  1. SPAM stuck in SPAM folder

    I posted this a week ago. Got an answer to refresh my email box which I did and indicated in a response that I did. No answer; no fix. Then I posted it as a bug. No answer; no response. Still have the problem but I want some attention paid to this because it is the 3rd time it has happened. I'm tired of it happening...and having to fix it myself only to have it recur again. Clearly a problem with this Desktop Gold software, among many.

  7. Games, we want games, not more ads.

    Fix games. Either can't get on or if i do and am playing a game, it stops.
    because something else is loading, Games should be working as they are part of your plan.

  9. It's not the mouse batteries, IT'S YOU.

    Every time I'm to click the mouse button I have to click it several times before it will connect. Sometimes it will just flip to an entirely unrelated page and then it's impossible to find what I was looking at. What are you doing at AOL these days? You have a lot of people working for you. Why can't someone get this web site right?

  11. Settings are all messed up

    My Avast abtivirus did an update last night, and now I'm having problems with AOL. It no longer has my user name and password saved, even though I've repeatedly told it to. My mail settings are screwed up, and when I try to get to them, all I'm getting is a black screen. What's happening, and how do I correct it? Has anyone else had this problem?

  12. Uninstalling OLD AOL 9.8

    I have been using the new AOL Gold for years.
    I hadn't uninstalled the old AOL 9.8.
    I can find old aol directories and files going back earlier than 2019.
    also 2018 & 2017 files & directories named C_AOL Desktop 9.8.2 & 2a
    I ran the old uninstaller program and though it took a very long time, it showed an EMPTY "Select Applications to Uninstall"

    There was never an explanation of HOW to remove all the junk that the old AOL 9.8 has now become. When & How will you address this issue?

  14. Desktop Pictures Out Of Sync With Captions

    When you open AOL Gold, the pictures (1-55 for 3/28) are continually out of sync with the picture description. This happens every single day! e.g. The picture for picture number 35 has the description from picture number 34. That description from picture 34 stays on Picture 35 for 8 seconds and the correct description for picture 35 appears. I thought Verizon was going to fix the mess at AOL?????

  16. password save

    AOL gold does not prompt me to save usernames and passwords, even though I have selected that function. I do not know how to fix this. I am trying to do it on my Craigslist account. Google chrome saves the username and password. Because of the ease of going to websites on Chrome, I have to have 2 browsers open all the time.
