  2. I changed font in mail to 18; stays for a few wks then goes back to 10....annoying.

    Would appreciate font staying at the one I chose -- not to change, by itself, to a different font.

  5. I need to be able to open two+ emails and have them side by side to compare! Instead, all emails open up in the same box. Terrible!!!!

    Every email should open in their own window. You can not compare emails or perform other tasks involving two emails when you can only see one at a time. This needs to be addressed immediately since it is a major problem. I have been an AOL paid subscriber since the 1990s, but this problem has me seriously considering leaving unless it gets fixed immediately! I am in the travel business, and not being able to compare side by side emails is a major inconvenience.

  8. opening an email makes me start at the end of the email - and not at the top of the email

    Could we please have our opened emails start at the beginning of the email...instead of it starting with the end of the email? It didn't use to be like this.

    Who starts at the bottom of an email and reads up? When I open an email I have to scroll to the top to start reading it. This is very annoying.

    Can we go back to opening an email at the top of the email?

    Thank you!!!!!

  14. Repair AOL Desktop Gold browser for viewing reels and videos

    I'd like issue resolved as to why I have to use Microsoft Edge to watch videos and/or movies. Aol constantly stops and buffers any reel that I watch. If I'm going to keep paying for service I'd like to be able to use AOL only for all my needs!

  16. AOL Desktop Gold feels plain and a bit boring

    I think AOL Desktop Gold would be much better if it brought back AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) as part of the platform. Back in the days of AOL 9.0, AIM was a huge part of why people stayed logged in—it gave AOL personality and made it fun to connect with friends in real time.

    Right now, AOL Desktop Gold feels plain and a bit boring because there’s not much to do besides email and basic browsing. Bringing back AIM, even in a modernized form, could make AOL Desktop Gold more interactive, social, and appealing to both long-time members and new…

    We deliver updates to AOL Desktop Gold fairly regularly. The Help -> About window will show you if you qualify for an update. The "what's new" page in favorites will show you the dates of all of our updates.

    We researched this issue and found that the SASCU website you are using has updated their web certificate, but only on the website when you add the www prefix. Their recommendation was to use the following URL to access their site.

    https://www.sascu.com/

    or

    www.sascu.com

  20. PLEASE REMOVE THAT NEW AOL GOLD POPUP THAT WILL NOT GO AWAY!

    WE THINK IT IS COLOSSALLY ***** OF AOL TO INVADE PAYING CUSTOMERS EMAIL THAT KIND OF ***!. IF I WAS RICH ENOUGH I'D BUY AOL AND FIRE YOUR NARROW **.
