Facebook tap to post not working

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have since getting my iPhone 5, been able to use the Facebook tap to post feature in the Notification Centre. But its a little while since using it last and I don't know when the problem started.

 

Basically when I swipe down the Notification Centre, and then touch the tap to post for Facebook, I get the following shown:

However, the Facebook app works fine. Also the tap to tweet for Twiiter in the Notification Centre works fine too.

 

I've tried deleting my Facebook account off of my iPhone, deleted the Facebook app, turned the iPhone off and then back on, re-installed the app and logged in, but the problem is still there.

 

I've also tried the Facebook tap to post in the Notification Centre on my iPad and I have the same problem on there too.

 

Is any one else experiencing this problem?

 

I expect its just a temporary issue with either Apple and or Facebook, I was just curious to see if others are experiencing the same issue as me.

Apologise for not updating before.

 

I tried it out on Monday like I mentioned earlier and it worked fine and it continues to work fine now.

 

Not sure what the cause of the problem was but its certainly been a strange one.

 

Thanks immensely to everyone especially Liquid for the help and suggestions given, it was greatly appreciated.

 

I'll put the big green tick on this one now Smiley LOL

It's working ok for me, although iphone 4.


Sorry to be a pain, but do you have iOS 6.0 installed or the latest version which is 6.0.1, I just remembered there was an update recently, so perhaps that could be the reason for my fault.
 
You'll be able to find out by going into settings/general/about, so far down you should see version and beside this it shows which version of the software is intstalled. Thanks.

I have 6.01 and the facebook app has also been updated recently.


Thanks jonsie. Its got me baffled, I've tried everything I can think of, and there seems very little on the net about it too.

 

I've even tried to delete the actual Facebook app, has this still allows the tap to post option in the notification centre, but I still have the problem, so it can't be the actual Facebook app that's causing the problem.

 

Strange thing is. If I go into the Photos app and click on the share icon, and then choose Facebook, it then brings up the little Facebook window (the same as you get in the tap to post) and from there I can post the photo.

 

There's only two other things I can try to solve it. One is, restore off of a backup and see if the problem is solved. Or, restore as a new iPhone, this method, I can't see it not sorting the solving it.

 

Thanks for the help.

I don't suppose anything has changed in the main iOS settings for Facebook? You know the bit where you can connect your account.
Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong. So Ive been told wink

I'm just in the process of restoring from a backup, to see if that solves it, if it doesn't, then its going to be a restore as new. I think if all else fails, the restore as new should solve it slight_smile
