Hi all!

 

Does anybody know why i suddenly have to keep putting in my password into Facebook in Safari on my macbook air?  up until a few days ago it would log in perfectly well.  now it keeps asking my to log back in.

    Safari/Preferences/Passwords - find the entry for Facebook, select it, and remove it. Then sign into Facebook and see if it is now stored correctly in Passwords.

    It stores the password, but Facebook still logs itself out.  but not on my iPad or iPhone.  they remember!!  and i have reset the keychain too.   and still it logs out....

    this is what i did i worked with me...

     

    it does that because it needs a code sent from facebook.

     

    i went to system preferences - clicked on internet accounts - deleted the facebook account - and add it back again - then sign in again to facebook and they will send a code to your phone and once you put the code in everything is fixed.
