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?

Me too, this is really annoying. Well, my Facebook app works fine. I just can't sign into Facebook under my settings. Everytime I open the Facebook app, it will ask me to enter the log in information in settings , but I just hit cancel and continue using my Facebook app.

However, I'm missing out on whatever the integrated Facebook has to offer, because I'm unable to sign in or delete the account. I really don't want to restore, and anyway someone above me said restore didn't work for them so..are we just screwed for now?

Okay, finally i found out the solution!
When nothing worked for me, i tried the restore again. But! To make things done - you have to restore your ipad mini and then just set it up as a new device!

Ta-da!! 🙂
When i restored it from the different copies on my PC, problem kept, but setting as a new ipad solved it!

Don't forget to backup your applications, music and photos. And yes, you'll have to make settings once again 🙂

I too am experiencing this issue; on two seperate iPads (with Retina) with two different accounts. It started when I upgraded the iPad's to iOS 7.


When I tap on "Delete Account" I am asked to confirm with the following message: " Delete | Do you want to delete this Facebook account from your iPad? : Delete | Cancel "


When I tap on Delete, the message goes away and the account is not deleted from the iPad.


When I tap on "Delete Account" again, nothing happens.


If I leave the Facebook integration screen and return to it I am able to tap on "Delete Account" and am asked to confirm: " Delete | Do you want to delete this Facebook account from your iPad? : Delete | Cancel "


I just installed iOS update 7.0.2 but this issue still persists - an endless & futile loop. ∞


Wiping / restoring the iPad to setup as a new device is completely unacceptable. The hassle of losing date, settings and the tedious task of putting hundreds of Apps back into folders just isn't worth it, especially just to use Facebook integration on the iPad.

I have a similar problem. After I upgraded my ipad to iOS 7, I can't delete the facebook account and all contacts it saved to the "Contact" app. The problem is, that is my friend's account, not mine. She used my ipad to logged into her facebook before.

Even I went to "Setup" to delete that Fb account, it was useless. I removed the facebook app, but all my friend's contacts from FB are still in "Contact" app. I guess the only way is to restore my iPad to the factory settings. Due to privacy concern, please fix the problem. I don't wanna see my friend's contacts in my ipad anymore! I am also worried if I use other people's ipad to log into my FB, all my FB contacts will be automatically saved in that device.
