Since upgrade to IOS 8.3 I can no longer post/share on Facebook

On April 9th I upgraded to IOS 8.3. Since then I am unable to post/share news or photos to Facebook. When I have something to share from a news app and I share I get the option of icons as follows: Mail, More, More. I do not want to share to my mail. When I select the first more icon Activities screen comes up with only a Mail icon when I select the second more icon the only thing on my screen is Activities. When I thought I found a way to post to FB I get the message that I have to be connected to FB; I never had to be connect to FB before this problem occurred.

It seems that each time an upgrade to the operating systems happens something always goes wrong. I am hoping you can give me some information on when this problem will be resolved.

Thank you so much for your time and support. Hope to hear from someone soon.

Sincerely,

Glenda Gonzalez

Have you done a reset since the update?

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).

Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Have you tried logging out of Facebook and back in? If that doesn't work, I would try uninstalling and reinstalling Facebook.

That is the first thing I did. No luck; things are still the same.

Check your Facebook settings thoroughly - maybe something got changed there. That's the only other thing I can think of.

I have checked all FB settings; still unable to post. I really think this is because of the IOS upgrade. This happened some time ago after a previous upgrade. I just hope Apple will look into this and come up with a fix.

Thank you for your support.

I am contemplating updating to 8.3 but what is the 4 digit security it is asking for ?

When I upgraded to IOS 8.3 there was no 4 digit security code. I am sorry that I did upgrade. This is not the first time after upgrading that I have had problems. The last time it took Apple awhile to work out all the bugs with the new upgrade; so far nothing has been done to correct the new problems with this recent upgrade. I am losing faith in Apple 😢

That's the same code you use to unlock your screen.

It's not the upgrade causing your problem. This is the first report I've seen of this issue, and it's not happening on my devices nor anyone else I know (we have quite a few company iPhones and no one has reported this problem).

Have you checked under Restrictions?
