Changing the name of my magic mouse in bluetooth #19302 11/21/11 09:50 PM

OP slolerner Joined: Aug 2009 New York City	I connected my Magic Mouse to someone else's computer and now it's labeled as her name and I'm sick of it. How can I change the name back or set it to factory defaults so it picks up my computer's name? Thanks.
