How do I save/export AIM chat history on the iPhone?
I have the AIM app (the free version, without ads, downloaded this month) installed on my iPhone (4th gen iPhone). I would like to export (or copy+paste, or email...etc) my AIM-iPhone chat logs. Is it possible to do this? I can't seem to copy any text from the AIM chat history screen on the iPhone. Do I have to resort to tons of screenshots? Help!!

Then, sync with iTunes and it will backup the logs to your computer.
Open Terminal and navigate to to the Backups directory, and search for your word:
cd "~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/"
grep xyzzyq */*
It should find two files, the spelling dictionary and your chat log file. The log file looks like JSON.
