[QUOTE="Ross Monster, post: 1639287, member: 337528"] Hey guys! I've been working at a production house for about four months where we have a Mac Mini which serves as our editing machine, which I work on daily. The last editor's name was Tommy and this computer was his before mine, so therefore it's named "Tommy's Machine". Well, last night I was on my iPhone and I was scrolling through some open windows in Safari when I noticed at the bottom of all of the windows, a line of separation and the small icon of a cloud, with the words "Tommy's Machine" next to it. I'm a little confused because I have never plugged in my iPhone, synced, or paired it with this computer physically. Furthermore, I do not use iCloud and I've never logged in with the information which would lead me to be in "Tommy's Machine" account. So I'm wondering how it was able to grab my phone and I'm also wondering if now all of my information can now be accessed using the Mac Mini at work... Mainly, I just want my phone to have it's glorious name back of, "Sagittariut Jefferspin", not "Tommy's Machine". :) Any help would be much appreciated, thanks! [/QUOTE]
