  4. Unbelieveable!

    I don't know what the heck is going on there. I try to get a story on Queen Elizabeth and I get something about giraffes. Several times in the past I've tried to look at a story, but a different one showed up. I'm beginning to think that you folks could louse up a two car funeral.

  5. News articles problems - broken links or contain viruses.

    Frequently when I try to open an article from the main page or a sub-page either the link is broken or a virus or worm infects my system. You need to do a better job making sure posts are clean.

  11. I have been with AOL close to 30 years. The AOL Welcome screen is now too big of a file to load. It slows down my computer.

    I have been with AOL close to 30 years. The AOL Welcome screen is now too big of a file to load. It slows down my computer. I have found the increase in advertisements has increased the loading time of the welcome screen. It seems AOL has packed every spare nook and cranny with advertisements. This has increased the AOL loading time.

  12. E-mail that I'm sending to myself is being "spammed" yet isn't showing up in my AOL computer files (yet does show on my mobile AOL e-mail.

    I send e-mail to myself all day long as a reminder for thoughts/news stories to examine later.. I'm finding them sent to my SPAM folder on my mobile account, but not even as being sent of "spammed" on my computer account.

    This is not the only area of censorship I've been subject to by AOL.

    Try clearing the Footprints in the new AOL Desktop. Here’s how: a. In the top left corner of the AOL Desktop window, click “Edit” then choose “Select Footprints to Clear” from the drop-down menu. b. Select “Clear Footprints” from the Browser Settings. No need to wait for a confirmation message, the Footprints will be cleared immediately.

    In case the issue persists please restart the software.

  17. Redesign AOL Desktop Gold so that when there is a breakdown like today, we can at least access email save on our computers, like the old AOL

    Redesign AOL Desktop Gold so that when there is a breakdown like today, we can at least access email save on our computers, like the old AOL DT. It's really ridiculous that DT Gold claims that we can save email to our computers, but in reality we can't see it unless we go online and log in.

  18. It would be nice if the "manage my account" was fixed and available. Only a few items listed are available, out of service.

    Please fix the "manage my account" . Only a few are available to use, are others are an "oops, try again".

  20. Sending email with small attachments takes far too long

    Fix AOL Gold email. Sending email with small attachments with as few as two photos takes far too long. Sometimes a message appears that an error occurred and to try re sending in 5 minutes. Same issue if you try to place the email in "send later". I am a paying customer and this is the type of product we are paying for?
