Can't connect to Facebook any more

cant connect to facebook anymore

So I solved the mystery: It has to do with facebook settings, in fact as of time of writing (Nov 2013), the setting is in Facebook, under the oddly named Apps/Older versions of Facebook for Mobile.
I had this set to "Only me", once I set it to "Public", it all worked.
In fact, after I deleted my facebook link in Mavericks' "Internet Accounts" I couldn't even reconnect until I discovered this switch on Facebook.
I appears that this is an older API for accessing Facebook, so OSX must still be using that function.
Weird that google couldn't turn up any clues.

  • I can't connect to Facebook, it doesn't even register the site, and I can't even ping it in CMD?

    I can't connect to Facebook. I could this morning, but suddenly I can't anymore. It tries to load, and then says "The connection has timed out".
    I also can't connect with Internet Explorer. However, I can connect with Firefox, or IE from other computer (Other computer also has other internet provider).
    I can connect to any other site on the web, like I am now on Mozzila support.
    When I go to run, CMD, and type "ping www.facebook.com" it also says "Request timed out", and 4 packets lost. When I ping it, I get "star.c10r.facebook.com [31.13.64.65]". When I search for that IP i get "Facebook Ireland Ltd".
    When I do same ping on my other computer (and other internet provider) he pings "star.c10r.facebook.com [179.60.192.3]" and pings correctly. From that other computer I also can't ping first IP (31.13...), but from first computer (on which I can't go to Facebook site) I can ping second ping (179...) correctly, but I need to type it in manually. When I just type "ping www.facebook.com" it gives me that first IP that doesn't work (31...).
    Why does it happen, and why do I get different IP's when I type "ping www.facebook.com"?
    Any idea how to fix it?

    Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
    to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
    updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
    Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
    '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configure-firewalls-so-firefox-can-access-internet Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.]''' {web link}
    Type '''about:preferences#advanced'''<Enter> in the address bar.
    Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''Network.'''
    Look for '''Configure How Firefox Connects''' and press the '''Settings''' button.
    Check the settings.
    Contact your ISP and have them check your service.

    I have WRT110 Linksys wireless router. I also have the latest firmware. fw 1.0.04. I have no problems connecting wired connections(2 PCs) and 1 wireless connection. However, when i tried connecting 2 or more wireless connections(3 laptops). All computers gets disconnected. I need to turn off the router again and my computers to get connected but only 2 PCs and 1 wireless laptop... Any help please! I already talked to tech support and no help! We tried to power cycle, reset for 30 secs, remove adapter, cables, etc. and didn't help! Same results! Can't connect on 2 or more wireless connections. We edited the basic wireless setting to WEP/WPA personal, band, channels, still no luck too! Im getting frustrated with this router. PLEASE HELP! I have Time Warner Road Runner cable internet. Thanks in advance!

    Try these settings  on Advanced Wireless
    settings>>Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation
    Threshold to 2304 Change the RTS Threshold to 2304. and Upload the same firmware on the router once again.

  • Why can I not import pictures any more? Lightroom says "Your Lightroom 5 64-bit does not work correctly"

    I restarted the PC and than I installed the LR 5.7 again - repair
    Trouble 1:
    Two days ago I could work with my LR 5 and to import pictures from a SD was no problem. Now I can start LR 5 and I can watch/modify pictures, but as soon as I try to import new pictures LR 5 stops and gives the message "your LR 5 64-bit does not work correctly - searching for solution". I have not changed anything in my computer since lasttime LR 5 worked properly, only the registry was optimized by Norton 360.
    Trouble 2:

  • My ipod touch can´t play some music any more

    my ipod touch can´t play some music any more. iTunes don´t transfer it to my ipod touch but the capacity is taken. Can someone help me please?

    My problem is a bit different, but I suspect not really unrelated. With very few exceptions, my entire music library on my iPod Touch is mixed up since updating to iOS 5. Albums display with incorrect album artwork, and contents of the albums is a jumbled mix of unrelated songs (could be any song from my library). And they won't play. The library is fine on my computer.
    I removed all of the music from the iPod, then re-synched it with no improvement.
    I also removed all apps other than those that come with the iOS, thinking it may be an incompatibility. Also no improvement.
    My next attempt was going to be restoring to original settings, but it sounds like folks have tried that with no luck.
    I hope Apple is reading these posts and looks into what sounds like a myriad of issues with the new iOS!

