How to access the user's facebook account? OSX Mountain Lion

I'm using the code from WWDC to access the user's facebook account:

self.accountStore = [[ACAccountStore alloc] init];
ACAccountType *facebookAccountType = [self.accountStore
                                      accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:ACAccountTypeIdentifierFacebook];
[self.accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:facebookAccountType
                             withCompletionHandler:^(BOOL granted, NSError *e) {
                                 if (granted) {
                                     NSArray *accounts = [self.accountStore
                                                          accountsWithAccountType:facebookAccountType];
                                     self.facebookAccount = [accounts lastObject];
                                 } else {
                                     // Fail gracefully...
                                 }
                             }];

but it gives me error on the requestAccessToAccountsWithType:withCompletionHandler:.

Solution

  • Facebook support was only added in 10.8.2. Are you using 10.8.2 yet? If so, what specific error code are you getting? We're not mind-readers.

    If you read the headers as you're supposed to do, you'll see that -requestAccessToAccountsWithType:withCompletionHandler: does not exist on Mac, and is deprecated on iOS. You should be using -requestAccessToAccountsWithType:options:completion:.
