If not, is it possible to change the holder of the reservation ( let's say to wifes name ? that the night/stay credit @ least there will be credited ?
2.) With SPG we had been able ( as platinum members !!! ) to transfer 1 point to a FFP ( interesting for all those which wanted to keep accounts open from expirering ) . Now i see minimum is 3000 points are to transfer. is this correct or i oversee something ?
Thank's

As I said before the merger, regardless of when a booking was made, once the programs were combined, you are only going to get stay and night credit for one room if the stay happens after the merger. Any charges related to up to two additional rooms will be accounted for in that posting.
Also, IIRC, SPG quit allowing 1 Starpoint to be transferred to an airline long before the merger. The least a member could transfer would be 1,000 Starpoints regardless of membership level. Nevertheless, even if my memory is failing on that point, it is the new combined program rules which prevail. So, if there is a 3,000 point minimum, then you did not miss anything.
