The mac name is already taken by another device

Is there a way to see the names of the devices connected to my wi fi network?
it says that the mac name is already taken by another device, then my mac starts to change host name often

I do not get any message at all when I try to trash it. The folder simply does not move to the trash. I marked this solved before I tried the unlocking solution, but I am confident it will work. It seems counter-intuitive to have a locked by default action, since a burn folder should be editable. I thought that was one of the main ideas of a burn folder.

Is it possible to restore Gamecenter after update and restore?? After update, tried logging into Gamecenter and it says that the user name is already taken. Yeah, I know..... by me!!!

One of my kids ipods needed an update. It wouldn't let me do it via the itouch (like the other 2 itouches did). I had to connect to the PC, sync, update and then restore. Once I did, the apps could be downloaded again via icloud (which wasn't on the itouch before) but progress on games that were through Gamecenter did not transfer. Tried logging into Gamecenter and it states the user name is already taken. Yeah, I know it's already taken, BY MY DAUGHTER!!! Apparently she has a dragon game app that she manages through Gamecenter that she has worked her way to level 22 and now it is all gone. It wants her to restart from level 1. I know this isn't life or death and not like losing work data etc. But to a 9 year old who has spent $40 of her own money on gems, coins etc....... this is the end of the world. LOL. I do want to try to help her, I just don't know how.

Thank you. After posting I started to search for Backflip studios and found this support id. I had meanwhile created a new nickname, very similar to the original one, and requested that they swap the advanced world to the new id. I sent this last Saturday evening. This morning (so effectively on their first workday after my request!) I received a kind response from Rachael that they had swapped the parks. Like your daughter my son couldn't believe his eyes. Thank you for your post, original and reply, I hope others will find it too and that Rachael can keep up such excellent support. It means a lot...

POWL 'Query Name is already open in another session'

Hi there,
Our users are constantly getting the following error message when using POWL's in the Portal.
Query <Name> is already open in another session' (POWL 016)
The error occurs when a user tries to refresh a query and the query is locked in another session (ENQUEUE_EPOWL_QUERY_EDIT Exception foreign_lock).
There are various root causes to why this error happens, system, application, communication etc. The one I am seeking help on occurs when the user abruptly terminates the browser session (forced or unforced) and the orphaned session is unable to close properly leaving the POWL query locked.
We are currently informing the users to
1.) close all windows and reload the worklist.
and in certain circumstances
2.) log off and log on again
The above workaround doesnt always solve the problem. We are reluctant to give users access to SM12.
Has anybody encountered something similar, if so were their specific settings, notes, code etc. which needed to be implemented?
Cheers
John P

Try the following steps
Please implement the note 1836401 and the prerequisites 1873487,1902580 .
Identify the POWL Query name and set the refresh type as: 'refresh on every LIST VISIT'.
Important: Run the report POWL_D01 and remove the result list of your POWL
Application ID, it#s very important because the cache would still contain the old refresh type and will not recognize the new refresh type, please run the report at first for one user ant test the behaviour, if it works run it for all other user
Pass the application parameter REFRESHA with value X to your POWL application. After that retest your issue, it should work. if not implement the note 1975395 and its prerequisites and test again
Best regards,
Robert.

I can´t authorize my second computer or my ebook. i get the message adobe ID already use my another

i can´t neighter authorize my second computer nor my ebook on ADE. i get the messade Adobe ID already use my another computer or ebook.
how can i authorize an other computer or my ebook?

The system sometimes gets confused. Try explicitly deauthorizing the computer (ctrl-shift-D to ADE) and the device (ctrl-shift-E to ADE when the device is plugged in).
Restart ADE, and see if the authorization can work any better.
You have a maximum of 6 computers/devices for an ID. Maybe with old devices you are trying to get more than 6?
If so, you must contact Adobe service (live chat is easiest http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html ) and ask them to deauthorise all devices.
You should then be able to reauthorise those computers/devices you still need.

I know of no solution except for restorng the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod. Have you made a suggstion to Apple to all resetting email autofill?

Cannot transfer rental movie to ipad, itunes thinks it is already transferred to another device

Hi,
Hopefully this is pretty straightforward. I downloaded a movie rental from iTunes store. When I attempted to move to my iPad (via manual sync) I got an error along the lines of the following: 'Cannot transfer movie rental as it is already transferred to another device'. I have rented movies multiple times from the iTunes store and did not encounter this issue. My laptop is authorized (I double checked). Correct me if I am wrong but if the rental appears in the iTunes library then technically it is not transferred.
Thanks in advance!

I have purchased but never rented movies but from what I have read, your assumption is correct. Once you move the rental to an iDevice it should disappear from iTunes.
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4, iPod touch (4th generation), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.

Mail problem: "The account ___ is in use on another device."

Sometimes when I launch Mail it says "The account _ is in use on another device" with the blank being my email address. This is not consistent but it seems to happen (or I notice it more) when I have not launch the app in a little while. The only other "device" that could be putting my account "in use," I suppose, is my iMac when it fetches mail periodically but I can't believe that this is the cause because I never experienced this with my iPhone 3G (3.1.3). Any ideas what is causing this?

I have the exact same problem, only my iphone 3Gs did it prior to the upgrade also. the strange thing is that it does seem to still get messages so they appear, only more slowly than what they appear on the mac book.
if anyone has an answer would be great!!
cheers

Why when I try to re download my music it says this device is already associated with another device and I have so many days to re download my music back? How do I get around this and get my music back?

It is telling you that the device has been associated with another Apple ID. Once an Apple ID has been associated with a device, there is a 90-day waiting period before another Apple ID can be associated with that device. Here is a Support Article that explains the 90-day waiting period:

everytime i go to plug my ipod 5 in with the charger in to the mac desktop computer a message says "USB DEVICE DISABLED" "unplug the device using to much power to re-enable usb devices" and ever since i had got that message my charger had stopped working even plug into a wall outlet
ps.its my only charger and i need to know if i can fix this problem or my mac broke my charger

Hey HoustonSmith, using to much power generally means a short. Do not use this cable, the lighting cables have a history of failure; shorting out. If within one year of purchase date take it to Apple, the cable also has a one year warranty, if short is do to manufacturing flaw and not abuse Apple will replace it free! Otherwise a new cable is around $30. You could also try a reset or restore, but don't think a glitch is your problem. If you do try to restore, just remember to make backup copies of all the info / data on this iPod to your computer first, then attempt to restore. Good luck. Cheers.

HT4436 Our family iPads and iPhones and all linked to the cloud and all the "switches" in settings are turned on...so why for example can't I see on my device any of the photos my wife has taken on her device?

Are they all using the same AppleID?

"Name is already taken" by a burn folder

When I burn a CD, I prefer to rename it to match the contents, such as "Birthday Party". That is a normal contextual menu option for any blank CD. If the burn fails, I can eject the bad disc and insert a fresh one, and it mounts as "Untitled CD". If I try to rename it "Birthday Party", I get the message "The name "Birthday Party" with extension ".fpbf" is already taken." The burn folder with that name cannot be deleted, but I can remove it from the sidebar. That doesn't change anything about the error. How can I properly remove a burn folder so the system forgets its name and allows me to reuse the name? Don't suggest that I restart. I know that will work. I simply want to know how to properly delete a burn folder so its name is forgotten by the system.

I do not get any message at all when I try to trash it. The folder simply does not move to the trash. I marked this solved before I tried the unlocking solution, but I am confident it will work. It seems counter-intuitive to have a locked by default action, since a burn folder should be editable. I thought that was one of the main ideas of a burn folder.
