Manage Devices shows old device names.

I recently changed the names from my Computer (Windows 7, Service Pack 1), iPhone 4 and iPad 4. When I open iTunes 12.0.1.26 and go to accountinformation, I am able to see under manage devices my three devices. My computer (new name) iPad (still old name) iPhone (still old name). the name change from the computer has been adopted but my idevices still show the old names in brackets (). I removed them from the list via the remove button and added them in the iOS settings by switching the downloadbuttons for music and books to on but sadly no change. How do I manage that the manage devices register adopts the new names I have given these divices. Any help is appreciated.

My new iPad isn't even listed in the devices in my iTunes account. It also isn't listed in the left pane under devices with my iPhone and iPod Touch. It also won't sync to my iMac unless it is physically tethered. When I go to the sync button in Settings>General>iTunes Wi-Fi Sync it says: Sync will resume when iMac is available. My iMac is ALWAYS available. hmmm. I also did not get the low battery (red indicator, 20% dismiss) button when my battery got down to 20%. Also in iBooks, I have nothing showing even though I have quite a few books in my iBooks Library. Curiouser and curiouser..... Other than that? No problems at all, LOL.

Shared Photostream comments show old AppleID Name, even after changing it

My mother in law joined my shared photo stream. I invited her using her email address. When she joined, it showed my father-in-law's name instead of hers. When she posted comments, it showed up as my father-in-law's name instead of hers. After looking on these forums I found that the name that shows up when you accept a Shared Photo Stream is the name associated with your apple id.
She then went to look up her AppleID information and sure enough, it had her husband's name. She updated her Apple ID name to now be her name. I removed her from the shared photo stream and re-invited her. When she accepted, it now properly showed her name.
However, when she posts comments or likes my photos, it still uses my father-in-law's name and not the current name associated with the apple id (her name). It seems like my Shared Photo Stream cached her original name and is stuck using it for comments and likes.
I then tested creating a brand new Shared Photo Stream and I invited her. Upon accepting, it showed her current apple id name. Upon commenting it also shows her current Apple ID name. So the issue definitely appears to only affect any Shared Photo Streams that she subscribed to prior to the Apple ID name change. However, I already have a ton of photos in my original Shared Photo Stream so I don't want to simply delete and create a new one (although that would fix her problem).
Is there any way to "reset" the name that will be used in the existing shared photo stream's comments and "likes" to match the current apple id name (after it has been updated)? The "invitation" list shows the correct name but the comments and likes (even new ones) still show the old apple id name (before she updated it).
Should I recommend that she contacts support? Any other ideas?

No. A few things have happened though that improve the situation. My mother in law got a new iPad and her name shows up correctly if she comments from that device. Unfortunately I never heard back from anyone else after this post with any solution.

Operations manager console shows old alerts

Hi All,
I Have this issue regularly, I am using SCOM 2007 R2 CU4. But recently this issue has become very frequent. I see more number of old alerts rather than new alerts in my SCOM console. Below is a screen shot. Is there any specific reason for this ? If
yes, How can i overcome this issue.
I checked the Health of the databases (Both Opsmanager & Ops manager warehouse database). Both are healthy they have 0 consistency errors in them. And have enough free space in them.
Below is the SQL Query what is used to check them.
For OpsmanagerDB -
DBCC CHECKDB ('Operationsmanager')
For Ops manager Data warehouse:
DBCC CHECKDB ('OperationsmanagerDW')
Ops db has 16GB Free from total of 40GB.
Warehouse DB: 56GB Free from total size of 180GB.

Terminal shows old computer name (after migration)

After using migration assistant (over Ethernet) from a 2007 mini to a mid-2011 mini: the Terminal shows the old computer name in the prompt.
(Many other oddities -- every file action brings up "Finder wants to make changes" and requires a password, to move or copy or delete any file). I see this problem has been reported before over the years but I did not find any answer that didn't have further questions

Aha, changing it in "Sharing" seems to have worked for me (suggestion from 'Kappy' in the 2008 "Re: Migration: (UNIX) thread, although it did not work for others in that thread at the time):

When i updated my username on laptop, my i touch still showing "old" user name even after sync.

When i updated my userid at apple web site using my laptop, my i touch still showing "old" userid and will not accept "old" or new password even after sync.

What do you mean you "had to unlock it"? Do you mean you jailbroke it? If it was jailbroken and you updated iOS, then wiping it out is the natural consequence of that.

Create new Library still shows old Library names?

Old library was moved onto TCapsule. Create new Library does create
a new Library however all previous Library names are still there, (minus
the photos)
I need the new Library to show 2009 - Currently shows 2000, '01, '02 etc.

Please describe the steps you used to get where you are now. From putting the old library into TM to creating the new one and what do you see and were do you see it.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

When downloading files by internet download manager sometimes shows the file name of downloaded video as videoplayback instead of the original file name

when downloading video files by the ( internet download manager) most of times the file name downloaded as ( video playback ) instead of actuly name of the files
please let me know how to solve such problems?

can you please also contact IDM support about it?

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 to show devices names?

