Mac constantly asking for Facebook password

I am having the very same - very aggravating - problem. I have it on my iMac and also my Mac Book Pro -- and even my iPad! Is this some systemic thing?

Been happening here for about a week. Have tried everything I've seen recommended all over the internet. Only solution is to delete the account until a fix is announced.

I want to thank everyone for posting who has done so thus far. I've been battling this for an hour or more, myself, today and was on vacation and away from home so didn't notice it til i returned this afternoon. I'm having the exact same problem and have deleted keychain remnants and even changed my FB password--which will wreak a lot of havoc as I need to log back in to several things now. Anyway, I'll keep watch on this thread for an update as none of what everyone else has done has resolved the "can't connect" issue.

Same issue here. Tried many things and even when able to login with App specific password, still when trying to publish something asking for password and return "unable to verify account name or password"

Just adding my voice to the choir. Same issue here, and it has been maddening! Finally came here to look for solutions and it appears there are none at this point? Hopefully, as you, say Apple will get its hands around this and fix it with an update to come soon. Thank you all for identifying your issues so I know my machine hasn't been taken over by a bot army. 🙂

Same thing is happening to me in Italy. Since 2-3 days I'm not allowed to post pictures through Photo or Instagram. I can access with my browser, but Internet Account keep asking Facebook password and cannot recognize it.

I also have this problem and it's quite annoying; however, I did a little testing and figured out that it also is happening to the LinkedIn integration. I'm guessing this may have something to do with the new European privacy rules.

This is seriously SO annoying. If it's Apple's fault, they need to get themselves together and figure it out; if it's Facebook, I want to know WHY and WHAT to do about it. I know it's such a first world problem to have to go to the Facebook account on my internet tabs, but it's CONVENIENT having my notifications pop up on my Mac. Someone needs to figure their sh*t out.

Same problem, tried the standard work arounds that could deal with corrupt preferences data (removing account integration and re-adding on macOS / deleting active sessions on FB so that we are starting with a clean login), and the issue persists. The only thing I have to add is that I'm not using FB 2 factor auth, and some people who have this problem are, so it doesn't seem to be directly correlated to the problem in any way.

Also had this problem, that I first noticed towards the end of May. I spent an hour on line with Apple support, basically going through and removing all my accounts and recreating them.

I have the Problem on a MacBook Air, and Mac Mini, all running 10.13.4.

I just updated to 10.13.5 and retried, but still have the problem. All the other accounts are fine, just Facebook not working.

At least now I know I'm not alone. This is a really annoying problem. I didn't really how much i just used the share button to avoid using the facebook share buttons on websites that I don't always trust their code.

Facebook is shaking his *** in relation to Cambridge Analitica and GDPR. They changed apps integration and prior to GDPR in Europe they change other connections braking things. Now developers need to sort this out. Some other companies like LinkedIn also do some changes without informing what and when. I noticed that some iOS games are struggling with publishing materials on Facebook due to lack of permission. It is possible when the game is authenticating through Facebook app, but in another way its broken as well.

This make the most sense. Developers are scrambling to meet new regulations. I've received a raft of emails in the last two weeks from app companies announcing that they have updated their privacy regulations. Too bad Facebook and Apple aren't more transparent about the problem.

I was about to descend into tracing messages when I discovered this thread (phew!). I considered all the possibilities and tried all the likely solutions/circumventions listed here ...yesterday, before stumbling upon this ...today (idiot). I have now signed up as a participant in the collective 'load sharing' - as of now, I've given up doing anything on the issue.

Looking at single points of failure though, (eg twitter and LinkedIn integration works) our mac-fb disintegration could be collateral damage from Cook's assault on Zuckerberg using his shiny new smart bombs: "Enhanced Intelligent Tracking Prevention" and "App Limits".

A retaliatory change in facebook's API/Auth protocol?

A new (failing) cookie/script restriction in macOS?

Who knows?

'Zuckerberg's people' will be talking to 'Cook's people' on the red telephones to quietly resolve the issue, Khrushchev-Kennedy style. Meantime, mac/fb users repetitively share random safari pages to their timelines to check current integration status, knowing they'll hear nothing from Zuckerberg or Cook who'll have a non-disclosure clause in their resolution agreement. Users (definition): the pawn sacrifices that protect the game strategy. Lol, you thought you were a valued customer? 😂 😳

Same here. Happening for the last three days.
