Re: what's the story with Menu Tab for Facebook?
Ahem, thought Friendly was only for the IPad. Can you get it on the app store, otherwise, where can you obtain it? /Krister 31 jul 2012 kl. 16:49 skrev Ed Worrell blindworr...@optimum.net: Hello, I am using Friendly for Facebook.

Hi Ed, is this app in the App store and how much does it cost? Does it have Growl support?

Re: what's the story with Menu Tab for Facebook?
Hello, yes it is in the Mac app store. I think there is a free version with adds, and a paid version without. I think the paid version is $2.99 US. It is the best app that I have found on the Mac for Facebook, I have tried most if not all of them. hth Ed On Aug 1, 2012, at 7:48 AM, Shawn Krasniuk bigbigshawn@gmail.com wrote: Hi Ed, is this app in the App store and how much does it cost?

Re: what's the story with Menu Tab for Facebook?
Hi, I don't want to start a flame war here, but unless i am comitting some user errors i sadly have to disagree with you about Friendly being the best Facebook app, or rather Menutab pro and Friendly can do just about the same thing. They can both show both the mobile and the full facebook site and the appearance is qite similar in both apps. What am i missing that makes Friendly stand out? And btw, do you know what the unlabeled buttons to the left of the html do? /Krister 1 aug 2012 kl. 18:49 skrev Ed Worrell blindworr...@optimum.net: Hello, yes it is in the Mac app store.

Re: what's the story with Menu Tab for Facebook?
On my mac, I use the FB mobile site. you have to configure a few things though in Safari to make it work correctly. Let me outline those things below. Being I'm an avid mac user, and almost never use my windows box anymore, I figured I could chime in here and help you out. 1. First of all, make sure you're running the most up to date version of Safari. Go to your menu bar with vo+M, then open the Apple menu, and proceed by selecting Software Update. 2. Once you know that you are up to date, open up Safari, and hit command+Comma to open the preferences. 3. Next, interact with the toolbar using vo+shift+down arrow, and locate the advanced tab, and vo+space on it, then stop interacting with vo+shift+up arrow. 4. Navigate this screen with vo+right arrow, until you find the checkbox to enable the developer menu in the menu bar. This might sound really weird, but trust me with this. It does work, I promise. If this box isn't checked go ahead and do so with vo+space. 5. Now close your preferences with command+W. 6. Now, hit command+L to get to the address bar, and type in http://m.facebook.com Beware, there is *no* www at the beginning of this URL. 6. Once here, we need to configure one thing to get this to work optymally. Go to your menu bar with vo+m. Once here navigate over to your developer menu. 7. Once in the developer menu, locate the User Agent sub menu, and expand it. 8. Inside User agent, hit the letter F, as in foxtrot. This should land you on Firefox 4.0. I know again this sounds really cock eyed, but trust me, I swear it works. 9. Select Firefox 4.0. This should force the web site to reload. Once done, have a look. You'll now find it looks totally totally accessible like it did on the Windows side of things. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to get that to stick. In other words, each time you load the site, you're going to have to go to the developer menu, user agent, Firefox 4.0 after loading up the web site. Remember, you do this after, not before, the web page is loaded. I hope this helps. If you want to see the resource I found this from, go to http://www.applevis.com and do a search for Facebook. HTH.

Re: what's the story with Menu Tab for Facebook?
Thanks very much for this, Chris. It works well for the most part! Except for links being all .php, and i found you had to choose firefox for windows, and not the mac version. The number was 11.0. Again, I've been wondering how to set this up for awhile, so thanks so much for taking the time to explain it in detail.

what's the story with Menu Tab for Facebook?
Hi all, I thought I saw something about Menu Tab being made accessible, so I downloaded the free version. I used it only briefly, but I was unable to find anything and must say I don't think it is accessible whatsoever. Did I miss something, or download the wrong app? If this won't work, what do people use for facebook access?
