Once you have enabled Facebook Connect in the Setup Wizard, the APM software will display options for customers to upload and/or download photos while placing an order. The Facebook photo download option appears on the media selection screen at the beginning of an order. The Facebook upload option may be ordered two ways within the APM software:
- Select the Facebook Upload button on the Product Selection screen, or
- Opt to order it through the up-sell screens, after placing an order. Once a customer elects to Checkout, the Facebook Upload up-sell screen will be displayed before the Order Summary screen.

Once you have selected an option, you will be taken to the Image Multi-Select screen.
Use the Image Multi-Select screen to indicate which photos you would like to include in your upload.
Description of Features:
- Touch a thumbnail to select it. Selected images will have a green checkmark over them.
- Use the rotate button in the right corner of each thumbnail to rotate the image in 90-degree increments.
- The bottom of the screen reports the number of photos you have selected for upload.
- The side panel buttons are used to scroll through your list of images. If a scroll button is disabled (faded), either the end or the beginning of the image set has been reached.
- Press the Select All button to select all the photos on the screen.
- Post a link on my Facebook Wall: Allows the customer to opt whether or not a link should be posted on Facebook to allow friends to order photos online using their photos.
- Use the options in the Sort By tabs to order the thumbnails by the method indicated:
- Name orders the thumbnails alphabetically, from A-Z (ascending), based upon the filename of the images. This is the default selection.
- Oldest sorts the thumbnails from oldest to newest, based upon the file creation date and time of the image.
- Newest sorts the thumbnails from newest to oldest, based upon the file creation date and time of the image.
**Note: The Oldest and Newest tabs use the actual file creation date/time of the image file to determine the sort order. On some cameras, this may differ from the date/time that the image was actually taken.
8. Use the options in the Show tabs to filter which thumbnails are displayed based upon the chosen method:
- All Photos shows all images that have been loaded into the APM software. This is the default selection.
- By Date Range filters the images that are shown based upon a specified date range. When selecting this tab, a window will display options to specify the date range. Use the + and – buttons to change the dates. When finished, press Filter.
- Folder filters the thumbnails based upon certain subdirectories on the inserted media. When selecting this tab, a window will display a list of the subdirectories of all the media inserted. To filter by a particular subdirectory, select it and press Filter.
9. Post a link on my Facebook wall so friends and family can re-order prints & gifts.: This option allows the customer to post an additional link to the photos for easy ordering through Photo Finale Web. This checkbox will only appear if it is enabled in the Setup Wizard.
10. Press the Continue button once all the images you wish to add to the upload product have been selected.
11. The Facebook credentials screen will then launch and prompt you for your account information in order to complete the Facebook upload product.
