Facebook has stopped responding on my Macbook Pro

I regularly visit my Facebook account via Safari on my iMac and Macbook Pro. 
When using the iMac I can still enter information into Facebook and browse as I wish.  Until yesterday I could also do the same on my Macbook Pro, but now, although I can still open Facebook and read the posts on it, therer is no response if I try to make any inputs.
Help please!  Does anyone have a fix for this issue?

I have the exact same problem.  I started having the problem with MS Office 2008 after I installed a new harddrive in my imac (24-inch, Early 2009), OS X 10.8.4.  Everything was working fine and then when I try to open any Office app, the icon bounces in the dock, and nothing happens.
I as searched for solutions, the obvious fix was to uninstall office (even all of the excess system files it leaves even after an uninstall).  When I a re-install Office 2008, it works for about 1 week and then it stops working again.
Next I thought to try the new version of Office (Office 2011), so I did the trial download, and sure enough got the same problem.  After about 2 weeks, it stopped responding.  I have talked to MS support about this problem, and their suggestion was to uninstall and then reinstall, which I am becoming an expert at.
I am also having an issue with Apple Mail and contacts becoming disconnected.  When created a new mail, typing in the receiptant does not pull up their email address even though it is in my address book.  The fix for this, which I do even other day is to delete a system folder in Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  I do that, and it works for a few days.
Any suggestions would be great.

  • HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3

    HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3.  When I purchased the monitor a few weeks ago it worked perfectly when computer was in clamshell mode or with lid open. Now external display has stopped working.  When I turn on display it scans for signal but does not find it and then immediately goes into sleep mode.  I am using a DVI connection with the adapter for the mini display plug.  REALLY FRUSTRATING. Any help would be extremely appreciated. 

    Hi lancekatigbak,
    If you're having issues with the display out on your MacBook Pro, you may want to take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the following article:

  • The dash key has stopped working on my macbook pro

    help!!the dash key has stopped working on my macbook pro mid 2010 and its amazing how much i need to use it has anyone else had this problem with keys and would they be able to fix it at the genius bar at my apple store

    Well if you took it completely apart and couldn't get it to work by operating the silicone "cone" then the trace or contactor must be corroded or discontinuous. The only repair is to replace the keyboard. Sorry.

  • My external hard drive has stopped working on my MacBook Pro

    Hi guys,
    So my hard drive, which was working earlier today, no longer registers when I plug it into my Mac. It flashes once and then stops, and it does not appear anywhere on my laptop. It still works in other laptops so I know it is not dead and other USB drives etc still register on my laptop.
    I have read through the other discussions but nothing quite fits my situation. If anyone has any sort of information or advice that may help, I would very much appreciate it! Thank you.

    Basically my external hard drive would not eject so i force quit it and the hard drive does not come up at all anywhere on my mac pro OS X version 10.9.4 and it isn't visible in disk utilities no and it doesn't say format either and i have tried it on a windows computer it does not show on their either. the format is Fatdos i think so i can use it on windows and mac and i cant see anything in system reports and yes it is connect by a USB. also it isn't making any noises either

  • Mail has stopped working on my macbook pro but it works on hand held devices

    All my other email accounts still work. I can neither send nor receive out of Mail.

    1. open up mail go to Window, and open "connection Doctor" and let us know what it says. note also open Activity and you will see the progress.
    2. Re-check all your account information under mail, preferences and try the link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1277, to ensure its all entered correctly.
    3. is the issue with icloud account or a 3rd party?

  • My external hard drive (Seagate backup plus) has stopped working on my macbook 10.8.5

    I've been using Seagate Backup Plus for a year now and suddenly it has stopped working on my Macbook Pro (mountain lion 10.8.5). When I plug it in, it lights up and I can hear it running, but it won't show on my macbook. I've checked on Disk Utility but it won't recognise the hard drive. I also tried going on Terminal to see if my hard drive is listed by putting "diskutil list", and it's not. I also make sure that external hard drives are visible on Finder. Since my hard drive is on NTFS format, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the NTFS drive, and still it won't work.
    My hard drive is working perfectly on other devices and PCs so I'm sure the problem is on my macbook. Usb ports of my macbook are also working perfectly.
    Please help. Thanks.

    Open Disk Utility (Applications>Utilities folder) and format the disk as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition. Your Mac should see the drive and you should be able to use if for backups, storage, etc.

  • Why has my USB Superdrive suddenly stopped working with my MacBook Pro?

    Why has my Apple USB SuperDrive suddenly stopped working with my MacBook Pro?
    Normally I plug it in and insert a CD or DVD and it is immediately recognised, but today it took the DVD, made a 'whirring' noise for a few seconds and then stopped without being recognised.

  • My Macbook built-in keyboard has stopped responding, (even caps lock light does not come on). What can I do as cannot even login to computer?

    My Macbook built-in keyboard has stopped responding, (even caps lock light does not come on). What can I do as cannot even login to computer?
    There has been no spillage and it has not been dropped.

    Do you have access to a USB wired Apple (or maybe even a PC) keyboard?
    That may be used to help troubleshoot the internal keyboard and on startup
    be able to access (or see if you can) the System, and attempt to see about
    troubleshooting. See if it will start in SafeBoot, (shift key held down just after
    startup tone, if it runs in safeboot, then login to see if you can read system
    logs in Console) and another idea may be to attempt to start in Recovery &
    then attempt to use OS X Utilities there to see if you can verify and then to
    repair the hard disk drive, and do some checks on the hardware.
    •Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support
    Was the computer an Apple official refurbished unit bought direct from Apple?
    Did you get an extended warranty from Apple - if it were directly bought there?
    Usually these are online purchases from Apple Store; other companies offer
    repaired or restored used computers and call them 'refurbished' or they may
    have bought actual refurbished from Apple stock; these may be resold on ebay
    or via amazon, and may or may not have a residual warranty of some kind.
    In some cases the keyboard may fail due to some connection on the logic board
    not fitting correctly, or some other loose wire; however if the battery may have
    swollen, that could contribute to issues with both trackpad and keyboard.
    A visit to an authorized Apple service provider is recommended, or contact the
    seller you bought yours from to ask if they may offer suggestions or perhaps a
    discount on diagnostic + repair if there is no warranty on the product.
    Find an Apple Authorized Service Provider

    Without more information, you may have to look into your local consumer
    protection laws to see if your area may allow you more than others when
    it comes to problems with electronics. If in the EU or UK, it may be longer.
    You could contact a nearby Apple Store with Genius bar for advice...

  • I've only had my iphone 5s for a week. I keep getting an error message of "Server has stopped responding."  I need the server to work. Does anyone know if there is a "fix" for the problem? Other wise, I probably best return for a refund and get a Samsung.

    Unlikely.  Based on the complete lack of detail of the issue provided it is entirely possible the same issue would occur.
    Unless and until the user provides some actual details of the problem, there is nothing the indicate that the issue is with the iPhone.

    Hi Rachel,
    Have you tried reinstalling Microsoft Word? Have you tried reinstalling Office? Have you run any updates recently for Microsoft Office? There was one that came out this week. You may wish to ask this question over at the Microsoft Word forums, there's a good chance you'll get a better answer as well. This forum is primarily designed for the MacBook Air hardware and interoperability with OS X on a MacBook Air.
