I just purchased an iBook G4 (great laptop) from a friend and I have completely tuned the machine to my needs. There is one thing that I have not been able to do however and I'm hoping you can help me.
I want to change the machine name from 'abc' to 'dan' but when I try to do this (I think I found it under Sharing or Network), the iBook tells me that I can not do this because it is used by the MAC O/S (or some very similar error message).
Is there a way to change the machine name on my iBook G4 so that it reads my name as opposed to my friends name?
Thanks very much. I'm new to this site so not sure how/where I'll get the response. The e-mail address that I attached to this account is azincognito@gmail.com.
