  2. Red number on aol desktop gold email

    I have noticed that when I'm on aol desktop gold on my desktop which has amd hardware, the red number by the read icon goes down as I'm going through my email and yet on my laptop, which has intel hardware, the red number by the read icon doesn't always go down as I'm going through my email.

    Looks like a bug in the aol desktop gold software.

  6. improve aol desktop gold email

    After getting the newest update for aol desktop gold, the email, while improved, is still not right and I have had the aol software close out of the blue while going through email.
    Not a big deal though.

  11. Please fix the copy/paste function - it seldom works and now has a copied bit of text stuck in the copy memory so it's messed up other sw!

    In GOLD, the copy/paste function in Write does not work correctly. Usually it doesn't copy at all; now it is holding onto the last thing I managed to copy in AOL several days ago so that I cannot copy anything else from any application. I just keep getting that same bit of text from an AOL screen. I see others have complained about copy/paste, but you've closed the issue. But it is NOT fixed yet!! Please reopen!! Thanks

  19. My email box is going hey wire....

    When I read an email and then mark it unread it would stay in fine print, that way I knew that I had looked at it. Now when I open an email and mark it unread, it goes back to bold like I have never opened it, so now I have a box full of what looks like to me, emails that I have never looked at and it has screwed up my entire system. Emails that I had a handle on and now I can not tell what is what anymore and it looks to me like I need…

  20. Mail I have read is staying in my New mail folder instead of just the IN or Old mail folders as it did until 2 days ago.

    Mail I have read is staying in my "New"mail folder instead of moving to the "IN" or "Old" mail folders upon closing Mail on the AOL Desktop Gold -- this just started happening 8/17/2020. Was there an update that caused this?
