Wi-fi and Facebook photos problem on iOS 6.0.1

I have a MacBook Air and and iPhone 3GS. Over wifi connection strange things happen when I use Facebook. I cannot see images on my timeline from firends and I cannot even see some of my photos. I've tried both secure and unsecure connection through Facebook account settings but nothing changes. Videos on the timeline won't play either. When I switch to 3G on my phone everything is fine. What could be the problem I cannot find out. Until a few weeks ago it was normal. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue?
Thank you.

Maybe you just lucked out but both my devices running ios 6.0.1 have wifi problems shutting of at random times during sleep. I know you guys will say when its plugged in it doesn't lose wifi true but I never remember having this problem in the previous ios verison from ios 4 to 5(On my Iphone 4, and from my Iphone 4s from IOS 5) until I updated both devices to ios 6  or even when I had a iTouch 3rd gen long time ago I never remember it shutting of my wifi. I am telling you this never happened before IOS 6 where I need to leave it plugged in just to have my wifi during wake up.

I thought I believed my iPhone 4 with iOS5.0 would not disconnect during sleep mode. However, I was wrong. What I did was to ping the IP addresses on my iPhone 4 (iOS5) and iPhone 5 (iOS 6 then, and iOS6.0.1 now) when they were in sleep mode. Very true that there were timed-out on both devices. Once I woke them up, ping went thru. I did a scan on my home network using my iPad while the other 2 phones were in sleep mode, I was not able to see them.
I thought my iPhone4 did not disconnect too. But again, I think the reconnecting to wifi on iOS 5 is SO MUCH quicker than on iOS6 so user would think there was never a disconnect.

  • I Start a New am so frustrated with problems syncing photos on my iPad. I choose which files to sync but get deleted photos in my albums, my photos are in the wrong albums and the weirdest of all- I now have strange graphics and Facebook photos in albums!

    I have spent several hours trying to find a solution to the following problems. After syncing my IPad with ITunes, I end up with photos that I previously deleted in my albums, duplicate photos, albums that have wrong pictures in them and weirdest of all, strange graphics and Facebook photos that are not even mine. Right now I hate this thing!
    I have scanned the support forums, Googled it, deleted several photo caches, spent days editing my photo files, checked the specific folders I wanted to sync and it seems like it's not syncing, just adding the same photos and strange crap that it already had on it. Oh please help me!
    Thanks!

    OK....I'm stumped.  The message you are seeing is typically there to protect someone from syncing with a different computer/iTunes account.  Is there any way anyone else has used your iPad and possibly connected it to their computer?

  • Safar/Facebook photo problem on iMac with OS X 10.8

    I have updated my Mid 2010 27" i7 iMac to Mountain Lion from Lion.  The update appeared to go smoothly with no difficulties reported.
    So far I have found only one 'issue'.  I doubt it is entirely an OS or Safari problem as I also updated my wife's mid-2011 13" i7 MBA and my new MBA to Mountain Lion and they do not exhibit the problem.  I've posted about this problem on the iMac group three days ago but haven't received a reply so I thought I'd give this group a try.
    Setup:  Execute Safari (6.0), access facebook account, access any photo to bring up the Facebook photo viewer.
    Issue:  While viewing the photo the Safari window will flash displaying very briefly what appears to be the screen from which the photo was accessed.  This occurs anytime the cursor crosses the left or right edge of the photo and sometimes randomly if the cursor is moved within the image.  If the mouse cursor is not moving the flash doesn't occur--the image is stable.
    I did a google search and didn't find the problem listed in the search results so I'm wondering if anyone with a mid 2010 i7 iMac has updated to ML also has the problem.

    I have exactly the same problem on my iMac (27' i7 Mid 2010), I updated to Mountain Lion and the dark overlay below facebook photos popup disapears for a moment when I move the mouse across the edges of the popup container. However on my MacBook Pro (15' i7 Early 2011, also Mountain Lion, same Safari version) there's no such issue.
    The fact that you have the same problem on the same model as I shows that it is likely an issue Apple will have to address.  I have filed a bug report on the problem.  We'll see if Apple deems it a problem with high enough priority to address in the near future.

    have you notced another problem, too?

    I use Lightroom to upload photos so I wouldn't have noticed that particular problem.
    It wouldn't surprise me, though.  After all, it is a .0 release and facebook has been messin' with their photo software quite a lot recently.

