Safari 5.0 and Facebook Issue

Ever since I downloaded 5.0 on my macbook (running leopard 10.5.8) Facebook doesn't work correctly. Only website I've had issues with so far. I can open a few different pages through Facebook then all of a sudden I get a blank page and can't refresh or go back to another Facebook page. I have to wait a few minutes, or quite Safari and reopen. However I can go to another website with no issue without having to relaunch Safari..... Only noticed this issue on Facebook, and only with my laptop running leopard, not my iMac which runs snow leopard.
Any ideas?

I also have the same problem. I'm on the latest version of Snow Leopard and on Safari 5.0 with my Macbook Pro. I have searched around the net and can't find the resolution. I can tried deleting my cookies, quitting safari or restarting my machine and Facebook works fine for a short while but then it reverts back to the blank page and I can't do anything on the page.

Safari and Facebook issues since Yosemite upgrade

OSX 10.10
Safari 8.0
Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013
Since upgrading to Yosemite, I have been having numerous issues on Safari with Facebook, but not on any other website. The issues are:
- Sometimes (maybe 10% of the time) only loads a few posts in my timeline (as few as 4) and then stops
- Sometimes (maybe 50% of the time) a few pictures are not displayed, but only a little question mark
- Sometimes (about 10% of the time) I cannot click any of the links
- Sometimes (about 20%) I get a Failed to Open Page screen with the message Safari cannot establish a secure connection.
I have tried the following:
- Turned off any extensions
- Cleared the History and Cache (as well as moving the cache.db file for Safari into Trash and then restarting Safari)
Neither of these seemed to have any effect. Any ideas what to do next?
If I delete Safari and re-install, is there some way to keep all my bookmarks?

Hi ..
If you delete Safari on a Mac running Yosemite v10.10, there are no standalone downloads to reinstall the app. You would have to restore OS X using OS X Recovery. Better to troubleshoot the currently installed Safari app.
Try OpenDNS.
Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
Click + and type:
208.67.222.222
Click + again and do the same.
208.67.220.220
Click OK.
Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
f that doesn't help, try Google's DNS > Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

Safari 6.0 and Netflix Issue

Does anyone else have an issue with netflix not loading the images and all you are left with is black placeholders?

I also have the same problem. I'm on the latest version of Snow Leopard and on Safari 5.0 with my Macbook Pro. I have searched around the net and can't find the resolution. I can tried deleting my cookies, quitting safari or restarting my machine and Facebook works fine for a short while but then it reverts back to the blank page and I can't do anything on the page.

Safari and Facebook Issue

I just bought my first Mac ever and am having issues that I don't have using Firefox on my Vaio. Facebook loads and loads and loads forever when I click on any link. Only half of the images load on a page. It's really annoying. What's going on?

Ok..
From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Security tab. Click: Show Cookies
Delete all Facebook cookies.
Quit Safari then relaunch Safari.
If that didn't help, go back to Safari / Preferences. You can access Safari Preferences with a keyboard shortcut: Command , (comma)
Select the Extensions tab. If you installed any Extensions, turn that off, relaunch Safari.
And in Safari / Preferences select the Appearance tab. Make sure: *Display images when the page opens* is selected.
And check your Home folder (accessible from a Finder window in the Sidebar on the left). Open the Library folder then the Internet Plug-ins folder. If you installed any Facebook plugins, move them to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari, try Facebook.
If nothing above has helped, Quit Safari. Open a Finder window select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the *com.apple.Safari folder*. Move the cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash. Relaunch Safari.
You can also try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file. Quit Safari. Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. If Safari loads a Facebook page correctly, move that .plist file to the Trash. If there's no difference, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder.
If you setup any Parental Controls (System Preferences / Parental Controls), that could be causing FB to not load.

OS 10.9.5 and Safari 7.1 and Facebook apps

Hello.
I'm having some problems, security related perhaps, in OS 10.9.5 and Safari 7.1 on an iMac 2011.
When using a certain Facebook game app, Safari is not remembering the preference to turn off the music and sound within the app. Each time I turn off the music and sound and if I restart the app, music and sound are on again.
I have deleted all website data and the Safari cache to no avail. I checked extensions and there is only one which is not enabled.
Another piece of information that may be of use...I started a comment in Communities which I did not finish a couple days ago. When I logged on to Communities, it notified me of the content and I selected Delete. I got a message the content couldn't be deleted and I should contact my administrator.
Any insight would be helpful.
Thank you.

