How do I import my contacts from my Facebook to my iphone 4S? - Samantha - 12-11-2012 06:24 AM
I don't have the Sync option on my facebook like everyone else suggesting. Is there another way to transfer them??
....iOS 5 I believe.

No idea sorry.

What version of iOS are you? That would help.

The new version on the Facebook application has become simply a mobile version of Facebook, there is no longer a sync contacts option directly through the application.
So for that reason, First, make sure that you are on IOS 6 firmware
It wouldn't hurt to have the Facebook application installed on your iPhone, it's very similar in style to the desktop Facebook website, very user friendly
Back to the topic:
Go to settings > Facebook (below twitter) > Sign In (full name/username/password)
Under the section [Allow these apps to use your account]
Make sure that contacts is set to ON (blue toggle)
Then select the button [Update all contacts]
You will then have your Facebook contacts available. Note: some will be phone numbers with emails, some contacts will only have email availae. It depends if they provide their number on Facebook.
Good luck and fun syncing!
