The “Title” says it all. It’s not possible to remove or delete Timeline in anyway. None of the solutions which are currently available in the Internet works. In reality, Facebook came up with this new concept to collect as much information as possible about a person and present it to others in a systematic format. Yes, it presents in systematic format by dividing the content by days, months and years. But most people did not liked this new design as much Facebook might have thought. In fact most of the people who activated the Timeline profile hated it from the day one. Of Course there are equal or little less number of people who liked it as well.
We do not have exact numbers but based on the number of people who are trying to get rid of Timeline, it proves that majority of people don’t like it. The next question is how to get the old profile layout. Like we said earlier it is not possible to get the old profile back. Here are answers for all your questions about removing Timeline issue:
Few people were able to get it back but why not me?
You might be wondering how few people were able to get the old profile back using the method we have written. Yes, that method worked when Facebook Timeline was in beta but once Facebook made it public it stopped working. Its not our fault or Facebook fault.
Let me tell you the background about it. Facebook announced Timeline in September in f8 conference and released beta version of the same. People who develops applications using Facebook Developer platform are automatically prompted to upgrade their profile to beta version of Timeline. All the REAL developers who were interested enabled the new feature when it prompted them to upgrade. Idea behind this is to let developers develop applications for Timeline by the time it goes public. But many general Facebook users wanted to try the new feature before it roles out for the public. Many users got the Timeline enabled for their account by following the steps we have written. Steps basically lets you become Facebook Developer in order to get the Timeline.
Based on the feedback we received from some our readers we have written another post which explains “how to remove Facebook Timeline“. These steps lets you make you non Facebook Developer. Once you become general user(non developer) Facebook automatically removes the Timeline from your profile. But eventually Facebook made the Timeline feature public, which means anyone can enable it. While making it available for public they have forcefully enabled it for all the users who have already tried and removed the Timeline.
So the takeaway is the method that worked for few people is only when the Timeline was in beta.
There are few other methods available in other sites, do they work?
No, those methods also don’t work either. Looks like they works but not really. You will see old version of your Facebook profile on your browser but all of your friends see Timeline version of profile. Due to some technical reasons Facebook Timeline works only on the latest versions of all browsers. The tricks that are available in other sites basically mimics the older versions of your browser. This lets Facebook to show older version of your profile. Remember, what ever you do in your browser is your local so all your friends still see Timeline version of your profile.
Important thing is, it is much more dangerous for you as you see older version of Facebook profile and you are not aware how it appears for your friends. You may end up showing the information that you don’t want to show on your Timeline without your knowledge. So DO NOT use such methods.
Not only browser tricks and also there are other Facebook pages which asks you to follow few steps to get old profiles. For your security reasons we are not providing those links but if you come across any of those weird steps, keep yourself completely away from those.
Deleting Facebook account and re-creating it helps?
Yes, it does helps for now as currently Facebook timeline is opt-in basis. So you just need to keep yourself away from clicking get timeline button on timeline official page. But its of no use once Facebook makes it 100% live. Very soon Facebook makes it mandatory and everyone by default will be upgraded to timeline.
Do you really want to spend so much time to download all your Facebook data and create new account then invite all your friends. And you know this lasts only for few weeks. I can say, Keep yourself away from doing this.
So what’s next,
As of now there is no 100% solution to remove or make timeline optional. Until we hear anything from Facebook on this you have to bear it or look for alternatives like moving to other social networks.
Based on the amount of development and transitioning involved in the timeline upgrade, we can clearly understand there is no go back on the timeline by Facebook. So its you who have to decide whats next.
Possible steps you can take:
- Stick with Timeline and modify the Timeline like the way you want it by altering the settings as much as possible.
- Delete or deactivate your Facebook account and move to other social networks.
- Just leave it as it is and move on by avoiding adding so much information to your Timeline if privacy is your main concern.
Folks, let us know if you come across any solutions for this problem and share your thoughts on the entire episode.

How To Remove Timeline ?
I hate it.
I HATE TIMELINE!!! Next step: removing facebook page!!!
I REALLY HATE TIMELINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLS CHANGE BACK TO OLD ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The layout is very unsettling. The division in columns makes it really annoying to scan through the posts. We can’t look to the left and the right at the same time. Please at least provide the option of not having to use the timeline.What the hell was the layout designer intending?… Lets use some common sense here.
couldnt agree with you more! fb designer lacks of commonsense and wants to torture us with his newwwww timeline .. think is so cool? but fact is rubbish! and forcing us to switch to timeline upon waking up in the morning? what is more worse can it be than this? omgg! i hate timeline! fb better wake up before it is losing more users!

i want to get rid of timeline. i thought it was just on trial and i can readily get the old format…… alas…… once you get it …….. it is yours forever…….
I might delete my facebook account. That’s how much i hate timeline.
i hate this time line
Is it at all possible to get back your old profile setting, no offense to the facebook dude that created this, but its really crap
I actually hope that someone at FB gets to read these comments so that they can actually see how much people hate the new Timeline version
I even checked reviews on other sites and its hated there too, please do something about this.
The easiest solution will be to allow users to still keep the old format \/version of there profile setting, and allow the few maybe 2 in like a billion people to add the new timeline version.
I really do not think that this idea has been thought thru enuf, its actually being forced upon users.
yaaa
facebook does not care if anyone likes or does not like timeline. It is designed to deliver targeted advertising for profit.
TIMELINE is shit, please go remove TIMELINE
I don’t like the new time line and having trouble deleting it. Can you delete it for me .I want my old profile back please thanks. Jerolyn.
Timeline might be the slow death of Facebook just like MySpace. The reason why people like Facebook is because it has been very simple to use. With all the constant changes and now this Timeline it’s becoming more and more of a pain.

Just please give us the option. I don’t want to deal with the tricks.
I do not like this new time line and frankly think it is wrong to change without a fb vote to see who does it seems no one does change it back or many of your fb people will leave fb replaced MySpace you are not indispensable, remember there is another college kid getting the new information like you did!!!
If facebook will not remove the timeline, i will delete my account and move to another social networking stie! YOU SHOULD GIVE US AN OPTION, DON’T FORCE US TO ANYTHING WE DONT WANT!

I dont like the cover album to be viewed by all(public) and have the ability to comment on it. Comments in cover album should Only be accessible to friends.
We like the old set up back. We dont like timeline and users shld be an option if we want to use it or not.
Useless article, didn’t have any useful information. Rehashing old and impractical tidbits from the Internet does not an article make.
Also, this site needs a good editor. I could barely understand a single sentence due to the grammatical errors.
I hate Timeline. I really hope everyone gets sick of it and a new social site comes along and everyone abandons it. Screw you Zuckerberg. If you don’t care about the people want then you’re too powerful and need to be humbled.
me to i hate timeline

plss go to back old one

i hate timelinle..e..! i need my old profile back..! as soon as possible..! plz plz plz
If you wanna get rid of the Timeline; The trick is to access Facebook on older versions of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer Web browser. Since Facebook is phasing out support for older browsers, it has not made Timeline available on Internet Explorer 7 and Internet Explorer 6.
