On AIM’s FAQ page, I read this:
Q: Can I transfer my AIM screen name to an AOL account or vice versa?
A: Yes! When you register for your AOL account, make sure to select the “You are an AOL Instant Messenger user and you want to create an AOL account” option to convert your AIM screen name to an AOL account. Right now there’s no way to use an AIM screen name as an additional or secondary screen name on your AOL account. If you want to use your AOL account screen name on AIM, go right ahead! Just type in your screen name and password when prompted.
has anyone figured out how to do this?!?! I cannot– I see no option for You are an AOL Instant Messenger user and you want to create an AOL account” ANYWHERE on AOL’s signup for an AOL account. Can anyone tell me how to do this specifically? I want to change my AIM s/ms to AOL ones.
Are you in the process of installing the AOL software? It used to ask you for that info when you setup the account and entered in credit card info.
Be forewarned: once you’ve moved your AIM screen names to AOL-status, you can’t retain them as AIM screen names once you cancel your AOL account. They’ll only be available as long as you’re paying for the AOL service…until they change their service to free status, but I don’t know a definite date for that.
