Error in changing the name of an event

When I go to change the name of an event in imovie it gives me this message "Move Failed - This file could not be moved:
/Users/asrevelli/Movies/iMovie Events.localized/July- - Day 18
(-5000)
Anybody know what the deal with this is? I can change the name of projects without a problem but I can't change the name of events. When I try and change it in the finder it tells me that I don't have sufficient access to do that. Please Help!!!

No, it's not giving me that type of warning. I have had that before. This is an access/privilege type of thing. It seems like it came after I updated to 10.5.7 Leopard. I can't say for sure though.

I am unable to change the computer name.

I am unable to change the computer name of my MBP 9.1.
When I edit the computer's name in settings/sharing the name reverts to
the old name of Bill's MBP (2). I am attempting to delete the (2) portion of the name.
This along with a 27" iMac and a MBP 7.1 are networked wirelessly
through a older AP extreme. What am I doing wrong?

I finaly took the MBP to the Apple Store.
While waiting for the genius, I kept trying to
change the MBP's name in sharing. After trying
several things, control-enter worked. I have no idea why.
The reason I'm posting this is that the genius
reminded me that I could not be certain the change
took until I restarted the MBP. I hadn't seen this
important step before and some may not be aware of this.
I suppose this applies to any change made on your Mac.

How can we change the name of dynamic events selector label in Event Structure

When retriving references to Control that are contained in a cluster. The default name that
appear in the Event Structure is: : Mouse down.
I have found a workaround to correct the problem. But I would apreciate a more convinient way to do this.
This is the workaround I found to change the names in the Event Structure
I cast the References using a Reference constant and I change the label of
that constant.
See the VI for more detail. It is well commented.
Is there any way to change the name of a dynamic event without doing the
cast trick?

I changed the name of my imac to reflect it's new location, but inadvertently, it unchecked the box to allow the administrative user account to administer the machine. I am trying to reinstall with a time machine backup and am unable

I need a little help. I changed the name of my imac to reflect it's new location, but inadvertently, when I saved the change, the system unchecked the "allow this account to administer the computer" so now I can't make any changes.... I tried to reinstall the OS, but it wants me to go online while installing and use my apple id, but this is not my iMAC, so I don't want to use my account. Also, I am working in a building that will not allow me network access until I authenticate, which can't be done unless I open the browser first. So I'm stuck at this point. I can't even restore a time machine backup that I have because it gives the error message that the system encountered an error. Any suggestions?

Ask the admin/owner to sign in.

I changed the name of the hard drive and now cant find event

I changed the name of my drirve where I store my iMovie 09 (8.0.6) files. Now when I open iMovie the envets are missing.

Not missing, just that iMovie can't locate them.
Change the name back again.

Unable to change "Your name" in BIS

I have my Gmail account set up in BIS and everything is working perfectly, however, I am unable to change the "Your name:" field to anything other than what's already there. I've tried deleting the account and re-adding it in there from the web site as well as from my BB to no avail. When I change the field, I don't get an error and I receive a message saying "Email account successfully updated." but it doesn't stay. For some reason, just my last name is in there (i.e. Smith) but I would like to change the "Your name:" field to my full name: John Smith.
Is there something I'm doing wrong? TIA!

What did your mobile operator have to say about it? This seems to be a problem specific to them. They can disable most of the fields your BIS account.

WRT610N - Unable to change "Server Name" - No Text box.

I have my WRT610N running V2 firmware. In all of the documentation I see, on the Admin area within the Storage Tab, there is a text box next to the Server Name and you are able to update that field to change the Server Name. However, I have no textbox here, and thus am unable to change the Server Name. I've attempted factory defaults, firmware upgrades, and multiple reboots to attempt to solve the issue. Any help out there?
Thanks in advance

Whats the Firmware version is installed on your Router and whats the Version number of your Router? If it's an Version 2 Router, then it doesn't have an option to change the Server Name. As far as i know the Version 1 Router has an option to change the Server Name.
If its an Version 1 Router and if you have updated the firmware, with the latest firmware you don't have an option to change the Server Name, By Default its WRT610N.

When I installed Mountain Lion it asked the name of my computer. I was in such a hurry that I now have a typo. How can I go back and change the name of the computer?

How do I change the name of my computer?

One area that this appears is on Facebook where it lists the number of Recognized Devices. There are six devices which include iPad and iPhone. These items are grayed and you are unable to change. Also on my iphone it lists the computer name. This name is different from name of my computer. It's what I signed in as when I installed the Mountain Lion upgrade. I know I'm not doing a good job of explaining this. I have searched everywhere on my computer that I can think of and cannot locate where this is used. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I found the solution to a Mavericks bug on the Mail program. How can I share it? Several of my mail boxes stopped functioning properly when I updated to Mavericks. After long hours, I discovered that if I change the name of the mailbox, the content works.

I found the solution to a Mavericks bug on the Mail program. How can I share it? Several of my mail boxes stopped functioning properly when I updated to Mavericks. The title of the mails stored in the mailbox appear, but the content was unavailable.
After 4 long hours at the phone with the Apple staff unable to help me, I discovered that if I change the name of the mailbox, the contents of the mails stored there become available.
Please, make this solution available to other people!

You have found the the way to share it. Include your problem and its solution in a forum post in the Mavericks forums. Then mark you own post with a green solved star.
Note. You won't get any points for that; points are only awarded where you mark someone else's post as either helpful or solved.

Is it possible to change the name of a photo in one album without changing the name in other albums?

I use the photos in events to create more than one album and I want to use a unique name in each album. When I change the name in one album, all instances of the photo also change.

