I have a desktop App dealing with images.  A couple of years ago we built a C# executable that makes JSON calls in order to transact with FaceBook so that users of my desktop App could upload images directly to their Facebook timeline.  All good.  But now, Facebook is changing their scheme, and they are deprecating one "permission" that we needed in order to do this.  Now Facebook says the new scheme should use a "shared dialog" but they seem only to offer support for Android, iOS, and web-servers.  My question is: how can a windows desktop App do the new scheme? Is it possible?

We have a user that created accounts in Tweeter, Facebook, Instagram. Linkedln and Pinterest some time ago but never used it.  Just this week the user wants to start but noticed that wants to change each tags (or reference name like @sample_name) per apps, and the email used to create it.  

What's the best way to go about it?

Facebook is scaring monster. Truly scary. Time to sign off.

Unless you are a robot - and Facebook knows that already - the Facebook monster it truly scary.
It is some power of ten worse than you had ever imagined. If in doubt, read the 200+ pages - from FB:

Facebook is tracking you in ways you never knew
Facebook is tracking you in ways you never knew — here's the crazy amount of data it sucks upFacebook has revealed all the creepy ways it records information on users. Some were unsurprising, such as the time people spend on Facebook or if they buy things via the site, but others shed light on the sheer scale of Facebook's monitoring machine.

Stop being a scare monger, it the sign of the times and has been for years.  
It's no different than when we walk out into the streets and our every move is monitored by CCTV or the devices we use that have an electronic gadget or the card we use to pay for our transactions. Everything we do is accountable. Even the cash note has a barcode that registers to a computer database. Our new smart TV also watches us.
Same rules applies just dont attract attention to yourself keep a low profile and use common sense..
If you look at the world through a magnifying glass you'd be terrified to see what is in our water and food at an microscopic level.
But we have lived with this for a long time whether we knew about it all or not and so far seemed to have survived and enjoyed our lifestyles so far.

Best settings for iMovie Export to MP4

I will use a video on Facebook as a sponsored advertisement but have no idea of the best resolution to use.

I have lots of exporting of various clips to make and editing yet to come. So, large file size will be painful. Especially is was for nothing.

Given the background is a distant harbor, I think the best resolution possible, is best. But what should be my target for Facebook ads?

Thanks

Facebook Ad Question: Can I mention a politician by name?

I have not yet found the lost list of rules when placing a  Facebook Ad. Got that list?

Anyway, I hope I can have some fun on one ad where I compare a particular politician to a "moon bat."

Is that allowed? Or is it a violation?

And if it's not a violation, might it still get blocked if it upsets the person who grades the ads?

Thanks

As of yesterday, the red "badge" with a number that indicates new notifications in Facebook doesn't appear unless I refresh the page. This happens on both my home (Mac) computer and work (pc) one.

Another FB glitch that will or won't fix itself? Or ia there something I can do to resolve the problem?

Thanks.

Hi, this is the code I have for my facebook pixel. Everything is working except the content_ids. I think I must be making a basic javascript error.

  <!-- BEGIN standard event code -->
  fbq('track', 'Purchase', {value: '<MIM>total</MIM>', currency: 'USD', content_type: 'product', content_ids: ['<MIM>sku</MIM>']});
  fbq('track', 'Order Number', {value: '<MIM>order_id</MIM>'});
  <!-- END standard event code -->

I've attached the whole pixel with our account xxxed out.

I tried doing an animation of an image in Premier Pro to put on Facebook - I did it the exact dimension Facebook said, but when I tried to upload it, it got rejected because the aspect ratio was wrong (it needed to be between 1:1 and 2:1 apparently). I googled about this and it seems you need to set up a sequence and set the pixel aspect ratio but when I did the 2:1 setting the video had black borders. How do I create a Facebook video (from an image) in Premier Pro? What settings do I use? Note there only seems to be a fixed set of aspect ratios to choose from and most of them were not between 1:1 and 2:1.

Posting a website URL in Facebook.

I am trying to post a URL from a website that I created in FaceBook and have done this many times with other sites. The link shows with a photo that relates to the story I am posting. When I post something from my OWN website, the link shows up with the logo that is at the top of the page. I would like the photo to show up that is positioned lower on that page.

Hi
I got this mail, out of nowhere, supposedly from LinkedIn, with a job offer on Facebook

It can't be for real, can it?
Can businesses comb the deserts of linked-in and send offers?
I won't respond, I'm not interested, also
What clues are there that it is fake?

Subject: Opportunity with Amazon Teams (in Bay Area, Seattle or Boulder!)

 
Hi ------Snip-----, 

*****Your time is very valuable. If you are not interested, feel free to decline using the "Not Interested" Quick Reply below:

My name is Sarah and I am a technical recruiter partnering with teams at Amazon to find talented software engineers and managers. After taking a look at your profile, I think you could be a wonderful fit for Amazon teams in Seattle, Bay Area or Boulder.

If you are interested either now or in the future, I would like to set up a time to discuss the positions to see if they align with your interests and career goals. I focus on mid- to senior-level software development and leadership direct hire positions involving architecture and high-level design, and developing some of the most important customer-facing features core to Amazon's business. 

I look forward to hearing from you soon!

What would happen if I clicked their button?

How do I turn off Facebook notification 'You have a new friend suggestion" ?

I checked their support site.  Either they don't want me to know how to turn that off or there is no way to turn it off?

I went to Settings > Notifications.  Didn't find anything about that.  I tried hovering my cursor over the specific notification but my only option is to hide the notification.  I want to stop these notifications from happening.  There must have been a Facebook update or enhancement with this feature because I didn't used to get them in the past, but in the past few weeks I've been getting them way too often.

I guess if there is no way to turn it off I'll have to try disabling all notifications.

What are your thoughts, ideas, solutions?  Thank you.

If I post a link to my Wordpress blog post on Facebook it will pick up a photo tagged with the og:image tag. I would like to know what happens if I change the tag to a different photo (using Yoast). Will this also change photos on my existing Facebook posts or they will still show the photo that was current at the time of posting?

Hi,
 
 I have a facebook page. Today I asked a non-FB user to post a review on my page for me, but he said he could not because he did not have FB account.
 So the question is should he create a FB account in order to leave a review on my FB page?

Thanks.

I am in the process of syncing our company Facebook via a third party for a press release. I went into my Chrome settings to allow popups for this website so I could connect our Twitter and LinkedIn accounts. However, when I went to connect Facebook, I keep getting a pop-up window with the below error.

Any suggestions on how I can fix this so we can connect our Facebook account as a reference for the press release?

Thanks in advance!
