  2. AOL Gold for mac users

    Again, why is there no AOL Gold for Macs? Is AOL so successful that it doesn't care about, what 15% of users who use Macs?

  3. Multiple browser Tabs not being highlighted

    While multiple tabs are opened in the browser, only the one that the members are currently on is highlighted, leaving the other tabs that are in the background to be extremely difficult to see and read. The only option to know what is already opened is to access it, which is NOT user friendly. It would also help if the contrast was higher and the colour should be changed to something else than blue. PLEASE correct this error for the benefit of all users!!! Thank you for your consideration.

  4. It is possible that I can go back to the previous version of AOL?

    The previous version was better. Every time you make a change it is a step backwards.

  8. First, after being off line for 3 days (or maybe more) My AOL MESSENGER NOT SHOWING UP. I spoke to Shane, then Esther who was very kind.

    No one told me that MESSENGER is not part of AOL! I need all of the names that were on my Instant Messenger that I have used for 29 years. I don't have a list of my MANY CONTACTS. I SUGGEST, FIND THAT ENTIRE LIST AND EMAIL IT TO ME IMMEDIATELY!! If I knew that you were removing it, there is no excuse for not notifying me!
    Shame on AOL. i already signed in, now it says SIGN IN REQUIRED!

  12. Glad your recent font enlargement of highlighted email addresses is gone today!

    Thank you for getting rid of the enlarged font when email addresses were highlighted. It was extremely annoying. It was so awful that I considered canceling AOL and just using Google or Safari to read my mail.

  14. Expand the sign in screen to include all 7 email addresses.

    Each time I switch email addresses from my business to my personal or vice versa I am forced to scroll down because the sign in screen only shows 5 email addresses. Go back to the old sign in screen!

  15. user not maintaining a good connection between the aol software and server

    It seems that the aol desktop gold software is not coded right to allow a smooth experience for the user. There is constant freezing for a second or two anytime I try to do anything on the software, from reading email to reading an article to typing feedback.
    A third party browser doesn't have this problem. Things are not always in sync.

    It seems like the servers just can't handle the load. A way to fix that would be to add more server capacity. It could also be the amount of network traffic, but again, adding more capacity to the…

  16. REMOVE SOUND ALERTS (BELLS) FROM EMAILS YOU RECENTLY ADDED

    The bells you added to the emai addresses don't allow you to now copy large numbers of emails to post and send. You have to go back and erase each bell by each name. PLEASE REMOVE THIS FEATURE, THE BELLS FROM ALL EMAILS.

  17. email in aol desktop gold

    I like the latest build of aol desktop gold. A lot of fixes in place. The software is a lot more better than before. AOL doesn't seem to crash as much

    A big thank you to the IT department.

    However, I know that there is still work to be done and I'm sure that aol desktop gold still needs work.

    The email is still not quite as smooth as it could be. I have both a gmail and yahoo email account and both of those email accounts are very smooth when switching from new to old to sent email.

    For…

  18. A gigantic improvement ....

    Stop spending your time writing negative stories....we are tired of hearing about police beating up minorities for apparently no reason....how about some positive stories about law enforcement.....the police are having enough difficulty hiring replacements, as many take early retirement and resign.... eventually the quality of police will tank....does anyone want to see that?
