Facebook Temporarily Unavailable Due To Site Maintenance
Facebook seems to be having issues tonight with a lot of users accounts. I’ve been notified by some people that when they login to Facebook, and attempt to go to their Facebook profile, they get the following message:
~ Your account is temporarily unavailable due to site maintenance. It should be available again within a few hours. We apologize for the inconvenience. ~
With this problem affecting a lot users on Facebook, I’m guessing that Facebook is performing server maintenance. However, there could just isolated technical problems as well.
Is anyone else experiencing Facebook problems tonight?
Has anyone figured out a way to resolve this error message and login successfully to their Facebook profile?
Let us know in the comments!

So is this legit??? I need my Fb for school immediately and i’m worried that my acct has been hacked…….will i get it back?
it appears that my acct is also going through this maintance. I have been logging into my friends account since she has moved and they have not hooked her up . So I have been zoo sitting, I am kinda worried that they think that I have double accts since its from the same isp that I have been logging into since last Weekend.I am not thrilled
mine just went out, is this a virus? or will my account come back – looks like folks went through this thing awhile back
Hi I have been receiving this message a lot the past few days. Around 2 hours daily I’m not able to access my profile. Non of my friends, however, had this problem !!
my account …same message! :( anybody know how to get on?
Same. This is lame. I’m expecting an important message, too, so it’s double the inconvenience…
My account was unavailable last night, worked ok this morning, and is out again tonight (8/17/10). Frustrating.
yeah its funny im down right now but my wifes acct is fine we in same room with wireless notebooks same ip address thats just f@@kin messed up they need to get there shit together
I try to reset my password, copy and paste the confirmation code.. and guess what… its incorrect!! ughh10 hours already!!
I was unavailable as of 10:15 toninght – WTH
My shit has been dowm all day im going back on myspace screw facebook
@Anonymous
You too huh?
Fuck u facebook
i believe that all these little problems that keep occuring are just facebook carrying out their own surveys without users knowing ! for example this problem doesn't allow the user to access their account for a certian period of time alowing facebook to get a good insight on how users react if they are unable to acess there account WHY ? you may ask. Well simple because eventually facebook would like to make there user pay , buy there facebook account seeing how botherd you are gives them a good idea of how many users are going to be sticking around ie. is it worth making you pay or will they lose to many users , and one more thing i wouldent worry about this problem your account will become accessible just be patient and don't get in touch with facebook.
i feel your pain barbara can you email and let me know when yours is working again lisawhitener18@yahoo.com thanks
dont feel bad i was on there and facebook logged me off while i was in the middle of playing frontierville very upset about this it shouldnt take too long im hoping lol i cant live without facebook
Can you please send me the email ID at kushagra002@gmail.com
Same issue was logged in then I got a message saying you must be logged in to do that. so I attempted to log back in and now it says site maitenance. this is the first time for me that this has happened. so should I just wait and be patient and it will just come back? or what?
I've been off Facebook all day because of this, but my colleague opposite me can access it fine! I don't understand! Now scared there's some sort of hacker. Why hasn't there been a statement issued to our emails at least?
RIght now – am so sick and tired of the maintenance issues and not being able to get to FB – what is the use of having something that goes down in the middle of the day on a weekend??????it – is there another option????? GRRRRRRR – you would thing the isseus would be scheduled so that users could know and avoid that time, but no….
I am getting PIST!!!!
Me, too, Monica! For a couple of hours now.
im having problems right now…i was talking to my friend, Arturo on the chat and it said "you are not logged in" and i logged out and i tried logging back in and it had the maintenance message so i cant log in
its messed up…i started posting a little trash talk about b.p. and halliburton, and the bush administration….then all the sudden it was like i got kicked off…tried to log back in but out of service for sit main. is this a qawinky dink??
hey divine, try creating a new account and add one of your current friends. Then go to their page and click on your old profile in their friends list and see if that allows you access to see your page, or at least go to some of your friends pages and get the scoop on who is posting what ….worked for me.
this happened to me, but before this, it just said there's no account with my email and password, so i tried to make a new one, but then it said my old one was under site maintenance, so i didn't know what to do. i did all the stuff it said, i cleared all the cookies etc. and it's still not working. it started on 13/05/10 at 7.30pm and now it's 15/05/10 12.55pm and it's still not working. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO FRIGGIN PEEVED!
