"Automatically Import Activity" from Youtube, Flickr, Digg, etc Not Working
Facebook isn't automatically importing my activity from Youtube, Flickr, Digg, etc. When I manually click "update now" it works fine, but facebook isn't doing it automatically. How often is facebook supposed to import external site activity into the news feed?

Inappropriate?i was having this same facebook problem, specifically with YOUTUBE, and solved it by allowing "favorite a video" into my "recent activity" feed. here is the page where that setting can be confirmed:
http://www.youtube.com/account#privacy/sharing
pardon me if this is an obvious solution that you've already tried!
p.s. - upon first glance you may not see the recent activity settings - just click on the arrow & the section will expand. seems silly for it 2 b closed by default! -
Inappropriate?I started using the friendfeed app on facebook to do the importing, but it looks like facebook has fixed the problem with their importer. It's working today.
I’m thankful
-
Inappropriate?It's not working again... This is really irritating.
-
Inappropriate?removed all my feeds, then added them again (so annoying) then they started working again :|
I’m feeling like facebook needs to figure out how to fix this
-
Inappropriate?And..it's broken again. Tried removing and re-adding but it does not help.
-
Inappropriate?Yup it's busted again. Multiple discussions on flickr and facebook acknowledge that it is not an isolated problem, and has been happening for at least a couple of weeks.
I’m frustrated
-
Inappropriate?This has never worked reliably... worst bit is Facebook blame Flickr and vice-versa...
I’m frustrated & annoyed
-
Inappropriate?It's been working pretty good for youtube for me lately. Importing every 8 hours of so. Picasa hasn't been working for a while tho.
