What did happen to your second profile?

I somehow got two profiles on facebook on my laptop. One worked on my laptop the other on my iohone. I deleted one on my laptop and thstr deleted my face book access on my iphone.
i really want only one profile that works on both

I assume that you deleted the same account which was on your phone as well.
That is why you do not have open profile on a phone now.

Customer Replay

i think so

In this case, you can log in to that same account on a phone.
