My Apple TV is displaying the wrong computer name. It is showing up as "j".  How do I change it?

Just recently my apple tv is displaying "j" as my computer name.  I did a restore and a reset on the apple tv but the problem still remains, also check itunes on my imac and evertything seems fine though.  Anybody have any ideas on how to fix this?

Try to remove history and bookmarks entries that are wrong and revisit the site(s).
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • I used the wrong email account when setting up ios8 iCloud drive, how can I change it on my iphone5?

    I used the wrong email account while setting up iCloud drive during the upgrade to ios8, how can I change it on my iphone5?

  • If I chose the wrong folder as defaulf for downloads to go to, how can I change it?

    I use download manager. I hit '''yes''' when asked if I wanted to make the folder shown as the default for future downloads of that type. I did not mean to do that. How can I change the default folder?

    Hi belladonna82,
    You should take a look at the [[Downloads window]] and [[Options window - General panel]] Knowledge Base articles. They will give you all the details you need. Unless you are talking about the default action and not the actual download folder? If so, you should look at [[Options window - Applications panel]].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Calendar app icon is displaying the wrong date

    For some reason on my iPhone's homescreen the icon for the Calendar app has today started displaying the wrong date.
    It should show today's date, Monday 6th but instead it reads Sunday 5th.
    What confuses me is that the phone does know the date is Monday 6th as the lock screen shows it correctly and also when I actually load the Calendar app it starts on the right date. Also, when I load the multi task bar the Calendar app icon there is correct. See the attached photo, which shows the Calendar app on the home screen (faded, middle left) displaying yesterdays date Sunday 5th, while the app icon in the multi task bar is correct, Monday 6th.
    Syncing the calendar with my iMac does not correct the error. Equally, turning the phone off and on again has not sorted it.
    Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the fault? And more importantly how to correct it?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the suggestion DaVBMan, sadly it didn't work. The only thing that did work was to wait until midnight and it corrected itself. In the mind of the phone it lived a whole day twice and then skipped one completely in order to get back on track. Very odd and also I have since discovered it has happened to a few of my friends too.
    It's not happened again so I have no idea what so ever what caused it. Fingers crossed it never recurs.

  • Mail app displays the wrong Inbox when you open it.

    This problem can be easily reproduced if you have more than one email account configured in iOS 4.x
    It should be extremely simple to fix with the next update. I see that this same problem has been mentioned before, but I couldn't update that thread because it's "archived." If you want Apple to fix this, please report the issue to Apple using one or more of the links below:

    Here's what I submitted...
    Subject:
    Simple software design issue in Mail app.
    Feedback Type:
    Design/Ease of Use
    Comments:
    Thanks for your work on making iOS better and better with each update! There is no option to provide general iOS feedback, so I'll submit this under "iPhone" and "iPod." I'm currently using the latest iOS (4.3.1).
    The native Mail app in iOS has had the Unified Inbox feature since iOS 4.0, which is very useful. However, there is a minor design flaw that could be easily resolved with a software update.
    My setup:
    I have 3 Exchange accounts on my device (Hotmail, Gmail[Default], Work). The Hotmail Inbox is empty at least 98% of the time because my Gmail account periodically downloads the messages. The only reason I have the Hotmail account entered on my device is to make sure I can see a message in "All Inboxes" even before my Google account retrieves it. On my device, the Gmail account is set as default for Mail and Contacts.
    The problem:
    I never intentionally select the Inbox for the Hotmail account because it should almost always be empty. I would simply view "All Inboxes." Still, half the time I open the Mail app, it shows the empty Hotmail Inbox. This is very annoying!
    I finally figured out how to reproduce it consistently:
    (must have more than one account configured)
    1) Launch the Mail app and back-up to the screen that shows the list of accounts / Inboxes (I usually try to leave it here when I'm done, hoping to see that screen the next time I open Mail).
    2) Without selecting a specific account or Inbox, push the Home button to exit the Mail app.
    3) Kill the Mail process from the multi-tasking menu.
    4) Open Mail again
    Mail will show whichever Inbox comes immediately after "All Inboxes", even if it's not your default account. In my case, it starts in the empty Hotmail Inbox every time...a folder that I never intentionally select. Each time, I have to go back to the list and tap "All Inboxes."
    So, if I leave Mail on the root screen before killing the process, it consistently displays the wrong Inbox the next time I open it. If I select an Inbox or "All Inboxes," it will remember that selection and show me that screen the next time I open Mail.
    What it should do:
    When Mail doesn't know which Inbox to display, it should...
    A. Start on the root screen with the list of accounts and Inboxes (preferred option).
    or B. Start in "All Inboxes" (secondary preference).
    or C. Start in the Inbox of the default account (not preferred, but better than showing an empty/unused Inbox).
    Thank you!

