On the day I made my Facebook account, I logged onto the social media platform and I found out it has been disabled despite the fact I did not upload anything the violates the community standard or account integrity. In addition I tried at different strategies that help you get it back but it did not went well as I expected because there was no appeal to get my disabled account back once I logged in. In addition, I sent an email regarding the concern but the company did not respond back. My question is that how can I get my account back in an alternate way?
Does anyone know the profile of the Facebook page where every year (the first of January) they uploaded a comic that the new year was killing the old year. If I'm not mistaken, it started in 2018 or 2019 and I saw it until 2024 and it always appeared automatically but I haven't seen this year's. I hope you understand and can help me. Thank you.
I woke up and messaged my boyfriend on Messenger; he replied within a minute. I usually keep my Messenger active status off, but I turned it on and saw he was active two hours ago. I'm confused because he replied to my message just a minute ago, yet his last active status shows two hours prior. He hasn't responded since I asked, "Hello? Are you there?" He also says he never turns off his active status.
Scrolling thru my feed, hundreds of obviously fake profiles generating AI images for clicks. Random account names. They all have tons of followers which is ridiculous and obviously fake. This has happened some time ago and just getting worse. I've must have blocked 60 of them so far.
I’ve been extremely active on Facebook since 2007 and have probably made ~25,000 posts in that time — often with my own original photos and videos. If I request a download will the zip file be so large I can’t open it?
And will all of my photos and videos be included without loss of resolution?
I’d appreciate advice.
My wife wanted to remove a photo from a life event and instead, it was removed entirely. Not showing in archives, trash, activity archive, anywhere. It was a life event of our firstborn and had a lot of wishes in it.... :/ she is so sad... Has anyone managed to contact support or found a way to recover it? It does not show anywhere..
I can’t get into my account because it somehow got disconnected from my Duo, and facebook won’t let me recover any other way. I’ve tried account recovery with ID 4 times, no response. What can i do?
Is there a reason why Facebook/meta would pollute the user experience like this and bury our feeds with these annoying ads and follow suggestions.
The only thing I can come up with is maybe annoy the heck out of users then roll out a paid ad-free option? Any other reasons why they are doing this?
I’ll be transitioning out of Facebook and instagram soon but I’m curious what metas motivation is.
Hi guys. I'm new here. I just need help in retrieving deleted Facebook messages. I tried sending an email but it takes forever for them to reply. I also tried the tutorials I saw online but nothing works. I am in kind of a tight situation and need it to be done within the week. Please help me. Thank you very much.
Had to select an option for deleting my account last night. Finally chose "other", as in the selection of innocuous options, there was not one saying "Because you are counts. " They should allow people to type in a reason
I remember having some issues with my profile like 5 years ago, to the point where Facebook said that my profile was broken and would not be recoverable, so it allowed me to download my profile as a zip file, that contained things like a friends list, friend request history, removed friends, all images and videos you had sent between you and a friend, chat logs and such.
Is it possible to do this all the time? Can I do it now? I would very much like to download the collection of videos and images between a specific friend and I.
Hi there,
I'd like to ask is what whould be the case: I was checking my messages on andorid messenger when I noticed that one of my friend's message preview was an already pinned message and it was shown as it was pinned recently. I checked the pinned messages and the date was the original one, what was months ago. After that, I checked on facebook lite and there were no recent message activity about the pin, so my 'crosshair' narrows only to android messenger. After a few hours I got another message about another older pin what was pinned but this time it was my friend's pinned message which was also pinned months ago. I would like to mention that I checked other conversations an there were no such thing like this. I did check on my computer's browser and on PC messenger application. What is the problem? :'D Did I got hecked somehow through my phone?
Edit: I checked my security settings and Facebook sent out 3 messages to my log in addresses although I didn't got them in my letterboxes.
My account that controlled my pages got hacked and perma banned by facebook. Today I paid for the verification on one of the replacements I made so I could contact customer service about it. Customer service said that they can't do anything and the best thing to do would be to have my friends and family report the old pages so I can use the URLs again and there won't be 2 pages anymore.