Hi Larry,

Blackberry Curve and Facebook issues

I'm sure I'm not the only one...but I've finally decided to come here to see if anyone has an answer or solution to this problem.
I will post something via computer to my facebook page and then when I'm away from my computer I might get a response to a posting. I will then use my blackberry curve to send a response. Most of the time it works just fine...but there are times (these are the ones I'm trying to figure what's going on and what the solution is) where the response I send goes through just fine but once it hits facebook two issues happen:
1. This appears on my message on Facebook Ô when this happens it splits up the message into two seperate messages. I only see this on line.
2. when I view my Facebook page on my phone I get this message "Error encounterd during XML parse: Invalid character '&#x5' encountered. This pertty much prevents me from going any further down that particular posting on Facebook when looking on my phone.
What do I need to do to resolve this issue? Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Hi,
I've got two problem with weechat + bitlbee.
First.
I use the facebook account rename script, but weechat show (in the buddies list) the renamed buddy and the original ID number. Otherwise, when someone send me a message, weechat show me 2 activities.

How to notify in WMFS as urgent tag? I tried the beep script with "echo -e '\a'" but it doesn't work.
Thanks.
EDIT:
For the fisrt issue, the rename plugin must be load before the first connection.
For the second issue, I did't have the beep on for urxvt.

IPhoto and Facebook issue

I cannot get an album to upload to Facebook. I just uploaded an album last Sunday. Yesterday and today no luck. I may get 1 or two photos up but most of the time it just says pending or publishing thumbnails and hangs there. HELP (Using 9.1.3 version of iPhoto 11) Published to Flickr with no issues.

Geoff
There have been loads of problem the last week with Facebook photos. Google Facebook photo upload.
In my case, Sunday Facebook deleted all my photos from recent albums uploaded via iPhoto. Had been working fine. Album uploaded yesterday works fine.
Anyway it appears the problem is a Facebook server snafu that may have occurred during Facebook system maintenance. Facebook hasn't said when or how it will be fixed.

Flash Builder 4 and facebook issue

Hi,
I've implemented the facebook files neccecary for the facebook & application integration correctly.
Once I've done it with the tutorial's project it worked perfectly.
However once I tried doing the same proccess for my latest project and after I've uploaded the project to my website
all it gave me was a blank white page with nothing in it.
important notes:
* - The application IS registered with facebook.
* - The project has the SAME files as the first project I did with the tutorial (except the main application ofcourse).
* - Using Flash Builder 4 (flex 4).
Link to the black white project:

Any suggetions?
Thanks in advance,

Iphoto and facebook issues

My Iphoto library is showing exclamation marks where pictures once existed. These exclamation marks are all my Facebook albums. How do I make the pictures re-appear in my library?

where do you see these? When viewing events? when en=larging a single photo? What version of iPhoto? What has recently changed? Have you cleaned your disk or run any cleanup software like CleanMyMac2 or KacKeeper (Hint - Never use those programs - they are not needed and often damage the iPhoto library and the system)

