I Know this seems absurd to ask but I can't seem to get around renaming a package in Netbeans that Have sub-packages. ideally when I right-click and refactor > Rename it renames only the node on the Top. If I try to refactor the Next Node in Line, I get the Error that :
Package already Exists
Does anyone knows how i should go about renaming my main package containing other packages and sub-packages in Netbeans? I am using netbeans 7.2.1.

In the Project Explorer, right click the package name and choose Refactor->Rename.
Right-click the package you want to move, and select " Refactor/Rename..." -- NOT " Move "! Modify the name of the package to reflect its desired new position in the package hierarchy, e.g.
To rename a variable, method or class name, consider the following steps: Click right on the variable/method/class name and select "Rename" from the Refactor menu.
Using Netbeans 7.3 and assuming your project has the following structure:
my.package.test.subpackage1
my.package.test.subpackage2
my.package.test.subpackage3
You want to rename test into tests.
Go to the NetBeans Files window (Ctrl + 2 or using the Window -> Files menu). Left-click on the folder corresponding to the package you want to rename (i.e. test).
Type F2 and rename it.
All the sub-packages should have been moved to the new directory and all the related package and import statements should have been updated.
