How do I delete a “comment” I made on my own album in facebook?
This is so simple that I’m a bit surprised you emailed this question to me, actually. While Facebook has a rather Byzantine organizational structure and it’s common for people being unable to figure out where things are, it’s usually pretty easy to figure out how to do things…
So let’s dig into it and see what we can find.
But really, it’s easy. Check it out: here’s a comment I’ve left on my own photo album on Facebook:
The key is the little grey “x” that shows up just to the right of the comment. Now, to be fair, sometimes it’s not displayed until you move your mouse over that general area, but a little experimentation should reveal what you seek!
Click on it and:
You do want to delete the comment, indicate so and….
No comment!
I hope that helps you with Facebook. I’d also like to let you know that I have quite a bit of Facebook help here on the site and that I also have an Ask Dave Taylor Facebook Fan Page that I invite you to join.
Sweet blog! I found it while surfing around on Yahoo News.
Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
Thank you
If I delete comments on photos of a person who I have now unfriended, do they get a notification if it is on their old picture and consiting of a comment posted by myself?
i have some questions….if i delete my comment on my friends post in my wall it is going to erase in my friends wall or not?
Thanks Dave!
So sorry, if I sounded rather “STUPID” to you, but it did not work. None of the icons or devices for deleting showed up until I decided to change browsers. Nothing worked on Safari, but when I changed to Firefox it worked!!! So, you might keep this in mind ,as a suggestion, if this question comes up again and you have another “stupid sounding” person!
Thanks Dave!

A friend posted a photo. I commented on the photo. Now the photo is posted in my feed and all my friends see it. It is kind of stupid and i want it to go away so my friends won’t see it anymore. When I opened it again to delete my comment, there are over 6000 comments, it lists them 150 at a time, I can’t find mine to delete it. Is there any way to get rid of it?

How can I remove a ‘like’ by an unfriended person (deleted facebook friend) on facebook? I see a couple of others have posted the same question here but don’t see an answer to this. I’ve deleted their comment, easily enough, but don’t see a way to delete the like from them, which others are able to see that person’s info/name. I have my friends list set to private and don’t want my friends seen by other friends, as I do business and do not like competitors stealing friends as has happened in the past.
Ashleigh, I don’t think you can remove comments from the Facebook mobile app. I don’t have a Droid, but I know it’s not possible in the iPhone version…

re: removing comments fr FB
This is a great answer – but my problem is the primary comment – not the secondary one. there is no little x on the primary. HOW do i remove? i was helping my boss with facebook and i wished him a happy birthday – from HIMSELF!!! he is embarrassed – i need to fix it asap! 🙂
someone posted something on another persons wall. I then commented on this posting. The next day I went back to the posting and my comment was gone? Who could of removed it? Is there anyway I can find out who removed it. Also on my profile page it will say tha I commented on someones status, etc. It does not say that today. How could it of been posted yesterday but is missing all together today?
ok so me and my friend were commenting on a photo she tagged me in and now all of her friends can see our conversation of comments that we had i want to know if theres a way to block all her friends from seeing or if i can delete the comments on the photo? the comments were made on my pic from my profile not on her profile so why can all her friends see the conversation as well?

After i deleted one of my comments, i am unable to post another comment on that “post” or activity … why is that? I just wanted to fix some of the words i’ve written
Robert, as far as I can tell, there is no way to delete multiple comments at the same time. One reason I’m not a huge MySpace fan any more…
Dave, the original question was. “how do you delete MULTIPLE comments at one time” It is quite tedious deleting them ONE at a time, so, whats the answer?
How do I remove “like” off of my photo albums?
Every time I ‘add more photos’ to an album and publish them they are automatically published with allll of the previous “Like” indications from other photos from the album as well
how do I delete multiple comments at a time on my profile on facebook? I know how to do it one at a time but really
Ok, I got on Facebook yesterday after prodding from my kids. I have many friends that have filled up LOTS of space and I want to delete their comments to clean up the page. I got your advice to click on the gray ‘x’. I don’t have a gray ‘x’ & if I roll my mouse over the right-hand corner, I get “HIDE”. I do not get the option to delete. Now what?
hi!
when you delete your comments on other people’s photos, does it send them an e-mail to notify them?
Hello David:
I don’t want all the write up from my friends on my facebook for months. How do I delete the message after I read it from my friends.
Can i delete a photo comment left on a persons facebook who i have now deleted?
