  7. Bring AOL Back to the Desktop with an AOL Linux Operating System

    Bring AOL Back to the Desktop with an AOL Linux Operating System

    I would like to suggest that AOL explore creating an official AOL-branded Linux desktop operating system.

    AOL has a long history of bringing the Internet to everyday computer users. I believe there is an opportunity to bring that same philosophy into the modern Linux desktop market.

    The concept would be an easy-to-use Linux operating system based on Debian or Fedora, customized and branded by AOL. It could provide users with a simple, familiar desktop experience while integrating AOL services directly into the operating system.

    Possible features

  8. New Tab Button in Browser

    It would be easier workflow to have the New Tab button directly after the furthest existing tab, for example, if there are two tabs open, the New Tab button would be directly after the second tab. Or one tab open, the New Tab button would be directly after that one tab. Instead of having the New Tab button all the way to the right, away from the tabs.

  9. Save Column Widths

    While this is not a new idea, I tough a new appeal might draw attention to it. On the default AOL Desktop screen are “My Mail Folders” on the left and individual emails under “Date”, “From”, and “Subject” headings on the right. I can adjust the width of the “My Mail Folder” area. I can adjust the width of the three email headings. If I switch between the “Inbox”, “New”, “Old”, and “Sent” tabs, the widths remain. However, if I close AOL desktop, they do not get saved. Even going to the “Search Mail” tab and back, resets all of…

  10. AOL Desktop Gold website issues in the built-in browser

    When using AOL Desktop Gold and trying to access the palmbeachpost.com website after a cache/cookie clear, I get the following error : "There was an error signing you in. Please try again or choose another sign-in method. Code RCPTA:3"

    I've already gotten in contact with the website's support already but didn't receive a proper answer.

  12. mail filters should not allow duplicate entries & should sort by filter name

    8-3-26, mail filters should not allow duplicate entries & should sort by filter name & move to. Allow sort for move to so that UNKNOWN can be grouped & changed to RECENTLY. Just accidently saw this change that I was not ware of happening.

  13. Browser context menu

    Just a suggestion for the context menu in the browser when you select a text. For the search menu for the selected text, the context menu currently shows "Search on [selected text]" "Dictionary Search on [selected text]" and "Video Search on [selected text]".

    It confused me at first, because this isn't what we would say when selecting searching. We would search for something, not search on something. So I am providing feedback to change the context menu to show "Search for [selected text]" "Dictionary Search for [selected text]" and "Video Search for [selected text]".

  14. changed color

    Successfully changed the mail scroll bar color to orange, but the selected mail still stays dark blue making it very difficult to read. Hoe do I switch back to light blue for both the scroll bar as well as the selection of mail?

  17. I have been a loyal aol subscriber since it was created the new search engine is horrible I am contemplating cancelling my subscription .

    give me a search engine that takes me to a website for the company I'm looking for not some that offers coupons or a store that sells their products . I've had times I searched for the actual website and haven't found after opening several pages. I'm paying $32 for a useless search engine.
