  2. No Service

    05 JAN 2023 - All day when I try to open an email, or link, I receive the prompt: it can't at this time, try back in 5 minutes. It should say "hours." I pay extra monthly; for what?

  12. I have used AOL Desktop Gold since it started. Up until September 20th. when a new e-mail was delivered to me, it would automatically appear

    I have used AOL Desktop Gold since it started. Up until September 20th. when a new e-mail was delivered to me, it would automatically appear in my NEW folder, which I always keep open on my screen. Now, I hear the sound notification of a new e-mail, but it does not show up in my NEW folder like always. Now I have to refresh the folder, an extra step. How will I know that THERE IS a new e-mail? What if I can't hear the sound notification or have my sound muted? This has only started since a AOL Software…

  14. To save or not to save log in password

    Once I select "do not save password" for log in, that should never change unless I do so. To keep having the "save password" box automatically checked, when switching screen names, even after selecting "NO", is aggravating and wrong on your part.

  15. How do I actually contact AOL? This forum is ridiculous and totally worthless. AOL doesn't see these posts.

    How do I reach a human at AOL and get a response? How do I even get the reply to this post if there is one? This entire communication process is flawed and totally and completely worthless.

  17. A few weeks ago my entire email List somehow was somehow converted into different categories. I didn't choose or set up these categories.

    A few weeks ago my entire email List somehow was converted into different categories. I didn't choose or set up these categories. Some of my contacts were eliminated completely.

    Also when I get an email it starts talking to me.
    How do I get rid of all of this and get my old email setup back?
    Thank you.

  20. Issues still present in aol desktop gold

    There are still issues present in aol desktop gold.

    1) Icons are missing from under safety all the way to help. This only affects computers that have an amd processor.
    2) videos still play on auto on the welcome screen.
    3) No manual update for check for updates.
    4) The software causes my hard drive light to stay solid for a good 10 minutes before turning off.

    There may be other issues present still, but these come to mind.
