Facebook app won't connect

The Facebook app always throws an error "Your login information for account [email address] has changed or is incorrect. Update your login info and try again" -- however the email and password are *definitely* correct, I've actually logged into Fb from a computer and checked. Any suggestions?
Really not having a good experience with the Z10 so far

Thanks for the suggestion.
(a) what an insanely stupid place to hide what I assume are the most commonly downloaded apps.
(b) Yup, no Gmail.
(c) A Facebook app, with no way of telling whether it's more up to date than the one it came with (surely not, why would you ship a device with unpatched software? Even Microsoft stopped doing that in 2003...)
(d) Tapping "open" just starts the already-installed, known-broken app.
(e) Now I'm even more confused. Is "BlackBerry World" not some sort of appstore, then, but a really convoluted program manager for running stuff already installed?
(f) that reminds me of another grouse; there's no obvious way to get rid of the preinstalled crapware cluttering up the 3(!) screens of mostly junk apps. I'm sure there's a way to do it, and I'll figure it out (or google it up) in the end, but isn't it obvious how to do it?

  • My facebook app won't let me get in.  It is asking for my password and then it says it cannot connect to server.  need help

  • The Facebook app won't let me sign on with my account. I can sign on to another account just fine. Will not let me sign on through Safari or Google either. When I put in email and password it goes right back to the log in page. Help?

    On my iPhone 4, the Facebook app won't let me sign on with my account. I can sign on to another account just fine. The first time I sign on with the FB app it goes to the news feed page, says loading, and then flipps between loading and connection error.  If I close out of that and try to sign in again it locks up on the logging in page.  From Safari or google it goes to the log in page, after entering my email and password it goes right back to the log in page.  I have tried resetting my phone, deleting and re-installing the app and everything else I can think of.  Since I can log onto another account on my phone it can't be the app, any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

    Sounds like a hard reset is in order...

  • Updated to iOS 8, now Facebook app won't open

    I have an iPhone 5c. After doing the update, my Facebook app won't stay open. What to do?

    Hello there FAB54evr,
    It sounds like your iPad is constantly losing connection to your cellular data service. I recommend the troubleshooting in the following article named:
    Get help with the cellular data connection on your iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular Model)
    Tap Settings and make sure that Cellular Data is turned on. Turn Cellular Data off, then back on again.
    Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to open the Control Center. Tap the airplane icon to turn airplane mode on. Wait three seconds, then turn it off.
    Restart your iPad.
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Update your iPad with the latest version of iOS.
    Remove the SIM card, then insert it again.
    If your SIM card uses a SIM PIN, tap Settings > Cellular Data and turn SIM PIN off.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    If you have another SIM card with a valid cellular data account, remove the SIM card from your iPad and insert the other SIM card. If the cellular data connection works with the other SIM card, contact your carrier to report the issue.
    Try another location. If the cellular data connection works in another area but not in the first location you tried, contact your carrier to report the issue.
    Restore your iPad as new.
    If you still can't connect to or use a cellular data network, contact your carrier, make a reservation at a Genius Bar, or contact AppleCare for more help.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • I installed iOs7 on iPad 2 and now when i'm in iBooks and tap "store" i get a blank screen.  Same thing in itunes, itunes u, app store, and a few other apps won't connect.  Safari seems to be working fine.

    I installed iOs7 on iPad 2 and now when i'm in iBooks and tap "store" i get a blank screen.  Same thing in itunes, itunes u, app store, and a few other apps won't connect.  Safari seems to be working fine.

    I had this same problem.  Tried everything the internet said including a full restore.  Which was terrible.  Nothing worked until.....go to general...reset....reset all settings.
    You had to go back in and reset anything you customized afterwards, however it does not allow the store to load.  Thanks! 

  • Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect

    Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect to the Internet. Software Update fails with a suggestion of running Network Diagnostic. Network diagnostic says everything is fine. Firefox connects without any problems. Any ideas. This is my work computer and I need it to work.

    Fixed it myself. Under network settings "Auto Proxy Discovery" was enabled. When I turned this off everything started working again. Not sure how this was enabled in the first place.

