Photos won't accept my Facebook password

When I try to enable Share in System Preferences Internet Accounts my Facebook password is not recognised. I've signed out and back into Facebook using the same password and ID.

iMac, OS X 10.11

Directly sharing to FaceBook from Photos is no longer supported, even if your version of Photos is still showing it. Newer versions of MacOS X are not showing the option any longer. Your Mac with OS X 10.11 is still showing the accounts for social media, but Apple supports it no longer since Jun 2017.


To work with your FaceBook account, open it in a web browser and use the browser to sign in. Then upload the photos from there.
