problem with PS3's XMB Facebook feature

[Fastphil96]

So I discovered yesterday that the XMB in the PS3 has a feature that allows it to post information to your Facebook page. I selected "Yes" on the feature that allows trophies to be published, and then entered my FB account and password, and I'm still not getting anything published. I've had at least 2 trophies since I set it up. Is this a common problem? Does it take a long time to publish things or is it supposed to be instant?

Any help would be appreciated!

I'm pretty sure it publishes things in batches. Maybe it does a daily update. Not sure.

OK, I'll sit tight for a bit and see what happens, thanks!

It (usually) only publishes when you sync your trophies - you can do this in-game by going to the Friends section of the XMB and viewing your own profile; when not in a game you can go to the Trophies section under Game and that will also start a sync. Also make sure you've given the Playstation Network app permission to publish to your wall in your settings on Facebook.

I have two PSN apps in my Facebook, one is simply called "Playstation(R)Network" and the other is called "Playstation(R)Network Application", which one is responsible for posting the trophies?

I only have the former in my app list, so it's definitely the first one.

Hmm, this official PSN webpage shows a link to the latter of the two apps I have...

I guess I'll just have to wait and see which will post the trophies!

Mines does it whenever i sync trophies and it shows up on my FB.But even at that it can be very hit and miss which is a wee bit of a problem.

OK I just sync'd trophies this mornngn when I fired up the PS3 and they just showed up on my FB. Thanks for the input, guys. And it is indeed the "Playstation(R)Network" app that does it.
