How to Use the MySpace Profile Editor

i used the myspace profile editor and it messed up my page, i cant go back and change anything on it, the background and everything wont change, and i really need help to like make my profile normal, lol, it was cool to use but now i cant edit. whats going on?

If you can’t make changes using the profile editor then you should contact MySpace Support and see if they can help you.

um…. mine too i don’t like the editor now. i used to but it messed up.

Did you try using the Undo button when it messed up? That works wonders.

If you’re doing the editor and you don’t like what you see, don’t click SAVE.

If you’ve already saved and you want to go back, try the Clear All button. When I did this with mine, my profile reverted back to the same style I had before I used the editor.

Seems that the Clear All button only clears what you did with the editor, not what you’ve done with the code.

there is no ‘clear all’ button anymore on the new profile editor. I know how that button used to solve all problems like missing contact table etc. Even after you saved everything you could go back and clear all and it would put it all back to the default letting you used other layouts.

i used profile editor but now ever since they updated myspace every time i click on profile editor it just takes me 2 my profile. i have even tried on my friends computer logged on on my account and it did the same. but it doesnt do it when shes logged on her account. i have tried emailing myspace support but they never replied. plz reply

Sounds like you need to contact MySpace support http://www.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=misc.contact

where in the world is the “clear all” button?

yeah the same thing happened to me. now my page will never go back. im thinking of making a new one but i dont want to. because i cant clear every single thing ive done

Try this site to create your MySpace profile http://personalweb.about.com/od/myspacecom/ss/stylrys.htm

They must have changed the profile editor because there is no clear all button and I cant undo the changes I made on my profile now. Really makes me mad. I cant add a new background or layout because theres no way to undo the stupid profile editor changes. Even if you attempt to contact Myspace all you get is an automated email telling you useless info. I just dont know what to do

I hate the new profile editor!At first i made changes to my profile then i wanted to change it but i couldnt clear everything so it screwed up my entire page.And it wont look right when i try to put a default layout in.I dont know what to do.

this site http://personalweb.about.com/od/myspacecom/ss/stylrys.htm will let you make and save as many myspace profiles as you want. Give it a try.

i think its stupid cuz now my page is all messed up and i cant change it back to the way it was before i used it and i really want my page to go back to the way it was before we used this you guys should have told us that you couldnt change the words back i want my profile back tothe way it was

Myspace took out the “about me” section, and there is no way to enter your own layout now. All the free layout pages..useless. You are forced to use myspace’s layouts, and you cant add music players of your own, photos or anything. It basically ruins myspace completely for me. Its a terrible move by myspace.

The About Me section is still there. It’s under the “Blurbs” tab. They sectioned out the profile into different pages, that’s all.

if you looking to edit your profile ie you canot see your about me or who i would like to meet i no what to do i had the same problem.
login myspace and go to profile edit profile click on intrest and personality and there you will see it.

mysdpace has only change the look of some things.

i signed up on my space…..while myspace sent me a e-mail that i need to click on to verify my account, when i try to click on the e-mail that says to complete the process to verify my e-mail address nothing happens.thus not letting me send messages to other myspace people……thanks……..scott

Hi Scott, sounds like you need to contact MySpace support http://www.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=misc.contact

I HATE THE NEW EDITOR
u cant change ur background pic anymore cause then u cant read ur writeing cause it doesnt leave a blank space wr ur stuff in the about me section is anymore

D’: cry* cry*

if you can’t change your profile because of the Profile editor
Found a fix to this-

go here http://profileedit.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=profile.editor

It’s the link to the profile editor. This is where you can Clear all.

In my “about me” section is all these codes that show up when someone views my profile what have I done?I contacted myspace and what they tell me to do does’t work it keeps telling me to remove codes i don’t know how!I just want my profile back to normal!

