Q: How do I change the registration of my ipod? I bought a new ipod and want to register it under a different name.

I just bought a new ipod and when I plugged it in to register it, the name of my son's ipod appeared. How do I change the registration so that I can make it my own?

    It sounds like yu either restored it from a backup of your son's iPod or you set it up via iTunes with iTunes signed into his account.

    I would go to Settings>General>Reset>Ease all content and settings and then set it up with your account. If you do it via iTunes make sure that iTunes is signed into your account.
