| How to fix Facebook Page Not Loading Properly |
In a situation like this, if my Facebook is not opening the first thing I do is…
CLEAR CACHE DATA
Yeah, you know this exists right? Maybe not.
Anytime you install a new app or program on your device, it spikes up this cache to start storing data for the new app you just installed.
This cache doesn’t store your login details. It only works well to help make the use of apps easier in the sense that you don’t have to repeat the same task twice. It autocompletes previous actions thus, reducing the stress of doing it yourself again and again.
So calculating the amount of data stored on Cache right from scratch is already so much evidence that causes facebook to misbehave.
Solution 1 is to delete old cache data, giving space for fresh data to resolve the “Facebook page not loading properly” problem.
How To Clear Cache Data
For Windows:
- Goto your browser Settings or Option. Depends on the browser.
- Now Locate and click on Privacy and Security
In the Cookies and Site Data section,
- Click Clear data and untick Cookies and site data
Make sure you tick Cache web content.
- Now Clear.
The above steps are how to clear cache data via Windows Mozilla Firefox. So you can apply it to other browsers based on what you have learned here. There is no much difference.
This can be done on mobile as well.
I.e you can also clear cache on the Facebook mobile app, whether lite or official Facebook app. Read below…
On Mobile
- Go to Settings
- Scroll down and click Apps
- Select the Facebook app
- Click Storage and Clear Cache.
I believe the above tips have helped you resolve this facebook problem. Watch the short video below to keep you guided.
I’m not done yet. Just in case the above tips don’t resolve the “Facebook app not loading properly problem”, I have other tips for you.
ALLOW, BLOCK, OR CLEAR COOKIES
If the above step doesn’t help you resolve the Facebook loading problem, you should consider checking your browser to make sure Cookies and Javascript are turned on.
Another thing is to Clear Cookies and Site Data and starts everything afresh.
Yes, Clearing Cookies and private site data will wipe off your Facebook Login Details from the web browser in use.
So you simply have to sign in again. Trust me, you won’t have to battle with “Facebook page not loading properly” as a problem anymore.
How To Achieve This(i.e Allow or Clear Cookies and Site Data)-
- Goto Browser Settings Or Option rather. It all depends on the browser.
- Locate and select “Privacy and Security Settings“.
- Scroll down and Tick “Accept cookies and site data from websites (recommended)” to Allow Cookies.
- Tick “Block cookies and site data (may cause websites to break)” to Block
- Click Clear Data and Tick Cookies and Site Data
- Now Click Clear.
TRY USING m.facebook.com INSTEAD
In a case like this when a Facebook page is not loading properly, after trying the above and the problem persists, I quickly dive into the Facebook mobile site (i.e http://m.facebook.com) for fewer troubles, and guess what? It works.
It even browses faster than the official web for windows, mac, and likes.
Now instead of trying to hit your on the wall consigning this facebook loading problem, you should browse Facebook using their mobile site.
Yeah, I think that’s better. It’s fast, responsive, and easy to understand.
The only thing is that it’s not a full landscape screen stuff like that of official web.facebook.com. It is compressed to a mobile phone screen size view.
But that’s not a problem right?
As long as you can access Facebook pages without any problem.
Give http://m.facebook.com a shot and let me know your experience.
But what If I’m using a Mobile Browser or App?
Then this step is limited to Airtel and Etisalat network for now.
If you use Facebook on your mobile browser, try using Freebasic.com to log in.
Alternatively,
Use free.facebok.com or 0.facebook.com, input your login details, and log in.
Free basic is a service launched by Facebook for you to visit popular websites on your phone for free, I mean with zero data/airtime balance.
But there is a problem with the free.facebook.com site. Originally you are not allowed to view photos, videos, or go through links using free basic but a friend of mine Wisdom Obioha has written an article on how to view photos on Facebook free mode.
Do well to check out his info and try out the above tips to helps resolve facebook page errors.
CHECK INTERNET CONNECTION OR DO A FAST RESET
This one is another big problem.
As you already know, without an internet connection you can do nothing online. It’s even Impossible to access even google without an internet connection or zero data balance.
