Great to see such a great response here. Let me address a few things here. One, I have had Mountain Lion installed for a few weeks, and there had been no problem working with ML and Facebook. It just started this morning when I pulled FB up to write something. I need to use FB for work, so not using it is not an option. I have tried the movile version, menu tab and the main website through safari and still nothing. Which ever one I go to says What's On Your Mind then Combo Bob. For those of you who wrote this has been here for years, it just started showing up for me today. I didn't update anything or make any changes. I really appreciate the people who suggested work arounds that work for them. I finally figured a work around in Menu Tab but still not sure what I did so will have to play with a little more. Everything was fine when I went to bed last night, so not sure how this problem just started happening this morning. There is no way to contact Facebook, no phone number, actually I think there is a phone number, but good luck trying to get a person on the phone, and if you email them you will just get a standard response, as I tried this a few years ago. I guess they look at it as there is the Facebook way and that is it. Facebook would make a great dictatorship. If others are having this problem, please do let us know if you figure out any work arounds.
