I am wanting to know how to save my favorite places just incase I
have a computer crash... It has happened in the past and I lost all my
favorite places...I don't have that good a memory to remember all I
have saved...Thanks
 
cwinkel546,

Since you are showing an AOL address, I assume you're using AOL. If you're
using AOL 9.0, you can copy your "Favorites" to a file on your computer or to
a floppy or CD. You can also choose whether they are only stored on your
computer or stored on AOL's server too. If you're using an older version of
AOL, you really should update to AOL 9.0. It's a free download from AOL.

Assuming you're using AOL 9.0, click "Settings" on the Toolbar and using the
"Index" view, click "Favorite Places Preferences". Make sure "Only store my
Favorite Places on my computer" is not checked. Click "Save". Your Favorites
will be saved on AOL's server. Even if you reformat, get a new computer or
log on to AOL from any computer that has AOL software on it, you can access
your favorites.

If you want to copy or save your favorites, Click "Favorites" on the
Toolbar. Click "Manage" and you will find the options to save, copy, etc.
your Favorites.

By the way, this is not a "Windows" issue. AOL can better help you than
people here. Try "Help" in AOL and you'll find lot's of information.
