When I click on "Facebook" in online accounts, it starts to load the page inside the System Settings window. Then it opens in an external browser window. I log in, it says "success" but the System Settings window does not recognize this and I am unable to complete the account setup. This works for other online accounts, but not Facebook.
After this occurs any time I try to open Online Accounts, the window open and then closes within a second or so. I have to log out of the session than log back in in order to be able to access online accounts. I tried removing previous authorizations on Facebook's side, tried removing/re-adding "Online Accounts" from the Software Center but no luck. Currently using 13.04 x 64 with ALL updates applied. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center-signon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1132030 Title: Facebook account setup opens in external browser, unusable Status in “gnome-control-center-signon” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: When I click on "Facebook" in online accounts, it starts to load the page inside the System Settings window.
