Log on.In the upper right where it says account,click on it.A drop down menu will appear.Go to account settings.Near the bottom it says deactivate account.Click on that.I have heard that they ask you up to like 3 times to confirm,just read what it says and click appropriately because they like to word f**k.Also,it may be necessary to delete photos before it lets you deactivate,at least I saw an article on TV about it but Iam not sure if it is required.So if it won't deactivate the way I mentioned,try deleting pictures you posted(if any) and deactivate again.I am seriously considering it myself due to all the same junk.They change something nearly every day.Good luck,Greg
Hi,to get started you first have to log back into Facebook,once your page is showing look to the top right corner.You will see the word (Account) left click that,a new window will open.This new window will have tabs across the top of the page,make sure the tab (Settings) is dark.On this page look to the bottom you will see (Deactivate Account) on the right side bottom you will see (deactivate) Left click that.I've not gone past that but if any thing pops up,it will only be a comfirmation to deactivate the account.Once that is completed if you want to remove the web link in your Favorites,IE8 Open Internet explorer on the left top of the window you will see your Favorites left click,find the web link Facebook.You now need to right click the web link,and select delete a window should open asking if you really want to remove from the list click ok/yes.Thats it your done and out of Facebook.
When Facebook was founded on February 4, 2004, it defined its mission as "Giving people the power to share and make the world more open and connected." With the widespread success of this social networking website today -- more than 500 million regular users as of April 2011 -- it may meet that goal for many. When a Facebook user can no longer access an account, it can be frustrating, but there is typically a reasonable explanation.
Cookies/Cache
Facebook suggests that any user who can't access their account should clear cookies and cache on their computer as a first step. This will help remove old and unneeded files from your computer, and will sometimes help your computer to run faster, as well as allowing access to Facebook again. Once cookies and cache have been cleared, you should type "m.facebook.com" into the address bar on your computer. Avoid using any old bookmarks or links to visit Facebook for this first visit after clearing the cookies and cache.
Password Incorrect
If you attempt to log into your Facebook account with an incorrect password, you will be unable to access your account. Even if you have the correct email address, that is only half of the log-in equation, and the correct password is absolutely necessary to log into the site. If you may have entered the wrong password, enter it again, taking care to get each character correct. Passwords are case sensitive, so all capital and lowercase letters and any symbols must be entered correctly. If you have forgotten your password, you will need to click the "Forgot Your Password" link to recover your account and create a new password.
Account Closed
Facebook reserves the right to close accounts that they have determined are in violation of their terms of service. If Facebook found that your account contained inappropriate content, did not represent a real person, or violated Facebook rules in some way, the account may be closed, leaving you unable to access it. If your account was closed for one of these reasons, your login will fail and you will be provided with a link to Facebook's "Confirm Your Identity" page, where you can read about typical reasons for account closures.
Email Login Incorrect
If you have entered the incorrect email address, you will be unable to log into your Facebook account. The email address that you use to log into Facebook is case sensitive, just as your email address is. If you fail to capitalize a letter or forget to insert an underscore that is part of the email address, login will fail.
If you cannot access your Facebook account due to an incorrect email address, double checking the address for correctness prior to logging in again will resolve the issue.
Compromised Account
If account information such as your email address or password is stolen, your account may be compromised. If, for example, your account information is stolen, the person in possession of your log-in information can access your account and change the password so that you will no longer be able to get to your account. If you think this may have happened, you must access the "Compromised Account" page on Facebook and follow steps to prove your identity and secure your account.
