hi all forum newbie here...ive had the N900's IM client running Skype,MSN and Facebook with minimal problems...most of them have been discussed...im not sure if my facebook issue is related to the web site being recently updated again...all of the others sign in fine apart from FB which constantly displays 'Authentication failed'....i tried adding other FB accounts like my partners and they seem to connect fine...am i right in saying that the N900 stores a FB login cookie which is linked to my account and password in the system cache? if i somehow get rid of this will the device connect again?....ive tried deleting my FB IM account entry from the N900 and reinstalling it and also doing the same with the conversations plugins...also ive tried changing my FB login email but this doesnt work either...any help would be much appreciated:cool:

I got around the problem simply by removing the account, rebooting (don't know why that helped), and recreating the account.

Thinking about it... this may have been when I used Jabber to do FB.. hmm. Whatever, the timing is right. I have since then got FB working, but with the usual duplicates/merging bug, so I just disabled the account.

But what gets me is, if FB now works with XMPP/Jabber, then why is it so difficult to get this working just under the Facebook name and icon. ?

I can deal with not having people's facebook status being retrieved (though it is nice), I just want it to be shown as Facebook, not Jabber.

Also, to anyone else, I'm on MSN Haze, and it seems flawless in this version.
