Ok, long story short.......moved an application because I was trying to do something and I got weird codes that look like this: "keynote 18-21-33"

I wish I never attempted to play around with the location of my application.

How do I fix the title of the app so that it no longer has these strange codes? I want it to say the title of just the app without the codes. IE: "Keynote".

Thanks.

Move the icon to the desktop (or wherever it's located), select it, press enter and input the desired title.

Thank you! Your renaming solution worked like a charm!

One question though......since I fooled around with the names and locations of my iWork apps in the first place......how can I be sure that Software update will still be able to find my iWork apps?

Thanks!
