Facebook Chat problems

I have just notice tonight that when I was talk to people through the text/messaging app and then suddenly everyone would be offline then then after then going then offline the then online it would fix it for a second then do the same thing.

Hi jojo100232,
Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
This may be caused by unreliable internet connection or a connection issue/lag with the Facebook chat itself. Usually the issue solves itself after a while, for a quick fix you can just set your chat status to offline and then back online like you have been doing. If this tends to happen a lot, we would recommend that you test it with your mobile data connection and WiFi to see if there is any difference in the chat reliability.
Hope this helps!

Issues with Facebook; Chat window problems; can't minimize window , and send chat as message when one receiver logs off.

While using Firefox I have an 2 issues with Facebook chat. 1. Cannot minimize (-) the chat window, only close it (x). When the receiver in chat logs off and a message didn't go through- the option to "send message as email" doesn't work. These have been ongoing problems for several months. I don't have these issues when I use Safari.

Problems with Facebook Chat.

Over the last week I have found it increasingly difficult to go on Facebook Chat. I keep getting a 6004 notification to switch on F/B notifications which I have. After that it fails to connect. I know my reception is fine as I can connect to everything else that requiers my data services switched on & have the most up to date software installed. I have tried a reboot. Has anyone any ideas?

I'm not aware of any outages that would affect facebook chat.
If a reboot has not solved the problem, go ahead with an uninstall then reinstall it once again. Once you've deleted it from your Applications list, you can get it back from App World or from www.blackberry.com/facebook on your phone's browser.
Let us know if that helps you.

Hi lumiakdb
Thank you for posting and welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
Kindly try with the following troubleshooting steps.
Configure your Microsoft account.
Try with WLAN once. This issue may be due to low speed network.
Also, check with the following:
- Login to Facebook (via PC browser) > Account settings > Apps > Make sure you can see the Microsoft is available in the applications.
If the application is not available, try with the following:
- Login to Microsoft Account > Home > Messenger Social > Add > Facebook
If still the issue persists; kindly re- configure Facebook and try.
Also, make sure that your Facebook account is linked with your Microsoft account by following the steps below (PC browser):
1. Log in to Microsoft account; https://account.live.com
2. Click on Account Settings (from the upper right corner)
3. On the left panel click on Permissions and select Manage accounts.
4. Choose Add an Account and select Facebook.
5. Log in with your Facebook account.
Make sure that the Facebook Chat is enabled in the Messaging Settings as it is disabled by default. Start>Messaging>Online>ellipsis>Settings>Facebook Chat>On.

Using Firefox to access facebook chat Button or online friiend chat button generates a Black screen with CANNOT LOAD IMAGES and no chat window opens.

This does not happen in other browsers and it happens on a variety of computers I have access to and would seem to be a common problem but I can find no identical cases in my searches of
Firefox , Facebook or windows help or Google search. My home machine is only a P2 with WINXPCORP but works fine and I have done all updates but still have this continuing problem every time I try to use Firefox
to access Facebook chat but it does not happen with IE or chrome
The response to clicking on chat button or friend chat is a black screen with small center square box with blue title bar that says
'' VIEW IMAGE FULL SCREEN - (42) FACEBOOK X""
center of box is ""! "" mark in yellow triangle and wording
"" CANNOT LOAD IMAGES ''' OK
clicking on OK returns to facebook page but no chat opens.
Some times |VERY RARLEY if as the page loades you click on
chat button with 1/2 second of it appearing chat will open.

Hi,

Gmail drop-down menus (Move to, Labels) and emails and Facebook chat will not open.

I am unable to open emails in standard Gmail. Emails can be opened after switching to the basic html version. I am also unable to use the drop-down menus, such as "Move to" or "Labels." The button turns gray, but the options do not appear.
Facebook chat is giving me a similar problem. When I click "Chat" in the bottom left, it acts as though it's trying to load but does not open up to reveal friends.
I have tried the following: deleting cookies, reinstalling Java, updating my vid card drivers, and uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox
Scans for viruses and spyware have yielded no results. I use AVG, Spybot, and Malwarebytes. The Gmail emails and menus will open in IE8.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

Facebook chat not available -- Yahoo redirect to password sign-in page

Facebook chat is "unavailable" -- getting a triangle with an exclamation point. In my Yahoo e-mail account I can do nothing but view my e-mails. Any attempt to open an attachment (a pic sent from my phone), clicking on "mail options," sending a help request e-mail to Yahoo, writing an e-mail -- basically anything I do -- sends me to the password sign-in page. Could not log into another e-mail account at Road Runner. Page just flipped crazily back & forth between loading & "read message." However, none of this happens if I use Internet Explorer; everything works fine there. Problem started two days ago. I do not believe I did anything, downloaded anything, nor changed anything right before this happened. Been told by internet carrier to un-install Firefox and re-install. Not opposed to doing this, but will that solve the problem? I sure don't want it to happen again. I have a main password for Firefox and a few other passwords saved. Laptop, running Windows Vista. Anti-virus program is AVG (full paid version). Have disabled some AVG items (tool bar, link-something-or-other) per help suggestions on Firefox site, and this has worked fine for nearly 2 months.

