Issue w/ Facebook website

So I bought a 32gb iPad and the first couple of nights I bought it I used the Facebook website chat w/o a problem. The online friends list showed up, I could tap the chat boxes and talk back and forth, etc. Just like I would on a normal desktop browser.
But ever since those first couple nights, it hasn't worked. The page loads but none of the chat boxes/indicators come up on the screen. I have no idea what's changed or why it doesn't load now, does anyone have any ideas?
Oh and I really do not want to use the Facebook app (at least not the iPhone version for right now) because I like the idea of being able to go back and forth between the Faceboook web page and any other browser windows I may have open. Thanks...

Facebook beta tests a lot of its apps without user's knowledge. So, they might have implemented an HTML based chat system for a few days or weeks, then reverted or changed to a Flash version. This happens a lot with Facebook, since I have flash blocked on Safari on my MBP, and I'll see things disappear at times.
I have noticed that a lot of FB games have moved to HTML5 (or at least some non-flash system). My personal addiction of one FB game works perfectly on the iPad. A few weeks ago, it did not work on my iPhone, but now does.
My suggestion is to download the Facebook App, though only in an iPhone version now, but it does have the chat feature fully enabled.

    What Steps do I take to edit raw files and save for web use, such as Instagram, Facebook, Websites, and emailing?

    When you open a raw file it will open in Adobe camera raw. That is where you can do most of the editing. Then it will be placed inside Photoshop where you can do more if needed.
    Now you can use the save for web dialog to export your image as a png or jpg to use on those sites.

  • Problem in Firefox 4 while opening facebook website

    I opened facebook website and was searching for newly added friends in my friend's list search bar and i could not find the names of them , but they exists in the friend list. Moreover i tried the sam on Internet Explorer and it works. So request you to please take immediate action to deal with it.

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have released an update for Norton 360 to make it compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about other Norton products, but if you run Norton LiveUpdate it should inform you if there are updates available. If no updates are available, you can downgrade to Firefox 3.6 if you want to use the Norton add-ons.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • I'm having issues loading Facebook due to time out error.

    I'm on 10.8.2 and using Safari 6.0.1. I've tried everything....clearing cache, resetting Safari...and yet I'm having this issue. Also tried Chrome, Firefox and Opera as well. Sigh.
    I've got no issues loading Facebook on my iPad using the same WIFI network. So I'm really puzzled.

    i was having the same problem, after a trying all options that genuis bar recommeneded it still didn't work, but what worked was a DFU restore, which was actually recommeneded by a specialist at the Yorkdale apple store, i can't believe all the genuises i spoke to didn't recommend that the first time around after all else had failed... but DFU restore worked for me...
    good luck and hope it helped.
    Shout out to the Yorkdale (Toronto) Apple store specialists!

    How to Block Facebook Website
    All URL I put in Access Restriction (Internet Access Policy) have been blocked, except for www.facebook.com.
    Is there a problem with my WRT160N?
    Please help.
    - Thanks

    This model must use exact url blocking in which case blocking Facebook can't reliably be done.
    If you had a dns server you could specify a bogus ip address for Facebook on your network.
    I had to move to the AE series routers because the parental control is the best and blocking Facebook was easy with only "facebook.com" as the url.

  • IPhone Push Issues? facebook?

    anyone else having having PUSH issues with facebook and/or just push in general? for a while on sunday, i was getting NO push (i tested with boxcar and ping, couldn't send ANYTHING). new facebook wasn't working. well, ping and boxcard started working again, mind you, this was my phone and my wifes experiencing the same issue. now, facebook push still doesn't work and i'm wondering if it's more people out there? i haven't heard of any tech site reporting on the issue but it seems widespread, just search twitter to verify.
    anyone?

    The Facebook app push problem is at their end. You need to address this to them. Other push apps work just fine (i.e AP Mobile, CNN, Football Plus, At Bat, WoldMate and others).

  • Is there a CDN Issue? Certain websites half loadin...

    Hi,
    A few weeks ago my trusty DG834G router decided to stop connecting to the internet (or even acknowledging I had an ADSL connection, very odd) so I've had to (reluctantly!) promote the BT homehub from access point to main router.
    I'm fairly sure it's completely unrelated to my router switching but ever since doing so I've had sporadic issues connecting to certain sites. It's extremely frustating.
    Half the sites will tend to load, but hang on loading various elements - stylesheets, javascript etc. This happens on multiple devices.
    I believe I've tracked the issue down to CDNs (content-distribution-networks), specifically Akamai.
    For example, when loading the BBC site my browser hangs loading assets from bbcimg.co.uk. When loading eBay it hangs loading assets from rtm.ebaystatic.com and from Facebook fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net.
    Doing an nslookup against these servers show they all appear to be farmed out to Akamai.
    (note, my router is correctly at 192.168.0.253)

    Running the same commands from a dedicated server sat in a datacentre works fine. I imagine this is also the case for other domestic ISPs.

    Trace complete.
    Note that from my connection it resolves to 213.120.157.18 but from our servers it resolves to 23.63.99.224. I can telnet to 23.63.99.224 perfectly fine from my home connection.
     I understand the point of a CDN is to split the load between servers so I may expect to see different IPs but 213.120.157.18 appears to be owned by BT. Are BT hosting their own CDN network which is killing my connection?
    Please could this be escalated to someone in your networking department to investigate? I can only assume it's not just me having this issue and the issue appear to be fairly simple to fix.
    Many thanks.

    Hi
    I'm having precisely the same problems, and have been for the last couple of weeks - everything works fine, except for CDN-hosted content.
    The addresses I cannot connect to are the same as the ones in the original post - eg:
    tracert node1.bbcimg.co.uk
    Tracing route to a1092.g.akamai.net [213.120.157.72]
    over a maximum of 30 hops:
      1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  router [10.X.X.X]
      2    42 ms    42 ms    41 ms  217.47.13.186
      3     *        *        *     Request timed out.
    Changing DNS server (to e.g.: 8.8.8.8) doesn't help - returns the same (unresponsive) IP addresses.
    I'm aware of the BBC-related problems from a week or two ago, and my problems seem to have started at around the same time, but I get problems on various websites - anything that doesn't respond seems to be Akamai related.
    It's not consistent either.  Whilst writing this, the result I get from nslookup has now changed to 213.120.161.186 & 213.120.161.200, and suddenly I can see the BBC News website again.
    At the same time, I can't access store.steampowered.com.  nslookup on that gives a1507.d.akamai.net, 213.120.157.32 213.120.157.74 213.120.157.67
    So - I seem to be getting two ranges back for Akamai CDN servers from DNS queries - sometimes I'm getting 213.120.157.X addresses, which seem to route into nowhere for me, and sometimes I'm getting 213.120.161.X addresses, which work fine.
    For reference, my WAN IP is 86.137.32.X, gateway is 217.47.13.186.
    Don't suppose there are any hugely knowledgable BT folks passing who can tell which CDN servers I should be seeing, and can say why I seem to be flip-flopping between one set I can see and one I can't?
    Cheers
