Jocelyne Asked September 2019

How do I update my Profile as mom is now in a nursing home. Edit Account is nowhere to be seen. Please be very specific.

Thank you.

Here is how it works on my laptop:

Click on the Avatar. A drop down menu will appear.
Select Settings. It's the second to last item on that list.
After you click, it will take you to another page.
Under the thick blue bar near the top, you'll see the same options from the previous drop down menu, but this time horizontally. Under those options, you will see in smaller letter more options: My Topics, Caring For, About Me, Subscriptions, My Account, and Privacy.
You can click on any of those selection and edit/add the info.

Trying this again:

Click on your Avatar.
Click on Settings.
Click on About me, or Caring for

"Caring for" or "About me" can be found in light gray just below the blue-green bar, in faded smaller font.

Save your entry.

Yes, just like Barb, Glad, CWillie, and now I have said.

THANK YOU EVERYONE... It worked! Funny how you can gloss right over a whole section! So appreciative...

The upper right avatar is located on the blue-green strip called the navigation bar,
should be at the top of this page.

I think you can click on your own avatar as seen elsewhere, as in your post just now.

Click on 1) Avatar
Click on 2) Settings
Click on 3) "About Me" or "Caring for"
Then delete and add what you want to say.
Be sure to "SAVE".

Let me know when you find out. I access the site from links in AC email, which may not give me the full AgingCare experience.

DizzyBritches,
Yes, I did login from my emails the first year that I was visiting this website.

You can "Pin it" to your "Favorites, or "Bookmark it" so AC will show up on your computer home page. Then click on that.

I "Pinned" my "News Feed" as my favorite, then click on that to get direct to my news feed.

You want to "LOG OUT" each time.
Click on your avatar until the drop down menu has a LOG OUT choice.

When you come back, you will need to LOG IN with your screen name and password. This can be "saved" or "remembered" so you won't have to re-enter it each time.

You can read the website without logging in, however, to read your messages, or to send a message, you need to be LOGGED IN.

Oh, how I wish someone could explain this better. I had my husband's help.

When I tap my avatar on the upper right, go to settings, select About Me I see a page that looks like this:
........................................................................................................................................................
The more information you share the better your AgingCare experience will be.
First Name Date of Birth

Male Female

Zip Code

Write a few words about yourself
....................................................................................................................................................
You should be able to erase and re write in any of the coloured sections, just remember to Save when you are done.

I have this same question....

i followed your directions, but no where is there an "edit" option. Just "see more...". Or "see less...".

So once i am into the "about me" how do I get the option to Edit?

Have you found it,Katie?
There is not an edit button on the "about me" page. You just backspace through what you don't want there, type what you want, and then the "save" button is at the bottom of the entry box.

Click your avatar, upper right, select settings, then "about me" on ribbon..

Like Barb said😁

BarbBrooklyn Sep 2019
Click on "settings". At the top of the box there are boxes for "about me", "caring for" etc. Be sure to SAVE after you've made changes.
DizzyBritches Sep 2019
Ah, it’s in Settings. Thank you, Barb.
