If you google "I can't get into my Facebook account" there are lots of hits. Here are some.

All those links lead to the same junk page...except for the last link.
That gives options to fix the problem but in the end, it still leads to the junk page.

I give up!
Maybe I will try again in a week or so.
Thanks for all the suggestions.

Yes, in order to set up a Facebook page, you NEED a TEENAGER!

Yes I agree with Lynnie, but that's just me. Plus I have read a lot of other things about what they can get on you once you join, but you won't know it. (just a for what it's worth)

I have not bothered with it either. I don't need 300 friends that I really don't know. Those friends I do have I prefer to pick up the phone and have an actual conversation with. And no, my phone is not one you have to dial or put a quarter in. For those of you that do have Facebook, enjoy. It is just not for me

Thought I was the only one around who didn't do FB...glad to know others have the same aprehension about it. I have a dd who basically tells all her "friends"along with photos what she cooked for dinner, when her and her hubby go anywhere there are pics.....gkids too! I told her not to put the kids pics up as I read somewhere there are hackers who look for kids pics for "their personal drool sessions"---if you know what I need.....but she just raises an eyebrow and shakes her head.....

What I love about Facebook is I can keep tabs on my family without their having to contact me directly Everyone is so busy anymore.
Persevere, you'll get the hang of it.

I don't "do" Facebook either, and I'm a Gen X'er. I was on there, but it just made me realize how awful so many of my extended family members are. I got tired of racist posts and un-friended a bunch of them, which caused a bunch of drama and noise. (Apparently I'm the bad guy in all that.)

I don't trust Facebook with my personal information and I don't care about what my friends had for dinner, so I shut my profile down. Technically it's still there, but I don't go on there anymore and I have it set so people can't tag me in photos or on posts. People can message me and I'll get an email, other than that it's all shut down and I like it that way.
