    Try a battery pull. If that doesn't work delete and reinstall the app.

    I've stopped getting notification too. I was thinking it is because I am using SocialScope. I did delete FB and re-installed plus the good ol'battery pull and still no FB notifications.

    That may be the prob. I set up an email filter to auto delete fb email notifications and stopped receiving them. Once I removed filter, started getting them again. Try turning on email notifications from your actual fb account.

    Only thing I don't like is that notifications don't show up in bb email (only show up in fb app) but fill up actual inbox. Hope this helps.

    Go to your settings on face book and turn them back on. That may have been my issue as well, I also stopped all emails but I don't know why one would affect the other.

    I am not sure if you did this or not but you have to register your phone in the facebook settings on your pc. Once you do that you will receive an email which you click the link to verify the connection. After that you should get your FB notifications. Click on settings and then on mobile to add your phone number.

    Make sure that the email that you set up on your blackberry is the same email that you use on facebook. If not it wont send you notifications. You can change your email on facebook from your PC, just go to settings and its right there. Just change that to the email that your blackberry uses.

    I was having the same issue. You need to go on to facebook and change your email address or update it. What I did was changed it to another working email address that i had then changed it back to the one i wanted the notifications going too and it worked.

    I turned off my email notifications on FB because I ONLY want to get notifications on the FB app -- NOT in my email inbox. I've read mixed-info on whether this is possible.

    Now I don't get either one - email or FB notifications.

    One user said the email address must be the SAME one, and someone else said you have to have a different email address (one that you rarely use) on FB to send the notifications to.

    Now I'm thoroughly confused. Can someone please give me the "*****'s version," please?

    I got my notifications back. I deleted FB app and re-installed it from App World. Then did a battery pull. All is working now.
