How to Use AOL to Sign on to Facebook
Though you cannot sign in to Facebook with your AOL login credentials, you can use your AOL email address as the primary identifier on the social networking site. You can start using your AOL email address on Facebook in one of two ways: signing up for a new account or changing your email address from an existing account.