Hey guys, i've finally installed an Airport base station and an express for upstairs, though I noticed that the connected devices show the internal IP and not Name of device. ie: Jane's Iphone, Mike's Ipad Mini etc.. I've seen videos that show this and some articels say it only works with the old version of the aiport app which does not open under Mavricks. Any help will be appercitaed.

AirPort Utility's display of the device names does not appear to be a function of how long the Extreme and Expresses have been installed, it seems to be more of a function of the individual device activity and how long AirPort Utility has had to detect that information. The method Apple uses to provide that information isn't publicly available.
Edit: Having launched AirPort Utility a few moments ago, several devices changed from originally appearing as only IP addresses to human - readable names. Leave AirPort Utility open for a few minutes and determine if you observe the same results.
another Edit: A few moments later, all the devices are appearing with readable names. I did nothing other than to leave AirPort Utility running.

Profile manager enrolled device names

I have been playing around with profile manger on 10.7.3 enrolling and iPhone and a couple of iPads.
The iPhone enrolls correctly and the name in the devices tab shows the device name "xxx's iphone" and I can see the information about the device including encryption, apps installed etc.
Both iPads appear to enroll correctly however instead of showing "xxx's iPad" they show the device name of "New Device". I even tried pre-enrolling the device using the serial number and UUID and gave the device a meaningful name, however when then enrolling the device it accepts the enrollment and promptly chnages the name from the meaningful name back to "New Device".
I have tried this on both and iPad 2 and iPAd 3 running the latest IOS.
I also notice that the jobs that communicate with the device to collect the device informantion never complete, where they do for the iPhone.
I am sure this was working before the IOS 5.1 update.

I would try demoting your Open Directory server from Master to Standalone in the Server Admin app - there's an assistant in Server Admin > Open Directory > Settings > General > click the change button.
Once it's demoted to a standalone, restart.
From there, don't create an OD Master again - go to Profile Manager in Server.app and run through the wizard again. In the process, it will create an OD Master for you.
Hope that helps,
Chris

My new iPad mini does not show under manage devices

I just purchased a new iPad mini for my husband. I removed his old one from the section of iTunes that reads manage devices. And even though his new iPad mini is synced and backed up, now the new one does not show under manage devices.
Can anyone tell me how to get it to show up? I called Apple support and the lady trying to help me did not even know what I was talking about.
Thank you.

DCR Add Device shows Duplicate Device Name

When manually adding some devices via DCR Device Management I get the "Duplicate Device Name" error.
The names do not show in the DCR Device Management Selector. I have also done an Export of All Devices and the names are not in there either.
I have confirmed that the forward and reverse names and IP addresses resolve corerctly in DNS.
How/why would it complain of a duplicate name that doesn't seem to be in there?
This is LMS v3.2 CS v3.3.0
Thanks for any help,

The devices are as you suspect in the "Devices not configured in ACS report"
I think I see what's happenned. Looks like the devices were orginally added to LMS but at the time they were not correctly configured in ACS.
What has happened since is that the ACS configuration is now correct, but the devices have also been deleted from the LMS DCR.
So they are not showing in the DCR but they are showing in the "Devices not configured in ACS report".
I presume this is what is preventing them from being re-added, will they naturally age out of the ACS report somehow?

Hi - I've brought the new iphone 5 but can't download my music from my itunes account even though I have the latest version (10.7). All i can see is that my account is not showing the iphone 5 as a 'managed device' and i dont know how to get this added ?

Hi - I've brought my iphone 5 but cant seem to download my music from my itunes account onto it. I've downloaded the latest version of itunes as i heard this could be a problem but still no joy. The phone tries to sync when i plug it all in to the pc and even has the capacity bar showing about 12gb of audio but there is still nothing downloaded onto the phone.
The only thing i can see that might be causing the problem is that when i go into my itunes account it doesn't show that the iphone 5 is an option is the 'managed device' section but i dont know how i can add the new iphone 5 to this....
Can anyone please advise me on what to do ?
Many thanks !

How do I remove a device from iTunes that does not show up under "Manage Devices" in account?

My husbands macbook is logged in with his iTunes account. For some reason my iPad (linked with my account) keeps showing up on his macbook under his account. I went on his account and to manage devices and my iPad is not one of the devices listed. So how do I permanentaly delete my iPad from showing up on his account?

It is showing up in his iTunes library as all iDevices would.
That has nothing to do with his iTunes account.
My iPad device is not an option as a device being used by his apple ID.
It's not being used by his AppleID.
Select the iPad in his iTunes library.
Click the Summary tab.
Uncheck Sync this iPsd over wifi.
Uncheck Open iTunes when this Pad is connected.
Right click > Eject the iPad.

How do you remove an old device name from your iTunes account?

I have several old device names/backups on my iTunes that I want to remove. They were from old iPhones that we've turned into iPod's for my kids which we needed to create a new device name for them. So now when I restore a device, I have a list of about 10 different names to choose from.
How can I erase the old names/backups that we no longer use? I still have 3 on there that I want to keep though so I don't want to erase all of them.

iTunes Prefs > Devices.
Selec a backup and delete it there.

Manage Devices shows old device names.
