Years ago, I bought an iBook G4, and installed AOL for Mac on it. I could use AirPort and connect wirelessly to the internet with no problem through Safari, however when I tried to access the internet through AOL, I just got a blank screen with an asterisk in the upper lefthand corner. Same with keywords, etc. I called Apple, and they walked me through, and had me find and change some setting. Of course, this was years ago.
Now I have a new Mac Book with Leopard, and I have the same exact problem -- if I try to access the internet through AOL, I can't do it. I get that same asterisk on an otherwise blank page. Of course, this time around Apple says it's an AOL glitch (which I don't doubt), but AOL won't help me figure it out because I have a free account. I can't for the life of me remember what I did all those years ago to fix the problem.
Has anyone out there had the same issue? Of course, the obvious solution is to not access the internet through AOL, but still. I want to be able to should I choose to.
