Yosemite [erroneously] displays multiple Shared Instances under Finder
Since upgrading to Yosemite I have noticed that my iMac appears several times in the Shared area of Finder
e.g
Devices
iMac (13)
Shared
iMac
iMac (2)
iMac (4)
iMac (5)
iMac (6)
iMac (7)
iMac (8)
etc..
I had noticed something similar under Mavericks; the System Log suggested that there was another system [duplicate] on the network using the same Name/IP Address. In that case the Device Name was changed to iMac (2).
I have tried to edit the Device Name under Sharing in System Preferences - but the system changes it back to some other "random" number
Interestingly it says:
Computer Name: iMac (13)
Computers on your local network can access your computer at: iMac-12.local
Any ideas what is happening ? [I have noticed a few other folks (on other forums have encountered the same problem - although no solution as yet!]
Many Thanks
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
