How can I get rid of the timeline on Facebook? - Brooke - 11-09-2012 01:14 PM
I have the timeline on Facebook but it's really annoying and I hate it, is there any way I can get my normal profile back without deleting anything?? X

Nope . The timeline is standard issue now and if you didn't already have it, it is required to download an app that has to do with Facebook ( like words with friends) or websites (like pintrest) . Sorry to disappoint you !(:

Nope, sorry!
Facebook has switched to timeline universally. Therefore, it will be this way for everyone forever, or until the creator of Facebook decides to change it again. It's really not that bad once you get used to it!

DON'T LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE THAT SAY THAT YOU CAN'T REMOVE IT.
If you use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, you CAN.
Check out this website - http://www.techtipsandtricks.tk - Click on 'Computer', and then click on the "remove timeline view from facebook" link, make sure that the browser name in the link corresponds with the browser you use the most.
You're welcome
BTW do not click on the fbpurity link, it is a hack.

Although you cant change back completely to the old style profile, you can view all personal timeline pages in the faster loading and more user friendly, old style profile page format in your own browser via this simple guide:
http://fbpurity.com/remove-timeline
If you check the page, you will see that the solution has received over 15,000 "likes", and hundreds of positive comments on the feedback section, so you can be sure it really does work.
FB Purity is a completely safe website and browser extension, for proof you can check out what top computer security company, Norton, says about it:

There's no way to undo the Timeline upgrade. Although for the moment Facebook did not make a clear statement in any of its official pages about how the upgrade would be deployed, and as a consequence there is a lot of false information going around, experienced users know that Facebook upgrades of this size have never been optional.
Besides, there are clear evidences that indicate that there will be no way to go back to the old Profile. Take a look at the article in the source to see what those evidences are.

Facebook don't yet provide an official option to get Timeline off, still you have a method to revert back to old Facebook from Timeline, read it here and implement: http://techably.com/2012/02/revert-back-to-old-facebook-from-timeline/
Hope you find it useful.
