Besides getting a refund by cancelling how far out can I reschedule this flight?

Also, for some reason aa.com doesn't let me change the time of the first leg of my rescheduled flight....just the subsequent legs.

Thanks
Go on google flight and find the next available flight that fits your schedule. Call AA. If it's another AA flight, easy to change. If its UA, then just cancel your AA flight and use the trip credit towards a future flight. Just book UA on your own.
