Resetting birthdate

[larrymcj]

When my wife setup her FB account she was paranoid about using her actual birth date so used a bogus one that she can't remember. Now we're on travel and have only my laptop and when she tries to login to her FB account she is challenged with a four-step security process and the second step is "enter your birth date". How can she login to her FB account from my computer?

She can't.

She can't.

Will she be able to login to FB once she gets back to her own computer with FB cookies? If not, then what are her options? It's my understanding she can't create a new account with the same email address, but could she create a new FB account with a different email address and then change it back to her normal email address? Thanks for your help.

She should be able to log in fine once she gets home. If not, she can make a new account with a new E-mail address, but once it's set up, she can not change the address to one that is already used by the other account.

That's not going to make her happy :-( What I'm afraid of is that even getting back to her own computer FB will recognize that she's tried to login a couple times from my computer and failed their "birthday challenge" and make her go through it even from her computer. I sure hope not.

I can setup another email address from our Google Apps account and just have it forwarded back to her regular email and I'll have to write down all her friends looking at them from my account and she'll just have to start all over again. She is overly paranoid about birth dates...I hope this breaks her of that. I told her when she setup the account to just suppress the year.