  • One of my apps won't connect since OS upgrade

    My Wi-Fi connection seems to be working fine - I can access the web through the browser.  But my crossword puzzle app won't let me login.  I get "Error - Cannot connect, please try again later." 
    My "File Sharing" and "Wi-Fi Sharing" settings are both set to "On".  My application permissions are all set to "Allowed".
    I tried tech support at Magmic, but they said, "Your subscription is current and everything is good to go on our end."  Is there anyone here that can help me?

    The App likely requires a Wifi connection in order to work.  Are you connected to a local Wi-Fi network?  Can you access the web via the Safari App?

  • My ipod's apps won't connect to the internet.

    the apps on my ipod touch 5 won't connect to the internet anymore, even apps from apple like the appstore. only safari works, but with some sites it says there is no safe connection(like with twitter). but it does work with google
    how can i get rid of this problem?
    my ipod runs 7.0.2 and i checked for software updates, there were none. i also checked for app updates but as i said the app store doesn't connect with the internet either.

    Does it have this problem wehn connect to another network?
    Did the iOS device connect OK before to this network?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    look at the setting for the fouter, mayne those sites are being blocked.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Some Apps won't connect to the internet

    Dear All:
    I am having some strange behavior. Some of my Apps will not connect to the internet, while others have no problem. Sometimes this happens for a few days and then things are all right, and then it starts again.
    Today, for example, the Google Mail App, says that it can't connect to the internet and to retry. Retrying doesn't help. I removed and reinstalled the App and it didn't help.
    If I go to gmail.com on Safari, I have no problem.
    There are other Apps like this, that won't work from the desktop, but do work from Safari.
    So I assume that there is some different way Safari and Apps go to the internet. I have no firewalls on my modem.
    If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate hearing.
    Thank you.

    Try resetting your network settings.

  • Network error occurred in facebook app under wifi connection.

    I tried all the method such as reinstalling, hard reseting. But it doesn't work. Facebook app works perfectly under 3G connection.

    A little more information please? Like what are you trying to build? When does the error appear? What exactly is in the error description? Are you sure all the source files reside where the build file says they are?

  • Facebook app won't work.

    I just got my phone a few days ago. I download the facebook app today and it says that i'm on a service plan that does not support that application, but I have the Blackberry Social add-on.

    Hey mell1992xox,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Are you able to access Facebook Mobile from the browser?  Also who is your provider?

  • Facebook app won't open, it just goes to the blue page then closes again

    I click to open the Facebook app and it opens to the initial blue Facebook page, but then it just closes again. It does this every time I try to open it an I've tried turning off then restarting my iPod.

    Additionally, the settings app fails whenever I try to view usage information, and the voicemail no longer functions as before.  It now prompts for a password because it is dialing out to Verizon which it never did before.  Any feedback on these issues will be appreciated as well.

  • Native You Tube app won't connect after 5.0.1 update

    Since updating to 5.0.1, native You Tube app will not connect (error msg: "Cannot connect to You Tube"). Have re-synced, restored, cold rebooted, etc. - to no effect. No Restrictions set in Settings. 3G/WiFi connection make no difference. Can access youtube.com on Safari app. Any other ideas as to what happened to native YT app or what can be done to fix? Thx!

    I am having the same problem. Siri was pretty functional (but not amazing) from the date I first got my iPhone4s in October. But since the latest update she is completely worthless! She cannot do anything, even simple recognition of my Contacts that was previously a breeze. I'll even say "Call John Smith" (for example) and she'll say, "I'm sorry, I cannot find 'John Smith' in your Contacts, but I found these Contacts," and it will then display "John Smith." Are you kidding me?
    It's like having a conversation with my actual girlfriends now. Fail... I've called Apple tech support each of the last 5 nights but each time the wait is HUGE and I hang up after about 10-15 minutes. Seems like a lot of folks are keeping the lines busy - could be because of this issue.

  • Facebook app won't open after update

    I have an iPhone 4 iOS 5.1.1 and after I did an update to my Facebook app thru the app store it wont open anymore. When I tap the Facebook app it looks like its going to open but after a couple of seconds it goes back to my home screen. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it numerous times, did a reboot several times, deleted it from the bottom tray after double clicking the home key (circle button) and even tried tried installing several new apps but NOTHING works. Please help!

    My facebook app is doing the exact same thing.  I installed all of the updates from the app store notifications last night.  Afterward, the facebook app will start to open and then close.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and also rebooted the phone.  Nothing is helping.  Any other suggestions?
