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

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 location services is already on as well as with my facebook apps, but still i am unable to check in. what's wrong? even with my maps, it always say location unavailable. help please.
- 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? -
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!

HT201472 Does location services have to be on for activation lock to work ?
Will activation lock work if location services is turned off ?
How does Activation Lock work?
When you enable Find My iPhone on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch running iOS 7, your Apple ID is securely stored on Apple’s activation servers and linked to your device. From that point on, your password will be required before anyone can turn off Find My iPhone on your device, erase your device, or reactivate and use your device.
Activation Lock is enabled automatically when you turn on Find My iPhone in iOS 7, or when you upgrade to iOS 7 from a previous version of iOS that has Find My iPhone already turned on.
To turn on Find My iPhone on your device:
Go to Settings.
Tap iCloud.
Sign in with your Apple ID, if necessary.
Turn on Find My iPhone.
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
iCloud: Activation Lock -
I do not find Airdrop logo on my iphone also the location services are locked and cannot be changed.
I am using an iPhone 5S 64GB 7.1.2 version installed.
I do not find Airdrop logo on my iphone also the location services is locked and cannot be changed.Have you tried a Reset: Hold down the home and sleep buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.
If that didn't work try a Restore from your backup in iTunes. If that fails Restore it as a new iPhone in iTunes.
And if all the above fail, you do not have an employer profile on your iPhone, and there are no Restrictions set, get it serviced. -
Location service active when iPhone 5 is locked?
Hey folks,
I'm trying to keep my iPhone 5 battery lasting as long as possible (I've noticed a huge dip in battery life since iOS 7). I've turned off most of my location services, but everytime I lock my iPhone, something is using my location as the location logo is next to my battery level. The logo vanishes when I unlock the phone.
Location services for weather is turned off and everything in my system services is turned off except Compass Calibration.
Does anyone have an idea what is using my location?
Thanks all!
Tom.I had this problem too. Passbook seems to be the culprit. Try looking over at:

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.

When you have location service on for camera when you post to facebook, instagram etc. can people find out were I took it?
Hey jerzeyzfynest,
Unfortuantely, no -- Geek Squad Protection plans require that repairs be sought before a product is considered for replacement. This means your current laptop would only qualify for an exchange if one or more of the following conditions are met:
A factory-authorized technician has determined that repairs cannot be completed
A factory-authorized technician has determined that replacement parts cannot be obtained
The unit has accrued two previous qualifying repairs a factory-authorized technician has identified a third qualifying hardware failure
A detailed overview of this policy may be found in your plan documentation, as well as in the sample brochure available on the following site:
http://bbyurl.us/TandC
If your current laptop hasn't been performing up to par, then I'd encourage you to speak with a technician at your local store when you have the chance to do so. Diagnostic services are included in your service plan coverage, so we'd be glad to help find out what's going on.

HT4995 if location services is on would it show on facebook my location
if location services is on would it show on facebook my location
Yes, this is one of the more annoying aspects of the 3G iPhone. I honestly don't understand why it keeps asking me each and every time if it's okay to use location services. If I turn it off then the answer should be NO every single time. If I need to use it then I'll turn it on. Just like turning off WiFi or 3G. WiFi has the option to "ask to join new network", and I keep it turned OFF so I don't get those annoying pop-ups. Wouldn't it make sense to do this for GPS as well?
GPS on my old Blackberry was great. It turned ON when I ran Google Maps, but automatically turned off once I shut down the program. Battery life was never compromised. -
