  2. Product Support answer

    I received and an answer from Product Support on how to see if I have the latest version of AOL GOLD . He suggested I go to the Help button on the top right corner of the window & select "About AOL" on the drop down menu. And in the middle of the "About AOL Window", you'll see the version you have installed. However, there is NO "About AOL" when I tried to get there????

  3. Everything Needs to be Fixed!

    My idea is to go back to 9.8! I would say that one out of two emails I send, actually send twice...the person receiving gets two identical emails instead of one. And I'm on the receiving end of many duplicate emails. It's time consuming and tiresome!

  4. keeps getting worse

    Not only won't it open it's own pages, it won't open pages that I have saved in My Favorites. How can anyone launch something of this poor quality, and then ask people to pay for it??? And don't even try to open AOL Weather. I've closed this down only to find it still running a half a gig of memory with nothing running.......WTH??? I'm getting tired of having to shut everything down, REBOOT the whole computer and starting over....off to see if AOL Shield will work on anything.....

  6. Midis don't play on this browser.

    They play in Internet Explorer. Please fix this. I have tried several different midi codes to no avail. For this and for other reasons I have been using Internet Explorer as my browser. Also, when I right click on properties on a graphic all I get is the name of the file. Internet Explorer shows a lot more info thn that. This is a horrible browser.

  10. Can you make AOL Gold any worse. When switching from one screen name to another it brings the old mail from the other screen name.

    AOL Gold is transferring mail from one screen name to another. Can you make it any worse? Bring back AOL 9.5

  15. Improvement????

    About a week ago, my primary user name was replaced with a secondary one. Now the sign on screen on screen only shows the secondary name and to use the primary name, I have to type it and the password every time I log on. I submitted a bug report but as usual, nobody replies to them. There is NOTHING gold about this...

    Try refreshing the mailbox. Click on the Mail option on the top of the desktop screen and select Refresh Mailbox from the drop-down menu.

    So more steps to accomplish simple tasks. As a bonus "loading" forever.

  19. Highlighting a word in email is not working

    I can neither highlight a word or sentence or change font colors while writing an email. I also can't change the font color if I forward an email from one screen name to another. For example one of my screen names I use a pink font color, in another I use blue. If I forward email to another screen name I can't change the font color. I can't highlight any of the text. I reported this before and was advised to clean my footprints, well thats **** because it didn't work either, nor should I have to clear footprints just…
