I have been trying to fix my facebook setting but I keep getting an error message after inputting my password. "could not communicate with the server" keeps popping up. [DELETE ACCOUNT] doesn't work either. It doesn't delete my facebook account at all. What else can I do?
iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 6.1.1, facebook
Have you tried signing in to facebook.com through Safari?
fb through safari is never a problem. but i don't like using safari. i just want the regular fb for ipad.
I have same problem just like them.. here are 2 screenies
The next thing to try is to force close all apps and reset. Double-tap the home button, then swipe UP on the app window (not the icon underneath). Do this for all open apps, then reset the device: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. Try again after the reboot.
still the same... i can only open facebook in to safari which is annoying and some application needs facebook access like Hayday.. i reinstalled facebook 3 times and ive done this rebooting so many times yet no good result... plss help
If I were experiencing this problem, what would I try...let's see...maybe try changing your password on Facebook, then trying to log in with the app. I just don't know what else to suggest.
I am having the same issues. I have tried resetting my PW and this still does not resolve the issue. I have looked on other forums and they say it may be an IOS issue with an old email address and to change your email address but I don't want to do this.
Any other thoughts ?

I'm having the same problems. Have you been able to figure it out yet?
Me, too. Same connection problem and error message EVERY TIME I try to login to FB on my iPhone 5c. I hope somebody on this forum can help us.
Having the same problem. Tried everything except restoring to factory settings. I am scared to do that. Please help!
I'm having the same problem. I've tried all suggested, but still is not working. I dont know what else to do.
It seems to be a Facebook issue and not an Apple problem. People are saying it is due to the latest update of Facebook. At this point the only recourse is to use Facebook through Safari and wait for a bug fix from Facebook.
THIS HAS WORKED

Go into settings/privacy/Facebook and disable the button.
Open your Facebook app and login.
Once logged in go back to that button and enable.
You may have to re-enter your password but the error will be gone.
Good luck.

Did the trick! Nothing else has and I surely didn't want to reset my device! Thanks!
This worked for me, too, on my iPhone 5c. Thank you!!!
my facebook setting keeps saying "Error Signing In" "could not communicate with the server." How do I fix this?
