Hi, I am having difficulty downloading emails from my AoL account to my Laptop, Samsung phone and my iPad. For some reason the last emails it shows are from last Tuesday. I can get to up to date emails if I login direct to AOL.com. Any help you can offer would be most appreciated. Thank you Barrie

I do my email on an android phone. I can't do any 'Bold' or 'Underlining'. I can't do anything with my text. I googled and it said to go into my 'settings'. There is no 'settings'. Google said it was on the toolbar above the 'TO' field. The only thing above my 'to' field is the 'cancel' selection. I've tried everything. No toolbar. Is a toolbar not accessible from a phone?
