Why Can't I Log in to Facebook? Unique Problem.
Okay, so I have created a Facebook account, and I think I have tried absolutely everything. It's pretty simple what has happened to me. I created an account successfully, but now I can't seem to log in. When I try the first time, it tells me that I need to log in to view the page and gives me a box to type in my password. Then, on every successive attempted login, it tells me the password and email don't match up, even though I know that it does. I have checked caps lock.
I am pretty sure that I have tried everything (I am pretty computer-savvy if I do say so myself), but I may be missing something. I have tried deleting the cookies on my computer, enabling cookies, checking the firewall, restarting the computer, and deleting unused programs. I have searched the web and have not found anyone who has my problem. It seems very unique.
I am running Firefox 2.0.0.14 on Windows XP SP1. I have also tried on IE (I can't remember the version and I don't feel like opening it up). Of course, my firends are irked at me because they keep sending me friend requests and I am not accepting. It is also flooding my inbox, and I can't turn it off because I can't log in!
Any and all help well and truly appreciated.

I can't get into my facebook because it says the certificate is wrong or something and it advises me not to go in there its the website security certificate. Anyone know what thats all about. -
Inappropriate?what the hell? i spent good time putting together my profile on my facebook page. now it continues shapeshifting into my three different listed email accounts and, I can only assume, different passwords. viruses, or any other source? the world waits and wonders because the CuSupport feedback is nonexistent.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?I have been locked out of my account for 2 weeks, with absolutely NO response from Facebook. I have emailed them 3 times. If you're sick of being ignored by Facebook, sign my petition!

Inappropriate?Facebook tells me that my sign-in does not match my password. This problem occurred when I purchased a new computer. I can understand that this might be an issue, but....so far Facebook has not helped me, though I have repeatedly asked for assistance.

Inappropriate?Sorry hun can't help I can log into my facebook account if I use Firefox in Ubuntu, but if I use firefox in Windows XP then I get an error message. Explain that.
I’m frustrated
-
Inappropriate?Well, here it is, 8 days after I last heard from the "Facebook Team..." and no help whatsoever. One wonders why so many folks are addicted to this website....obviously they have not experienced such extraordinary circumstances as have I....like buying a new computer. BTW, since I purchased and activated the new computer, I have had no trouble logging into my many other password websites--banking, online stores, web-based email, mortgage..etc. The issue seems to be exclusively with Facebook. What a waste of time. Good thing it isn't linked to my job or anything seemingly important.

I totally agree and maybe its time for a vacation from fb~possibly permanent if it causes this much annoyance. -
Inappropriate?Hi,
I work in a company and we use Bluecoat so i can't access facebook, i used to login on this link https://facebook.com but now nothing is working after they realized that everyone is using it, they changed something on the Bluecoat and proxy and now it's not working anymore even vtunnel and beatfiltering.
Any clue if there's an alternative way?

Network Timeout
The server at login.facebook.com is taking too long to respond.
The requested site did not respond to a connection request and the browser has stopped waiting for a reply.
* Could the server be experiencing high demand or a temporary outage? Try again later.
* Are you unable to browse other sites? Check the computer's network connection.
* Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Inappropriate?I;m getting the same error
The server at login.facebook.com is taking too long to respond.
MY Girlfriend can login to her account properly...this sucks
I’m frustrated
-
Inappropriate?i had the same problem with mozilla firefox, but then switched to internet explorer and face book let me right in. I dont know whats going on with firefox but it scuks. so try internet explorer.
I’m confused bout it
-
I have problem with both firefox and IE 7 so for me both sucks =) However, I can log in with my mobile so I guess the problem for me isn't my password.... -
Inappropriate?The same thing keeps is happening to me--I try to log in and it says my e-mail and password don't match. I try to reset password, and it tells me that Facebook users have reported my e-mail domain as abusive. I am using a hotmail account.

Inappropriate?The EXACT same thing has been happening to me for the past 2 weeks! Please fix it!!! I try to log-in and it has been sending me this pop-up box saying either "Your account is under maintance", or "Your password and email don't match up." This is beyound ridiculous. My account has literally been under maintance for over 2 weeks! It's a fluke when I actually succeed in loging in, but then it won't let me write on anyone's wall, or check my comments on my photos, or even look at other's profiles! It says that we are friends, but then it also says that "The user you are trying to see limits who can see their profile". Well, since I am that users friend... should I be able to access their profile?
I’m annoyed!
-
Inappropriate?So, once again, I went to log in and once again it said, "Account Unavailable
Your account is temporarily unavailable due to site maintenance. It should be available again within a few hours. We apologize for the inconvenience." A few hours is incorrect! This has been a few weeks! I am seriously ready to delete my account as soon as I can log in. Maybe someone tapped into my account? Maybe somebody reported me as spam? Can anyone help me?
I’m frusterated.

