How to switch back to old facebook version? - john - 11-09-2012 10:17 PM
So I recently switched to the facebook timeline mode, and i absolutely hate it. Is there a way to switch back to the original version of facebook... Thanks

From the rumours that I heard, you can't switch it back. Facebook wants everyone to have the timeline, that's why, maybe.
I absolutely hate the timeline too! You have to agree, it's too messy.

there is no way to get rid of it - everyone is being converted to the timeline - it's the new look for facebook
here's how to set it up

If you hate Facebook TImeline and want it gone from your profile, there is a genuine method to get the old profile pages back. Facebook have deliberately omitted to make Timeline work with Internet Explorer 7. If you view Timeline pages with Internet Explorer 7 (or set your existing browser to pretend its IE7), you will see the old style profile pages instead. If you also want your friends to see your profile in the old style format too, you just need to point them to this solution too.
Theres a guide to setting up your browser to pretend its IE7 and thus disable Facebook Timeline here: http://fbpurity.com/disable-facebook-timeline.htm