  • New to Mac-- Security Certificates and facebook photo uploader question

    Hi all,
    I'm new to Mac and really have to idea how to fix my problems, so please bear with me as I ask what may be a dumb question.
    I was attempting to upload a photo into a pre-existing album on facebook. Because the album was created before I switched to Mac, I did not use iPhoto to publish it, and attempted to use the Facebook photo uploader. On my PC, it would ask to download the Facebook photo-installer add-on, which would then be deleted and need be be reinstalled if I cleared my internet explorer history fully (Maybe this is why PCs are far less stable...but I digress)
    When I navigated to the photo uploader, I received a message from Java that something was wrong with the security certificate of the application. I clicked "don't trust" because the other options were "trust" and "show certificate"...it all happened so fast, I don't remember the exact language, and I wanted to keep my Mac as stable as possible. Now, the photo uploader is nothing but a red "X" in the upper left corner of where the application should be
    I reset all of my Java defaults. I reset Safari (deleted history and all that, by doing Safari-->reset Safari) I don't know what else to do and I don't want to accept that I did something irreversible within a week of having my new computer...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

  • Apple Game Centre And Facebook Link Problem!

    I don't know how many of you are familiar with the app Treasure Diving! One of the achievements acquired is to link your Facebook page to the game! It's one of the first thing's the game asks you to do! I have done this and my friends on Facebook are in my game friends list so I know it is working! However according to the game centre it isn't linked and I haven't achieved the Facebook link on the achievement list! This is extremely annoying since the game as asked me to complete all the achievements! As part of the game that I have already done, it is so annoying that it hasn't been acknowledged by game centre! Has anyone else had a problem with game centre and the Facebook link? Does anyone know if this issue is being worked on and going to be fixed any time soon?

    Hello Thorn Wicca,
    I recommend this iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant for helping troubleshoot apps downloaded from the App Store found here https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/application/. Here is the first step to get you started:
    Verify iOS requirements
    Make sure the app is compatible with your iPhone software:
    Check the requirements in the App Store.
    Check your iOS version using Settings > General > About.
    If the app requires a newer version of the iOS than the one you are using, update iOS on your iPhone.
    All the very best,

  • Is there any way to fix the flash and poor photo quality after iOS 7 upgrade?

    Hi everybody,
       Since upgrading to the new iOS 7 on my iPhone 5 ... I have experienced poor photo (grainy) and the flash works when it feels like it... Is there any way
    possible to revert back at least on the camera settings or is there a fix that can be downloaded to solve this problem? I take and use my camera a lot on my iphone5 and for me to have this problem it has made me really regret ever upgrading and I  am starting to lose my faith in Apple products. I have searched the entire web and it appears there are a ton of people experiencing this same problem.!!!!

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons..
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    Restoring  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11.1.5) Installed on your computer

    Hi there
    I'm not sure there is a way to prevent this. The Skip button is really intended for the review process. Unfortunately it is also active at the time the user encounters the question. Basically, if the user clicks the Skip button they are saying "I don't wish to answer this question". Thus, the question is left unanswered and counts against the final score.
    Perhaps another Captivate author has a suggestion.

  • Direct connection and sending photos problem

    I m running ichat 4 and recently have been getting issues with a lag. i drag and drop an image to send an image directly to a buddy but there is this few seconds lag for it to send. i remember in ichat 3 it wouldnt lag it would automatically popup in the conversation bubble and the user would recieve.
    what is wrong?

    Logins and standard Text Chats are on port 5190 by default on the TCP protocol.
    Direct chats move things to the UDP Protocol on the same port (or 5190 if you are using another to Login)
    Sometimes the AIM servers are slow in letting go to make the chat Peer-to-Peer at this stage.
    Sometimes it is what your processor may also be doing that slows your iChat up.
    I sometimes find that on My end the Pic in is the Chat then Little Snitch That I run wants me to confirm the port change several seconds later - whilst my Buddy is waiting with the Question mark, indicating that something is coming.
    Like you though I do think iChat 4 is slower at this function overall.

  • 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.

    This sounds more like a Windows question, than a Firefox question. When you say that an image shows up every time you open your computer, do you mean every time you turn on your computer, or every time you start Firefox?

  • IOS 8 - mail and non-photo/video attachment

    Hello, I had a really simple question regards iOS 8 (sorry if this has been answered before),
    Is it yet possible to compose or reply to an email in the Mail App and insert a attachment that isn't a photo or video (e.g. word document or PDF) without leaving the mail app.
    I have heard a bit about Document Picker, but not quick sure how to enable this function.
    Thank in advance for any useful answers
    Kind Regards
    RE

    II think I found the problem. It was Apple's new Photos app and the Photos Cloud. Enabling that cloud sucked up most of my meager bandwidth as it uploaded my photo library to the cloud. When I paused the upload the problem went away!  It took a week to upload my library. Unfortunately unless you avoid photos Cloud, there is no way around this issue. I don't think Apple thought this through completely before launching that app
