I am having the same problem, I added the facebook account. Below it shows that I have 3 pages active but to their right there is a scrollbox titled "Show in Update Panel?" that is totally black and empty. By hovering over (or clicking) on the "active" pages on the left nothing is added to the "Show in Update Panel". My From icons at the top of the window simply show the Facebook icon for the PROFILE and not for any of the "active" pages. I have the latest version (0.38.2) for Windows.

For LinkedIn members, Company Pages are a great way to research companies you’re interested in, follow them to stay updated, see what kind of people work there, and even review the products and services you use.

I think I have the same problem as "Blaire", but it won't let me any pages associated with my personal Facebook account. I am an administrator for 4 accounts, and it won't let me add any. when you say: "Note: You can add multiple Twitter accounts but only one Facebook account. So if you're administering multiple Facebook pages attached to different profiles (or not attached to any), you'll you can only pick one to update from here." What does this mean? How do I know if a page is attached to my personal page, because it doesn't even give me the option to add any pages when I push the "add pages" button. Please help! I need to figure this out for my new internship. Thanks for your time.

Hello! This isn't working for me. I just downloaded the latest TweetDeck and am on a MacBook. It only allows me to add my personal FB page and when I click "Add more accounts" nothing else pops up on Tweet Deck, it keeps me on the one page with my twitter and personal FB account. Any idea how to fix this so I can add my biz FB account too? Thank you

Hi Ahmed.

There's no way to change that at the moment. I wrote about this problem here:

Hi,
I am using it to post to "Twitter + Facebook Page"
@The Facebook Page , it sends correctly the "status"
When I include a "link" it still gets posted as "Status"
and not as a link with excerpt + image

Any clue how to solve that?

Hi Jerry.

Sorry for the delay in replying. Have you managed to solve this problem yet? Are both fan pages attached to your personal account? If so, I'm not sure why they wouldn't appear in TweetDeck -- I haven't had that problem myself.

If you still haven't got it working, I would file a support ticket at tweetdeck.com.

I'm running TweetDeck Desktop v.0.34.3.2.

I admin two "fan pages" as well as maintaining my own personal page.

When I created my account, it automatically linked one of the fan pages, but I can NOT get it to link the other even though I follow the directions step by step.

Any suggestions???????

I was having trouble with this too, but then realized I hadn't clicked the button for my fan page right above the status update field in TweekDeck. It's to the right of the "From" field. When I clicked on my Page button and activated it (it changed from grayed out to white), it started to work. Try that.

Hmmm.. not sure about the Mac thing, but I wouldn't think that would make a difference. When you're writing the tweet in TD, you have to make sure you've got your fanpage account "active" at the top of the window by clicking on it. Otherwise, it will update your default Twitter account, but nothing else. Any chance that's the issue?
