Effective October 06, 2022, you will no longer be able to use “Sign in with Facebook“ to access your IMDb account. You can maintain access to your account and any saved information by setting a password on your IMDb account using the reset password process. Once you have done this, you will be able to use the “Sign in with IMDb” option for any future logins.
If you previously used "Sign in with Facebook" to access your IMDb account, please take the following steps to retain access to your account:
- Go to the IMDb Reset Password Page.
- Input the email associated with your Facebook account and select "Continue". You will receive an email with a link to reset your IMDb password.
- Return to the IMDb sign in page and select "Sign in with IMDb" to log in to IMDb with your email and new password.
If you have previously followed these instructions or have already set a password for your IMDb account, please return to the sign in page and use the "Sign in with IMDb" login method.
If you do not reset your password, you will not be able to access your IMDb account and the associated data (e.g. contributions, lists, ratings, recommendations, etc.).
For details on other IMDb account issues, please visit our help page: IMDb login/registration issues

I had my Imdb account for 10 years now and it was associated with my Facebook account
after the feature was removed I tried to reset my password as recommended but it refused to do that and kept sending saying this e-mail isn't associated with an account
to find out that my Imdb account is linked to my old Facebook account that I have already changed like 7 years ago because I don't have access to it any more
So is there any way to get into my account ?
I still have the log in in the phone app but unfortunately you can't change your e-mail from the app

I have this account for so many years and I always used Facebook to login, and I just realized that it is not possible to login like this any more. The problem is that I don't even know what is the email associated to this account.
Account info:
ID: amilcar-navalhadas
Is it possible to merge the old account with the one associated to my email: pacleal@gmail.com
Thank you very much

Hi,
I'm unable to login to my account because of the removal of this feature.
Many years ago I registered to IMDb with my old email address which is no longer in use now, so resetting my password is not possible.
I'm still logged in to my account on my old phone, but I would like to also login on my new phone and on my desktop, but I can't find any way to do it now. Unfortunately, there are no account settings I can change on the mobile app of my old phone.
Could you please give me a way to change the email address and/or the password, so I can retrieve my account?
Thanks.

Hello Everyone,
I was using the IMDB app in my phone for several years now. I believe the first time I registered I used the "register through FB", that now is not available anymore, but I was always logged in and I cumulated a lot of votes, created lists and watchlist... so I put a lot of time on this account.
Yesterday I wanted to modify something on my setting but, although logged in, the app asked me to re-insert the login data to access the private area of my profile. Since Fb was not allowed anymore I proceeded with Google, only to discover at the end of the process that I basically created a new account.
All that I did in the past, was gone. That horrible feeling.
I want to know if there's possibility to merge the profile or to recover the old one. I remember partially my username (it was a mix of characters and random numbers). It was connected to Fb so no email was associated with it.
I hope that someone can help me with that
Thank you for taking the time to read this

Hi all, I can't access my IMDB acc at all since I don't have access to the email address associated with my FB account.
As far as I know, this isn't uncommon and many people refuse to use their personal or main email address to associate with Facebook.
I need help to access my account again and would like if someone could change the email address on my acc.

I even have fairly new credits added to my iMDB account. But, try as I might, I no longer have access to my old email. I used to log on using Facebook--but without warning (or at least any warning I saw), I got logged out. And now I'm panicking.
Can someone please help?

Hi there,
I used to use Facebook sign-in to login to IMDB and haven't had to sign back in for ages but just today (21/10/2023) I loaded up the IMDB app on my iPhone and it asked me to login.
Tried to login using the Facebook option but it doesn't do anything so tried on the IMDB website instead.
Got the message saying that Facebook login is no longer working and to reset my password using the reset password page.
It says to use the email address associated with my Facebook account however this is where a problem lies.
I used an email to sign up to Facebook years ago and obviously then used the sign-in option for Facebook on IMDB also years ago.
Since then I've changed my email address on Facebook due to no longer having access to that email account. It's been that way for a while now.
That however leaves me with a major problem as I'm unable to reset the password as the reset password page doesn't recognise my new email address.
Placing the original email address that I no longer have access to into the reset password page seems to work but obviously I have no way of getting to that email!!! 🙁
What can I do as I've got loads of shows and movies stored in lists that I absolutely don't want to lose?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Mark
P.S. I've had to create a completely new IMDB login just to post this question which isn't exactly ideal. 😟
