I don't know how I did it, I know that while I was looking at photos, I hit the right button on my mouse and a menu appeared. one of the options was "block something something" and I hit that without even thinking, now I can see the albums but I can't open the individual pics. frustrating!!!

With Facebook on display, click on the site identity button (for details on what that is see the site identity button article) and then on More Information. This will open up the page info dialog.

First select the Permissions panel, make sure that "Load Images" is set to allow (selecting Use Default should also work)

Next select the Media panel, then click on the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll through the list. If any item has the option "Block images from (domain name)" selected, de-select the option.

This should hopefully resolve your issue, but also see Fix problems that cause images to not show.

Some add-ons can also block images, for example if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block the images.

It was not working til I remembered the friend's photo page I was looking at when the accident occurred. With that page displayed I repeated your instructions and found one checked item in the Media Panel List. Thank you so much TonyE, I really appreciate your help.  : )
