How do I set my timeline to maximum privacy on Facebook?

[Carolina]

I want the public (not friends OR friends or friends) to not be able to see anything about me. Only my profile picture, name and cover photo...in other words, as much privacy as I can get. I don't want my photos, friendslist, wallposts, photos, interests, anything to be up for the public to see. Only my friends. How do I do that?

Go to privacy settings and change the settings.You cant hide the cover photos by default they are public anyone can see them/

to hide your Photos Go to the photo Page and Set your Photo Albums To Friends Only For Wall And Friends List Go to Privacy Settings than go to How i Connect and From there you should see the wall and Friend list Setting Set both of those to Friends Only For interests go to your about me section and hit edit under your interests page and it will give you a small box click on it and set it to friends only and that should do it

Facebook often makes minor changes to how user information is displayed — usually slight tweaks that go unnoticed by the general public. Occasionally, Facebook does a huge overhaul on the way the site operates. A recent example of this is the introduction of the Facebook Timeline.

Facebook Timeline became the de facto layout for all Facebook users starting on March 31, 2012. Timeline offers a way to refresh your personal history and create a more customizable, interactive and visually appealing way to display all the big moments of your life. The Timeline is the area previously referred to as the “Wall.” While the format has changed, the concept hasn’t changed a great deal. You still can post to other people’s pages and share links, photos, videos and more. The new element is the Timeline Navigator, a chronological diary of your entire Facebook history, from birth to the present. Privacy settings have also been given a boost: You now have a lot more control over exactly who can see every post, photo, video and link.
