Go to gallery on your phone and click on the pic you want to post. Tap the picture and you should see on top of the pic the facebook f appear click on that. That will lead you to "Write Post" the pic will be automatically attached and just post it. At this point you can also write a comment if you want to as well.

You make it sounds so easy, lol. My daughter posts to FB from Instagram all the time & I can't figure that out.

Posting to your own wall is pretty easy, everything is programmed in the phone. All that other stuff, like Instagram and Twitter, I hear you!

My kids do it and I have no idea, it makes me feel soooooo old! Even they can't figure out why the heck I can't do what I want to do so I don't feel so clueless!

Re: Question For Tech Savvy Cellphone Users - HELP!

So you want to post a picture on the temptations Facebook page? To do that you have to create a post from that page. A box will pop up where you start to,type your message. At the bottom of the box, you should see an icon to insert a picture. Click that, scroll through your pictures, and select the one you want. You do the same process if you are replying to a post that is already started on the page. But....did you mention above that you are not a "friend" of that page? I don't think you can start a post on a page you haven't been friend-ed on?

it is easy to post to instagram, google+, twitter, facebook, etc........ especially on your own page or a friends page, but not sure why you cannot tag taras page on the photo and have it go onto her facebook page. i even just tried to do it myself.

she she have an instagram account that you can tag your photo with her name @taratemptations .

But it wont give you access to post from her phone as the OP was requesting just your computer. I tried that as well.

OK, I DID IT!!! I messaged my very Tech smart niece who now resides in California. Why I hadn't thought of her before is beyond me. It does have to be done from the phone.

I had liked Tara's page, but it still wouldn't work. I had to go to my FB page on my phone. From there, I had to go to the search bar and type in TT by Tara. Once that came up, I had to scroll down and find where to post the photo. Once I clicked on "post photo", it brought my gallery which contained the picture I wanted to post,(It actually looks like you're posting on your own FB page) wrote what I wanted to write, hit post, and it worked!

What I had been trying to do was click on the photo on my phone and upload it from there. You have to open up the FB page you want to post your photo on!

Thank you ALL for responding., I really appreciate it! (And maybe I helped on other person out there that was stuck like me??)

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!
