  1. Using the right aol feedback tool

    There are two ways to submit feedback and report bugs in aol desktop gold. Under help, choose either submit feedback or report a bug.

    Submit feedback is how to make aol desktop gold better and report a bug is explaining a problem that you're having with aol desktop gold.

    I have used both. My understanding is that the report a bug, lets aol engineers look into the problem, while submit feedback lets the aol staff know about things, which can then be passed onto the engineers.

  2. End aol software manually

    A way to end the aol software manually is to use the windows task manager by either pressing ctrl, shift and esc or going to the start button and typing taskmgr.

    When the task manager appears, on the applications tab, you can end the aol software by clicking on end task or go to the processes tab, click on the aoldesktop.exe, right click, and left click on end process, and click on yes to confirm.

    Two reasons for doing this.
    1) If the software just isn't playing nice with you and freezes
    or
    2) If the software takes over 3…

  4. Please bring back AOL Desktop on macOS

    While I enjoy AOL Desktop on Windows, and also use the mobile app, it would be fantastic if AOL were to bring back the Desktop application on macOS. For decades, AOL provided premium services for Mac users and that seems to have gone away. Now, with the internal rendering engine of ADG being based on Chromium, it wouldn't be terribly difficult to backport ADG to a macOS application. I would literally buy cake, coffee, etc to say thank you to the AOL dev teams if you could make this happen :)

  5. AOL desktop gold bug check

    I'm not sure if this is already in feedback.

    When submitting an a bug check, the user should get an email confirming that the bug check feature has been sent to the aol engineering team and is currently being looked into.

  7. Any chance you can date posts in the Customer Feedback? And their responses?

    When I read the comments and responses here in the Customer Feedback for AOL, I don't know how old the comment is so don't know if it is new or years old and has been resolved. Any way to put a date on them?

  11. Annie Cloth should not advertise with you!

    I'm very concerned about a vendor I learned about while on AOL Gold, called "Annie Cloth" because they are virtually unwilling to take returns and only willing to give me back 15 percent of what I paid as recompense for their merchandise that is the wrong size. Read about them on PissedConsumer.com and learn how dissatisfied customers are. If I continue to see Annie Cloth on AOL, I will know I cannot trust your advertisers. Thanks.

  13. Don't like the new format for comments

    Don't like the new format for comments. It's too hard to find what I've previously posted and any replies to any of my posts. Go back to the old way. What do we have here - a new person in charge who wants it his/her way instead of the best way?

  20. Los Angeles weather

    The weather in San Fernando Valley, CA is very different from Los Angeles weather. In the old AOL version, I was able to get my Reseda, CA weather. Now, the only weather I can get is Los Angeles, so i never know what the Reseda weather will be like. Other major cities in the Valley are Van Nuys, Northridge, Woodland Hills, Chatsworth. Why do you include them all with Los Angeles, which has very different weather? The San Fernando weather is hotter than Los Angeles. Example, the weather in Los Angeles is 87 today. It is over 100 in the…
