Facebook playing up?? Privacy settings...

Gonzo0 · 10 Dec 2009 at 17:40

Facebook keeps popping up telling me i need to choose my privacy settings even though i have done this numerous times now.

Have tried logging off and restarting firefox but the problem persists.

Anyone else getting this??

they've made changes to them. added stuff you can hide from people or something liek that. so they'll keep asking you till you change them

I re-installed my Facebook as I got the same problem and it seems to have sorted it.

Had to edit some ini files too but got there in the end.

Surely its all stored on their servers??

Yeah, mine was in French but once I reinstalled it it went away

Mine used to just go to the same page it was already on after clicking a link, but I repaired through control panel and now, problem fixed!

I downloaded a cracked version which gets around all this privacy stuff. Was a pain to get working but you should see some of the 'hidden' pics on there :eek:

I don't understand. Re-installing should be easy, are you sure you downloaded the latest version?

Gonzo0 · 10 Dec 2009 at 18:03

The only problem I seem to be having is that I have no Facebook chat, using Firefox, I hear people using IE aren't having this problem?

It's childs-play it just requires a simple reinstallation. What's there to not get :confused:

Yes I noticed it yesterday. During the night and today I have been able to browse people (who are not on my contacts list) 's profile pictures, relationship status etc (whichever is not on private). I still got mine secured via the control panel.

Just re-installed mine, and it works fine now.. thanks for the advice.

CliffyBiro · 10 Dec 2009 at 18:10

You must still be using the 'lite' version. Get the full one!