In the “Edit Profile” page you’ll see some code. Delete it. Then your profile will go back to a normal MySpace page. If you want to keep some of the code then only delete the code you don’t want. If you’re not sure, save the whole code in a text file in case you need to add it back in later. The code could be in any of the sections on the page.

i used the profile editor, and changed the color of my navigation bar, but i went to take it off, and the profile editor was gone.
does anyone know where it went?

yeah i tried the same thing, and the profile editor button wasnt there..i would like to know where it went also

PLEASE HELP!
NOTHING, i mean NOTHING any of you said works. NOTHING WORKS! >:*(
This is so FW7O38QT@u894f3rv7e!?!?!vwfebetb9f)(*&^*
PLEASE HELP! My myspace page is just TOTALLY DIFFERENT. And I have no F****** Idea what to do! PLEASE HELP ME

I used myspace editor and i want my profile back to normal. I dont know how to make it a regular myspace profile?

The new editor stinks!!! It screwed up my whole page. Can’t make any changes, tried going back to old version like they said…it won’t! This is proof that change is not always a good thing! If you are still able to edit the old way, DON’T TRY THE NEW STUFF!! You won’t be able to go back…

myspace profile editor 2 SUCKS
i like 1 better it more advanced options…they lie when they say 2 has more advanced options…
editor 1 allow me to change my background using my own pics…the new editor limits you to just colors and themes….its boring to simple and lame….i hate it….i want the old one back..it toook a second to change my background, now i chant change it at all unless i want to look like a cookie cutter layout…BS

that myspace 2 or whaterver it is is stupid. i liked the old one better because i could put my own pics as my backround and now every time i go to change the pic on it, it wont let me because it says that i should upgrade or some random crap. now i have to make a new one unless i want to be stuck the with the same profile forever :/

it will not allow you to use the profile editor anymore. i have already changed text on my page different colors & now i cnt put the default colors back, now what do i do ?

i used profile editor before and since myspace updated i cant delete the picture background i made off. everytime i click profile editor, profile themes doesnt even come up.the profile 2.0 comes up. i really want to get my page back to normal.please help!!!

I used the profile editor and now can’t go back in to change anything. The profile themes is missing. I’ve contacted myspace support and get no info. on how to actually fix the problem, just how to’s on the profile 1.0 or 2.0 that doesn’t help. Has anyone been able to get this problem fixed?? And how? Help!!!

i use the profile editor 1.0 cuz at first i didnt no how to use the layouts..but now i no..but now 1.0 the layout i made before keeps poppn up when i use my other layouts and now its messinq up my page

I emailed customer support regarding the background/profile editor for 1.0 issues and they wrote back and said:

MySpace Customer Care is not able to directly assist you with HTML questions and inquiries. For information on using HTML/XML/CSS with your MySpace profile go to: http://www.myspace.com/profilesupport

I am really mad because now I am stuck with a layout that says I am expecting a baby but I miscarried and now can’t delete or over ride my background….

I FOUND IT!!!

http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=289245902&blogID=410330082

Go to this forum, it gives you a code to get to the old profile editor for 1.0 so you can delete your old background. You can even add a new one but i’m not going to just in case they override this code soon and i’d be stuck with a background again that i dont want!

what do u go to when u follow the link to take off ur old background

If you cant clear your old background off from profile 1.0 all you need to do is go to your profile and type &pe=1 at the end of your friend ID. It will take you straight back to profile editor 1.0 so you can change your background.

your welcome :]

I thought this was extremely awesome till i realised i STILL cant use myspace 1.0 profile editor.
whoever discovered this &pe=1 thing.
your awesome, thanks.

but myspace/tom…you suck.

what do u go to when u follow the link to take off ur old background

Megan, You’re Awsome!

Thanks to Megan I now have a tutorial to help you through this http://personalweb.about.com/od/myspacecom/qt/mysproffix.htm

TO TAKE OFF ALL CHANGES FROM THE NEW EDITOR
look at the top of the page above EXIT and PUBLISH
it going to say convert back to 1.0 when you convert, it automatically go to your old profile.
I was freaking out to until i found it and it works.

yeah, myspace is hella making me mad… its not right how I cant do anything anymore with the editor but I see everyone else changing theres all the time.. ITS A CONSPIRACY

GUYS!! I FIGURED IT OUTTT!!! YAY!!! I WAS SO PIST CUZ IT WOULDN GO BACK TO MY REG. MYSPACE.

