mikep56 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Hi All,I just set up Facebook on my nephew's PC running Windows XP Pro SP3. When he runs Facebook the left hand side has a gray bar with icons for Facebook, newsfeed, messages, events, etc. On mine the left hand side is white with icons and words for newsfeed, messages, events, etc. I tried both Firefox and Chrome browsers, but I cannot find a setting for this. I also changed screen resolutions hoping to fit it on the screen, but this didn't fix it either.Any ideas would be helpful. I have attached a jpg of the screen capture.Thanks for your time.Regards,Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submix8c Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 "How does it work" -http://www.facebook.com/help/484698331587524Also do search on "sidebar" in that link.Apparently, mine doesn't show because I use 800x600.This refers to removing the "chat" sidebar -https://www.facebook.com/RemoveNewChatSidebarSomething specifically in reference to FireFox -http://mozilla.6506.n7.nabble.com/Facebook-for-Firefox-update-td45616.htmlYou have a NEW version of Firefox? Apparently, FF "teamed" with FB to give some of this junk to you.Google thisfacebook sidebar remove firefoxThank you, Facebook (NOT)!Since mine doesn't "show", I have no clue.

submix8c Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Hmmm... did test and changed Display to 1024x768. Still no "sidebar" using FF12. Links indicate collaboration NewFF<->FB. Try "Downgrading" FF and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
