    Why don't you sign in without going through Facebook ?

    Oh, OK. So, can you not choose to log on without going through FB now then ? I don't use FB to log in but maybe once you've done it once you have no choice ?

    There should be an option to click forgot password once you have entered user name, but you will get an e mail to the e mail registered when you opened account so would need access to that
