Tell us how we can improve your AOL Desktop Gold experience.

← AOL Desktop Gold

Give us back the 9.8 features in Gold

Bring back desktop themes, stationery and emojis for mail, allow us to set up Favorites like we want them, make icons for toolbar available. Most of the time when I'm typing a e-mail, the type doesn't keep up with me and thus missing letters or words. Give us back all the features of 9.8 because Gold is seriously lacking most everything.

    add the ability to use form fillers and password generators like ROBOFORM, that could be used in past editions of AOL ( 9.7 and 9.8).and the use of extensions.

    I am not the one with the scrolling problem.

    The download manager would be really helpful. I go through a lot of emails with attachments, unzipping them one by one is awful. Before files were unzipped as they were downloaded.

    In the old AOL you immediately got a reminder when you first opened your email if
    you had Mail Waiting to be Sent...not in AOL Gold.

    When I close an email in the Waiting to be Sent folder, I DO NOT want it automatically sent to the Draft folder. Keep it where I left it.

    Also, please do not automatically delete emails from the SPAM folder. I chose to
    leave an email in that folder so that I could deal with it at a later time when I was able to deal with it; and when I returned to the SPAM folder, it had been automatically deleted. I'll delete my SPAM!

    When I go to check my new mail, I used to be able to use the mouse to point to an email I'm thinking of opening, and the ENTIRE address of the person/organization sending that email would appear BEFORE I clicked to open it. This was a great feature to help identify emails addresses that I didn't readily recognize. Please
    bring back this feature.

    In AOL Gold when you're sending an email and go to put in the email address that you want to send the email to, when you put in the first letter you get EVERY email address listed that has that letter any where in it, even if it's the LAST letter of an address. This is ridiculous! This makes entering email addresses much more tedious and time consuming. In the old AOL, when you went to enter an email address, you got only email addresses that STARTED with that letter...not your whole address book! Please go back to showing just email addresses from your address book that START with that first letter.

    Completely useless. Bugs galore. You should be paying me to use it.
    Was obviously not ready for distribution.
    Get rid of it, or you'll be owing me a refund every month.

    Unable to delete browsing history when sign-off. Picture options are terrible. The email window could not be worse if it had been designed by a 2nd grade student. You can't highlight deleted emails w/ the shift key unless you first highlight the top email in the awful window. It goes on and on. Why would you release such a terrible version of your software? You should be ashamed. But what you will be is losing many paying customers.

    I want the post card feature back. I used it to send birthday cards and whatever else I needed to send for the proper occasion.
    Make the smiile faces bigger so that they are easy to see them.

    My biggest issue is that I typically send multiple attached images by simply highlighting the images and right click my mouse and go to send recepients and it would automatically attached to the email and list the names of the saved images to the body of the email so that the recepeint can see tbe list of what’s in the attachment . Not only that but it compresses the picture automatically so it can get downloaded a lot quicker then big file attachments that you would normally just attach with the attach icon on the email. Gold does not do this and it’s very frustrating. If you do it with gold it does not attach images and sometimes only sometime it will list the names of the pics but with out the attachment . What a waste of time . Where are the technitions to fix this ??? Bring back Aol 9.8

  • Joni Dahan commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is such a tiny fix compared to larger magnitude of issues gold has this is such a set back as if Aol is intentionally wanting to lose its customers

    My complaints: not happy with new version of address book, not to mention that it no longer automatically appears on my screen, along with all my buddies that are currently online. Also the font selection is very limited, meaning some of the most common fonts are no longer available with AOL Gold.
    I, as well as many others are not happy with the new AOL Gold!!!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agreed, the new version sucks..it slower to use and open.. not compatible with Picassa.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Keep an email open even after sending so as to be able to resend repeatedly to different recipients, to edit, etc. That was always the best feature of AOL software and why I paid extra for 15 years. Without it, there is no advantage of AOL over any other email server.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    What happened to our email extras like the animated symbols. You have taken away everything that made made paying for AOL worth your money. Now we still pay and get the same product as any free email.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Go back to older AOL version, much faster and less compilcated.

  • Cliff commented  ·   ·  Report

    Gold is terrible. Looking into other service to CANCEL AOL. Also very unhappy with all the advertising and very biased liberal reporting,

  • Eddie commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why do I get 4 or 5 clicks then when I look there is one new E-mail?
