  2. Vaccines

    Am I missing something here, Novak Djokovic isn't allowed to play tennis in the US Open because he is not vaccinated, but the border allows illegals to come in by the thousands, regardless of their vaccination status? AOL, say something, please.

  5. Please remove the

    Please remove the added information on everyone in my address list. I do not need to see how many emails I have shared with this person and I do not need to see what the subject of our last email was posted. I also do not need to see photos posted in this address list. I find this very intrusive and was done without my approval. Also just because I have the last name of some of my contacts does not mean we are related.
    I dislike this new feature you have forced upon me. There was no way to…

  8. How to find info on new aol builds

    Since the what's new icon seems to have disappeared, the following link takes you to a page where you can read about the newest aol build.

    https://beta.aol.com/projects/desktop/windows/?icid=aolclient_favs_whatsnew

    Be sure to paste this link into the aol browser and not use a third party browser like firefox or google chrome. This is the only way to read about what an update gives you.

  15. Here is a suggestion, ANSWER ME!!!

    I seem to have been locked out of making comments. I received no warning as to this and NO comment AS TO HOW LONG IT WILL BE. I have tried MANY times to get an answer about this to no avail!

    I know you will scream about violating community standards, NO! I know the event that brought it on. I had made a comment that was censored for violating COMMUNITY STANDARDS. I SAW NOTHING THAT WOULD VIOLATE ANY COMMUNITY STANDARDS! I was angered and copied the post and reposted it after removing a sentience which was of course blocked. I…

  17. Have AOL Desktop Gold be able to open multiple sites as do other email carriers.

    Fix AOL Desktop Gold so that users are able to open it in multiple address sites at the same time on the computer they're using so that information and files can be transferred immediately. This would be a BIG improvement for users, ESPECIALLY paid users, to have access to their various sites at the same time not unlike other carriers.

  18. 1. Include option to remove or block the Trending Terms List in the taskbar. Undesirable clutter!

    Pls. give User option to block or remove the Trending Terms List that automatically appears when typing a url for website search in the AOL taskbar. This seems to appear with the most recent version of AOL Desktop Gold and is unwanted clutter. Also, difficult to correctly enter a url for web search until the Trending Terms List appears! Frustrating, unnecessary...a step backward. Please give Users an option to turn this feature off!!!

  19. New Update leads to more ***** ups!

    Every time AOL does an update it screws something up....last update to REVISION 11.0.3800 now has my Old Email listing all screwed up! Mail from last year in with last week, last month on top, yesterday's mail mixed in all over the place instead of being listed first...Happens ever "Darn" time AOL does an update...If AOL was FREE I'd expect problems but I PAY for these headaches but not much longer at this rate! Also...half the time never told if the email I just sent was actually sent....really is a "PITB" (pain in the butt) but you know what I…

  20. AOL 800# TECH SUPPORT ACTUALLY MAKE PROBLEMS WORSE. READ BELOW

    AOL 800# Tech support is all foreign based so AOL Corporate officers can maximize their pay. AOL Tech Support usually creates more damage and make problems worse. AOL continues to utilize an idiotic, problematic browser arrangement that needs continuous reworking and updating. Their main default, workaround and fallback is to Reload the AOL Gold program via BOMGAR session, which most always causes loss of your AOL program-open settings and loss of all your personal TOOL-BAR settings and Icons which you have placed there, but, of course, always retrains the AOL commercial Icons, which actually can, and should be deleted. These…
