I am trying to dynamically change the application menu title (the one with the application's name in the menu bar in the Finder) from what I entered in IB to what I want.

Why would the application menu display your app's name when you are in the Finder?

How do I do that?

You don't. There is no provision for doing it because it should not be done. Why on earth would anyone ever want to do so?

I have tried using both the IBOutlet I created for the menu and [ [ [ NSApplication sharedApplication ] mainMenu ] setTitle: @"MyName" ].

None of those work. Furthermore it is not picking up the changes in the menu name that I make to the menu in IB. What am I doing wrong?

Attempting it in the first place. :-)
