Ever find it annoying that you can't rename your iDisk mounted on your desktop? Well here's a solution. In Finder click Go -> iDisk to mount the iDisk. Then open Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal. In the Terminal, type:
[robg adds: Amazingly enough, this seemed to work just fine. I haven't tested it extensively, but the disk did re-mount with the new name, and a quick copy to/from the disk worked fine. I have no idea if this will survive a logout or a restart, but I wouldn't think it would (anyone care to find out?).]
cd /VolumesThen type:
mv idisk_user_name new_idisk_nameYour iDisk will now disappear from the desktop. Now go to the Finder and click Go -> iDisk to re-mount your iDisk. Voila! You have just renamed your iDisk!
