I have opened the business page, but how do i actually open a personal profile? I have tried to sign up for a new profile , but get the message that I have already an account and to log in, so I log in and come to my page. Can I start my profile from my page? Thanks for your help. (on my website is a link to my facebook page, maybe have a look, as I might use wrong terms to explain) Hi Charlene,

You don't have two accounts. You have an account (your profile) and your business has an account. When your business is small, it's easy to be confused about this. But imagine for a minute that you are running a restaurant, or a chain of dry cleaners. That makes the distinction between you and and the business very clear. I’m glad to be helpful, Ronnie.

Anyway thanks again your site is a real good source of information. Hi Charlene,

Your first account is a business account that only accesses your business page. Your second account will be a personal account. Set yourself up as an administrator on your business page, and then you can use your personal account to access both your profile and your business page. You won't need to log in and log out to switch between the two. Take advantage of the Use Facebook As Page feature to switch back and forth. You can also convert your business account to a personal account. There is an option when you log in to create a profile. That would change your business account into a personal account that is linked to both your business page and a new personal profile. You can open a second account.

FB documentation is horrible, so you are a blessing. I've created a business page (and later created a personal profile). My problem is that I'm trying to create a FB app that will upload photos to my business page (I want to automate the periodic rotation of photo albums so that I do not have to upload photos manually). In the app, I can read album/photo data from my business page, but I can neither create albums nor upload photos there. On the other hand, I can create albums and upload photos to the Photos -> My Uploads tab of my personal profile. But that does me no good. How can I load photos through an app to my business page? I must be missing something very fundamental, but I've tried every coding example I can find on the Internet, and nothing works. Thank you very much. Hi,

When you visit the page, you should see the <strong>Edit </strong>button in the upper right corner. A quick way to review the pages where you are the admin is under <strong>Account </strong>(top right), <strong>Use Facebook as Page</strong>, and a list of the pages where you are admin appears. Go back to the page owner and have them review their page admins. It's easy. Have them <strong>Use Facebook As Page</strong>. In the upper right is a box with a list of the page admins. If they have several, they may need to click <strong>See All</strong>. If you need any further help, just let me know.
