Hi, Brian Ok, you first have to have your Facebook username. This is not the email address you typically use to log into Facebook. You'll have to go to your Facebook account to find it. Once you have it, you put it in the username field of the jabber account this way: usern...@chat.facebook.com and put your user name in place of "username".
Then you put your password in. There's a disclosure triangle for server settings, but in most cases, you won't need to set those up. However, you can try this page for more info: http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/facebook-chat-macosx/ It's a little dated, but the info is still good. :) HtH, Teresa On Feb 27, 2013, at 8:22 PM, Brian Fischler <blindga...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey Teresa, > > I didn't know you could set your Facebook account up in messages? > Would love to do this, but got an error.
