Newbie with Facebook photo problem

[cdvallance]

Hi there. My closest friends who own iPads are in a different country (I am in the UK, they are in Canada). I can't seem to load photos to Facebook from my new I-pad 2. It looks like I am not the only one. I welcome ideas.

Thank you

Hi! Some background into what you're using and/or how you've been trying to go about this would've been helpful...

1. If you're accessing FB through a web browser (ie safari), then you should be having issues as mobile iOS web apps don't usually support file browsing. The solution to this is to go to the App Store and either download the Facebook app (free app developed by Facebook) or to choose one of the many facebook photo uploaders (various developers) and download that. I recommend the Facebook app.
2. If you're already using the Facebook app, you'll need to contact their support to get it fixed as I haven't ever had nor have I heard of issues with uploading photos using this app.
3. If you're already using a facebook photo uploader app, you'll need to contact their support to get it fixed or just download a different photo uploader.

Hope my response helps you out, good luck! ^_^
