Is this a possible bug on the Facebook app for iPhone?

I tend to suffer from slight paranoia regarding security online and on my phone. I'll try to explain the worry I'm having as best I can.
Basically, I had a personal video on my phone, (nothing horrible don't worry), but it's of a nature that would be embarrassing to be seen by other people.
So this video was the latest thing I had recorded/taken with my phone. I went onto the Facebook app on my iPhone to post an older picture I had to my page.
When I saw that this video was still on my phone, I panicked and worried that it could somehow get posted to my page without me actually posting it e.g. a bug whereby the last picture or video taken would go onto your Facebook without you actually selecting it or posting it. So I deleted it while still on the grid page where you choose your photos/videos and so it disappeared when I went back to the app.
Can anyone with 100% honesty tell me one way or another if this is possible? If I haven't explained it enough let me know and I'll explain it further. Again, please be honest cos it's the best thing for me. Thanks.

It may be in Facebook, but Facebook doesn't consider it a bug; it's the way Facebook works. If you gave the app permission to view your photos it gives Facebook access to ALL of your photos. To put your mind at ease go to your Facebook page on your computer and see if it's there.
If you are concerned about privacy online you probably shouldn't have a Facebook page

ALL of your music should be on your computer in itunes. Is it not?
How did it get on your ipod in the first place if not from your comptuer?
Everything on your ipod should be on your computer and you should be syncing regularly.

I believe the Facebook App requires (or at least it did in the past) the screen to be rotated to Landscape to access/enable chat functions/enable online status (I believe at the bottom-right of the screen). You need to set your online status to available (or whatever their terminology is) to have other people see your online status and availability to chat.

Hi Louise,

The episodes I uploaded last weeks are not shown in Itunes but only in the podcast app for iPhone.

In june I started the podcast and it was apprroved by Itunes.
It took a long time for the first 2 episodes to be uploaded.
But they are now finally in.
So in the last two weeks I uploaded episoded 2 till 6.
But they are shown in Itunes, although they are shown and can be downloaded in the podcast app for Iphone.
What is going wrong?

Dear Roger,
Another problem is popping up.
After I followed your advise the episodes immediately showed up in Itunes.
But this week we added a new episode which has taken 30 hours to come online.
After waking up this morning, not only the last added episode but also the 4th and 1st dissapreared.
Could you please have a look again at the posterous and feedburner pages.
There are the same as in my first post:

How to get pics in the iphoto app for iphone back onto my macbook pro

I need to know how to get my pics that are stored on iphone in the "iphoto app for iPhone" back onto my macbook pro's iphoto. macbook was recently wiped out (i didn't back up) during Genius Bar repair

See this support article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
The safest way would be to share all photos that are in iPhoto albums to the Camera Roll. When you connect the iPhone to your Mac and open iPhoto you can download the contents of the Camera Roll just like from any camera.

I need facebook app for iPhone IOS4.2.1 please

I need facebook app for iPhone IOS4.2.1 please

Only the current version of each app is available in the store, if you downloaded the app when it was compatible with iOS 4.2.1 and you still have a copy of it somewhere (e.g. on a backup) then you should be able to install it on your iPhone. Otherwise you will need to see if any of the third-party Facebook apps that are in the store work on iOS 4.2.1, or you can try accessing it via Safari.

I bought an IPad 1 from my sister, she got a new one. Now I need to find the Facebook app for ios 5. Can somebody help me to find it?

I bought an IPad1 from my sister, she got à new one. Now I am searching for the facebookapp for ios5. Can someone help me? My sister hasselt cleaned the IPad with fabricinstallation so everything is gone. We realized only after that we have done that it was not clever to do so. There are no old apps available in the AppStore. Therefore my question. I need the Dutch version.
Thanks in advance!
Patricia

By third party I mean apps like Facely or other apps for facebook that weren't made by facebook.
Just search the App Store for facebook apps, then read the specs and see which ones may have a larger backwards compatibility that will work for your device.
If you can't find one you can still access facebook at www.facebook.com and use safari.

HT201272 Problems with The Times app for iphone

I have purchased an iphone app for The Times through itunes at a cost of £9.99 for 30 days. Over 2 weeks has passed and I still don't have full access to the app. Sometimes I can log-in and it works, but every day there are times when I cannot log-in. When I try to log-in, the app says my subscription has expired. I type in my email address and password, and it doesn't accept it (a message says I should email The Times helpdesk). I contacted The Times helpdesk, and they told me that it was a problem with itunes. I would like to understand what the problem is, and why isn't the app working?

Tried any of these steps?
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.

Is the Keynote app for iPhone/iPad the same one for a MacBook?

The app for Keynote for iPhone is $9.99, but I thought I saw a $19.99 one before. Is there a separate app for MacBook? Same issue for Pages and Numbers.
Thanks.

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
Yes, the apps are different because the operating systems are different. If you want to use the apps on both, the Mac version of the apps are sold in the Mac App Store and the iOS versions of the apps are sold in the iTunes app store. Luckily the iOS versions are cheaper.

How to download pictures directly from the facebook app for blackberry

I have OS 6 on a blackberry curve 9300. I am wondering if there is any way to download pictures from my newsfeed without having to go to the mobile site through my browser. I would also like to know if there is an easier way to update my profile picture than to upload it, go to it and choose it. As well, is there a way to tag photos after they have been uploaded via my blackberry?

Hello !
Unfortunately, till this time the procedure which you are following is the only way out to download pics.
May be in near future RIM BlackBerry come up with an updated version of Facebook which have tose features.
Hope this resolves your Problem!

How to you setup email in the ePrint app for iPhone?

I just purchased a new HP Laserjet Pro 400 model 401DN printer. I have registered the printer with the HP ePrint Center and I have created a ePrint email address. The printer is connected with an Ethernet cable to a hardwired network in my house.
My first question - Can I use the HP ePrint iPhone app to print items to the 401DN printer? I think I can.
I have installed the HP ePrint app on my iPhone 5. The app instructions say that I can print the body of an email from the iPhone. To do this, I think I need to go into the app settings - Email Accounts - Other. I tried using IMAP. In the Email address field which email address am suppose to use? My main email address that I use to send and receive all my mail? I am suppose to enter the incoming or outgoing server information? I have not been able to find any documentation on how to setup the email portion of the ePrint iPhone app.
I tried setting up the email using my gmail account and it worked and verified properly. I can't figure out how to set the email using my primary email account.
I have tried to enter the information I think the app is looking for and verification fails.
Thanks for your help!
This question was solved.

artmanphoto,
I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .
I hope this helps.

TS1702 I downloaded the Pages app for Iphone and can't figure out how to unable to upload my documents to the program. Please help!

Please advise. I'm trying to download documents to Pages app on my iphone and can't seem to find the instructions on the help menu. Please help

There's several ways to get access to your documents.
You can email them to yourself from where ever they are presently.
You can use iTunes file sharing to copy the files into the file sharing area of Pages in iTunes.
You can turn on iCloud and go to iCloud.com on your computer to copy files into iCloud which will then copy them to your iPhone.
If you have Pages on your computer you can turn on iCloud on your computer and your iPhone and select those documents to keep synced between the two devices.

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.

Is this a possible bug on the Facebook app for iPhone?
