A friend just signed up for AAdvantage. Can she claim previous trips within the year? Thanks!
It would appear the answer is "no," but it doesn't hurt to ask/try:

"You may request mileage credit for past, eligible transactions up to 12 months from the transaction date. Transactions prior to your enrollment date are not eligible for mileage credit."

There was a time where there was a very unofficial policy of crediting flights within about 30 (or even 60) days prior to enrollment if they felt like making an exception-- usually more likely in the case of full-fares or premium fares.
But, as stated above, the official policy is most definitely no.
