To all: Please write to [email protected], explaining this situation and asking that a different method of finding an Apex be used. At the very least, ask that this requirement, of having the apex's default name set when the initial pairing is done, be mentioned in the documentation and instructions. Please also ask hw to make the same changes to their online instructions.
