How To Relink Your #Twitter and #FB Accounts (Maybe)

Cynthia just mailed me:

Just noticed that tweets are no longer feeding FB. Help?

…knowing that it’s fiddly, I felt it would be worth sharing. I am not entirely sure how I solved it – perhaps there is a more minimal method – but in the end I did this:

1) visit http://apps.facebook.com/twitter/

2) “Want to disconnect your Twitter and Facebook accounts?”

3) Disconnect the accounts

4) Wait a bit

5) “Account > Privacy Settings”

6) “Apps and websites – Edit your settings for using apps, games and websites.”

7) “Twitter”

8 ) “Remove App”

9) Wait a bit

10) “Account > Log out” of facebook

11) Quit the browser and restart it

12) Go to www.facebook.com

13) Check you are _really_ logged out

14) Log in

15) visit http://apps.facebook.com/twitter/

16) subscribe to the app and relink your accounts, which should be a tedious process

17) test

  1. What a load of hastle.
    For the moment I’m not going to bother, as the two parts of my life are mostly seperate, and I’m sure the half dozen that appear in both, could cope with me saying seperate things, or the same thing differently.
    It will mean I shall have to manually post blog posts to Facebook, but for the moment I’ll cope.
    But this is good to know when I get fed up – probably be back sometime!
