I am running fully updated 13.04 64-bit. I simply cannot get empathy/UOA
to connect to facebook. When I add the account in UOA everything seems
to go well, facebook login page loads, it logs in successfully, facebook
recognizes the session as "safari on linux"; but upon completing the
setup in UOA empathy refuses to connect to it and keeps telling me it
requires authorization.
I've Tried the following: Removing the account from UOA
Ending all active sessions on facebook and deleting the ubuntu app
rebooting
adding account in UOA, and allowing the ubuntu app to manage my messages etc...
Didn't help at all. pidgin connects fine on the same computer.
Sometimes it does let me add it and it works for a while, but eventually
this issue happens again and leaves me totally unable to successfully
add a facebook account for quite some time, until it randomly decides it
wants to work again. Empathy/UOA in 13.04 has been unreliable to the
point of ridiculousness, the application is basically unusable and can't
handle the one basic task of an instant messaging program, which is
connecting to my accounts reliably.
