Recently added 2 step verification to my apple account and so my password was changed. Since then I noticed my messaging items were not being synced across devices and iMac. Googled for help and solved the problem. One of the things I did was to removed all emails associated with FaceTime and then add only my apple account email. But now I am being asked to add this email for messaging and fictive to "iMac12,2" My iMac is called DiMac. Where does this iMac12,2 come from and how to I change it before I click OK on both iPhone and iPad

iMac12,2 is likely to be the model type of your iMac and apparently you've not put the name into the Sharing system preference panel.
