Mac wont connect to Facebook account

Mac keeps saying "can't connect to the account "Facebook" and wont accept "Facebook" password

The same is happening to me since 1 or 2 days ago. Checking the system Console I am pretty sure is related with failing to connect to https://webdav.facebook.com:8443/


It appears to be something wrong with the SSL port 8443, cause you can check with port 443 with Safari and works fine.


The following record appears to me every time the "Can't not connect to Facebook" appears :

I've also reported to Apple @ Feedback - MacBook Pro - Apple


Not sure what happened, but since May 20th, 2018, the connector for Facebook has constantly demanded to reenter the password for my account. When I intentionally enter the wrong pass, the dialog window does tell me the pass is wrong. After entering the correct pass, the process completes.

However, about a minute later, a toast/popup window demands my password again. This process never ceases until I delete facebook from my internet accounts.



I've checked my KeyChain Access and found the correct keys are saved from FaceBook. However, the console logs show an error connecting to https://webdav.facebook

Not sure if this problem is an issue from recent Apple updates or Facebook certificate/server timeout issue.