  • Help, my googlemaps can not use the gps any more after updated the software.

    hello
    i am fresh here
    about a month ago i got a 9630 from bell
    at first the googlemap works well, but a few days ago i updated the software(9630AMEA_PBr4.7.1_rel77_PL4.1.0.40_A4.7.1.40_Bell_Mobility_Inc)
     since then it can't use the gps any more.
    it always say "your current location is temporarily unavailable. gps temporarily unaviliable "
    thank you very much if any buddy can help me

    Go into your OPtions, then advanced options, applications and highlite google maps, menu button, edit permissions.  make sure they are set to "allow".  this will typically solve it.  also go into your GPS settings (under options) and make sure its set to "location On".
    Try these and you should be back up and running.

  • Can't connect to facebook from candy crush using my iphone 5?

    can't connect to facebook from candy crush using my iphone 5

    Returned home only to find the same situation with my home network. Much time on chat support with Apple. Short story long: Must have been corrupted software. Had to restore original original software then add back apps and music. Couldn't back up before doing the restore so I lost a bunch of pics, but at least the phone is working once again.

  • HT1414 I restored my I phone 4 using Itunes, after that I can't access the icon any more I only got a message that says " ( Sim not Valid.) Only compatible SIM cards from supported carrier may be used to activate iphone.

    I restored my I phone 4 using Itunes, after that I can't access the icon any more I only got a message that says " ( Sim not Valid.) Only compatible SIM cards from supported carrier may be used to activate iphone. I need some proffesional help. Thanks

    "We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care, Sim not vaild?"
    99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
    So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.

  • [SOLVED] Can't connect to Facebook

    For the past couple months, neither of my web browsers (Epiphany or Chromium) can get anywhere past the newsfeed on facebook.com.  If I click on a link at the news feed, it loads for a couple of minutes, then (chromium) shows me a message:
    Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.
    I've tried using a different account and purging the cache, ala https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=131070 but to no avail.  Strangely enough, Facebook works perfectly fine in all of my VMs.  Any ideas?

    I find it strange that it's just this one webpage.  Doesn't seem to happen to anything else.  I can ping facebook fine.
    There is a lot more to Facebook slow connection problems than just seeing if you can ping them - I monitor http://downrightnow.com/facebook which tells you whether there is a general problem getting the Facebook servers to respond to login and user requests to do a whole slew of things once logged in - very frequently they have severe slowness to respond even when pinging seems fine!  My guess is that their servers simply can't deal with the load a lot of the time.  They are building new server farms (for example one in FInland but it won't be brought into service for another year or so at least) - so in the meantime we get periods when more users are trying to use Facebook than they can handle - but there is no-one I can find to talk to about it or any official server status page to look at!
    Good luck.
    Hmm, very cool site.  I'll keep that one bookmarked.  I'm pretty sure it has to do with me though: native browsers don't work but VMs do (at the same time).  Also, my android device using wifi on the same network works fine.

  • Can't See The Wife Any More

    We have an iMac 24 (Intel) with built-in iSight in our kitchen in the house. I have a G5 (no camera) in the office (same network). We're both on Tiger.
    For a couple of years my wife has been able to call me up via Bonjour and I can see her in the iChat window. Just recently the connection still works for audio but I can't see her any more. She can see herself in the iChat window and I get an iChat window but mine is just a blank white space – no darling wife.
    I've checked the preferences but can't see that anything has changed.
    Help appreciated.
    Bob.

    Thanks but no that didn't work. However I've established that it's 'my end' i.e. it's the G5 that's not playing ball.
    I also have a MacBook Pro in the office (Leaopard) and tried a one-way-video from that machine to the G5 (after setting the preferences and re-starting iChat as you suggested) and the result is the same.
    It sounds like it's going to work, I get the dull chime when I accept the Video Chat but just the same shortened white screen.
    So I tried a video chat (two way) between the iMac and the MacBook Pro and that works fine. (I thought I'd also try a one-way-video chat form the iMac to the PowerBook but there's no option for this – the little devil must know the PowerBook has a camera.)
