So do you name your electronics? If yes, have you thought of a name for your iPhone? =D

I only started naming things when I got my macbook 1 and a half years ago. I named him Gerard because:
a) It's fun to say in a French accent. (I was majoring in French at that point.)
b) Gerard Butler's yummy.
c) Gerard is a relatively uncommon name, for me at least.
I then proceded to name my 2nd gen iPod Touch Gerry because I pretty much used it as a computer, or a mini Gerard. xD
So I have decided to name my iPhone Gerry 2.0. Because I'm getting the iPhone mainly as a replacement for my 8gb iPod cause it ran out of space. (I figured if I was about to spend $300 on an iPod Touch, why not just condense iPod and phone? Yay!)
So what are you planning on naming your iPhone(s)?

Laptop is Lilah, short for Delilah, from the song Hey There Delilah. B/c my husband bought the MacBook for me before his first deployment. And it felt appropriate.
Desktop is Frank. Frank the Tank. Because it's so big. And luxurious. 
Thinking Linus for my iPhone... link from the Peanuts comics.. Linus doesn't leave his blanket anywhere... I won't leave my iPhone anywhere. WITH ME AT ALL TIMES.

  • How do you change the Apple ID for my iPhone 4?

    How do you change the Apple ID for my iPhone 4. I am able to access my iTunes account using my new ID and password on my computer; however, my iphone has a different Apple ID and I do not have cannot access iTunes on this phone. 

    Also, if you have iCloud, you will probably also want to change the iCloud account on the phone to be yours:
    Settings>iCloud - if Account is not yours, go to the bottom and Delete Account. Then sign back on with your iCloud account info.
    Cheers,

  • If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    Actually, everyone missed one point, when a device is priced, the cost of icloud storage space for that device is also included in it that is why they are able to give you 5gb each for each user ID, in nutshell there is nothing free coming with apple device purchase, it is paid for.  What they are trying by giving only 5gb per user ID irrespective of the number of devices used is pure broadlight looting, they take money from you when you buy each device and give you nothing, This is a case of goods and services bought but not fully deliverd ie apple can be suied for discreminatory treatment towards it's users. I wonder why no one tried this yet in America where everyone sue everyone for petty things..... there is no one to take up this issue? . if tim got any love for the guys who shell out money for the devices his company makes, he should be implimenting this as priority before someone wake up from sleep and sue him.

    I don't believe Apple stores in Europe replace iPhone screens. I believe they replace the whole phone.

    Apple can you make a iOS update for older iphones's

    Apple is not here.
    We are all iphone users just like you.
    Like all software on all devices/computer/tvs/dvds/cars/etc, the newest updates will not be compatible with older devices.
    iphone 3g and earlier models have reached the end of the line.

  • I am having problems with my ear pieces being pick up by bluetooth.  Do you have to BUY a special earpiece for the iphone 5?

    I have two ear pieces, one practically new, I used with the iphone 4 I had.  The iphone 5 is not discovering the earpieces, and I have no hands free capability.  Do I have to buy a special earpiece for the 5 or is there a patch or something coming out?
    SGBH

    You do not need a special headset for your iPhone. Did you pair the headset with the new iPhone? You may have to read the instructions for the headset to see if you have to put it in "discovery" mode before it will show up on the iPhone's Bluetooth settings page.

  • 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.

  • What are you supposed to do for users manual for the iPhone 5?

    What or how do you get the user's manual for the iPhone 5?

    It is accessible on your iPhone by going in to Safari and clicking on the open book icon at the bottom of the screen. You will see the option for the iPhone User Guide. You can also access it on your computer via the www.apple.com/support website and either download it to your computer for offline use or open it and read it that way.

  • Hi, I have just purchased a ipad mini for my wife and have registered it in my name so that i can add some apps that i think she would appreciate. However if i want to contact her using face time it is registered in my name, how do you get around that?

    Hi I have just purchased an i pad for my wife and have registered it in my name to add some apps prior to giving the i pad to her. However, for using face time and games where you can link via wifi it will look as though there are two of the same, if I am trying to link her ipad to mine. How do you get around this?

  • How do you change your apple id on your iphone 5

    how do you change your apple id on your iphone 5. I also increased storage and cannot update to latest software upgrade! ANNOYING!!!!
    Yes, I logged in and out of the Ap Store and it is correct on that end. I have signed in on my PC too and connected cell. I am out of tactics to resolve! Please help!

    If your phone is signed into an old ID and you are trying to change it to an updated version of the old ID, do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  When finished goThen go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).
