I also would like to change my User Name

I'm hoping a host will contact me so that I can change my user name from my full name to simply my first name or a nickname.
Thanks

Hello Tom,
If you mean your Community name here, i'm afraid you cannot.   Or at least it would be a very rare event.   I have heard of one change recently because the name concerned was an embarrassment, but as I said, it's very, very rare.   I will draw the host's attention to your post.

  • We have ten IPADs now and would like to add the users name to

    We have ten IPADs now and would like to add the users name to our AT&T Bill for each IPAD. My problem is these IPADs are all over the US can AT&T or Apple care see the email address that each IPAD has if so I will just name them that. I talked to AT&T and they said I would need to talk to apple care and transferred me to them but the wait is more than 15min and I don't want to be on hold if they can't help me????
    Thanks

    Call in or visit a store with both the account owner of your account, and the account that has the line you want to add present and ask to do an Assumption of Liability to transfer the line to your account.  It'll be an easy process, no fees.

  • I would like to change the owners name on my ipad2 to my daughters name and credit. Could someone help me figure this out?

    I would like to change the owners name on my ipad2 to my daughters name and credit. Could someone help me figure this out?

    Sign out from Find My Phone in iCloud, and sign out from your Apple ID in Settings/iTunes & App Store
    Then setup as a new phone with iTunes and when your Daughter sets it up for the first time she can add or set up her own Apple ID.
    Cheers

  • I bought my iMac Pro on ebay and would like to change the owner name to my own.

    I bought my iMac Pro on ebay so did not get the chance to go through the Set up from the very beginning. I've noticed 2 consequences;  one is that the name of the user is not my own. The second is that when I go to facebook her name and password are in the log in boxes.
      How can I change it to my own name?
    I am not sure what operating system I have or where it says this.

    By far the best thing to do is to do rannable's last suggestion and get rid of the previous user's account. Something they should have done instead of leaving personal information and passwords where you can easily get at them.
    Open the System Preferences and click on the Accounts icon. Click the lock at the lower left. You will need to know admin password of the previous owner. Click the + button to create a new Administrator account. Fill in whatever name you want the account to have and choose a password. Click Create Account.
    Log out and log back in to your new account. Go into the System Preferences again and the Accounts section. Click the lock button again, only this time, you would use the password for the new account you just created since that's what you logged into OS X with.
    Highlight the old account and click the - button to delete it. Click the last radio button, "Delete the home folder" to completely remove the old account from the hard drive. Your new admin account will be the only one left.
    Your new account will make the Mac look and behave like it just came out of the box since all of the desktop preferences will be the defaults. Customize to your liking.

  • I would like to change my Short Name. But no edit menu in the directory to choose root.

    Like the title says, pretty self explanatory. I bought this MacBook from a friend of mine and her name is still on the Home Icon (short name). I get the idea of how to change it but once I get to the Directory Utility to enable the Root User, I find that there is NO edit menu. So now I'm somewhat at an impasse on how to do this so I've decided to come here for some help. Sorry if this has been asked a million times, I've gone through some other topics somewhat similar and nothing remotely came close to this issue. I find it odd that I don't have an Edit Menu in the DU. If there is a different way to this then please let me know, if not then please walk me through this. Thanks!

    Have a look at this link - hopefully it sorts it out for you...

  • Would like to change user name

    I would like to change my user name for the "Apple Support Communities".
    I don't see how this can be done form the info I see on the webSite.
    Does anyone know how to accomplish this.
    Thank you,
    Eddie

    You cannot...
    You may, however, set up a new account.  The old one will slowly fade to the archives.

  • How do I change the user name that appears next to the House icon on the Finder Window?

    I'm giving my old iMac to my father-in-law and would like to change the user name from mine to his.
    I've edited my Account info and changed it to his, but this does not seem to change the name in the finder window.
    Many thanks.

  • I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s

    I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s and keep my same plan but switch to the Edge program. Is this possible? I don't think I should have to pay an early termination fee or anything like that since my phone has become almost unusable. I know under normal circumstances you have to wait 2 yrs to upgrade but due to the update and the poor service I'm now getting I hope Verizon can make an exception. Thank you.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

    Well, if you normally use the lowest resolution, then yes.

    I can't answer that question. We don't work for Apple here, we're all just plain users who contribute our time, but you can send Mac OS X Feedback

    when starting my mac air a lot os utilities opens, I would like to change the start up, how?

    System Preferences - Users and Groups - Login Items - remove any that you don't want on startup.
    Don't forget also that Lion will automatically restart any apps you had open when you shut down, unless you untick the "Reopen windows when logging back in" tickbox that appears.

  • Would Like to Change "appleuser" to my name but don't know how. Help?

    Hi,
    For starters, I have a late 2009 Macbook (white) and am running Mountain Lion (10.8.2). Anyway, I purchased this computer off of someone else and I would like to change what I assume is the home directory (little house logo) from "appleuser" to my name. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find anything online that is helpful to me. I saw one thing that talked about changing the root login or something like that, but I couldn't even find it when following the steps that were given.
    Anyway, like I said I bought the computer off of someone else and seeing the "appleuser" drives me insane so I'd like to change it. Anybody know how?

    Open the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences, create a new user account, and log in with it; alternatively, after unlocking the pane, control-click that account, choose Advanced Options, and change it there.

    I think this is completely unacceptable and he should be banned, because as far as I know, a ddos attack is illeagel, and I would like to get the police involved. Thank you, and I hope something can be done.

    dear Xibi,
    you can use web item 'navigation block'.
    user then can choose which keyfigure(s) to be show in the report, also capability to drilldown etc.
    hope this helps.

  • I set up iPhoto v9.6 to copy items to library. Now I would like to change it to not copy. Do I have to start completely over? I have 106GB of photos and tags in my library. Will I lose all that work?

    I set up iPhoto v9.6 to copy items to library. Now I would like to change it to not copy. Do I have to start completely over? I have 106GB of photos and tags in my library. Will I lose all that work? Originally I thought by copying items to library I would be making an exact copy of my originals and that would serve as a duplicate or backup copy. My originals are on my EHD#1 and my iPhoto library is on my EHD#2. But now I realize that I can not view my iPhoto library unless my EHD#2 is connected to my computer (duh!!) So now I would like to NOT copy times to library and I want to have the library in the Pictures folder on my laptop HD. So I guess my question is do I have to start completely over? Is there some way to salvage all the work I've done so far?

    Yes you would have to start over from scratch.
    But you should really think this through very carefully. Experienced users do not recommend iPhoto used in this mode, and with very good reasons. Among them
    1. It's more work for exactly no gain
    2. It's unreliable - especially - when the library is on one volume and the photos are on another. One change to the path between the files and the library and you'll be reconnecting every photo in the Library back to the database, one by one.
