Connect it to the computer and open iTunes. Once iTunes connects you will see it listed in the sidebar. Click inside the existing name to rename it.
Hello....In tried all that is proposed in this forum....I can still see my husband's name on settings/owner info
I really want to change it!
i can see the change on itunes when i do it, i synch before and after, then when i disconnect and re-connect again, the new info is gone, its going back to the previous name...
Please get the iPad iOS 4 user guide.
maraki23,
I had the same issue but it corrected itself when I powered the ipad off and back on.
In other words, reboot: just like Windows. 😉
