    Last night (some time after 10:15 PM), I stopped getting Facebook updates on my Storm. I know VzW's data network was down for a bit last night, too, but that seemed to be restored and working fine this morning. Yet still, no FB updates. Thoughts, anyone?

    Check to make sure the email account that the facebook sends its alerts to is able to send messages to your BB. If this email is disabled, your BB wont get alerts.

    Yeah, I'm receiving emails again on my BB using the email address associated with my FB account. Service was down briefly last night, but seems to be working fine now. FB just didn't come back.

    I was just about to do the same thing, but maybe now I won't bother. Hmmm....

    (Thanks for the response!)

    That is very odd...

    I would recommend going though the setup wizard on the device again and reset up everything. If that doesn't help then it sounds like it might be an issue on the BIS/FB end.

    Sometimes it may be the network being down or facebook itself working on their servers but always make sure and check that your email in box isn't full to the Max I had that happen with my AOL email several times where i would forget to delete all the notifications and they wouldn't come thru after a while cause they were bouncing back due to my inbox being full to capacity...

    There's another thread on here where people were having problems opening fb comments, friend requests, etc. and today its gone to no one gets notifications on their BB but if you go to your email webserver or PC the email notifications are there. Pretty sure this is a fb issue. It sucks I know that!!

    Right. I just checked my Gmail account and the notifications are all there. (I normally have them go straight to my Trash bin, because I don't want duplicate notifications.) Must be a FB issue because it doesn't appear to be limited to the Storm or Verizon, for that matter.

    You know, I think FB must be making some changes. I also have noticed that when I post a status update with my phone now, it shows up on FB as posted "XX minutes ago via Facebook for Blackberry." Prior to the last day or two, such posts would show the mobile icon, but that was it.

    I can't even stay logged into Facebook, ever time I do it then tells me my "session has expired" and then takes an hour to log back in, only to kick me back out.

    So are they ever going to get this fixed?

    I just tried posting a comment and it is still throwing errors saying that it can't connect to Facebook. WTF?!

    You know that you can set it so that your notifications only come to your BB and won't be in your email? Under Options on your FB on BB there is a box next to "Leave email notification messages on mail server" just UNcheck that box and they won't be on your Gmail account (well once FB issues are resolved and its working properly.) Not that there is anything wrong with them going straight to your trash bin but that option is to accomplish what you want I think.

    Mine did this this morning also. I would also get the message that there was a problem connecting to the FB server or some such. A battery pull fixed that. Same thing happened last week and a battery pull fixed it.

    Did Facebook get "rebooted"? Along with my FB on BBY problems, i logged onto FB on my laptop and noticed i had missing relatives. i logged out, waited a few minutes, then logged back and all my relatives were there. Decided to try it on BBY again and now it works fine. hmmm.....
