Thanks for all your help!

  • App World & Facebook App disappeared

     After updating App World & Facebook App, both apps are disappeared from the device, showing in the application management but both applications icon are disappeared from the main list and if I am dowloading them again message appearing that the application already exist. Is anyone can help me to fix this issue?

    Then you will need to make a backup of your device using the Desktop Software. Once you make the backup you will need to wipe the device. After you wipe the device see if those applications show up. If they do then something in your device settings is affecting the display of those icons. You can then use the Desktop Software to selectively restore just the important databases like messages, calendar, contacts, etc. Don't do a full restore as you may end up with the same problem.

  • Facebook app disappears!!

    My Facebook app recently disappeared.  I have uninstalled, deleted, and reinstalled several times and the icon still does not show up access the application.  My World and application lists shows it as being installed but again with out the access.  Can I get some insight with this?

    IT's THERE! It's in the Applications folder with the Calculator and Documents To Go apps. 
    The Applications folder may be "hidden" so you have to "show all" and check ALL the icons for the application folder THEN check for the FB

  • Facebook app disappeared and cannot retrieve?

    I have an iPhone 4S, about a year now.  Yesterday I downloaded a Facebook update and went to sleep.  Wake up in morning and Facebook app is missing from phone.  It was on my front page, next to a blank spot, and now there are two blank spots in the bottom right of my front page.  Here is what I have tried:
    -Resetting phone (home+on/off button).  Reset 3-4 times, nothing.
    -Reinstalling app.  Looked up Facebook app in app store, and shows as being installed.  So there is an "Open" button where there would be an "Install" button if I did not yet have the app.  I click the "Open" button and it does nothing, like it's a dead button.
    -Searching for Facebook.  On the iOs "Search iPhone" bubble (swipe right on home screen) I search for Facebook.  Nothing shows up but contacts.
    -Synching on iTunes.  App doesn't show up on list, tried a synch, reset phone, nothing worked.
    I have 111 apps installed across 7 pages (with a few blank spots scattered across).  I do not and never had "Restrictions" enabled.  I have not changed any other settings anytime recently.  I have 4 gigs of free space on my phone.
    Any guidance here would be appreciated...thanks!

    So guess what...Facebook update released just a few hours ago. Saw it on my iPad and quickly checked on iPhone. Update was there too, so I updated, and the FB app reappeared,on my phone (and it had the "New" designation on it, lol go figure). So, no idea what happened, but fortunately this was the third or so FB update in a week and not one of those droughts of a few months between updates. Very lucky there.

  • Facebook app disappeare​d after upgrade!!

    My Facebook icon has disappeared after doing the latest app world upgrade. App world says its installed but I can't find it. Checked the hidden icons and its not there either. In Options, App Management it says its 'Not Running'. How do I get it back??

    Gotcha.  I think the paid apps will be attached to your blackberry ID so you don't have to pay for them again.  I'm not sure about all the apps though.  I'd say its dependant on the vendor.  If you're thinking about upgrading... I recommend you wait just a bit longer for bb10 if possible!

  • My Facebook app has disappeared

    My Facebook app has disappeared. It still appears in the purchased section of the my app store with status OPEN but when I click on OPEN nothing happens.
    I have restarted my iPad, restored settings and still no help. I was also advised to cable link the iPad to my laptop and in iTunes remove/delete the Facebook app, then re purchase it. When I tried to remove it I was shown a message saying, this will not be deleted from your IOS device.
    Yes eh I can still access Facebook from Safari but that defeats the purpose of the app which gives me notifications immediately.
    I am really keen to find the Solution.

    You do not want to do the Delete/Redownload the App from/to your iTunes Library - you want to Delete/Redownload it from/to your Device. When you hook up your device to iTunes, click on the device, then on the Apps tab to the right in the Device Profile Screens (not on the App under Apps in the Library).
    You should see a little box next to the App that says "Remove". Click on that. It will then change to "Will Remove". Sync your device to remove the app. Then eject the device, check it to make sure the app is no linger listed with "Open" next to it. (depending on your display options, you may still see it but with a little Cloud next to it, or you may not see it listed at all).
    Plug the device back into the computer, and select it again. Then, under Apps in the Device Profile, see if the little box next to the App says "Will Install" If it does, then sync to reinstall it. If it does not, click on the box until you see the "Will Install" option and then sync.

  • Is this a possible bug on the Facebook app for iPhone?

