Hello Philwild,

It's not a universal issue. I just uploaded to FaceBook successfully through PhD9.

Have you tried completely signing out of FaceBook (in your browser) before attempting the PhD upload?

The steps should be:

1. Select photo


2. Share > Facebook


3. Select FB account - sign in (this authorises CL to access your FB account)


4. Fill in album & description details


5. Click Upload


6. Progress bar in top right corner shows uploading


7. Arrow icon on thumbnail indicates success

Are you saying you're not getting beyong step 2?

I'll try what you suggest.

I can't even get step 2 to happen, click on share to Facebook and nothing happens.

Same Damn issue about Facebook. The same thing also happened with PD 7, PD 8, and now PD 9. getting tired of this crap. no more upgrades until this is fixed. after 4 years of buying this software i will be considering Photoshop. This is terrible. any help with this issue will be well received. Windows 9, with VPN Nord and norton security installed.

Did you try to export from PhD and then upload to facebook the "old fashioned way"? I don't have facebook, so I don't know, if sharing is the only way to get pictures to facebook.
Don't forget, that here are just volunteers from the community. We are not Cyberlink. So the threat not to use PhD any longer does not care anybody. So if you want, use Photoshop. But be warned: Photoshop does not have a "share to facebook" button either. And it is a completely different program. There are maybe cheaper solutions. Have a look at Affinity Photo. It is similar to Photoshop for under 100 Euros. If you want a program similar to PhD, have a look at Lightroom. It is mainly for developing RAW pictures, but is can also handle other formats. PhD and Lightroom are similar, but PhD has some more features like layers, which Lightroom does not have.
Good luck

P.S. No kidding, but have you tried without Norton Security? I don't know Norton 2018, but former Norton was known as a "trouble maker" Win 10 64, i7-4790k, 32GB Ram, 256 GB SSD, SATA 2TB, SATA 4TB, NVidia GTX1080 8GB, LG 34" 4K Wide, AOC 24" 1080

Hello Jack H.,

Welcome to the PhotoDirector forum

Obviously, this issue comes up from time to time. Unfortunately, I'm unable to replicate it here following the steps outlined above.

Please check that you've installed the most recent 2504 patch update (I know that sounds a bit thin if you've experienced the same issue over a number of versions).

Have you tried signing out of Facebook completely, prior to upload?

Could you please describe exactly what happens at each step? At which steps does it fail?

Interesting, I do post photos onto FB but I've never even considered using PD 5/6/7/8/9 to post, just so used to doing it the old fashioned way.
Must give it a try some day

Cheers

Wow, just tried it and it works brilliantly. A lot faster than the old fashioned way too

I don't know what I did that is different from the other posters who couldn't manage to post to FB.
I do have several accounts on FB, so far I've only posted onto my main FB a/c.
What I owuld suggest is that you check your FB settings as these would be the main areas for stopping any postings from a 3rd party.
FB and most Social media platforms are undergoing a stringent security upgrades ( about time too ) I'm not familiar with all social media aspects BUT If you have all your settings on PRIVATE and not public ,then that may impead your uploading capabilities. There could be a video on how to do this with Cyberlink.

Happy posting guys
