Ipad mini facebook ios 7 problem

Hello!

After upgrading to Ios 7 i downloaded the facebook app to my ipad mini. Once i logged into it, it asked me to log in the facebook from settings in my ipad. I found facebook tab in settings and entered everything but now it tells that the password was wrong. When i'm trying to type the password, it tells me: "error signing in. Could not communicate with the server", and that's it! I tried to delete my account from that settings tab but it doesn't do anything. Even deleting app or rebooting the device still leaves that facebook tab the same: i cannot enter the password and cannot delete an account. Meanwhile each time i start facebook app - it asks me to log in from settings, but i cannot!

What can solve this issue? Because i cannot do anything with that facebook tab - neither enter the password, nor even delete account data from it.

Sorry for long question.

P.S. Anyone know if it is possible to write somewhere about bugs or lags i found in ios7?

Ipad mini-OTHER, iOS 7

This one may help:

Settings / Privacy : uncheck Facebook in order to deny Facebook App to have contact to your Facebook account.

Now you can log in to your FB account via App . Xx

THIS FIXED my wife's issues with the FB app on her iPad2 (endless loop, 'can't connect to server' etc.). Posted by 'Team Awesome 13' on another thread ...

"Here is what to do.

Settings > General > Reset > Location and Privacy. (Accept resetting Location and Privacy to 'Factory Defaults')

Then login. Hopefully Apple fix this problem when they do their upgrade."

Just to add to the mix, the only two events, besides updating the iOS, which have occurred on my behalf is that I changed my name on Facebook, not username or email address, and killed of a few approved sessions via the FB site.

I can access my FB account fine via the FB app and any browser I choose, but as for any other app that requests FB linkage that I wished to approve on my iPAD, it spits up an error. So I am guessing these apps are trying to use the FB access data stored under the settings, which refuses to accept my password, just keeps telling me my username or password is incorrect. Which is odd because I have not changed my username, which I don't believe you can anyway and I am entering my password correctly.

Facebook is not listed under the Privacy settings. So my iPAD is not even recording that the FB app requests access.

Yes I have tried everything that has been suggested, short of complete reset.

Apple have become somewhat tarnished over this issue and their seemingly ignorant attitude to everyone.

I'm guessing they have absolutely no idea what is going on...................
