  3. How to repair AOL

    I could repairf he previous version of AOL by going to the System Information. I can get System Information with the Gold version, but then get an error message, so I can't repair it. Right now, I have the following problems that I need to repair:

    1) This Gold Version of AOL

    2) I can't save any user name or password on any website on the Internet. I put a check in the blank space, but it is not saved.

  4. Can anyone explain to me WHY I AM STILL AN AOL MEMBER? Yes I've been with them for 30+ years, but why? AOL is the worst web service there is

    My idea, (and this is brilliant, why didn't I think of this sooner) is to get a new account with a modern company like Google, ho did someone say that its free). Set my AOL account up with an auto reply to my NEW BETTER ACCOUNT WITH SOMEONE ELSE. Does AOL still do that. And after a couple months just leave AOL. Brilliant. I've been a member with AOL for over 30+years, but today I discovered that my bank (chase) does not allow AOL to access their web, too unsecured. AOL was high tech in their day, but then so…

  10. AOL Gold Desktop doesn't recognize my Adobe Flash and PDF programs

    Ever since I downloaded and have used the new AOL Gold Desktop, the program does not recognize that I already have Adobe Flash on my computer, no need to download it again for AOL's use. I keep it updated but not through AOL Gold Desktop. It works fine except for the constant "Download Adobe Flash" message. Same is true for PDF files, When I download a PDF file, I cannot read it from AOL Gold Desktop. I have to sign off, go searching for the PDF file, then read it separately. Tired of the error message to download Adobe Flash…

  16. Screen going black

    SCREENS CHANGING SIZE AND TURNING BLACK:

    I use Desktop Gold as my primary browser. I log onto Gold with the main AOL Gold strip at the top, and the Welcome screen to my left and then also My Favorites screen on my right. Everything seem OK as long as I continue doing something on the desktop or internet, but as soon as I let it go idle for 10-15 minutes or so, my screen goes to sleep(as I do have it set for that feature) but also I start hearing"bubble" type notification sounds in the background. If and when I…

  18. Beta 2454 STILL "Not Responding"

    This has been a continuing problem for me..
    Your previous request to me was:
    1. Open AOL Desktop Gold.
    2. Click on Help on the top right, and select Report a Bug from the
    drop-down menu.
    3. Type a short description of the problem, and click Send.

    Tell me please, How do I "Open AOL Desktop Gold" to send a "Bug report" when it does NOT RESPOND?!!

    There would be NO PROBLEM showing after it opens .

    Today, with this one. I had to cancel and restart AOL about 5 times before it opened!! ... It remains locked up showing…

  19. Check for Updates is STILL not working.

    Check for updates does nothing. The previous answer to the previous asking of this question does not tell me if my AOL Gold NOW is up to date, since the answer has no date in it. (Poking around finally shows that it is more than a year old.)
