Hello,
I can't get my Facebook account to open. It says I need to confirm identity. How do I do that? Last time I just deleted the account and started over but that is getting old... not only do I not want to loose everything but friending everyone for the third time is not optimum.

Deleted the app and started over... maybe it's still set up somewhere.

You account was not deleted. Here is how to delete a Facebook account:

That's why Facebook wants to know who you are. Facebook allows one account per person.

You must find your original account not create another or both will get disabled.