Correct. Albums just reference the photos in an Event - it's why a pic can be in 50 albums and use no extra disk space. So, change one and you change all. The alternative is to duplicate the pic in the Event.

System Center Virtual Machine Manager SC VMM 2012 SP1 Installation fails: Unable to assign the name NO_PARAM to this host because this name is already in use.

I'm trying to install VMM 2012 SP1 on a Windows Server 2012 machine and it fails with this error,
the scenario is as follows,
Old database (from 2012 RTM) exists on remote SQL 2012 SP1 server
Server was 2008 R2 SP1 so I decided to make a fresh installation of 2012 with the same name
installed ADK
specific error: 01:42:13:VMMPostinstallProcessor threw an exception: Threw Exception.Type: Microsoft.VirtualManager.Setup.Exceptions.BackEndErrorException, Exception.Message: Unable to assign the name NO_PARAM to this host because this name is already in
use.
please help

I had a similar problem today when upgrading from SCVMM 2012 RTM to SCVMM 2012 SP1 RTM. To re-create the issue you describe originally you can actually just uninstall SCVMM 2012 SP1 RTM with "retain data" option and re-install the software on the same
computer (with the same name of course), attaching it to the retained DB. If you change the SCVMM server name I believe it will make some things go wrong after your install, like missing VM template passwords for example as the data gets encrypted in
the DB. Maybe it didn't but I didn't risk it. I definitely know if you change service accounts on a scenario like this you will be without the encrypted DB data which isn't much fun. To avoid changing the computer name, if you look in the setup log
files in %systemdrive%\ProgramData\VMMLogs\, specifically the SetupWizard.log file. You will see details on it failing because the same computer name is in the DB table "dbo.tbl_ADHC_AgentServer" and until it is removed from that table I wasn't able to get
the install to complete at all. The error in my logs looked something like this "InnerException.Type: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException, InnerException.Message: Violation of UNIQUE KEY constraint 'unique_ADHC_AgentServer_ComputerName'. Cannot insert duplicate
key in object 'dbo.tbl_ADHC_AgentServer'. The duplicate key value is (computername.is.writtenhere). The statement has been terminated." In the row data in the DB it also seems to suggest that the computer name had "Virtual Machine Manager Library Files" on
it which is strange since I always remove the local SCVMM server as a library server after I install it and use an off box library server.

How do I change the name property of a file in a document library?

I am trying to come up with an Event Receiver that will change the name property of an file when it is uploaded. For instance when a file is uploaded into a document Library, currently the Title is being generated (which is fine)...I want to be able to
change the "Name" property from whatever it is, to match exactly what is in the "Title" property. Are there any sample codes/blogs out there that I can take a look at? Has anyone had any experience doing this? It seems like something
that should be straight forward, to change the "Name" property to match what is in the "Tilte" property.

Hi,
You can try the code below which use the SPFile.MoveTo() function to change the name of the file.
EventFiringEnabled = false;
SPFile f = properties.ListItem.File;
string spfileExt = new FileInfo(f.Name).Extension;
f.MoveTo(properties.ListItem.ParentList.RootFolder.Url +
"/" + properties.ListItem["Title"]+ "_new" + spfileExt);
f.Update();
EventFiringEnabled = true;

Change the name of window in SAP B1 8.8

Dear All,
I want to change the name of the A/R Down Payment request window to some other name. I have tried to do the same from frontend from document numbering but the problem is since there are no separate series for Down Payment request & invoice when I change the name there only the down payment invoice name changes while down payment request remains the same. Please guide if there is any table in SAP where all the window names might be saved and where I can go and edit the name without any repercussions.

Hi,
Gordon is right you will get more replies if it's flagged as a question as people can earn points.
But I'm feeling generous :P
I don't know a way to do it like you mentioned, but you can just use the UI. There's loads of ways to do it but you could catch the form load event on before action = true, and do
If (oForm.Title == "A/R Down Payment request")
oForm.Title = "My new title";
If you haven't worked with UI there's loads of examples and info to cover the bits I glossed over.
Good luck

Trying to change the name of 1 file

I have searched the topic and have not found a solution that works for me,
I am trying to write an AppleScript that will change the name of a single file from path:old.txt to path:new.txt
I have tried
tell application "Finder"
set name of file "work.txt" to PartA & PartG & ticker & ".txt"
end tell
among others and always either receive an error message, access denied or unable to set old file name to new file name

You're missing the point.
set name of file "work.txt" to PartA & PartG & ticker & ".txt"
When you set the name of the file, the Finder needs two things - the original file that you're trying to rename, and the new name you want it to take.
In your revised script you're specifying the existing name (not path) of the file you want to change, and specifying its path along with the new name. That's the wrong way around.
Think of this command in the following manner:
set name of (original file specification) to (new file name)
Now, in the case of the 'original file specification' you need to provide enough information for the Finder to identify the file. You're just saying 'work.txt', but that is not enough (and that's why it's complaining). There could be a hundred 'work.txt' files spread around in different directories on your disk. How is the Finder supposed to know which one you want to change?
A better format would be:
tell application "Finder"
set name of (file "work.txt" of path to desktop) to "ABC.txt"
end tell
In this way the Finder can absolutely identify which file you want to change (the file 'work.txt' that's on your desktop) and the new name you want it to take.
Now, if the file is not on your desktop you can amend the script to include the relevant path, e.g.:
tell application "Finder"
set name of (file "work.txt" of folder "blah" of disk "disk name") to "ABC.txt"
end tell
This tells the Finder to look in the folder 'blah' on the specified disk.
You can also do this by including the path to the file in the form:
tell application "Finder"
set name of (file "disk name:blah:work.txt) to "ABC.txt"
end tell
where you use : to delimit each folder in the path.
Hope that helps.
