Back Up Your Facebook Account

There comes a time when you realize that your Facebook account holds many things that are important to you. There are pictures, friends list and private messages that you really would not want to lose. I personally needed to find old inbox notes and wall posts so that I could start legal proceeding against a woman who had been stalking me for over a year. The nice thing about this system of back-up is that even if you have blocked someone or they have blocked you the information is still there.

This is the easy and Facebook approved way of saving all of the information that has become your "virtual" life.

1) Under the menu under "Account" Click "Account Settings"

2) Click "Learn More" beside "Download Your Information"

3) You will then be asked to verify your password

4) After verifing your password it will give you the opportunity to download your Facebook account.

It may take awhile for Facebook to format your information and you may have to check back a little later. This does give you access to your old pictures, posts and notes and most everything.
