Hi i want to develop an Facebook Connect application on my Website using C#.net which will retrieve all my Friends Birthday List from my Facebook account & post it on my Website. Similar to what www.gifts.com is having. Request anyone to share a Sample Code or any idea for the same.
Take a look at the Facebook c# SDK it should be able to get you going in the right direction. It is available via NuGet if you are using Visual Studio.

Dear Xamarin developers,
I'm new to the Xamarin world and I like Xamarin.Forms.
When a developer find out a new platform (for me Xamarin(.forms)) he/ she wants to let the user login via OAuth (Facebook/ Google/ Twitter).
For Xamarin you have Xamarin.Auth, but I can't get it to work with Facebook or any other provider.
And for Xamarin.Forms there is no library or guide to do this.
So my question is; how do I implement OAuth(2) in Xamarin.Forms to use Facebook as provider?
Thanks in advance,
Theo
I have used Xamarin.Auth to authenticate against Dropbox with OAuth2 following this guide https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/xamarin-forms/web-services/authentication/oauth/.
As the documentation of the API was not sufficient when it came to error handling, I pulled the branch https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Auth/tree/portable-bait-and-switch from Xamarin.Auth at github to be able to debug it. Later I switched back to the nuget version once I understood the main problems.
For Microsoft Authentification, I had to redefine some of the methods to be able to use it.
Hope this helps to get you started.
I'm disliking the facebook documentation of PHP SDK v4 (I've never used previous and starting out). I can't figure out how to get a list of user's of your web app. Can somebody help I'd really appreciate.
Facebook doesn't provide a way to retrieve users who have your application installed. This should be stored and tracked on your end when a new user installs the application.
I'm writing a windows phone app that should allows user to post status updates from within the application. Any link for the API's or help documentation that allows us to connect to facebook ?
Have a look at the Facebook C# SDK here
There is a sample you can look into about how to use the Facebook C# SDK here on GitHub in your Windows Phone App
Here is the starting point of using Facebook API

I have an application with facebook,twitter and linkedin integrating to it.But when i am using twitter and linkedin it is causing some problem.I found some results in stack saying
remove the library files of linkedin sdk and add the source files of it with oAuth files from twiiter sdk then it works ok for linkedin
then I integrate all twitter code then project run ok without error but for twitter login interface it shows "PAGE NOT FOUND"
But then Notice that I have given the same key and secret to both linkedin and twitter after changing them it solved
But can u please suggest how to do this.it is so confusing.thats why i am going for a clear picture.Any help will be greatly appreciated?
Instead of integrating Facebook & Twiter into you application seperately, you can use ShareKit. It supports:
Delicious
Email
Facebook
Google Reader
Instapaper
Pinboard
Read It Later
Tumblr
Twitter
Get the code from GitHub.
I have no idea about LinkedIn.

I woud suggest using the following project, to communicate with the facebook API:
http://facebooktoolkit.codeplex.com/Wikipage
The following page explains how to setup the project in Visual Studio and also shows how to create a Facebook session and retrieve the user info:
