Hi All,

Is there any API in cocoa which can be used to fetch computer name
which is
getting displayed in Finder?

I'm not sure if there's a better way, but you can use the Gestalt function with the gestaltUserVisibleMachineName selector.

I tried: SInt32 response = 0xdeadbeef; OSErr resul1 = Gestalt( gestaltUserVisibleMachineName, &response ); if ( resul1 != noErr ) .... // error handling NSLog(@"%s response = %ld = %#lx", __FUNCTION__, response, response); and got no error and: response = 1224224 = 0x12ae20

Where is my mistake?

Kind regards,

Gerriet.
