You may be able to get back into your Facebook account by answering a security question, using an alternate email address listed on your account or getting help from friends. Keep in mind that you'll only see these options if you set them up.To see if you have these options:

  1. Go to the Facebook login page and click Forgot your password? or Can't login? in the top right.
  2. Fill out the form to identify your account.
  3. Select I forgot my password on the next page if prompted.
  4. Look at the list of email addresses listed on your account. If you don't have access to any of these, click No longer have access to these?
  5. Follow the instructions provided to answer your security question or get help from friends, if you see these options, or contact your email service provider.
Once you get back into your account you can change your login email address at any time from your account settings. You can also log into Facebook with any email address you've added to your account.

I can't get into my Facebook I am trying to change from an old email & password to a new one and can't remember the old password

Alright! Good question.
My answer would be this:
You must contact facebook. And get their help to reset your password. ( To RESET is the important part in this - remember that. ). I do not know much about facebook and their policies. And how they operate. I actually hate that freaking platform. But I see your problem with pictures and memories! If they can not help? Perhaps you can actually get apple to do it. Otherwise, I'm sure they have a solution of a kind! Contact them and describe your problem. Good luck. C.

How do I get an activation code for my facebook

Hi
If you are being blocked then it is likely that you are not entering the login details that Facebook is expecting, whether they have been satisfactory in the past or not.You could try this, go to the login page here:,
Facebook
just under where you input your password you can click on "forgotten password". This takes you to a page where it says "find my account" where you can enter "Email, Phone, Username or Full Name". Try entering one of these (My email gave the best result for me) and follow through the instructions to reset your password so that you can access your account.
If this does not work there are a number of options here depending upon what you have lost, ie you can't log in, your facebook page has been locked and you can't change it, or it no longer appears to exist. I could go through them all but it has already been done here:
How To Recover Your Facebook Account When You Can No Longer Log In
It details the methods you can try depending upon the exact circumstances.

Facebook login problems

unless you can hack it, or remember it, you won't get your old password back. You can reset it provided you still have access to the email address you have on file with facebook. Simply goto login and look for and click on, "forgot password" (or something like that!) and an email link to reset your password will be sent to you. Open the email and click on that link. Then change your password. Write it down and relogin from each place you use facebook.

Change password facebook

If you can log on to your Facebook account, click the down-pointing triangle in the upper-right, click "Settings," then click the "Edit" to the right of the "Password" line. If you can't log on, click the "Forgot your password?" on the Facebook sign-in page.

How do I reset my password?

Be careful that it's not a phishing attempt, and that the message really is from Facebook. If you're sure it's kosher, my best advice in a case like this--ask a knowledgeable friend, or one who knows a tech-type person, to go through the password reset process with you in person. You can have him (her) look away when you enter your new password. If he's brought a pad or tablet along, try logging on to Facebook with both your iPad and his to make sure the new password works.

Can you help me access my Facebook account on my iPad?

Make sure no one else is logged into the Facebook app, then put in your info and log in. If that doesn't work, you'll need to reset your password through Facebook in a browser.

I downloaded a new version of facebook application, after that i cannot log in to facebook, error code 1 (FBPAPIError) appear.

Are you absolutely sure you're using the correct email address and password? Similar things have happened to me, only to find out it was a wrong or outdated password. If you're positive it's correct, try deleting and reinstalling the Facebook app by going to the home screen and pressing and holding the Facebook icon until the icons start wiggling and an X appears on it, then tapping the X. Next, simply go to the App Store and download Facebook again.

If you have the same problem after trying this, maybe try logging into Facebook from somewhere else. If you can log in from other places but not on the iPad, make sure you can get on other websites such as Google on it, just in case it's a connection issue. I hope this helps :)