My video call icon on facebook chat has disappeared since upgrading to mavericks, any ideas anyone?

Since upgrading to Mavericks about a month ago, my video chat icon has disappeared from Facebook chat - I can't think of any other reason for this problem other than the upgrade to Mavericks. Any ideas anyone?

I'm also dealing with some slowness since moving to Mavericks — but mainly with regard to long lag times with the Finder when I go to rename files, move files, or delete files.
Could it be any of the following? (which came up red)

Facebook chat in OS X Messages shows numbers instead of names

Though I have used Facebook chat in iChat and now OS X's Messages programs for many years now with few issues (some disconnecting issues here and there but that's about it) The past few days I have encountered a problem that I can't figure out how to fix.
Whenever I first launch Messages and it logs me into FB chat, the names of my friends show up correctly for a handful of seconds. Then, suddenly all of the names and pictures disappear and instead turn into numbers (those aren't the actual numbers, just examples of what it looks like.) So my buddy/friends list becomes populated with all of these numbers and I can't tell who is who.
If I quit Messages and relaunch it, again I will see the proper names of my friends for a handful of seconds after logging in, but it always turns right back into a bunch of numbers.
I'm thinking this MUST be a server problem since not a single thing has changed on my computer.
Anyone else experiencing the same thing? Can anyone help?
Thank you.

HI,
I missed this thread as it was not tagged with the Messages Category.
However I have read most of the other threads in Mountain Lion and the iChat Communities on this issue.
I have read that it does not appear to effect Adium but has been reported effecting other Jabber Client app.
It is effecting both Messages in Mountain Lion and iChat in earlier versions of the OS.
It does appear to be a Facebook issue as the Buddy list will display User IDs unless linked to an Address Card when it will display the "Real Name" in your Address Book.
Obviously the numbers are linked to the Jabber IDs at Facebook (Any account with "Chat" enabled) but are not actually Jabber IDs as you lose the Buddy icon replaced with the generic Head and Shoulders icon.
I have asked the Hosts to remove pics in some posts that contain snapshots of the issue.
Although the issue is not Apple's there are considerations about whether they are seen to be assisting in posting Facebook users info.

Facebook chat - sending messages to offline contact

Whenever I am writing something to a Facebook contact via Skype, and this person happens to go offline, even if it is just for a minute, the Skype window prohibits me from typing anything else as it changes to the "x is offline. Send SMS" window immediately. Also, there is no way to access what I have already typed till the contact in question comes back online. As this is terribly frustrating, I am wondering if there is a way to turn this off by changing some sort of setting, or whether this could be fixed in an upgrade or so. It of course shouldn't be an issue as Facebook itself allows offline messaging too. A lot of my contacts actually just get on Facebook chat whenever I send them a message. I encounter the described problem about twice a day in average. Thanks a lot!!

Common, it's a basic feature of any chat client. Some my facebook friends are invisible but still chat, however Skype consider they're offline and I cannot send message to them from Skype desktop. Please allowed us to send message to FB offline contacts (in fact, they're really online, just invisible / turn off Chat status).

Hi,
Although I don't have a Facebook I d have 3 other Jabber accounts logged in.
One is from Google and the others are from other Jabber servers.
My Google settings look like this,
Most Jabber server need SSL and the App will automatically make this port 5223.
However Google will let you change theirs to use port 443.
One of the other 2 is using "Automatically find Port and Server" and is using port 5222 and No SSL.
Whilst most will use SSL and port 5223 it is not true for every Jabber server.
I can never remember if the Facebook chat ID is @facebook.chat.com or @chat.facebook.com (I suspect the second)
You are using the Chat ID and not your regular Facebook ID ?
I can't follow the iChat link on this page as I can't log in
https://en-gb.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php
I would check the set up page but if that does not work I would work through all the settings possibles with the SSL, Ports, warn on insecure passwords etc.

Facebook Chat Not Working Properly For iPhone 4

I recently bought the iPhone for, and am having a pretty annoying problem with the Facebook App.
So, in my Facebook, I have a group for my friends (one group). Now, when I'm on chat for my iPhone, I can not see ANY of those friends in the group online.
I read around a bit, and was advised to try unticking the group, so all my friends were shown in one list.
Did that, but still no luck..can't see people from that original group online.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance!

I've now gone as far as DELETING the list. So now, while on the computer, and under Facebook chat, ALL my friends appear under the same list.
Still have the same problem; can't see the friends from the old list when using my iPhone.
