I Have By Accident Got Two Seperates Accounts On Facebook

I would very much like to use Facebook. But somehow, I have managed to get two seperates accounts, and I only want one!! Therefore, I haven't been logged in for months... How do I do to merge these two (and the contacts as well) into one account? Please help me with this. I would like to use [email protected] instead of [email protected] Thank you for your help! Best regards Sara Ellsäter

Facebook does not allow you to merge accounts. You need to copy your profile content (photos, notes, etc.) and add it manually to your more active account. Unfortunately, there will be some things you cannot transfer, such as Friends and Wall posts. Once you have moved all information onto a single account, you may deactivate your old account from the Settings tab of the Account page. Afterward, you can add email addresses and networks to your new account from the Account page.