No way.
So this can be the problem with your Facebook pages.
Try checking your internet connection if it’s turned on otherwise check your data balance. Who knows if you have zero data left.
And if your data balance is the problem, I consider you check out a good list of cheap data plans at affordable prices and as well how to reduce data usage on your device so you won’t have to waste money on data the next time you purchase any.
MUST READ: I turned ON My Data Connections But There is No Signal And Its Not Browsing.
CONNECTION TEST PROBLEM. Airplane mode stuff.
Is your network going through a test?
A connection Test is a period whereby your network connection goes off without even a single network signal left. At times, it happens all of a sudden while you’re surfing the internet.
At this point, you won’t be able to make calls talkless of browsing the internet.
Quick Tip To Bypass This Test
Turn ON Airplane mode and turn it OFF in 20seconds.
To turn ON Airplane Mode,
- Drag down the notification bar and click on Airplane Icon.
Or
- Go to Settings and Tap More.
- Turn ON the Airplane mode switch.
That’s it.
CHECK IF THE DATE AND TIME ARE CORRECT.
Wrong Date and Time settings can make the Facebook page not load properly.
Try checking your date and time settings and make sure they are up to date.
TRY USING A DIFFERENT BROWSER TO LOGIN FACEBOOK.
Which browser are you using? Browser type can be a problem.
Are you making use of firefox? Trying using chrome.
Now I’m not trying to tell you that Mozilla Firefox is bad for opening Facebook but at times any browser can mishave and that’s why I always recommend you have two or more browsers installed on your system so that you can do a quick swap in times like this.
If the problem persists then you can always consider deactivating security and Adblock software on your browser.
DEACTIVATE ADS BLOCK AND SECURITY SOFTWARE
Maybe your browser has an Ad-block feature on it.
Ad Block software is designed to block and removes advertisements on pages when browsing. And that is to say, this Adblock can cause Facebook not to load properly.
So I recommend you turn OFF this third-party software if you want Facebook to respond to you.
In case you don’t know where this third-party software is located, See the below screenshot…
It’s usually at the top right corner of your browser screen.
Deactivate this software, let’s see if other steps are necessary.
Facebook page still not loading properly?😠 (sad Face)
I believe the issue is resolved by now. And if not, read below…
ARE PROXY SETTINGS CORRECT?
Wrong proxy settings can cause your Facebook not to loading properly.
Kindly go through your browser settings and make sure proxy settings are correct and well intact.
But I Don’t Know Where To Find Proxy Setting In My Browser, Where is it Located?
Don’t worry I have quick tips for you.
- Goto browser Settings(Usually located at the top right/left corner of browser screen as either Settings or Options) by clicking 3dots.
- Click General or Advanced Settings. (Depends on Browser)
- Then Scroll down, you will see Network Proxy Settings.
- Kindly click through the active clickable button there (e.g like Settings… in the above screenshot) and set up your proxy correctly.
IS YOUR CURRENT BROWSER OUTDATED? UPDATE IT.
This one is simple and clear to understand.
Facebook and other popular websites regularly update their websites and in the process of these updates, they implement new codes in their web scripts in other to increase users’ engagement with activities on their website.
Now, this is it. After running this update, the newly added changes may fail to work with your current browser and that’s why you should quickly check if there is an update or the latest version of your current browser and download it.
Here is a link to the latest versions of…
Update your current browser and try loading Facebook again.
IN CONCLUSION,
Facebook page not loading properly only arises when some settings on your browser are wrong.
And believe me, anytime Facebook pages won’t load, my first To-Do option is to Clear Cache on the browser, Allow cookies and javascript, then if the error persists that’s when I go further and try implementing the rest.
If after trying out the above tips and Facebook doesn’t load properly, then maybe Facebook servers are down. You should consider waiting for some time and try again later.
And by now I believe the Facebook page not loading properly is not a problem for you anymore.
Over to you.
Are you facing the same issue or similar?
Hope the above tips work for you.
Let me know your experiences with Facebook.
More Peace And Blessings Guys…
