How to change saved passwords for AOL screen name


AOL instant messenger, commonly known as AIM, is an online chat client that enables you to communicate with people quickly and quickly using a broadband internet connection. Like other chat applications, AIM requires that you enter the username and password to log on and use the service. To make logging easy, you can save your password in the chat client. However, if you change your AOL account password for any reason, then you have to change the stored password in the AIM client program and other AOL programs you use.

Change AOL / AIM Password

1. Direct your web browser to AOL password page (links in resources).

2. Sign in to your AOL Account with your current username and password. If prompted, answer your security question. Change password pop-up window opens.

3. Choose your current username in the "Screen Name" drop-down menu. Enter your new password in the "New Password" and "Confirm Password" field.

4. Click the "Save" button and then log out of your AOL account.

5. To confirm that this works, please sign in to your AOL account again using your new password.


Change AOL Mail "From" display name or AOL account first / last name

Whether you want to change from maiden name to married name, display another version of your first and last name when you send emails your friends, or want to show a nickname instead, this tutorial shows you how to update the "From" name that appears when you send messages with AOL Mail from a web browser (you'll need to update your From name in any email program you use as well!) We'll also explain how to change your official name for your main AOL account.



Whenever you send email messages using the web browser version of AOL Mail, the name that appears to your recipients is the one you picked when you first signed up for the service: to change it, login to your AOL account and click on the Options dropdown in the top right corner; select "Mail Settings", and choose the "Compose" options on the left of the next page. Scroll down to the bottom and look for the Display Name section (second from last).

Update your name, type a brand new first / last name in the text field, or enter your nickname. The name will appear in the exact same order as you type it. Then, click on the "Save Settings" button at the bottom. Your new From name will appear from the next email you send onward!
