Facebook Contacts

Wondering if anyone can help. My wife has an Orange San Francisco (ZTE Blade). She's running the facebook app and trying to link her contacts on the phone with the facebook ones.

I have an HTC and on mine I have the option on facebook to select settings manage and sync, but on her phone there is NO sync option. Is there something we have to do to get this option on her phone?

The contacts on both phones have been synced (individually - different accounts) from our gmail accounts.

It all works fine on my phone, the only obvious difference I can see is that I have the HTC sense app loaded onto my facebook settings. Would this make a difference - we've tried to add it manually but can't find that either.

I did do a search before posting, and saw there was an app you could get and run that would update your contacts with their facebook profiles, but we are trying to set this up automatically within the facebook app.
 
Try uninstalling the Facebook app, re-boot, then re-install. I know it sounds wierd but it worked for me once.
 
We've already tried re-installing several times without success (with a reboot in between)

Think I'm on to something. From the main screen, menu and settings, accounts and sync only shows the gmail account. If we select add account, then select facebook it just goes back to the previous screen, so facebook is NOT listed. Now to google some info on that.
