I have reset my IPad 2 several times. Reloaded the most current IOS for the IPAD and Facebook. Facebook still crashes everytime I open it. I had the same problem on my Iphone 4 but reverted to the previous Facebook version and it works. I tried that on my Ipad but it doesn't work. Any one know how to fix this? Facebook won't respond at all when I submit the problem to them.
iPad 2, iOS 6.1.3
You can try giving the app a reset. Double click the home key. You'll see the app icons line up on the bottom of the screen. Find the facebook one, hold your finger down on it until you see a red circle with a white minus sign in it. Tap on that to force close the app. Then click the home key again to exit that mode. try the app again. If it keeps crashing your only real options are to wait for facebook to fix it or find another way.
I access facebook via safari, and there are also third party apps that you can try.
Apple won't worry if the facebook app is broken, it's up to facebook to fix it.
Here's a few things I try when an app misbehaves and crashes.
1. Quit the app and restart it like this: Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it work like normal.
2. If the first suggestion did not work try quitting the app again but instead of restarting it right away, reset your device like this: Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. Ten restart the app and see if it works.
3. If neither of the previous suggestions worked I suggest deleting the app by tapping and holding on the app until it jiggles and displays a Rex X. Tap the X and confirm that you want to delete the app. Then reset your device. After the device has restarted go to the App Store and download Facebook again.
If all these fail you might just have to search for an alternative app until Facebook fixes the problem.
My Facebook App crashes everytime I open it on my IPAD 2. How do you fix that?
