Trouble on aol

12 years ago

Any aol users here? nothing but problems the last two days people complaining and sending me emails that they can't post on message boards etc. I cant get links to open either aol's or web sites. maybe oncein a while Just wondering if others have problems or maybe they think it is their computer.

Not aol, but we have three Cricket broadband wireless accounts for internet and all three have been disconnecting 40 or 50 or 60 times a day. Frustrating has he!!

Hi aide to an angel,

No advice on the original question: don't use AOL.

Bea and I had a marvelous trade. She's very prompt and neat and so, so generous. But, trumping even that ... Bea is simply a sweetheart. Kind and caring and a wonderful conversationalist. I was happy just trading emails with her, let alone the great seeds. I would trade with her again anytime and hope to keep in touch. Thank you, Bea. ~ Jen

Good Morning! I spent a few hours yesterday doing long overdue "Fall" clean up. It was just gorgeous outside, bright sunshine mid 50's hope to finish it up today with even warmer temps in the forcast. I have gotten so soft living in the south, brrrr, don't think I could stand a northern winter anymore! It was so wet in November and December and freezing in January I am glad to get a reprieve even if it only lasts a week or so! Shirley Beth really stocked up on 'squirrels' for the swap! they are too cute and what a great flag! I hope you are enjoying the warm weather! Jeanne I hope all goes well at the vet and your dog gets well soon. Heidi What a handsome boy you have there! He really seems to be enjoying the Squirrely visits! Laura GREAT Squirrel pics! I couldn't find a squirrel photo (I know I have dozens) but here is a relative. I can imagine the birds chittering 'who's the knew guy?!?!' I hope everyone is staying safe and warm! Have a terrific day! Frances

well you do need to be updating your IE to IE 7 at least very soon because support for 6 is ending or has already ended and you will be with out security updates for it so that is critical. I would remove aol then try to re-install it if you just insist on having it, I try to steer people off of aol because it is such a problem child and it really is not needed. as zep said we need more info on exactly what is happening when it is happening and what error messages you are getting.

Goodbye, old bras! (for women, obviously...)
Q

Hm, well. . .is anyone smaller in size, like me? Frankly I'm always a little embarrased to buy bras because I need an add-a-size padded bra just to make me look semi-shapely. I'd never go to a fitter--would make me feel like a pre-teen (and I'm 50). If the straps don't stretch out first, the padding goes bad after a number of washes.

I haven't used AOL in years. But I read in the New York Times just this week that the CEO is bringing the company back to its' former glory.

I mostly use AOL to browse and yes it has been slow or no to load the past few days much of the time. If I switch over to Internet Explorer everything loads just fine, so I know that it is AOL's problem.

I'm glad I didn't do any of the things suggested by the aol help people right now it has gone back to normal for me and a lot of other folks.

OJ if I had someone to sit and hold my hand while I tried another browser I'd do it
