How to bookmark your account.
Put your Facebook Homepage on the 'Favorites' icon on your computer so that this login problem will disappear.
Step 1
- Log in to your account by entering your email address and your password. But before you click 'Login' it is very important that you tick the box that says ' keep me logged in'.
- This can be found directly under the box where you have to enter your e mail address. You will automatically be brought to the wall.
- Go to your own account by pressing Profile. This can be found on the top right of the page, next to the Home button. Now you are on your own page.
Step 2.
- Go to the very left of your internet page. You will see the word Favorites. Press this once. A drop down menu will appear.
- The very first option is ‘Add to Favorites.’ When you press this word a box will appear in the middle of your computer screen entitled ‘Add a Favorite.’
- You also get the choice of changing the name of the bookmark if you wish by retyping in the box that has the blue shaded text.
- When you have chosen the options and are ready to save the Facebook site to your ‘Favorites’ then you just have to press the ‘Add’ button.
- You are done. You have added your Facebook Homepage to your favorites
The next time you want to login to your Facebook account there will be no more problems.
Step 3.
- Go to the Favorites on the top left of your computer screen and press. A drop down menu will appear. You will see Facebook there.

Interview in 2009 with 25 year old founder of FaceBook on 60 Minutes
Photo. Founder of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg
The birth of Facebook
Mark Zuckerberg was a 20 year old Harvard University student in 2004 when he created and launched facebook as The Facebook.com.
It was initially only for Harvard students to connect with one another. Due to its rapid popularity he extended this to other colleges in Boston and then to Colleges in the whole of America.
In 2006 Facebook,com was launched and available to anyone in the world who was 13 years old and over and had a valid email address.
Mark Zuckerberg is one of the youngest Billionaire in the world. His estimated worth is over $4 billion in 2010.
The company has just been floated on the stock exchange in May 2012 so now he is worth billions more,
In a report done by the New York Times in 2010 it was stated that the USA, the United Kingdom and Indonesia are the three countries with the most Facebook users.
Facebook Login confusion on Google
Last year the site 'ReadWriteWeb’ wrote an article entitled Facebook Login. The article got ranked on the news feed on the Google Search for Facebook login.
Thousands of people assumed it was the login page for their accounts. When they got to the article they still assumed they were where they should be to login.
The comments were hilarious as people were getting frustrated with not being able to access their accounts through this link. The writers of the article had to put up this warning on the article itself.
‘Dear visitors from Google. This site is not Facebook. This is a website called ReadWriteWeb that reports on news about Facebook and other Internet services.’
Facebook Login made easy.
How to remember your password and user Id
Facebook login can be quick and easy every time when you know how to bookmark your account.
One piece of advice.
Only use the Bookmark feature on your computer if you are able to ensure complete privacy of your activities on your own computer.
And NEVER bookmark on a shared work computer!

You are welcome Jaypyramid. Glad to be of help with your Facebook login lol
Thanks for the time-saving tip, viking - appreciate your taking the time to help me save my time.
You're welcome Drbj. Time is a precious thing, especially for us writers on Hubpages lol
Gday very nice web log very userful thank you for the better.
Hi There, I have a different problem. When I try and login (I forgot my password) I tried providing a alternative email but it refuses stating that another facebook page is associated with it and I could change it there. This doesn’t work. What do I do in this case?
Thanks Gregory and Corne for reading and your comments.
Corne: when you forget your password they usually ask you to supply your email that u gave them. I am not sure why they would ask for an alternative email address.
If this is what Facebook is still asking you then you could create another email account. I find Gmail the best, easiest and quickest. I have written an article about Gmail with the link to create your own.
I hope you can get it sorted soon, let me know how you get on
My high school has a group. "once a parker always a parker" Popups occur frequently stating my browser is slow and I must stop using facebook or my hard drive will freeze up and the computer will need repair. Is this a scam or is it real. and if it is real how do I fix it....ridey0868@aol.com
douglas ridey that sounds like a virus to me. Do a virus scan on your computer if you have this installed.
Also have you got the BLOCK POP UPS button turned on! This is installed in most computer systems. You can find that on the Toolbar at the top when you connect to the internet
Iam having problems with email eddresses and passwords
Lynda go to the Facebook Login box. Just under that there is a link that says 'Forgot Password.' Click on it and you will be able to retrieve your password or get another one. Good luck.
I clicked the 'welcome to facebook' message in my inbox by mistake and I am being treated like a new-comer and cannot access my account.Please help.
You should be able to get back to your original Facebook account by logging out and then Log back in again with your password and ID. Good luck
I recently changed e-mail address and ended up creating another account and now cant access my old account with all my friends. changed email from howdon2@juno.com to howdon2@wildblue.net
Donna you should still be able to access your old account. Use the old email and old password to login. Facebook has just allowed you to open a new account and they would not have closed down your original one/ Good luck.
I have a photo on my news feed wall that I can't remove and access the rest of FB.
What do I need to do , the return arrow does not respond, like doesn't respond, nothing!! Can you help ?
Hello Jo. To get back access to your Facebook Account go to the top right hand corner where it says Home. There is an arrow there with a drop down menu. Click this and find the Sign Out button.
When you sign out and then login again the fault should disappear.
If you are unable to access the Home button on your Facebook wall then close it down. Do an internet search by writing 'Facebook Login'. When you click this you can login from here. I hope this solves your problem. Let me know how you get on, good luck.

Heres one who is always forgetting her username and password. I did not realise you could do that. I knew you could add to favorites but did not realise you could do it while your account was open. That is going to make my life so much easier. Thanks Viking.