Email and Contact Issues

My emails are not coming through to my phone unless I manually refresh. I have three accounts setup (Yahoo! and 2 school email accounts). Both school accounts, when I sign on from a computer says something about Outlook: one says Mircosoft outlook and the other says Outlook live.
I contacted my school and got the correct settings for each account. They work because I get the emails as long as I manually refresh. I initially had my phone set to check for mail every hour but after realizing it was not automatically doing this, I set it for every five minutes. That still didn't help.
Out of frustration, I called Verizon who told me they knew nothing about such an issue. They connected me to Samsung who said the same thing. Apparently they were both lying as I have Googled this issue and see that it has been posted since Sept 2010. I just have not noticed a solution (possibly overlooking it).
The solution that they gave me was so a hard reset (didn't work), delete then re-add the accounts (didn't work) or use a workaround. My response to their last suggestion was that I did not feel it was necessary for me to do that when the phone I purchased was supposed to handle email. This has been an issue since I got the phone in Nov 2010 when I switched to VZ. I didn't really notice it until this month because I was having text messaging issues which they didn't fix until this month.
Samsung ended up telling me to send them my phone and they would troubleshoot it but I had to contact VZ about getting a loaner phone as they were going to have it for a week. When I called VZ back, they told me they would just send me a replacement phone and to not send the phone to Samsung because they could have given me a defective phone. The order wasn't placed because their system was down that Friday and the guy was supposed to call me back. He never did so I called VZ a third time.
The tech support rep told me that she was positive that if I got a brand new phone I would still have the same problem because its a known issue that Samsung has yet to fix. Also she had the same phone and also some other people she worked with. She told me to make sure I deleted junk mail, sent stuff, kept the inbox down, and empty the trash and that should help. She was supposed to call me back and see if it helped (which it didn't). She never called back....that was Monday and today is Friday.
Now I'm feeling like they are lying to me because they don't want to replace my device. Then on top of that they told me it would more than likely be a refurbished device instead of a brand new device even though I still have a warranty. Should I push for a new phone or is this really a known issue with Samsung that they have yet to fix? If it is a Samsung issue, what's the workaround until they actually fix it?
By the way, Gmail works almost instantaneously. They told me to forward all of my mail there but that didn't work for my two school accounts. I don't like that anyway.
As for the contact issues, I just noticed two weeks ago that my Facebook and Twitter contacts are unsyncing themselves. I don't have all of my Facebook friends or Twitter followers in my phonebook but those whose phone numbers I have, are linked to their Facebook and or Twitter accounts but I notice that both of these accounts unlink themselves. I have no idea why this happens. I keep having to go back into my phonebook and relink about 30 people to their Facebook and or Twitter profiles. Any idea why?

In your email app, have you tried going into each account, pressing the menu button, account settings, and setting email check frequency to the desired time?
If that's not the issue, then perhaps pressing the menu button at the home screen, going into settings, accounts and sync, and clicking the background data option is the issue.
The reason why Gmail works well is that instead of polling (which is what the email app uses, where it queries the account to see if there's anything new), it pushes your email through meaning that it's virtually instantaneous.
With regards to the Twitter and Facebook issue, try going into the accounts and sync area that I mentioned before. There, you will be able to set the SNS sync interval and sync the contacts, birthdays, and whatever else it allows. You'll probably have to click on each of those accounts to check various options before it will autosync.
My frequency is set to every 5 mins. That hasn't worked.
The background data sync option is clicked already.
The Twitter and Facebook SNS syncing is set. I have noticed though that sometimes when I go in there, the sync arrow is red by Twitter and Facebook. I uncheck the box and recheck it and then it turns green again. What I don't know is why it randomly turns red in the first place. I'm assuming this is the reason the Facebook and Twitter stuff unsyncs itself.

Firefox 25.0.1 and Facebook have JavaScript issues

I am using Firefox 25.0.1 with Mac IOS 10.9 on my Macbook Air. When trying to get to Facebook, I am told that I have to enable JavaScript in my browser or go to the mobile site. I am given no instructions on enabling JavaScript, nor can I find JavaScript in my settings or add-ons. Safari does not have this issue, but I'd prefer to use Firefox. Unfortunately, a web search of this issue does not bring me any results. Is it just me?

Firefox has a general on/off setting for JavaScript. If it was off, lots of sites would be giving you the same message. Since it's only on Facebook, I think something else might be the culprit here.
Your post didn't include any information on your add-ons, so I'll give some general advice.
'''Removing obsolete/conflicting/corrupted stored data'''
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* click the padlock or globe icon in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
'''Testing for an extension conflict'''
Firefox's Safe Mode is a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash will still work)''
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Does Facebook work any better?

Unable to view google and facebook in safari

Unable to view google and facebook in safari on ios 7.0.3 on my ipad mini. The page is trying to reload repeatedly and chrome browser is written on the tab where google/Facebook should be.

I am not sure of the reasons but that is the normal
appearance in Safari, at least it is what I have seen. I think the
issue is how Safari handles things rather than what RoboHelp
produces.
In looking at other help products before going for RoboHelp,
did you download some trial versions of other products and have you
checked their output in Safari?
Maybe someone with more knowledge of Safari can comment?
For what it may be worth, only 1.3% of the visitors to my
site use Safari so that wouldn't upset me too much. Of course the
percentage may be different and more important for you. I suspect
Safari users are used to such things.
Right or wrong, IE and Firefox are the biggies.
