Create a device name
Use the device name to identify your HP iPAQ in the following situations:
●
When synchronizing with a computer

When connecting to a network
●
To identify your device during Bluetooth pairing (discoverable)
NOTE: If you synchronize multiple devices with the same computer, create a unique name for each
device.
To change the device name:
1. Tap Start > Settings > System > About > Device ID.
2. Enter a name for the device. The device name must begin with a letter, consist of letters from A to
Z, numbers from 0 to 9, and the special character underscore (_). The device name cannot contain
spaces.
3. Tap ok.
Specify owner information
Record your personal information, such as your name and address, on the HP iPAQ so that it can be
returned to you if it is lost or misplaced.
To specify owner information:
1. Tap Start > Settings > Personal > Owner Information.
2. On the Identification tab, enter your personal information.
3. On the Notes tab, enter your comments or text that you want to display on the screen when the
device starts or it comes out of the standby state.
4. On the Options tab, select the check box for the information that you want to display on the screen
when the device starts or it comes out of the standby state.
5. Tap ok.
TIP: You can edit the owner information directly from the Today screen. To enable the editing function,
you need to select the Owner Information check box when you customize the Today screen. For more
