Renaming a Mac:


Use an Administrator Account:

Login as an administrator to do so. One successfully renamed, start your Mac. Here is the link to use: Change your Computer’s Name or Local Hostname on Mac - Apple Support


Still having Troubles?

If you cannot successfully rename this, what issues have you come across (i.e. messages), and how have you troubleshot this thus far?