If you guys could help mass report my old pages that'd be a huge help.
Here are the links to the pages I need reported:
I'm experiencing an issue where Facebook Messenger is excessively draining my computer's resources. My 9800X3D CPU usage is usually around 30%, and my Crucial T700 Chrome is constantly writing at a speed of 40MB/s when the Messenger window is open. This is unacceptable and unusable.
What can I do about it? Is Zuckerberg mining Bitcoin on my setup?
i got my fake alt acc disabled and i sent a face selfie for verification then my main account got disabled after two days. They have sent a appeal your ID button to my fake alt that got disabled but not to my main account which is very important to me :( . My main 7yrs old account have been ID verified couple years ago even. Please tell me how to get my main account back. I even have a ID card but they won't offer me a chance to appeal it. Verify your ID option is only showing to email of my fake alt. Which i don't care i lost or not.
I made the mistake of visiting a client's Facebook page numerous times under the assumption it was anonymous as it says everywhere online. I may have clicked on a photo once. Now I find I'm blocked and am so embarrassed. Would I have appeared in their suggested friends list?
So, while watching the reels? i think is what the videos are calls, along the bottom are ads. Lately, I've been getting ads for dating horny women, with photos of their tops off and spread eagle for the world to see, and I click report, choose nudity or sexual content, and a few days later Facebook replies saying they looks at the account and nothing was wrong so no action taken.
WTF?
As the title says. Using Samsung Galaxy s21 with everything up to date. Trying to create a poll and no mater what you do, you can not edit the poll in any way as the "done" button is always grayed out. Polls are permited in the group and work fine on desktop, but because we can't put pictures in polls on desktop, I have to use mobile. And it seems I can't do anything with polls on mobile. Any ideas?
Hello, i wanted to ask if anybody can help i get suspended acc for no reason and im not alone in this. I would be grateful for any support.
When I try to read page messages or schedule a post, this pops up.
Ever since the move to Meta Business Suite all of my pages just broke. I cannot check messages, I cannot schedule, and I cannot even advertise as it decided to pre-emtively ban me from advertising until I verify my identity. But I cannot verify my identity, as, well, "this content isn't available right now"
Every guide I follow shows a "Meta Business Suite" option in the left corner in the menu, but for NONE of my pages it shows up. I am the creator and head admin of all of my pages. None of my mods can see it either. If I type in the link of Meta Business Suite I can check the settings, but essential stuff like panning isn't possible as, well, "this content isn't available right now".
My pages aren't banned. I can post manually and it actually reaches people. But I just want to schedule my posts like I used to do. Or read my messages, like, at all. I genuinely dislike Meta for not being able to contact them at all and get any of this sorted. I feel like I'm going mad. I removed my cookies before and I tried on mobile, but to no avail.
Anyway, how can I fix this broken mess? Did anyone figure this out?
Theres no Meta Business Suite option, even though it should be here.
When you search up my name this Facebook account I lost all access to and I made when I was small kid is the first thing that pops up and it’s really cringe. I tried doing the imposter link with my ID but Facebook keeps emailing that the account doesn’t violate any rules. Anyone know what to do in this situation? Thanks
I’m really embarrassed to stuff i post to my facebook and instagram accounts i wanna delete it but i forgot my pass and my email password and my old phone number i tried reporting it so many times nothing works please help me!😭
Basically title. It worked fine until a couple months ago, but now even when i know that my friends invited me to some events, it wont show up on my events feed, i dont get notifications about it. I checked the settings and everything seems to be in order, but its still doesnt work. Any help is appreciated!
My Facebook got hacked. The hacker changed my password but didn’t delete my email or phone number. They just added their own email and their Instagram account. I am able to reset my password and get in before I am kicked off pretty instantly. I cannot delete their email without the password to their Instagram. Any advice on how to get their instagram and email off so I can take my account back over?
