my facebook setting keeps saying "Error Signing In" "could not communicate with the server." How do I fix this?

P-paripon

I have the same problem. I can solved by these process

1 From Ipad setting>general>reset>reset Network Settings

2 wait for reboot

3 tap facebook app

4 fill user name and password , it will reactivate FB again

Enjoys it.

Thanks so much! Have been working on this ALL day and your solution finally worked! :)

Woohoo! It worked. After months of trying everything else and checking forums - thank you! I finally have FB back on my iPad. More hours to waste LoL!

The only thing that fixed the issue for me was a factory reset of my iPad

it doesnt work i have tried it so many times already

If you have the iphone 5c, don't download Facebook through the app store. So delete the one you downloaded through app store, once you have deleted it, go back to settings, and you'll notice Facebook is still there. Well apparently, Apple has Facebook already set up on your phone, you actually have to set it up in settings. Go figure, right? So the problem is the Facebook in app store is incompatible with the 5c, and probably the 5s if I had to guess. I did this, and I no longer get prompted with that silliness. Hope it works for you all.

i have a problem my brother uses my ipad sometimes and this is what it shows im logged in to my acct on facebook and it says under the facebook logo and installed icon "there nis a problem accessing your account. please reenter the password for"my brothers name" .

and when i enter my password it gives me the error posted. ive done the deleting and redownload and the setting deleting the location thing. what do i do?

My facebook app works good, but sometimes a tab pops up telling me to go settings. When I click to go setting, it says that i have to enter my facebook password. Then it says 'could not communicate with the server". It's been happening for ages. I wanted to share a video via youtube on facebook and it told me there was an error and hat I have to go to settings again.

I have an Ipad Air and I've got it in Christmas. Please help cause it's annoying!

This message is to "sbecker31". I tried so many things that did not work before I read your post. Thanks so much!

This person fixed my problem. Thank you very much. I was so annoyed for like a week until i got around to looking up the problem haha Thanks again

So the answer to this seems to be Go into "Settings" in your I-Phone, click "Delete Account" and reenter username and password. It should fix it.

I just did this and now it's working just fine.

When I go to setting and press 'delete account' nothing happens because the password isn't enetered. But when I try to enter the password it says error server communication.

Wow- i have this same problem- and have already invested TOO much time going over the various methods of fixing- with no luck.

Im using an ipad air on ios 7.1.2. the Facebook app works fine but there is no connective use with other ipad functions - I always get the 'there was a problem accessing your account please re-enter the password for.... '

I cannot delete the account and there is no switch in privacy to use.

I get the 'Error signing in - could not communicate with the server' message too.

Really seems incredible that there could still be this problem affecting so many - not what I expected using the latest ipad with the latest ios and latest updates.

Both solutions didn't work for me

i have tried all the solutions and none worked for me. Tried to reset privacy settings and nothing worked...
