iPhoto Facebook uploader

    I've tried to find an answer for this online but can't really find anything.
    I'm wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
    When uploading a photo from iPhoto to Facebook using the uploader (Share on the bottom right of iPhoto) the photos always just show up as visible to "Only Me", rather than public.
    I can't seem to find any Privacy options in iPhoto or Facebook to change this, and I need to manually change each photo I upload.
    Don't suppose anyone has had the same problem?

    You should have a default privacy setting enabled under Facebook's Privacy Settings on the website. In iPhoto, choose the option to share with everyone - it sounds crazy but your uploads will default to what you have set in Privacy Settings.

    Thanks for that. My privacy settings for FB were actually set to "Friends", but iPhoto was still uploading as visible to "Only Me".
    However I did find an entry for iPhoto under Privacy Settings and "Apps", and found that was set to "Only Me". It works fine now. The setting was just very well hidden on the FB page.
