facebook not working?
« on: 2016-07-15 16:38:32 »
Is facebook support not working anymore?  I can connect with my facebook login...and the TP tree shows my name...with "Albums"  folder underneath it, but when I click on Albums...no thumbnails are displayed and no lower folders for each album either.

What is the secret to accessing facebook photos?  I wish to edit a facebook photo in place without losing the comments that have already been added there.

It doesn't work well for me either, but I've always blamed that on my stubborn use of XP :)

I really doubt if Facebook allows in-place editing of images.. Just think of what could happen if someone has posted a funny cartoon that goes madly viral and then he replaces it with some type of banned content. I've never tried it back when Facebook support did work, but again I really doubt that you can overwrite an image file on the FB server.

I thought the whole point of the TP facebook feature is that we can edit the photos in place, regardless of what facebook does not allow through their application.  I agree, I can see why they wouldn't generally want that, but on the other hand, if I want to upload a higher resolution version of the same photo or correct the contrast or something....I am currently unable to do it..  I was hoping TP could still do it.  As of now, I can't see that it works AT ALL with facebook as I can't see the thumbnails or anything.  I remember when I tried this feature a few years ago it worked.  This is the first time I have had a need to use it.
