanks

I have the same problem, and I can say none of these methods work.
I have the device named properly in iTunes (it's the same name I can see in settings -> general -> about), however the original name given to the device is still seen in Windows Explorer.
Apparently it is some unexpected "feature" Apple has forgotten to take care of.
Let's hope they change it in the next iOS update...

Set or Change Device Name in Profile Manager

Hello,
Is it possible to set or change the device name of an enrolled device using profile manager?
I notice WGMs old 'Set computer name to computer record name' is still there under Login Window options, but I couldn't find away to actually change the record name.
Am I missing something obvious?

The only way I have found to change the device name in Profile Manager is to change it on the device itself, then wait for the updated info to reach PM.
The option to "set the computer name to computer record name" will set the computer name to the name of a computer record that matches in Open Directory (based on MAC). This option would allow you to change the device name in Profile Manager in a round about way... change the computer record name in OD, wait for the change to make it's way to the computer, then back up to the Profile Manager. In my experience, this doesn't take too long.

How do I change device name after connecting to old machine?

That's right, I've gone ahead and connected my new power book to my old dual G5 in order to get the information onto the new machine.
Now, my new machine has my Dual G5 name as it's device name.
How can I change this so my power book has the correct name?

I wish that was it, but that only changes the name of the "Hard Drive", not the actual device name.
In other words, when browsing the network there's 2 computers with same name.
Any other suggestions?

Changing Device Name

How can I change the device name of my iphone? I have the original iphone.

When your iPhone is plugged into iTunes, just click the name of your phone. Wait a second, and click the name a second time. It should allow you to now edit the name of your phone.

Change Device Name?

Interestingly, all three of the previous replies are correct, yet confusing to interpret. You have a renaming problem for two different types of equipment: 1) a camera, which is a "device" as per Xfinity (and not a "zone/sensor"), and 2) one or more infrared sensor(s) (a "light sensor" as you have called it), which is a "zone/sensor" as per Xfinity. So, your light (infrared) sensor(s) is(are) ZONE/SENSOR(s), and your camera is a DEVICE. Cable guy is correct in that only a technician can rename a ZONE/SENSOR. However, you can rename a camera with either the touchscreen or the website by choosing "Settings", then choosing "Home Devices" (NOT "Zone/Sensors"), and then "Cameras". As for your sensor problem, I suspect you might be able to have a technician rename the infrared sensors over the phone, rather than paying for a home service call. But one never knows these days! Good luck!

If you go to your touchscreen and go to the Settings menu, you should be able to access "Home Devices," which should lead to the ability to edit the names of your devices. Only technicians can Add new devices of this kind but that will change in the coming months (self-install of lights, cameras and thermostats is coming soon).

When I paired my Iphone5-S to car Bluetooth it display my Outlook username, How to change it to Device Name?

When i connect my Iphone to the car Bluetooth, it display my outlook/system username, whereas the device name & name in my apple ID is different. I want it to display my device name, how to do this?

As amy_lou said, iTunes will recognize both phones as different devices. If they have the same name, rename one of them so it is easier to recognize which is which. This explains how to do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3965.

How do I change the name on a cell phone?

I accidentally added my daughter's new iphone onto ITunes and it thought that it was my new phone. How do I get it to say her phone name when I plug into ITunes. Also, how come I cannot set up her voice mail (is it because it thinks it is my new phone)?

Can I disable the LCD screen from displaying the Network Name or Password of my device?

Can I disable the LCD screen from displaying the Network Name or Password of my device? I feel that having this information readily available to any who can turn on my device is a security flaw.
I have change the network name and password and would like to secure that information .

Worked with VZW tech support and finally found where you can disable or mask the display of the network name and password on the Jetpack LCD screen. You need to access the admin screen of your jetpack (http://my.jetpack/) . From there, navigate to Jetpack Settings --> Click on Wifi tab -- Click on the Wi-Fi Options link halfway down the page and it will show the two settings that control the display of network name and password.
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words...here are screen shots showing how to get to these settings. ...
The LCD display will show ********* for the network name and password if the two checkboxes above are unchecked. I really think these settings should be disabled to be begin with.
Oh well...posting here to share with those interested...
