Refresh of the facebook contact list

Report · Feb 21, 2017

During the first installation you are asked to connect Photoshop Elements Organizer with your facebook contact list. I like this feature as it eliminates the need to create own name tag's. This download or connection seems to a one time thing and i could not find a way to refresh or update the contact list again. Is there any function to refresh the facebook contact list in Photoshop Element Organizer from time to time? As I luckily got more friends over the time I would like to Tag them also on the pictures i shot.

Thank you for any feedback.

Hi,

Facebook friend list doesn't refresh own it's own. But there is a way to download it afresh. Please follow the directions listed below:

1. Logout of facebook from facebook dialog and quit Organizer.

2. WIN: Go to file explorer , type %appdata% in top text bar and hit enter, Now navigate to Adobe\Elements Organizer\15.0\Organizer\OLS (Note: Please select the version folder, 15.0 in my case, as per your Elements version)

MAC: Go to ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Elements Organizer/15.0/Organizer/OLS.

3. Find and delete the file facebook-contactList,xml from this location.

4. Now on launching Organizer, when you would initiate the sharing to Facebook workflow again, you would get a prompt to download friend list as well which would be a fresh one.

I hope this would resolve your query. Get back to me in case of any doubts.

Thanks,

Arshla

In my case, the Facebook friend list does not even appear anymore. I have now deleted the facebook-contactList.xml file, but I can not find a way to Log out from Facebook to be able to log back in again.

Where can I log out from Facebook in the 2018 edition?
