Yes, there is a way to go back to old Facebook 
Follow these Steps to get OLD FB Back:
- Log into your Facebook Account.
Click on “Account” (Top Right), Click on “Account Settings”, and under “Deactivate Account” click “deactivate”.
After your account has been deactivated.
Log back in after 10 minutes, and you should have the old Facebook.
So basically, deactivating it for at least 10 minutes can get you your Old facebook back
If it worked for you, change your FB status to help others

If you have already upgraded your Facebook Profile to New profile, you may be out of luck. According to Facebook FAQs, you cannot return to the previous version. You have to take a tour of the new version, and stick with it. Please join our FB group to get your voice heard.

None of the ways work now, and there is no way to get the old Facebook back. Since the “new” has been removed from Facebook’s homepage and now new Facebook is the only Facebook.
That is GREAT!!!Thanks so much!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHHHH.
Oh my gosh, you area life saver!
THANK YOU. I don’t get why we need a new one..but I am glad I got the old one for now. Thank you so much!!

doesn’t work for me
doesnt matter if i am logged in or not none of the methods above are working for me 
((
OmG thank you so much it totally worked..im not giving in to curiosity again since it was what led me to that new facebook crap..! Thanx a lot..xxxx
Now I can relax again!! Thank you so much thought I was stuck there in a bad dream forever!
I tried this again and its still working. I am using Firefox.
Kamran -
Its only working for the accounts that have not yet been moved! It isn’t working for me!
ive posted your link to facebook sites, and some are saying it works, but some are saying it just takes them to the new facebook!
when i click your link, the address automatically changes from ‘opt out’ to ‘opt in’ .. i think the facebook police are onto it!
I can get in the way you suggested, but only using internet explorer, not firefox.
um its not working and i tried all of them!!
Doesn’t work for me
Didn’t work. But thanks for trying. :/
SWEET!!!, thanks alot!!!
A question: what does the visitor see when he or she visits my site – the old or new version? I am taken to old using one of the methods (great!), but using a different browser brings me to the new. As the user, am I the only one who can “see” the old version that has been restored? Thanks again.
yay, first link worked!
thank you
Chani :
It depends on the user, if he/she is using the new facebook version, they will see your profile in new one, if he/she is using the old one, they will see your profile in old version.
I am not sure why you were redirected to new one from different browser, try clearing your browser cookies.
I am glad it worked for most of you guys.
this didn’t work. i tried all of them
yay! thank u
1st link worked great
I’ve tried all 2 and none of them work, im using internet explorer!! New Facebook sucks!

you need to add the application and then click on the link for it to work
THANK YOU!
Thank you! This really saves the day! The new facebook stinks!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCHH
can you help please? i want old facebook, can you please help me?
Thanks so much! It worked for me!
And to those who can’t figure it out.
The easiest way to go about doing this is to go to the link where it recommends adding the facebook developers application, go ahead and actually add the application, it DOES help in getting the old facebook back.
After adding the application, go back to this website, and click on the first link that tells you is plausible to work.
You have to do it in that order, hope it works out for you!
omfggg. that WORKED
thanks yousss so much YOUR A LIFE SAVER !
Thank you very much, kind sir.
great, thanks
i didnt got it
Thanks frnd u r great
thank you very much
if its not working for you, make sure you add the Facebook Developers application AND THEN click the first link.
Erm, you realise the “You are about to go to another site” is a security measure so that you don’t enter your password on a new site that someone’s set up to look like Facebook to steal your password? Myspace does the same.
I hardly think Facebook would have let you post links and stories if it didn’t want you to visit them. It’s not all a conspiracy, you know.
omg thank you soo much!
It does work if you use an old firefox. If i use Firefox 1.5 and I switch back to the old one it is still the old one but if I use Firefox 2.x or Flock then it always switch back to the new one!
Seriously, seriously NICE ONE
Kamran, how do you know when the old facebook disapears for good?
~
thanks it worked for me!!!!
i am so confused and it doesnt work
You’re my hero! Thank you so much!!!
It worked for me even if I don’t have Firefox; wonderfull !!!
People at Facebook should listen to their members; if it was’nt for us, they would not be where they are now…so we should have the choice to choose wich Facebook layouts we want.
Karin:
Probably Wednesday.
YOU ROCK
Oh my gosh! It worked for me…..
WORKS (after i added developer application) thanks!
omgg thank youu! the last one worked for me
adding the app then using the first link

thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks a lots
Thank you so much!! I really detest the new facebook and when I accidentally clicked “try it” it didn’t give me the choice this time of changing back!! You got me back home now and I can enjoy it until it is changed permanently. Wish they would just leave it alone
ahhh omg. thanks. i doubted this. but it worked! thanks so much. i appreciate it. i love the old facebook!!!!
i don’t understand the first way….which is the link you are talking about to be pasted? where should i paste the link?
on the website address? or next to my email address.
i’ve tried the second and third way…but still it didn’t work
totally worked i added the application and clicked the link, thanks!!
It was working up until 5 minutes ago.
it’s not working anymore…. I think they finally changed it for good. >:(
“All the time, it was… We finally really did it.
You Maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!”
(Planet of the Apes ending)
doesnt work for sum people nemore was working for me then facebook changed it automatically
It worked for me Sunday, but it’s Tuesday and I tried every link hoping it would work but it was to no avail. I think we’re permanent, folks, *defeated sigh*.
Thankyou bro, it work for me.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
you rule!!!!!! the last think worked
That last site where you have to add the application was the only one that worked for me.. But thanks so much! The new facebook is horrible!
i hated the new facebook..
and when my facebook change complety ..
i was so upset x| , even i didn’t log in in a while,
but know that is the only facebook i’ll have
i learn to use it ..
and it’s really more fun that old facebook xD
try using it..
NONE of these worked for me. Grrr bloody ugly thing <_<
It doesn’t work. I have tried it many times.
And I wonder why some can did this and the other not.
i can sometimes get on it then when i play poker it goes bk to old
LOL, New facebook is here now, and it’s not possible to change it back! —- it! Lets all leav as many feedbacks about how much it sucks so that they might get a hint;)
None of these ways are working for me now. The third way worked for a little while, but then Facebook switched me back to the new one again.
The new facebook is waaaaayyy better than the old one.. all of u who want the old facebook back are just ignorant and a bunch of losers…
All the links have stopped working.
Yesterday they worked for me,
but i just checked everything, and its still new fb.
Old Facebook is now dead
Doesn’t work for people living in Bangladesh I guess because it is NOT working for mine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
none of that worked for me
i miss the old facebook so much!
none of them work anymore!
https://www.facebook.com/home.php
From there,
1. Right click on the link you want to go to
2. Copy Shortcut
3. Paste it in your browser
4. Change “http” to “https”
Nothing works anymore. They torpedoed everything…
it’s not working anymore. i keep getting the new one and ive tried all the links. AHHHHH!!! I hate the new facebook.

You guys are so anti-change. The new designs on based on usability and success of other formats through other sits such as twitter. Get the with times and find something else to complain about.
