With Apple Remote Desktop How can I change all the computer names

After a re-imaging session?. I would like to not have to visit each station and manually change the computer name.
Is this at all possible using ARD?

Hi
I don't use DeployStudio and know nothing about it. In terms of simply changing the names? Yes. Clearly not in the same way. You could use what's built-in on OSX Server if you have it? System Image Utility allows creation of nbis with an associated workflow that can define workstation names from a pre-prepared list of MAC Addresses and desired names as a Post-Install Action.
This is fairly well-documented in the Server Forum and elsewhere.
HTH?

  • I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

    I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

    Several protocols may be used.
    Here I describe two of them.
    (1) the one which I use : install and use the "Convert to Lowercase" service available in the free WordService
    (2) copy your text, paste in TextEdit and enter the Edit menu.
    I guess that you will recognize the items in your English menu.
    I apologize but I don't know the English items.

    How can I change all the fonts at once on labels I downloaded from Avery?

    select all (Edit > Select All), then open the font panel by selecting the menu item "Format > Font Show Fonts".  Now select the font you want.
    I could only find Templates from Avery for Pages.  I think my suggestion in still good but want you to know you posted this question in the forum for Numbers.

    hi,
    hope the below code helps u. Just take the headee which contains the field name and split it like below and compare it with the field name u want here 'last name'.
    here,
    'First name' will be in wt_filedata1 and remaining field names in wt_filedata2, so 'do' continues.
    c_tab must be the separator, either , or + or tab etc..
    CODE:
    read table person into wl_header index 1.
    do.
        split wl_header at c_tab into: wt_filedata1 wt_filedata2.
        if wt_filedata1 <> 'lastname'.
          cnt1 = cnt1 + 1.
          wl_header = wt_filedata2.
        else.
          exit.
        endif.
      enddo.
    Please reward if it is useful.
    regards,
    sri

  • I recently bought my daughter an iPod 5th generation and quickly set it up with all my info ... E-mail , Apple ID etc. how can I change all of it to her name and new info without losing all her apps , movies and music ???

    I quickly set up my daughters iPod with all my info ( e-mail , Apple ID and password ) how cam I change it all to new info under her name so she can have for her own ??

    You will need to Erase the Device and Set up as New using her Apple ID.
    Then... Sync her content...

  • How can I change all the settings of a networked printer?

    I have a Canon iP5000 attached to a mini in another room, and want to print over ethernet from my iMac. All is ok for basic printing, but for some reason I can't get to all the print settings on the networked machine that are available from the machine with the printer attached.
    The implication of this is that I can't print photos from my iMac, as the "high quality" option isn't an option I can select. Currently, I have to create a pdf, send it over, and then print from the mini as I can see all the options from there.
    Is it a driver issue (Canon don't list a 10.6 driver on their website) or a Mac OS issue?

    In order for you to see all the additional Canon printer features (known as PDE's) you must have the same driver installed on the Mac sharing the printer and the Mac connecting to the printer share.
    If both the Mini and the iMac are running OS X 10.6, then you can download the Canon Printer Update v2.3 from Apple and install on both Mac's. If either Mac is already using v10.30.3.0 of the iP5000 driver, which was part of the v2.3 Canon Printer Driver Update for Snow Leopard, then you just have to ensure the other Mac is using the same driver.
    If one of the Mac's is using a version of Mac OS X other than 10.6, then please reply.

  • How can i change all the purple links in safari back to blue

    I am having trouble figuring out how to change the links ive visited in safari back to blue. I have turned on PRIVATE so now my links dont turn purple onces ive visited the webpage but i can't figure out how to remove/change the already visited sites from purple back to blue! help me pleaseeee xx

    OK.
    Go to SAFARI tab from the safari menu and "reset Safari"
    You can keep your passwords, just uncheck that option.
    once done that, quit Safari, here is the trick. CLosing the Safari Window doesn't quit the app, to quit it you can either go to "safari" tab on the safari menu and Quit safari or  press control key on the keyboard and click on the safari app and quit. that will erase those purple highlighted links

  • How can I change all the recipients in a PRE-PREPARED list from 'to' to 'bcc'?

    I know if I type in the first recipient and hit 'bcc', the next one automatically changes if I'm composing a multiple-recipient email from scratch. However, I already have a pre-prepared sub-list in my Contacts folder. If I click on 'Write', all the names are there in the blank email and doing the above doesn't help. Any ideas, please?

    Such a simple solution, but I never knew about the Contacts sidebar before! This has saved me so much time - thanks very much.

  • How can I change/edit the title/name of my iTunes podcast?

    I want to "add" more description to the "title" of my iTunes podcast.
    Anyone know how to do this?
    -Mike

    This depends on what method you are using to create your podcast. Basically, you just go to wherever you entered the title in the first place and change it, then republish the feed.
    However there is an importante consideration - some podcast creation methods produce a feed with a title taken from the podcast title. If changing the title changes the feed filename, this will change the URL and the Store will lose contact with the feed and stop updating: so this is something you need to be aware of. If your feed is called something like rss.xml there isn't a problem.\\You canof courses update the 'itunes:summary' tag (in the top section of the feed) which populates the 'Description' in the Store page.
    It will take the Store a couple of days or so to show changes.

  • My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones.  she now has an ipad with a her own apple id.  How can we change the apple id on her phoneand not loose any contacts or songs?

    My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones (2 phones both are 5s) .  She now has an ipad with a her own apple id.  How can we change the apple id on her phone so that is the same as the ipad and not loose any contacts or songs?

    Did you take a look at the new feature Apple - iOS 8 - Family Sharing ?
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
    Up to now, songs bought from iTunes could only be played by the Apple ID that has been used to buy them.
    If you set up Family Sharing, your daughter can also play your songs and use the same contact info as before.
    If you don't want to do that, sync the contact info to the address book on your computer, and sync the info back, using iTunes:
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    If the iPad already has her Apple ID and contact info on it, restore the phone from the latest iPad backup.

  • I have two iPhones and an iPad under same Apple ID. How can I change one of the iPhones to a separate id?

    I have 2 iPhones &amp; an iPad under 1 Apple ID. How can I change 1 of the iPhones to a separate account?

    Sign out of the Apple ID on the device in question, making sure to disable the Find My iDevice feature.
    Sign in with the new Apple ID.
    If the intent is to sell the device, simply restore as new after disabling the Find My iDevice and signing out.

  • I recently updated my e-mail address with apple, but now it does not show all the "purchased" music that I purchased under my old e-mail address.  How can I re-gain access to those hundreds of purchased songs?

    I recently updated my e-mail address with apple, but now it does not show all the "purchased" music that I purchased under my old e-mail address.  How can I re-gain access to those hundreds of purchased songs?

    You are trying to find a loophole to circumvent a basic rule that prohibits the transfer of purchased content from one Apple ID to another.
    Content tied to an Apple ID are bound to that Apple ID forever. You can not merge or trade accounts. Well, not (officially) anyway...