GO TO EDIT PROFILE
CLICK ON “CUSTOMIZE PROFILE” THING
THEN ON THE TOP IT’LL SAY “EXIT” AND “PUBLISH”
PRESS EXIT.

IT GIVES U THE OPTIONS TO “DISCARD” OR “SAVE”
OR SUMTIN LIKE THAT
AND RIGHT UNDER THAT IT SAYS “GO BACK TO PROFILE 1.0″ OR SUMTIN.. CLICK THAT!!!
AND CLICK “SWITCH TO PROFILE 1.0″

IT WORKS!

the new profile editor 2.0 sucks, 1.0 was waaaay better whoever discovered that &pe=1 thingy is a genius and a huge lifesaver

My profile editor really really is annoying me. It wont save anything that I want. It did save changes at first, but when I wanted to change my background it wouldnt save a flipping thing. So now Im stuck with just the default background. Can someone please tell me what the heck is going on. I tried to go back to 1.0 abd that isnt working either.

I hate the myspace 2.0 editor.

HELPPPPP!!!!!!!!! i used the profile editor 1.0 to change my text and i can change it back! ive tried EVERYTHING!! anything posted on this page ive tried as well. NOTHING works. and i dont wanna delete my account and start over because ive got soo much stuf (i.e comments from friends, picture comments etc.) that ill never get back. i just want to get my layout back to the way that it was! i HATE the new profile editor. ive tried clicking start over and it doesnt work. theres no clear all button so idk what to do!! can someone please help me?? dont forget that this is for profile editor 1.0. i even tried switching to 2.0 and then going back to 1.0 and THAT didnt work either.

when i change my thing to black on my page..then i save it..i go back on my page and it isnt there…why?

Myspace…is little bit suck lately. There will be no easy way to correct unless its inventor create it. Are you sure that tom you see is the real tom,tom who is back then? For me, no. A real inventor will never ever let its creation run with a lot of problem. Go, see t edison. Tom there is just a puppet. This is what happens to youtube. Go ask them. This is the same prob. SOLD.

i use to have 1.0 profile so i changed it to 2.0 but i didnt have to download anything it was just a button that i clicked. i want to go back to 1.0. i hate 2.0 i cant change anything on it. i cant change my layout i’ve had my layout for uhh long time. and the only way i think i can get that 2.0 off my page is to delete my myspace and make a new 1, but i didnt want to do that so i reallllly need help please???
thank you!

ive pressed clear all and when i lokk at my preofile it still looks the same wy before. im completly dont with the editor…HELP!!!

i hate the new 2.0.I have a new myspace page and it started me off with the 2.0 version and i cant get it to go to the 1.0 version. this thing is so stupid.

I made a new profile and the 2.0 was already set. Its pissing me off bcuz its literally impossible to change it back to 1.0 and I HATE 2.0! Help me casue this: &pe=1 doesnt work at all.

I opened an account for a friend. I already prepared the who codes in my open office. Now I wanted to put them into the editor and I saw this strange version of myspace (2.0) was already set. when I click this little arrow (go back) it tells me I can start from scratch but not switch to version 1.0 (the codes are only for 1.0) how can I fix that? is there a way?

Okay. i switched back and forth between 2.0 and 1.0 i have no problem with doing that. the problem is, i want a 1.0 profile.. and it only lets me use “themes.” it wont let me put in my own codes, and it wont let me use my about me anymore… someone help?

Help? I’ve just made a new myspace account. And I got profile editor 2.0. I can’t revert back to profile editor 1.0, my account got deleted. So I had to make a new one. It doesn’t give me the option to go back to the way it used too. I tried eveything everyone said: And I saw nothing that says: “Go back to profile editor 1.0″ This makes me mad because I hate the layouts on profile editor 2.0; -sigh- I hate Tom so much for this.

okay, ihave profile editor 2.0 and i dont want the stupid HUGE part at the very top where it has the “extra” pictures and then it’s all screwed up..none of those comments above helped me at all.
I was trying to change my background and before i had used editor 1.0 and now i cant change my background because i have a pasted in code. i cant change ANYTHING. it’s making me mad.

