Facebook integration on IOS7.02

Using IOS 7.02 on ipad 4 16 gb wifi I get the following error message "error signing in, cannot communicate with server" when trying to log into Facebook in settings.


The Facebook app works fine, wifi works fine , all other apps work fine but this doesn't , I have tried resetting the network settings and doing a hard and soft reset. It will not let me delete the account either.


I have seen similar posts but no answers. Platform apps are turned on in Facebook too before this is suggested.


Please help !!

I'm having a similar problem. It shows "The operation can't be completed. Cocoa Error 4097" whenever I try to sign in to Facebook in Settings. I can use Fb app just fine, but can't integrate my Fb account to my phone, so all of the facebook contacts and all related data are lost. I just upgraded to iOS 7, which is turning out to be a great mistake. Anyone can help us? Please share info on how to fix Error 4097 related issues!! Thanks in advance! :)

I have the new Ipad air. Same issue. I did the soft reset, uninstalled, reinstalled. I have the IPhone 4S, app works fine, it has something to do w/the new ipad i think. I took ipad into Best Buy to check, they told me i would have to do a total reset and i am not ready to do that yet, hoping these forums will have more information. Wondering if Facebook forum says anything?

I have the same problem. In addition to that, while my Facebook seems to be working OK on my iPad and iPhone, it really is not.

I posted a photo album from my iPhoto to my Facebook using my MBP.

I shared the album on my wife's facebook page.

It shows up perfectly on her PC laptop.

But it won't show up on her iPad and iPhone.

Her iPad is working. Facebook on her iPad is also working.

But, it keeps asking her to enter her password.

She did, was told "Error Signing In"

She did all kinds of turn off turn on, close and reopen App, nothing.

And as usual, there is no Apple people in these forums.

So, we are all guessing.

Sigh.
