If you can't log in: There are several possible problems. It could be as simple as typing your password with the caps lock key on. Make sure it's off. Or the problem could stem from an outdated browser, or overloaded cache or cookies.

Except for the caps lock key issue, these issues are all addressed at length on this Facebook page.

To try again, you may reset your password here. If all else fails, try using a different browser.

Then for deactivation, look for that link at the bottom of your account page.
