Facebook location services locked

Hi All,
For some reason my iPhone 5C stopped allowing location services. When I go to the settings within Facebook, where the choices are "Never", "When using app", or "Always", it is stuck on "Never". Any ideas how to get this to work? Thanks in advance for any help.
Dan

Option to consider:
Sign out of the app if possible
Delete it
Reset the phone
Re download the app

HT5594 location services - lost iphone

I can't find my iphone, how do I use "Location services" to locate it?

If you have set up Find My iPhone on your device (before losing it), here is a description of how to find it:

If you have not set up Find My iPhone, location services will not help you locate it.

Can't turn off location services on IPhone 4s.

Settings -> Location Services (Always ON) -> can't turn ON / OFF. It's disabled. I can't even turn ON / OFF location services for apps down below. They are all Off by default. Verified with colleague and it's working on his iphone 4s. Can't find solution anywhere on web.

Settings>General>Restrictions...are yours on? Allow Changes>Location>On/Off.

Disable facebook location services?

I cant seem to find this in IOS8. Its the biggest battery consumer on my phone and posts from just a few months ago say that it will check your location alot even when its not "open" so im looking to set it to only allow when the app is open or to turn it off completely. Anyone have any ideas for me?

Any idea why it would be sucking battery like theres no tomorow? It has higher consumption than home and lock screen which includes the screen power consumption doesnt it?
I havent used it much today as ive been on my pc yet the percentage is still pretty high.
As far as not being in the list, inside facebook app it says its on and even what ive turned location services off on still shows in that list just disabled.

My iphone 4S running IOS8.1.2 will not allow me to enable Location Services. Wherever I check it is "grayed out". advice?

Hey AUABB,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you're not able to enable Location Services on your iPhone 4s, first restart the device:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Next, try resetting the location settings on the device to factory default:
If you would like to reset all of your location settings to the factory default, go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Location & Privacy. When your location and privacy settings are reset, apps will stop using your location until you grant them permission.

If the Location Services option is still grayed out, you may need to back up your iPhone and restore the iOS software using iTunes:

All the best,

Cannot enable location services on any of my home devices. Restrictions disabled. Field greyed out.

Hi,
Can anyone help me with this problem?
I have "family mode" (or something like that) enabled. Restrictions are off on all my devices. The location services option is off, and I cannot turn it on, on any of my devices.
Thanks very much,
B.

Hi bfbbrown,
From your post it seems that you are unable to access location services on your device. I have linked to an article that can help with location services settings. You may want to review your Privacy and Permission settings:

Location services wont work on my iphone 4, when up dating facebook status doesn't say "nearyby" how do i get it to work?

need help! location services arrow wont turn purple and everything is on !

The password is set on the WiFi router providing the service, by the owner of the network to prevent unwanted "guests" accessing the network. The only way to know it is to ask the owner permission to use the network. Otherwise, you have to find a free WiFi hotspot that doesn't require a password.

I have upgraded my iPhone 5 with iOS 7 and I can´t turn on location services. I have already twice restored the instalation of iOS 7 but no change. This should be the improvement of the apple software? Has anybody similar problem?

I have upgraded my iPhone 5 with iOS7 and I can´t turn on location services. I have already restored the instalation of oOS 7 twice but no change. This should be the improvement of apple software? Does anybody have similar problem? Do you know how to solve it?

A workaround is to reinstall lazy apps, mostly for those that were restored but don't appear on notification center, eg. Whatsapp. In my case I have more than 500 apps installed.
We need a correct solution for this problem.
I also had this problem on the past moving from 4s to 5.
And now from 5 to 5s.
The only notifications working after restore in my iPhone are those from Facebook.

Facebook's location services are off..?!

Ok I just updated my iPhone 4S and all of the sudden Facebook's "location services are turned off". It tells me to fix it in the settings but I can't find anything about locations... HELP PLEASE?!

Go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services. Here you can control if Location Services are turned on or off, and you can control individual apps' ability to use Location Services. You can also enable/disable Find my iPhone. Hope this helps!

I just bought an iPhone 4S 3 days ago, but its battery seems to lose 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tuned off some location services, bluetooth, and even siri, and made its settings similar to my two-year old iPhone 4. The 4S can last much shorter.

I am having the exact same problem with my iphone 5.
I took it back to the Apple store 2 days ago and they gave me a new one, but they told me not to restore it from backup cos if something (an app) is corrupted it will happen again. The only thing they could keep was my contacts cos they did something there that allowed them to transfer them to the new phone. I went home, and downloaded only ONE app (facebook), and guess what - THE PROBLEM IS STILL OCCURING ON THE BRAND NEW PHONE! It is driving me insane as I cant get through the day without my phone.
Really hoping someone has a fix that will work

Why isn't the Facebook app appearing in my Location Services

I am an iPhone 4 user with the most recent iOS update. I frequently use the Facebook application. As of recently I am unable to upload new photos. The status bar reads complete, however, nothing happens. I was told to check my Location Services to verify I had it turned on for the FB app, however, upon doing this I realized the application no longer even shows up as an option within the Location Services. I'm guessing this to be part of the issue, however, I have zero clue as to why it no longer shows up period vs just having it accidentally switched off. Anyone have knowledge on how to fix this by chance?

delete the facebook app,from your phone,and then re-install it from the app store,try that,might work.it did for me.
