Cannot migrate to Meta Account - no confirmed email address on file for this account

Please help if you can.

 

I have an Oculus quest.  I have an oculus account -that's how i can post here.


I also linked my Facebook account to my quest years ago. No issues.


Now there's been a update 4.6 overnight and I am blocked from using the Quest without migrating to a Meta account online.

 

Every time I try and select to continue with Facebook , it actually pulls out all my facebook email details and then tells me 'Something went wrong, no confirmed email address on file for this account' and to Log Out.

 

Have tried multiple browsers and through my phone but to no avail.

I am locked out of my quest and wanted to get some Tribe XR djing done tonight.

 

Appreciate anyone who may have an answer.


Tony

    Just figured it out. On your Facebook settings add a new email and confirm it. After doing that try setting up the Meta account with no Facebook account and it'll give you the option of either one of your emails. Use your normal email and the setup process should be like normal.

     

    I'm guessing the Meta's system didn't recognise the email as confirmed so it needed another one to get confirmation on both accounts in the backend.

     

    Hope this works for you as well!
