Facebook will not open in Safari- too many directives. Never had the problem before and not sure what this means as I am not tech savy

Safari will not open Facebook Page- too many directives and does not support Facebook? I have tried all avenues I think but still not work. It does open all other websites.

iPad 2, iOS 9

Redirections are a web server function. That is, web servers redirect web pages to other web pages. Too many redirects is either too many sequential redirects in a row, or probably more commonly looping redirections (a > b > c > a > b > ...), and the redirection logic involved is solely under the control of the web server maintainers.


FaceBook are having some difficultly maintaining the data they’ve harvested, having reportedly had two apparently separate half-million-user-sized leaks recently, so a looping web server redirect is far from impossible.


Contact FaceBook support.
