📎 AI Summary:
A user asked about enabling a shuffle feature for their Facebook contacts displayed on the Windows 8 Contact Live Tile, noting only a subset of friends appears in rotation. The forum responses clarified that the shuffle (or "live tile") feature is limited to turning on or off, and there’s no customization for which contacts appear, but the displayed friends change over time. The overall sentiment suggests patience, as the number of contacts shown may increase gradually, and the shuffle cannot be manually controlled beyond toggling the live tile.

Hey Guys, yesterday i installed Windows 8 Pro.
Everything Okay.

I synched my Facebook Friends with the Contact Live Tile and it is showing me the Profile Pictures.
But there are only like 10-12 shuffeling, not all my Friends.

Is there a Chance to get a Shuffle to the Contact Live Tile?


Thank you :)

Hi,

open up your metro screen (sorry Modern UI screen, it's new name) and right click on the tile in question. You'll see along the bottom 'Turn live tile on or off', just turn it off to stop the shuffle.

Hi,

Welcome to the forum :)

I think you mean the People app? You can turn the shuffling off or on but thats about it. You can't really change or add or subtract what get's shown. It does change with time however so give it a while and see how you go..

I think it gets better with time.. I'm sure mine displays more now than when it first was enabled.
