[Tutorial] How to Remove All the Connected Apps from Facebook Account with Just One Click

1 Reply

Removing the connected apps from your Facebook may prove to be very annoying and time consuming as there can be dozens of apps and you have to remove each one manually. Well, you don’t have to get annoyed or waste precious time on removing those apps one by one as there is now an Firefox extension which  can do that.

Facebook works with third party apps to integrate their usage in your Facebook account but, these apps use your account information and display them on your profile. Some of them can even post updates to your Facebook wall. This may result in different problems like you may not want to show your activity on your profile etc.

Anything, from games to connected accounts use apps to integrate with your Facebook account. You may want to use the app and then don’t want the app to show the updates/activities on your wall. You can remove any app, any time.

The normal procedure of removing the apps from your Facebook account includes the following steps:

  • Logging to your Facebook account.
  • Going to ‘Account Settings’ and then to ‘Apps’ tab.
  • Removing the apps by clicking the cross sign against each app. Then confirming the removal and again pressing ‘Ok’ on the message that your app has been removed.
  • You have to repeat the same steps for every app.

The shortcut for removing the apps at once(Firefox Browser Required):

  • First of all, install the extension from here and restart Firefox (that’s the extension which would do the repetition process)
  • Now, log-in to your Facebook account.
  • Go to ‘Account Settings’.

  • Open up the apps tab.

 

  • Now, open the iMacros app by going to the navigation bar and pressing the iMacros button.It should be alongside the forward/back button on the left side.

 

  • The iMacros sidebar would open.
  • Select the ‘Record” tab from iMacros tab’s.
  • You need to be quick in this setup. Press the ‘Record’ button on iMacros and then start the removing process by just clicking the cross button against each app and then confirming it and then pressing ‘ok’ (Do the removal process only once to avoid confusion).
  • Stop the ‘iMacros’ recording by pressing the ‘Stop’ button.
  • Your command have been recorded, you just need to play the command again.
  • Go to ‘Play’ tab of ‘iMacros’ and press ‘Play’ and other apps would start removing automatically (well not automatically, iMacros is doing the repetition work).
  • Keep playing it until all the apps are not removed. Don’t navigate to other page or tab, otherwise, the removal process would be stopped.
  • That’s all!

iMacros can be used very widely in Firefox for different purposes.

3 Replies

Getting the old Facebook Profile Page is now easy. Timeline is the new profile which started rolling out recently slowly to all the users. Some users have already got the Timeline while other are still waiting for it.

Facebook, in September announced the new Timeline, a new kind of User Profile Page with many  new features e.g. cover, featured posts and date wise posts for time after the users birth when the Facebook was not even there etc. If you haven’t got the TimeLine, then you can get it before time by going through the tutorial posted by Tech Lineup on how to enable timeline in Facebook.

Now, after getting the timeline and testing it for some days; some people like it while others want to switch to the older Profile Page. But, the sad thing is you cannot switch back to old profile after switching to the new profile. You would get the new timeline eventually, even if you don’t want it. Facebook will change all the profiles at the end to the timeline.

Well, we are pleased to let you know the possible way of getting the old Facebook Profile Page back even if Facebook has switched your profile to timeline.

Firefox users are lucky this time to get an extension for switching the to the old profile page.

Just follow the instruction below to switch to the old profile page and there is a tutorial video embedded at the end showing the same.

Disclaimer: Using this trick to get the old Facebook Profile Page may change the overall style of other websites. We strongly recommend turning that option off while visiting other websites. In case of viewing or other problems, Tech LineUp/ knowledge-news.com won’t be held responsible.

Instructions:

  1. You must first install the extension which is available for download from here
  2. After downloading, installing and restarting the Firefox. Got to ‘Tools’ menu of your Firefox browser (Don’t see the tools menu? See the next step or skip to 6th step).
  3. If you are not seeing the ‘Tools’ menu then click the ‘Firefox’ button on the top left side of your screen.
  4. In the drop down menu go to ‘options’ and in the sub menu click ‘Menu Bar’.
  5. Your ‘Tools’ menu should be visible now along with other menus.
  6. Now, open up the ‘Tools’ and search for ‘Default User Agent’ and open the sub menu
  7. Open up the sub menu of ‘Internet Explorer’ and then select ‘Internet Explorer 7′.
  8. Now, open up your Facebook Profile Page and old style would be back.
  9. Congratulations! Your old Facebook Profile Page is back

Although, the posts box is a bit misaligned but, all other features works perfectly fine and least but last old Profile Page is back.

You can switch back to the original timeline anytime by selecting the default user agent or by disabling that extension.

Chrome users can see the post on how to disable Timeline and get old Facebook Profile back in Chrome.
