Facebook App - tiny mainscreen icon - What Is It??

Hi.
I have constantly had a '7' by the tiny 3 pixel Facebook icon next to the clock on my main front screen.
I have checked and there are no notifications for me.
I have uninstalled the app, then reinstalled it, and now I have a '5' by the icon. With still no notifications.
What the heck is that icon, and if poss, how do I switch it off?
Solved!

Sorry to sound dumb, but do you mean look in my Messages folder on Facebook via my Phone, or via a PC?
Or does it not matter?
No, your main Messages folder ON your BlackBerry. If you check your BlackBerry email by looking at a folder named by your email address... then find the one name Messages. Scroll though it, find the messages and delete them, or read them etc.

I can assure you , based on PC usage, I have no messages unread, as if there were, it would say so on the web site via my pc.
I don't think you should be so sure. Yet.

TS1702 My Facebook app froze so I deleted the app and reinstalled it. I've done this before with no problem in the past, but this time it says Facebook is installed, but there's no icon on my iPad. I can't delete it again because there is no icon. HELP!

My Facebook app froze so I deleted it and reinstalled it. I've done this several times in the past with no problems. This time, the app store says it's installed, but there is no icon. I can't delete it again, because there is no icon to delete and the app store has it listed as installed. The updates page says it is updated. I have shut my iPad down completely and restarted with no luck. I don't know what else to try. Suggestions?

Try resetting your device. Hold down the power button and the Home button on your iPad, ignore the slide to power off message, continue to hold both buttons until you see the white Apple logo. After it restarts try download the Facebook app again.

Try closing the Facebook app completely and see if it works ok when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Facebook app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Facebook app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Please help. My facebook app will not open on my iphone 4. I deleted it,numerous times and downloaded it again. It uploads, but when you click on the icon, it flickers then closes. Help.

Help.

Then the next step would be to restore your phone. My advice is that prior to restoring you import your photos and videos to your computer and back up your contacts (by syncing them with iCloud or to a supported program on your computer using iTunes) as a number of users report losing these when restoring their device.

Facebook app crashes as soon as i open it on my iphone.What to do tried reinstalling still the same. What to do??? I am using iphone5

My facebook app crashes as i open it. I ave rebootes the system on my iphone still no use. I also uninstalled the app and put a new one but its the same. Please advice . Using iphone 5 Nd ios7.0.3

doesn't matter what iphone you have, the issue isn't your phone, but with facebook, either contact the app devloper or look at their support site to troubleshoot. Or leave them a review stating your issue.

Hi there, harleygirl.
A look around the internet and my previous knowledge indicates this is not an issue with firefox, but with how the server that the app is run on is incorrectly configured. To test this, please install an old version of firefox. You can download an older version from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html then try to visit the website again. Please let us know if it turns out that it works with version 3.6

- The iPod uses the location of a nerby or connected router to determine it location based on a database of routers and their location. It appears that the routers near y are not in Appl'es database. As of yet, nobody here seems to know how to get routers added to the database.
- If you go to Strtbucks. McDonalds or another networks does the location show in the Maps app?

I don't play any Facbook games, but I'm assuming that they are played using your browser (Safari, Firefox, etc.).

I agree- I apologize if I sounded skeptical and attacking. In no way did I mean it to sound that way.
I completely agree on the software-hardware combo issue- this is why apple killed off 1G and 2G devices- because newer software revisions would never ever run well if at all on such ancient devices. can you imagine running iOS 6 on an iPhone/iPod touch 1G? That would be terrible. Let alone iOS 3 runs terrible on them and now are generally rendered useless due to newer App Store requirements (most require 4.3+ now to allow apple to kill off the older devices). forcing newer software on older hardware (apple, dell, HP,... Anything electronic this definitely applies to) will almost always yield less-than-par results. The other part is apple forcing you to upgrade by means of intentially making things obsolete. all companies do that.
All of this factual info aside, the issue at hand with the 5 is not a software-hardware combo problem- those are most widely seen with the major revisions. then again, this isn't the first time apple has gotten caught up in battery drain snafus (even iOS 5 was plagued with this as well- and now there are some people desperate to roll back but can't). it basically waters it down to the point where keeping the stock software will always yield the best results even though newer versions provide better features- it all depends on whether or not the person deems the added features are worth a performance hit.
PS. I'm still at 100%- and I've been using it periodically throughout the day. your combo worked for you, but didn't for me. And may or may not work for others- As the tech world would say, mileage may vary.
PSS. What model/carrier do you have? Just wondering.

Are you on WiFi or 3G? If WiFi, when I've had this happen, first I go to Settings & turn WiFi off. Wait a minute, then turn it back on. Usually fixes things.

I cannot open my facebook app and it happened after an updating process but I don't know what really happened and even don't know what update was it. Please help me with this. Thanks

I cannot open facebook app in my iphone4 and it happened after going through an updating process. But I don't know what did I update it to. I've tried deleting and re installing but still doesn't work. Please help me. Thanks

Something has gone wrong. Force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

I've got it working on mine by downloading the old facebook app version 4.0.1 from the following link. In iTunes, go to file menu, select add file to library and add the downloaded ipa file and facebook will appear in the apps screen. next sync will then put facebook on your iphone 3G.

Why Facebook app icon won't open?

Why Facebook app icon won't open? Just gives me a blank page

I believe that i've had this problem before, either restart your iMac, or un-download the app and remove the app icon from your dashboard and then re-download it.

The Facebook app icon has a red circle with a number that increases wiyh each phone call. How do I clear that's?

The Facebook app - or do you mean the Facetime app? The Facetime app will show all of the incoming phone calls if you are using the iPad for iPhone Cellular Calls. Settings>Facetime>iPhone Cellular Calls>On.
