Why is facebook so slow on my Iphone with IOS 8?

Why is facebook so slow on my Iphone with IOS8?

Here is the article explaining why.
Developer Steve Streza, iOS devices are programmed to ping a test URL upon connecting to a Wi-Fi network to see if it’s protected by a “captive portal.” And that test page has been down all afternoon…
Here’s more on that from Errata Security:
“When an Apple iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod) connects to a WiFi network, the first thing it does is make a request to the URL http://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html.
The purpose of this request is to discover if there is a “captive portal” in the way. A captive portal is when, after connecting to the WiFi, any web request you makes gets redirected to a login/ToS page. In order to continue, you must either login with a username/password (or sign up, then login), and/or access the Terms of Service.”
Anyway, it sounds like Apple was able to correct this issue on their end, so no update will be necessary. But if you’re still having Wi-Fi problems, you can try the following:
Toggle your Wi-Fi off and on – Settings app > Wi-Fi OR
Set your device’s HTTP Proxy to Auto – Settings app > Wi-Fi > Blue icon next to the network you’re connecting to > Scroll to the bottom
One of these methods should cure your iOS 6 Wi-Fi troubles. If not, be sure to let us know in the comments below.

  • I hv iPhone with ios 6.0.2 My iphone could not able to check for update-it's just showing "checking for updates" with loading sign How can I upgrade to ios 7?  Help pls

    I hv iPhone with ios 6.0.2
    My iphone could not able to check for update…it’s just showing “checking for updates” with loading sign
    How can I upgrade to ios 7?
    Help pls

    I agree- I apologize if I sounded skeptical and attacking. In no way did I mean it to sound that way.
    I completely agree on the software-hardware combo issue- this is why apple killed off 1G and 2G devices- because newer software revisions would never ever run well if at all on such ancient devices. can you imagine running iOS 6 on an iPhone/iPod touch 1G? That would be terrible. Let alone iOS 3 runs terrible on them and now are generally rendered useless due to newer App Store requirements (most require 4.3+ now to allow apple to kill off the older devices). forcing newer software on older hardware (apple, dell, HP,... Anything electronic this definitely applies to) will almost always yield less-than-par results. The other part is apple forcing you to upgrade by means of intentially making things obsolete. all companies do that.
    All of this factual info aside, the issue at hand with the 5 is not a software-hardware combo problem- those are most widely seen with the major revisions. then again, this isn't the first time apple has gotten caught up in battery drain snafus (even iOS 5 was plagued with this as well- and now there are some people desperate to roll back but can't). it basically waters it down to the point where keeping the stock software will always yield the best results even though newer versions provide better features- it all depends on whether or not the person deems the added features are worth a performance hit.
    PS. I'm still at 100%- and I've been using it periodically throughout the day. your combo worked for you, but didn't for me. And may or may not work for others- As the tech world would say, mileage may vary.
    PSS. What model/carrier do you have? Just wondering.

    Assuming you're creating this event to place in your calendar, and assuming this calendar is shared with your iMac and iPad using iCloud, might the calendar be restricted on your iPhone?

    Hi deamayfield,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:

  • I have an iPhone with iOS 7.1.1 and am trying to update to 7.1.2, but get an error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone becaus the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone"

    I have an iPhone with iOS 7.1.1 and am trying to update to 7.1.2, but get an error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone"

    Assuming you are using the current version of iTunes (11,2,2), open iTunes, click "Preferences" under the leftmost entry on iTunes' menu, then choose "Devices".
    Find the iPhone's backup there, highlight it, and choose "Delete Backup".

    Hi Apple_Mom,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you've noticed issues after updating to iOS 7.0.2, you may want to first update to iOS 7.0.3 which was recently released.

    Are you sure you have a 3GS and not a 3G?  The 3G cannot be updated to iOS5.  What version are you on now?... Settings > General > About > Version

    Try rephrasing your question.
    What does your card have to do with it and how do you complete a phone with ios 6?
    What exactly are you doing, and what is the exact message you're getting?

  • Why don't I have reduce motion option with iOS 7.0.2 upgrade?

    Why don't I have reduce motion option with iOS 7.0.2 upgrade?  It is making me really dizzy and sick to my stomach similar to reading in the car (can't do that either).  I read to go into general settings, accessibility and click reduce motion....I do not have this option at all.  HELP!

    Seconded. Although my main problem w/ that zoom-out-as-app-loads effect is that I suspect it's the source of that annoying delay between app zooming open & UI being active/accepting input. When I switch between apps, after the zoom completes, there's 1-2 seconds where the app accepts no UI input at all. This seemed instantaneous in iOS 6.
    (Oh, off-topic, but the control center is devilishly hard to sweep up. most of the time I accidentally start Safari or Mail.)

  • Why wont my battery bacy up pack work with IOS 7

    Why wont my battery back up pack work with IOS 7?

    Spoke too soon. Here's a reply. From another user on here. It worked for me.
    I had the same problem after I upgraded to iOS 7 last night and saw that all of my different e-mail accounts merged into one under the "All Inboxes" view.  I resolved the problem by deleting just one of my e-mail accounts and adding it back again under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calenders.  Once I added the one account I deleted back under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calenders my inbox refreshed and showed all of my seperate e-mail accounts as it previously did before I upgraded to iOS 7.  Give it a try and let me know if that works for you as well.
