If you change the name of the Facebook album you upload photos to from Instagram, the next time you share a photo to Facebook a new album titled Instagram Photos will be created. If you’d like all of your images to appear in one album, you shouldn’t change the name.

No, but you can move the photo from you Instagram Photos album to a new album once it’s uploaded. Learn how to move photos between albums on Facebook.

2. Tap (iPhone and Windows Phone) or(Android) beneath the photo > Share Photo.
3. Tap the icon for where you’d like to share your photo (ex: Facebook, Twitter). If you haven’t yet linked your Instagram account to that site or service, you’ll be prompted to log in. The icon for that site will turn blue once you’ve linked your accounts.

If you’re sharing an iOS 6 iPhone or iPad with someone and that person has previously logged into and linked their Instagram and Facebook accounts, you may be seeing that person’s Facebook information when you sign up for Instagram.

To link the correct Instagram and Facebook accounts, you’ll need to remove the other person’s Facebook account from iOS 6 and add your account instead:

1. Open your iOS settings
2. Tap Facebook
3. Tap the other person’s name and then tap Delete Account

When you sign up for Instagram, you can register with an email address or with your Facbook account. You can also share Instagram posts to your Facebook Timeline by linking your accounts.

This may happen if someone has used your phone to log into Instagram and has then linked their Facebook and Instagram accounts.

To relink your Instagram account with your Facebook account:

1. Go to your Instagram profile and then tap Edit Share Settings > Facebook
2. Visit Facebook’s app settings to revoke access to Instagram which will unlink the wrong Facebook account.
3. Just tap the Facebook icon again and enter your login information to link the correct account.
