Facebook Messenger for Firefox can't connect to Facebook even when I'm logged in

Facebook Messenger for Firefox isn't working on my machine. It always says it can't connect to Facebook even if I'm logged in.

EDIT:<br />
There is a bug about this and that Facebook is working on it.

Facebook messenger for Firefox doesn't show the chat tab

Hi. I have just installed Facebook messenger for Firefox, which was advertised in the Firefox start page. Here's the link for it: https://www.facebook.com/about/messenger-for-firefox?src=firefox_promo_2
I don't like the sidebar taking a chunk from my screen space, so I unchecked "show sidebar", and the only things left were a small tab on the botom right corner on the screen, which you could click to expand and show your friends, much like Facebook chat when you don't have the sidebar active. But for some reason it's gone now and I can't find how to activate it again. The chat still works, if someone talks to me their chat tab will appear even when I don't have any Facebook tabs open; just the friends list tab is gone. How do I make it return?
Thank you!

Hmmm, apparently it integrates in a new way. You can try using either of these menu items to turn on the sidebar:
Firefox > Options > Facebook Messenger for Firefox
Tools > Facebook Messenger for Firefox (a sub-menu appears when enabled)
Then when you turn it off again, you get the sidebar-style list in the page. That doesn't seem to last forever; it might take some time to work out exactly how the feature works with the site.

Mac OS X can't connect to HomeHub, even when HomeH...

Okay, Basically My macbook is the second laptop using our family HomeHub. what happens is that I'm normally using the internet, when the signal suddenly drops, and restarting the HomeHub is the only way I can connect to the network. There are no problems I can see with the Hub, and when I try and connect via selecting the network from the list, the connection 'times out' every time I click 'connect'. If I go through 'network preferences' it tells me there's probably something wrong with the information I have given, when I know it's all correct.
This is driving me up the wall - please can someone help??

Hi Guys,
I actually came across a problem like this last night where the wrong IP address was showing in the hub for the MAC. Factory reset seemed to sort it out so i'd give that a try, you can find the button on the side of the hub, you'll need a pin or something to get at it. Hold down for about 10-15 seconds and try again.
If you have Broadband Talk handsets registered you'll have to hook these back up again.
Let me know how you get on.

I can't connect to Facebook, it doesn't even register the site, and I can't even ping it in CMD?

I can't connect to Facebook. I could this morning, but suddenly I can't anymore. It tries to load, and then says "The connection has timed out".
I also can't connect with Internet Explorer. However, I can connect with Firefox, or IE from other computer (Other computer also has other internet provider).
I can connect to any other site on the web, like I am now on Mozzila support.
When I go to run, CMD, and type "ping www.facebook.com" it also says "Request timed out", and 4 packets lost. When I ping it, I get "star.c10r.facebook.com [31.13.64.65]". When I search for that IP i get "Facebook Ireland Ltd".
When I do same ping on my other computer (and other internet provider) he pings "star.c10r.facebook.com [179.60.192.3]" and pings correctly. From that other computer I also can't ping first IP (31.13...), but from first computer (on which I can't go to Facebook site) I can ping second ping (179...) correctly, but I need to type it in manually. When I just type "ping www.facebook.com" it gives me that first IP that doesn't work (31...).
Why does it happen, and why do I get different IP's when I type "ping www.facebook.com"?
Any idea how to fix it?

Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
* Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
* Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
'''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configure-firewalls-so-firefox-can-access-internet Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.]''' {web link}
Type '''about:preferences#advanced'''<Enter> in the address bar.
Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''Network.'''
Look for '''Configure How Firefox Connects''' and press the '''Settings''' button.
Check the settings.
Contact your ISP and have them check your service.

I downloaded version 3.6.12 and now Firefox can't connect to websites

I had version 3.6.9 installed, then I downloaded version 3.6.12 and now Firefox can't connect to websites. It says "Unable to connect." I followed all the instructions on the help page about checking my firewall and removing then re-adding Firefox to the list of safe programs, but it still won't work. Is there any way I can re-download version 3.6.9? Or does anyone know what else I can try?

I found my problem. I had an expired version of Norton Internet Security that didn't uninstall properly, but I was able to remove it with the Norton Removal Tool and now Firefox works.

Can't connect to facebook from candy crush using my iphone 5?

can't connect to facebook from candy crush using my iphone 5

Returned home only to find the same situation with my home network. Much time on chat support with Apple. Short story long: Must have been corrupted software. Had to restore original original software then add back apps and music. Couldn't back up before doing the restore so I lost a bunch of pics, but at least the phone is working once again.

Anyone else having this issue? Worked great in snow leopard. Updated to 10.7.1

Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

Can only connect to Linksys E4200 when very close but PCs can connect at 50 feet. What's the solution?

Can only connect to Linksys E4200 when very close but PCs can connect at 50 feet. What's the solution?

If you're technically comfortable in getting to your Linksys settings - try changing the network mode or channel in your router's settings.
I still use my old Linksys router and when it's set to the default channel, which is 7, my Macbook Pro and Macbook Air sometimes have issues - changed the channel to 9 and have had no issues since.
Maybe it might work for you.
In any event - screenshots below are for your E4200 and play with those settings and see if any of the changes you've made improves how your Macbook connects. Before you change any settings, just remember what the old settings are in case you need to go back to your old settings.
Good luck.

Getting message Can not connect to iTunes Store when updating apps

Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

iPad, iOS 6.1.3

Where did you get the device? Is it possible that it has an IT policy on the device blocking Facebook and/or Facebook options? Look in Options >Security Options >General Settings (actual menu paths vary with OS version) and see if there is any reference to IT policy.
