Okay for about 3 days i been trying to log into aim, but i get this wierd error.
1. i open up aim (mac os x)
2. i sign up and retrieve buddy list
3. i try to send a message to any of my buddies but they seem to not get any of my messages.
4. i have tried using Aim 4.6, 4.7, Fire, or Adium all carry the same problem so i think its me trying to connect to Aol Host Computer.
5. I have tried re-installing, and changing password.
6. Turning off main firewall i have.
7. The error i get is under “My Account Settings” it states “There has been a problem retrieving settings from the Host Computer please try again in a few minutes.”
8. It has been 3 to 4 days now im not sure what to do.
10. thanks for the help anything is appreciated.
11. I dont think it can be a mac thing because its a host connection thing.
-Fes.
If you have a PC nearby, I would try that on the same internet connection and see what happens.
