Solve : how do i restore my AOL favorite places??

Answer»

I recently had a problem with my AOL and so i uninstalled it and installed it again. I checked I was a CURRENT member and entered my signin info. It opened ok but i noticed my favorites had disappeared. I have reinstalled AOL before and not lost my favorites so I don't know what happened this time. Is there some way to restore them. I have a lot of important things there and it will be a "monster" to try to REDO them myself. Man I'll never remember them all. Can anyone help me? I know a long time ago (years) this happened and AOL told me how to restore them but they now CHARGE to help you with this stuff. I hope SOMEONE out there has a suggestion...I'm desperate.

That's a very old reference, so I'd be doubtful of its relevance now, although I'm really not familiar with AOL nowadays. I do know that the AOL of today is much different from the AOL of a decade ago. I would not be using them for email now. AOL has shifted it's focus to being CONTENT provider, not an ISP.

If I had an AOL email account, I think I'd be switching to some other email service as soon as possible. But, I'm not really clear on what the topic is here. What is "AOL favorites"?Neither am i however i was endeavoring to provide information that had some relevance to the topic. My anticipation was based on the assumption that the O/P was still doing this until recently when the "favorites" was lost by virtue of the reinstall process. While i do concede the O/P may have been using a version of AOL that DID permit this function and that perhaps it is still retained in whatever version was recently installed. Another possibility is that AOL may charge for tech help via phone but they may also provide free tech support if the request is done via the slower e-mail process. Some do some don't. I imagine we shall have to await the return of the O/P to see what if any assistance my link was able to provide. truenorth