<info+nvcevmr@facebook.com>:
What worked for me in the past was to spam Facebook on ALL of their various customer service links, repeatedly, several times a day. The link I posted above was only one of those that can be found:

Do not give up sending requests for help and service. Just do it over and over and over. Good luck! -
Inappropriate?Anybody else getting jibberish when you try to access facebook? I don't even get a loggin error just jibberish, this has been going on for weeks and I could on occasion get on but now the last week or so nothing just jibberish across the screen?????
-
Inappropriate?This is what I have gotten all day. Anyone else? Your account is temporarily unavailable due to site maintenance. It should be available again within a few hours. We apologize for the inconvenience.
-
Yes I've got that too!! Its been going on for almost 24hours and since I have the Farm Town and Cafe World applications going it's REALLY annoying me -
Oh my goodness, same thing here, I am waiting and waiting...two days now. I'm wondering does it ever come back up without interruption again? -
Inappropriate?This is what i get when i try to log into Facebook

I’m frustrated and mad

Inappropriate?why can't I log in to face book?
-
Inappropriate?Okay--my problem cleared up just after I downloaded the newest Firefox (3.5.4). Working fine for me now--don't know if that helps anyone else, but maybe!
I’m happy
-
Inappropriate?My problems didn't start until I downloaded Firefox 3.5.4. Now I can't login to facebook on my laptop. I have to use my old desktop machine to login. Why does one machine work and the other not?
I’m confused
-
My laptop won't let me login using IE, Firefox, Chrome, etc. It's almost as if my laptop has been added to some sort of block list. Since I'm NAT'ing through our firewall, I don't really see that happening as the other machines here can all access FB. -
Inappropriate?I've had problems the last two days...finally got on last night, and it worked fine this morning, but this afternoon I get first the message that my e-mail and password don't match...I then tried to change my password and I get the message invalid e-mail address. I've been trying the last six hours with no luck. I've tried Internet Explorer as well as Firefox (new download). My daughter can log in to her facebook account from my computer so it has to be with Facebook!
I’m frustated.

Inappropriate?I can't log in since yesterday. It was fine at work at 5 pm but then at home at 9.30 pm it didn't work and now its 12.40 am the next day and I can't log in with IE7 or Mozilla Firefox 3.0.15 and not even when I updated Firefox to 3.5.5..
I have a laptop that's one year old and I also tried with my old (7 years old) laptop but I get the same problem. This is what I get from Internet Explorer:

How to disable the URL Error Redirection? (this is a link, Sofia's remark)
*********************
Mozilla gives a similar text, I can't copy it because it's in swedish =)
something like: "Connection was interrupted. The server login.facebook.com doesn't respond. and etc"
I contacted facebook on a link that I thought my password has been "taken" or something and they responded directly (probably automaticly) and then I had to confirm my e-mail address and then I haven't heard anything. Reading about other peoples' problem here doesn't make me to positive about getting a resolution in the near future =(
However, I can still log in to facebook on my mobile (!) and hopefully at work on monday. I mean having a good motivation on going to work on a monday is hard to see as a negative thing =)
I’m confused
-
Inappropriate?Sofia, I hope you were able to log in on Monday, but I have my doubts. This is day 5 for me. I received one response from an e-mail I sent to Facebook asking me to reply to that e-mail to verify the e-mail address was mine. I've heard nothing since and I'm responding to that e-mail every day. I've tried Firefox, Internet Explorer and three different computers with no luck.
I’m FRUSTRATED.
-
remember to hit all of their "REPLY" resources, repeatedly. There are quite a few "Contact" avenues. -
Inappropriate?I obtained about 4 e-mail addresses for Facebook and e-mailed them all this morning. My account has been locked up for a week. The e-mail address that responded with "problem is resolved, I've reset your password" is abuse+nbl1yna@facebook.com . I hope it works for you. I'm back on.
I’m happy, life is good.

Inappropriate?I have been having the security messages from Chrome and URL invalid from IE and Mozilla. I am ready to give up my FB account because I can rarely log in without receiving a warning. According to Chrome the server that should be login.facebook.com is identifying itself as a248.e.akamai.net. I have no idea what that is or what is causing these problems I didn't have any trouble until I upgraded to Windows 7.
-
Inappropriate?Joe i was experiencing same thing just like what you're experiencing now. i think the fault is either from somewhere.... when you are typing your email and password make sure they're correct and if you are really sure they are correct but still expericing same error , then click on the "Forgotten password?" or " resend me my password". i think this can help...
I’m confident
-
Inappropriate?im having the same problem, it was working fine until i change my email address now aint been able to log in since, facebook have emailed me to confirm my new email address but heard nothing since.......:(
