    For some reason whenever I plug in my iPhone to my Mac, Parallels detects the phone "Apple iPhone #3" for some reason. I am personally annoyed by this specific label title and I would like to have the ability to modify it to just read "Apple iPhone". Anyways I can do this?
     
  2. PD counts similar USB devices plugged into the system taking into account the serial number of the device. For your particular case this means that 3 iPhones with different serials were plugged from time to time.

    You can reset the database inside /Library/Preferences/Parallels/dispatcher.desktop.xml using you preferred editor.

    I'm still running Parallels 7, but can you go to Preferences and modify the list under the USB tab? You can't rename things, but you could delete all the iPhones and start over.
