Change Licence Name / Wi-Fi Sync Server Name

Post by MattTown »

I'm a long term MM user and have a lifetime gold licence. I'm getting MM for my partner but wanted to buy it myself. Because I bought it that new licence has my name instead of hers. We're getting into wifi synching on the same wifi network and I want to make sure that the android phone clients don't get confused between her library and mine. I figured that one way to separate them is to have her licence have her name instead of mine. So, how do I change her licence to her name so that her library doesn't get confused with mine, and I end up with her music on my phone?
MM 2024.3003 (WEF 9 Mar 2024, Portable Mode), Gold lifetime license, user since 2009.
Currently 25K files. Library and music files are on a separate partition (E:\) on external USB drive.
Windows Surface Book (Original), i5, 8GB RAM, 250GB SSD.
Win10 Home 64 bit, update: 22H2 19045.3570
MMA 2.0.0.1103, Android 13 on Nokia XR20, music files on SD card.

License is not used to identify MM5 servers by MMA clients. You need to change the name under Tools > Options > Media Sharing in the media server Options. Go to the Server tab and you can change the MM5 name as it appears in MMA: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/WebHel ... .28DLNA.29
