Facebook contacts not up to date

[nathanofseattle]

I noticed that my FB contacts are not up to date when trying to sync to my contacts through the contacts section. I tried refreshing a few times, but it doesn't appear to be picking up all my FB contacts. I've confirmed I am online. Is anyone else seeing this problem?

I never payed that much attention to it before until I read your post. Now after looking, mine is not updating either. Now I am curious to why not.

Well after reading this I went in and looked a bit closer because I thought I had this problem once as well. It turns out that when you click the option to link a contact to FB and associate a FB friend to the contact it then takes them off the list of friends shown when you do the same for the next person. So in other words, if you already have 10 contacts linked to FB on your phone, when you get to that list of FB friends to associate, it will show you only the remaining friends that you haven't already linked so it progressively gets lower as you link more contacts. Maybe that's what you're misinterpreting as not showing all your friends?

I think you're right! That explains all but 1 of my contacts. He's not appearing on my FB friend but he is at friend on FB. I tried deleting his contact info off my phone then attempted to re-add him. Unfortunately, he's not appearing on my FB contact after refreshing. Oh well. It's just one contact. Thanks.

Just manually add the connection per user... Works for me when the software cant seem to understand John Doe on Facebook = John Doe on my phone...
