how do you upgrade to facebook timeline? - Joshua - 11-09-2012 11:48 AM

i know it's available to everyone now but when i go to facebook.com/about/timeline there is no "get now" button. how do i get it?

You search timeline and you'll find the page created by facebook. Go to it and there you can get a timeline

If you already get the timeline when you go to https://www.facebook.com/about/timeline there would be no "get now" button. The get now button will be visible to you when you didnt get the timeline.
And the Get it now button will be in green color.

There is no need for u to get Timeline.
Facebook Timeline is Facebook Profile.
When u r in ur FB, now u can easily edit ur privacy in FB for whatnot. In ur FB profile page, u select edit profile, then . . . .
Suggestion made. Do as u deem fit.

clear your cache and cookies, log back in, and then go here

http://facebook.com/about/timeline

then click the green button at the bottom

you can go here to learn how to set it up

if you dont see the button, try a different browser - if that doesnt work either, that means you just have to wait for it

This guide will show you how to upgrade to the new Facebook timeline:

Many users reported that they still don't have the green button to upgrade to Timeline. Some of them tried different browsers and computers but the button still wasn't there. As members from the same family using the same computer had different results, this can only mean that the upgrade is not yet available for some users.

A good way to go about it is to try once a day until the button appears.

Good luck!

BTW, according to a survey most are disliking the fact the facebook is making this mandatory. a good infographic on this issue at http://infographics.socialnama.com/2012/02/16/Facebook-Timeline-Disliked-by-the-Masses-179132/
