Contact FB pics not showing up in address book?

[ladennis]

I am having a problem getting my FB friends' pics to show up next to their name in my contacts. All that is there is the blue and white silhouette thingy. I have synced my FB contacts, installed FB for Android, uninstalled and reinstalled it, taken the battery out, registered phone with Facebook. I have had Droid phones before and when I synced they all just showed up. What am I doing wrong? Please help me!!!

Have you hit the "get friends" option in the menu within contacts? Try that. It may take a few hours or even a day to complete the sync of the pictures

I am having a problem even getting the contacts to sync at all. I went to Settings -> Accounts & sync -> Manage accounts -> Facebook -> sync contacts.

No facebook contacts showing up in Contact list

same problem here facebook will not sync

I finally got it to work by holding down a contact until the menu came up, hitting link contact and at the top of that is 'Get Friends', click that. It should say Facebook and then you can just go through and check all the people you want added to your contact list. Then it duplicated the contacts in your contact list so you have to go back through and individually link them through the same process. Hope this is helpful. If not reply and I will try to help more.

Thanks, MissCShort, I'm trying to help my sister with this same problem and it's frustrating both of us! If there is a quicker way to do this that'd be great, she's a college girl with A LOT of contacts so doing this one by one will be ridiculous!
