is anyone else having trouble loading Facebook on safari?

I've been trying to connect to my Facebook feed and Safari just sits there with a blank page. The games load, for some reason, but I can't seem to access my feed. Why is that?

iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2010), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

It's working fine for me. Deleting Safari cookies and history can help.



Go to your Safari menu bar, click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab then click: Manage Website Data. It may take a minute or two for cookies to populate then click Remove All.


Then go to your Safari menu bar again, click History > Clear History


Then quit and relaunch Safari then try Facebook.

If the above doesn't work, go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db and move it to the trash.


Go to Safari Preferences/Extensions and turn all extensions off. Test. If okay, turn the extensions on one by one until you figure out what extension is causing the problem.

If that doesn't work, try running this program in your normal account , then copy and paste the output in a reply. The program was created by etresoft, a frequent contributor. Please use copy and paste as screen shots can be hard to read. On the screen with Options, please open Options and check the bottom 2 boxes before running. Click “Share Report” button in the toolbar, select “Copy Report” and then paste into a reply. This will show what is running on your computer. No personal information is shown.
