  1. I have been a subscriber for almost 30 years (remember DOS) but you have made it impossible for me to continue much longer.

    The recent surprise change in allowing me to read aol emails in outlook is unfortunate. The aol generated pw does not work in desktop outlook. Plus the pw needs to be regenerated often since it is dropped frequently. Your browser is filled with ads that obstruct received information. plus you want to charge me to ask questions or even complain. Too bad Aol decided to abandon loyal subscribers.

    Thanks for reaching out, sorry to hear you’ve had issues with your AOL account used on Outlook. I’m here to help!

    In order to remove the account you go to File in the upper left corner, then click on Account Settings – Select the account you want to remove. Then, in order to re-add it, you have to go to File – Add account – Manually configure server settings or additional server types. There you have to enter the account details along with the servers and the app generated password ( Choose Outlook Desktop from the drop down menu ). Then you click on More Settings then go to Advanced and make sure the ports and the SSL encryption are correct.

    Thank you!

  8. I have been waiting in the "chat" room regarding having to update security info. Time is running out when this service is available on the w

    The service you want us to continue required difficult steps for computer challenged, phone usage and tablet users. Trying to use the help phone numbers resulted in unacceptable wait times (over 20 minutes). We live in a very rural area with no decent cell phone ability. We have aol gold. We have paid for this supposed service but have not seen any benefit regarding this last demand from you to upgrade for security reasons. ******* was hacked this year and when he started this upgrade, his favorites list disappeared - on a Verizon phone..We know aol is owned by Verizon.…

    While the connection you have been using may still work and was once the best, a better, more secure option is available. Basic auth is an older authentication method. A more secure authentication method called OAuth2 is now available. To ensure your account remains secure, we are requiring all applications to support OAuth2. You can of course continue to use your preferred email application after October 20th, however you need to follow these steps: https://bit.ly/AOLAppPassword .

    We did send an email that we’re updating our authentication policies around third-party email access to better protect your email account. You may need to update your account settings in third-party programs to use a more secure approach. By default, we block access to your email account if you are using outdated apps that could leave your account vulnerable. If we sent you an email indicating that your app is using outdated security protocols or you’re unable to log in from an older app, you still have several options available to you. See here more info:

    Hi there. If you don’t use a 3rd party app or if you are using one but you already have secured your account, you can ignore the emails received from us regarding that.

  17. when I used the app it permanently deleted my emails. I don't know how to retrieve them. I'm upset about this.

    make it easier to retrieve these emails without us having to try out a program to retrieve the emails that doesn't include aol email.

    Hello there. If you have trouble receiving emails, the first steps we recommend you take is to check your Spam Settings and your Filter and Alerts settings. Please ensure they do not contain harmful filters that may prevent incoming emails from reaching your Inbox. Should you find such filters, we recommend removing or modifying them, as needed. Please sign out and back in for the changes to take full effect.

    We also recommend resetting the password and making sure the account is secure: https://help.aol.com/articles/recognize-a-hacked-aol-mail-account

    Thank you,

  19. In trying to access a news story, I'm being asked for my password. When I tap on it to enter the password, the keyboard won't pop up.

    Since the keyboard won't pop up, I can't type my password. I've refreshed, turned phone off/on, but no help. What now?!?