I have a 1.0 profile, and everytime I put the &pe=1 after my myspace address to edit it, it doesnt work!!! all that comes up is “error on page”. i cant edit my background at all. this is getting on my nervessssss

wow. MiiMii is right. it does work. thanks =D

I have a myspace musicians page. I can change the profile with the personal account. How do you change the profile, background colors, themes, etc for a musicians account. It appears as if the Profile Editor 2.0 is not available. You can shoot a response on the myspace page or to my personal e-mail mnash3@hotmail.com. Thanks for any assistance that is provided.

Strange Mark. Have you tried the old fashioned way. http://personalweb.about.com/od/myspacecom/ht/myspbackgrounds.htm

I know what I want my profile to look like. But I don’t see a plain “SAVE” button. It only says SAVE AND PUBLISH. I tied clicking on this but it doesn’t save it???

Gabby, that button should save your profile, and then publish it to your MySpace profile. Have you checked looking at your profile from the perspective of what your friends are looking at. Somewhere on the MySpace page is a link to see what your profile looks like to others. Maybe it did save and publish. Otherwise, you’ll need to contact MySpace support.

I HATE THIS DAMN 2.0. IT MESSED UP MY WHOLE PROFLIE. I CANT CHANGE ANYTHING ANYMORE!

the whole blog comment from Mimi really works, it sounds stupid but it honestly gives you the option of switching back to the 1.0 profile. i’m not entirely sure why it does it, or if it’s going to last but you should do that if you just got a new myspace (like myself) and don’t like the new 2.0 layout. i myself, hate the new profile. this will get you back to what you like!

This Did Not Help A Bit My Question Was Not Answerd…I Used Profile Editor To Have A Picture Backround I’ve Tried To Take The Backround Off But Everytime I Try The Same Backround Keeps Coming Up Please Contact Me On How To Fix My Problem Asap.

Thank You.
Jessica.

so basically…this editor really sucks
and i am very unhappy with everything it has
done for my page.
how fantastic!

All these comments are mostly about 2.0 version, but the 1.0 version does the same thing. I used the profile editor on the first version and it wont let me change it. I tried putting some other layout on there, and it won’t change. I can’t fix it like all the other posts say to do by switching back to version 1.0 because I never tried the new version to start off with. Even the old version does it. Please help me I dont want to keep the same background forever. I like to change it, but it wont let me. I tried starting over in the profile editor and everything but when I go to view my profile it still has the exact same background, it wont change. e-mail me at happygirl3034@hotmail.com please. thanks

Ok found the solution!! for even the first version 1.0. Here it is.

IF IT SEEMS LIKE IT’S NOT SAVING YOUR CHANGES, THEN GO TO YOUR OWN PROFILE,
AND THEN HOLD DOWN THE CONTROL KEY ON YOUR KEYBOARD AND THEN PRESS F5

BEFORE YOU POST A COMMENT HERE THAT SAYS “IT DOESNT WORK….”

1) clear your temporary internet files (your cache)
2) clear your cookies
3) reboot your computer
4) log back in and try it
5) STILL “doesnt work”?
6) try a different browser (if you are using IE, use firefox instead, if you are using firefox, use IE instead)
7) try a different computer (use your mom’s computer, or go over to your friend’s house, and try it using their computer)

Have you tried the fix http://personalweb.about.com/od/myspacecom/qt/mysproffix.htm

What you have to do is pick go to customize profile (with 2.0).
Then you go to photobucket.com and search for anything (ducks,birds, pokemon ect.) and click on the picture you want. There on the left-bottom corner there are 4 URLs. Click on the one that says “Direct link” and copy it. then go back to Myspace and go to customize profile.

click on advanced edit and backround.
Paste the code in the “Backround” thing.
Then on reeat click on “Tile” and there.
If you can’t handle technology then don’t try it. You’ll get frustrated.
