username@Facebook.chat jabber account not working
Whenever I try to connect to my Facebook Jabber account on Messages it gives me this
and it keeps asking for the password and username, even though they are right.

Hi
There appears to be something wrong with the link you posted to the pic.
Go to Facebook and you account settings there.
In Security I believe it is there is an option to allow Other browsers (or non regular browsers) to access the account.
Basically they know the IP addresses of the devices you are logging on from.
Their presumption is it will be a Browser.
I guess they can also tell with Mobile devices and expect them to hop around IP addresses.
It appears if you are a fixed location they presume you will use a regular browser and not consider other apps.
The setting should get around this.
I don't have Facebook so I am relying on memory about other posts as to what it is called.
