  2. Trouble with Desktop Gold AGAIN when logging in

    We have 2 email addresses. We have to log in with user name and password every time. Clicking "save password" doesn't do a thing. The font is off also, and when I click on Mail Settings to change the font, nothing comes up.

  4. Help! My address book is not working well at all.

    Hello; For the last few days, anytime I make a change to my aol address book, I'm getting messages where the address book function is having problems and to try again in five minutes. I wait ten minutes, try again, but continue to get the same message. Yesterday I created several groups and this morning, they showed up just perfectly in my address book. Tonight, all but two are gone. This is really causing me a lot of stress, since I use aol to notify my church family of sickness, info, etc. What's going on? Thank you!

  5. Changed Passwords not being saved

    Thank you for not closing this.. See my Post below

    When I do a changed password, I never see the "Do you Want to Save this new Password" (or some such check-off), and of course the old passwords keeps coming up..

    IE, Edge, Firefox & Chrome all work as expected - not AOL's Browser.

    The Email "Mark Unread"  function does not work to restore Email from the "My Mail Folders" "Incoming/ Saved Mail" file.  Why is this?  Can you fix it?  This same restore function from the "Recently Deleted" file is also intermittent and problematic.  Can you fix this too?

  7. Old mail

    If I'm finally able to open Old Mail and try to open one all I get is a blank gray box, the same thing I get when my bank sends me the weekly update. Norton has scanned my hard drive and nothing.

  9. FIX the browser IMPORT saved password and bookmarks

    When I was looking to see why a saved password didn't work, I found most were missing.

    used Settings> Browser> passwords.
    I started the IMPORT for saved passwords from my Chrome brower about 45 minutes ago, and it is STILL RUNNING !?!

    Canceling and Bringing up a new instance, I see NO added saved passwords!

  10. password saving STILL not working properly

    I've seen the Question "Save this password?" come up when adding a new URL login. So I know it CAN WORK - sometimes.

    BUT -

    I had changed my password for a site. The AOL browser tried to use the old one, and of course it failed. I entered the new password, but it was NOT SAVED, it continued to use the old one, I continued to enter the new one, to no avail - the old password was NOT replaced.

    Went to SETTINGS.- BROWSER - PASSWORDS, the box is Still checked.
    I DELETED the site's entry and stored password,…

  15. Passwords STILL not being saved

    YES, I have "Save" set in Passwords via the Settings,
    NO, Passwords are NOT being saved..

    I've mentioned this several times over several releases.
    When the password had been changed and I'm told it is the
    wrong password, entering a DIFFERENT one and it does NOT
    swap out the old for new.
    I deleted the FACEBOOK entry for that reason, hoping that it will
    put them back with the new password.. NO, FACEBOOK and when I did enter it Neither ID or Password was saved...

  18. How many obstacles can you invent? My AOL GOLD Desktop has been taken from me. How do I get it back by Microsoft? user ***

    Can you read what I just wrote??? Through Microsoft Recovery I have lost my AOL GOLD Desktop, though I had it long before the Recovery date I used. What Edge gives me for AOL is a mess, not easy to use, God knows who invented it.
