So whenever my official jailbreak Facebook app updates it redirects to some random *** YouTube video in safari. I've tried logging out and logging back in, respringing, and resetting my iPad. None of this has worked. It doesn't happen if I go to Facebook in safari or on my laptop. It just started yesterday. Anyone else having this issue?

Facebook on iPad YouTube video redirect

The EXACT same thing is happening to me! WTF! I don't know how to fix it. It always redirects me to safari and specifically to a preview video of TruTV's extremely lame show "Operation Repo."

My iPad 2 is stock, not jailbroken.

You are all very lucky! Not being able to get on to Facebook should be considered a GOOD thing. Too much info, accessible by too many people, leads to too much trouble.:p

Yeah I just noticed it's taking me to videos in the feed. It must've coincided with all the changes they've recently done. Maybe they did it to make the app difficult to use since they're supposedly coming out with an official app soon.

I've had the same issue & Googled to try & find an answer. According to Facebook forums, it's only an issue with iPad 2. Some people have had luck clearing history, cache etc... But that didn't work for me.

Hopefully on Tuesday when they announce iPhone (whatever) they will also release the Facebook iPad app also & that will fix this.

I have an unbroken IPad2

I have an unbroken IPad2 and the facebook app is doing the same thing so I dont think it has anything to do with being jailbroke or not....
