Non-Responsive iPad in Facebook

[markbnh1]

While on fb just a few minutes ago I was actually able to comment again by holding in the blank comment , just hold your finger there and the keyboard will come up.. They must be working on this problem... Ugh.

Yes, I just noticed that the problems seem to be fixed now! Thanks to anyone who reported it to Facebook!

I'm new to iPad but have already experineced the same problem You're discussing above. Did not find any answer how to solve the problem so I will continue to follow this discussion.

I prefer the Internet version of Facebook on my new iPad 3 before the App version. Mainly because it comes in Swedish (the App only in English). Since some weeks ago I have faced a problem: I can't "like" or "comment" or do other actions on some of incoming issues. It happens now and then. Sometimes it's OK (as it should be) and sometimes it seems to be blocked: there's seems to be some kind of "reaction" but nothig happens really. It seem to be random: sometime it's OK or a certain frien and the nex time (same day) it's not but OK for another.

It this due to some wrong settings in my iPad or is it something coming from Facebook (trying to force me to use the app)? What can I do about it. For the time being I have to use my desktop to handle those actions that does not work in my iPad.

You are right, using fb via Safari appears much improved the last few days. I am able to like stuff. I just can't get over how bad the fb app on the iPad is, if I were Facebook I would be embarrassed to have such a bad product out on the market!

The problem seems to have nothing to do with ipad settings. It seems that it has been working better for the past few days. However, it is not consistent, I still have problems sharing, liking and opening links on Facebook in Safari now and again.

I rarely use FaceBook through Safari. It works when I do, but that might just be because I don't use it long enough to crash Safari.

The FaceBook app crashes every so often, but since all I have to do is start it again, I don't pay much attention to the frequency.


Other than the fixes I outlined, and the Admiral's suggestion to delete and reinstall it, I have no more ideas what could be done.


Are you running the most recent version of iOS (6.01)?

Actually, I am not using iOS6 ... It was only a few months ago I installed iOS5 ... When I did that, I lost all my iTunes music and spent an hour on the phone with Apple trying to get it back. I bet that's e problem, I need to install iOS 6. Hopefully things go better this time when I install it lol ... Thank you for your time!