    I tend to suffer from slight paranoia regarding security online and on my phone. I'll try to explain the worry I'm having as best I can.
    Basically, I had a personal video on my phone, (nothing horrible don't worry), but it's of a nature that would be embarrassing to be seen by other people.
    So this video was the latest thing I had recorded/taken with my phone. I went onto the Facebook app on my iPhone to post an older picture I had to my page.
    When I saw that this video was still on my phone, I panicked and worried that it could somehow get posted to my page without me actually posting it e.g. a bug whereby the last picture or video taken would go onto your Facebook without you actually selecting it or posting it. So I deleted it while still on the grid page where you choose your photos/videos and so it disappeared when I went back to the app.
    Can anyone with 100% honesty tell me one way or another if this is possible? If I haven't explained it enough let me know and I'll explain it further. Again, please be honest cos it's the best thing for me. Thanks.

    It may be in Facebook, but Facebook doesn't consider it a bug; it's the way Facebook works. If you gave the app permission to view your photos it gives Facebook access to ALL of your photos. To put your mind at ease go to your Facebook page on your computer and see if it's there.
    If you are concerned about privacy online you probably shouldn't have a Facebook page

  • My apps disappeared with the update of iOS7 on my iPhone 4.

    Hello,
    I recently updated my phone with the new iOS7 software. I have an iPhone 4. Due to lack of available space on my iPhone, I had to restore it in order for the update to be successful. The problem I encountered though was that my apps disappeared. Only Facebook and Instagram didn't. So I tried to download again the missing apps, but whenever I go into the AppStore, next to those apps is only written "open" as if they were still on my phone. But yet they don't appear anywhere on my home screen and I can't update them or delete them.
    I would like to delete them in order to be able to reload them properly, but I don't know how since they don't appear anywhere.
    Thank you.

  • Can't get Facebook App to work on Bold 9700

    I have used the Facebook app on my Bold 9700 the past couple of years.  Recently, after an upgrade of the Facebook app, I can no longer get Facebook to work on my phone.  I have installed and uninstalled the app numerous times.  I have done many hard boots by pulling my battery.  Nothing I try seems to work.
    When I go to options>applications>add ons it shows that the Facebook app is downloaded onto my phone, but the Facebook application has disappeared from my Applications folder.  If I uninstall Facebook, the Facebook app icon re-appears into the Applications folder.  When I install the app again, it disappears from the Applications folder once again.
    If I go to Blackberry World>My World.....Facebook shows as being uninstalled.  If I click on just about anything in My World.....my phone crashes and has to reboot.
    Some serious glitch going on.  Is this my phone only or is anyone else having troubles with Facebook and My World after recent upgrades?  Facebook is about the only app I use frequently and I would hate to not be able to use it ever again on my phone.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
    KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
    It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
    If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
    But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.

  • App disappeared prior to finishing download, can't access it

    In the middle of downloading facebook app, and the app just disappeared.  When I tried to download it again, it showed that it was already installed.  Can't use it or uninstall to download again.  Please help.  Thanks.

    - Have you tired using the Spotlight search to try to find it? Maybe you jjust can't find it.
    - Try a reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Facebook App - cant see friends friends

    I am unable to see my friends friends on Facebook. When a friends page loads I see the icon for friends but once the page fully loads the friends icon disappears. I have tried to logging off and logging back on. I have removed the Facebook app twice and re-installed it. Nothing seems to work. I am able to see my friends friends if I log in through the Internet but not through the blackberry app. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I tried going onto the Facebook Help Discussion forum but there doesn't seem to be a helpful answer. It would be nice if Facebook had an open discussion forum similar to Apple Discussions but it seems like they already have pre-established questions. I can't even send a message to their Help department.
    So I thought I'd give it a try on here to see if anyone can help...since there are "500 million" Facebook users out there and anyone who has a smartphone probably already has the Facebook app.

  • It is very difficult to navigate on facebook via safari. The IPAD does not allow other browsers to download and use it almost prevents the facebook app and the lack of scrolling the page.

    I also have problems with Facebook on my iPad 2. I don't do a lot with Facebook and generally only post on my feed page. Sometimes hitting return on the keyboard enters the comment, sometimes not. Sometimes the comment will show on my iPad but if I revisit that page I find that the comment has disappeared. So I'd say that Facebook and my iPad are not totally compatible with each other.
    I looked into Friendly and was about to purchase this free ap. But before I did I went to the Friendly web page for more info. There I found a page with users comments. One after another users complained about bugs with Friendly. The developers claimed a fix was coming but the user comments complained about the lack of response and support. One of the fixes suggested by the developers was to log out of Friendly then log back in. One user complained that doing this three times in ten minutes was not very helpful. Because of this I decided to avoid Friendly.
    I did find a Facebook developed ap but it was for the iPhone. I presume that iPhone aps will work on the iPad but I'll wait until Facebook releases an iPad compatible ap. If there is an ap developed by Facebook for the iPad that I missed please let me know.