    Try this...
    Launch the Mail app.
    Navigate to the "Mailboxes" page (the page that lists all of your accounts).
    Tap "Edit" in the top right corner.
    Scroll down to the bottom section of the page, titled "ACCOUNTS".
    Drag the triple-bars on the right to reorder the accounts listed. The first account listed will be the one that the app launches to.
    Hope this helps, I went crazy trying to figure that out and it worked for me.

  • HT1539 How can a digital copy be used in a household with multiple apple ids, synced on the same computer?

    How can a digital copy be used in a household with multiple apple ids, synced on the same computer?  I want to put a digital copy on my device, and on my wife's device.
    Please help.

    you're welcome.
    actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close.  if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.

    got a iphone set the apple id n it was the wrong email address now i can't verifie it how do i delete and start over

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

    Hi JkeeneSoldano,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    From:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support

  • Mouse cursor displays the wrong icon

    My cursor still changes based on the context, like hovering over a link or in a text field, but displays the wrong icon.  After focusing a text field, the cursor is a reggular arrow in the text editor and turns to the text staff outside of it when it should be an arrow. 
    I just did a fresh install of 10.6.8 on a crucial m4 - ct256m4ssd
    I FOUND THAT RESIZING THE MOUSE CURSOR IN THE UNIVERSAL ACCESSS PREFERENCES temporarily restores the cursor to a size-adjusted mouse, until I do something like click in a text field.

    just re-install the os

  • Why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

    why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

    I had similar problem. My iPhone was always about 3 minutes faster than the correct time here in the UK which I found to be very irritating. It just came to a head because here in the UK we have just changed from British Summer Time back to standard GMT. This actually worked automatically except that the iPhone time still showed it to be about 3 minutes faster than GMT. However I have now cured the problem (almost) by going to
         Settings/General/ Date & Time/ and then selected the "Set Automatically" button.
    The clock then immediately jumped back 3 minutes and now the iPhone time is only about 10 seconds slow which is good enough for me.

  • IPhone displays the wrong song information

    Hello,
    Recently I have noticed that my phone often displays the wrong songs and information.  What I mean is, when I tap on an artist, it shows the wrong songs.  For example, if I listened to AC/DC and then try to change it and listen to Alice in Chains, the phone still displays the AC/DC songs.  This is very aggravating and I seem to be the only person who has this problem.  I checked the song info on itunes and everything is correct.  Any ideas?
    Thank you,
    Brad

    This has been happening to me for while now and would love to get an answer or fix.

  • The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?

    The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer (pc)  which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?  I am in Australia.
    I have just noticed the other discussion points - mine is set to Australia. 
    Dear Apple - as the day that the week starts on can depend on country and religion - how about making it an option that the user can change????

    I believe the week view on the iPhone is handled by the Region settings in the phone. I am not aware of any other manner to change it, as you can with Outlook.

    If it was setup using your iPhone and your Apple ID then as far as the iCloud team will be able to find out, you set it up.  Passwords cannot be retrieved.
    Change all passwords on accounts associated with your iPhone.