Me too. I have the same problem. I'm going mad right now! I shouldnt open this particular website. I'm stupid..
Mine as been unavailable since yesterday…. *sigh* over 24 hours now.. this is the 3rd time for my page…… within a months time….
Damn, mine was the same with that crap maintenance. still waiting? Today, 9th May, 2010. Anyone else with the same problem?
Crap..Mine is unavailable right now with the same stupid message!
My crops will all rot!! CRAP!!
"OMG!
I can't live without Facebook for even 1 minute!!!!
WTF!!
I'm gonna die without it!!!!!"………
You folks are so ignorant to the world around you…………………….Read a BOOK!!
it is so frustrating
it happened to me today and by looking at all the post on here i am frustrated!!!
I have been having this problem all weekend. Has anyone with a problem been able to get back on? If so, how long did it take? Thanks
can't log in either…damn it~!
How long is Facebooks' maintanance going to last?I cant log in now!!T_T! 1:55 pm 26th March 2010
This is so frustrating.i have been away from facebook for a few days because i was studying just to find that i cannot even log in,my friends probably think i have blocked them and who knows..maybe the have already removed me by now because i have and am still away aaaargh
Mine is off – I logged in other my mom's and clicked on me and it said this person's profile is not available – Some of my friends are having the exact problem and when i click on their pages it says the same thing. Facebook was working slow for myself and most friends last night as well.
EVERYONE TRY THIS!
If you get this message while you’re using Google Chrome wait around 5 minutes or so after you get it, then try to log in to Facebook via Mozilla Firefox & see what happens. If that doesn’t work try Facebook Lite, or just wait whenever they finish it
just got this message right about 5 minutes ago lol.
I was on my account but then I clicked on one of my friend’s accounts & the page refreshed and I got this message. LOL I thought I was banned or something but I researched this & it said on Facebook that I will be able to get back on my account after the maintenance finishes.
Just “a few hours” annoys me because I basically sit on Facebook 24/7 Lol
just tried to sign on again.. this time i got an error from IE – HTTP 500 Internet server error.
I am having the same problem too (2.30am 3-23-10)… how rude :) I wonder if they are screening accounts or something.. Its definately not a maint. thing if others can get on when i cant. Hope someone can find a fix!
Having the same problem right now 11:15 pm (PDT)
Every other day my page in down for site maintenance…eventually comes back. This is very frustrating and I wonder how much of it is due to the new format?
My facebook account is up an running again. My account was down for a total of 24hrs. I reported it to their email team on this email address so i think they did action on it. Try to report yours I hope this helps.
I have the same problem!
I have the same problem, it started yesterday around 17:30 pm. I have been reading a lot of threads reg this issue and one thing I have noticed is that most of the comments/replies came from wives. I don’t know if it has something to do with the status or anything. Anyway nevermind. I just hope that this will be fixed and that we still have our facebook accounts.
Same message since 10 pm, Feb 22, 2010. Still down now 4pm………… *sighs*
I have been down since 10 pm Feb 22nd 2010 WTF is going on, A few hours bull…
I logged into facebook this morning just fine! Now – 00:34 a.m. (Greece time) -14 hours later I'm getting the same message as all of you. Facebook lite isn't working either. For certain people it is their work tool, for others a way to keep in touch…whatever the case…I wish there was someone who could explain to us what EXACTLY is going on.
It's the 4th time in the past week that I've gotten this message, this is ridiculous. The last 3 times I could log back in after a few hours.
just got in. down for about 12 hrs. but, all seems to be ok now. good luck.
I've been down since around noon today. everyone else in my family can get on – except me. very aggravating…..
I’ve been unable to login since this morning! It’s very frustrating. Facebook should hurry and fix the problem.
Today I received a message that my profile was unavailable because of site maintenance. I was logged in at the time! It's been almost 4 hours and I haven't been able to get back in. I'm upset to see that this may last 24 hours or more. Why don't they just say that it will be down that long instead of saying a few hours.
I have pages to update for my company. This isn't good.
I have been getting that same message for the last two hours.
I was locked out of my account for 24 hours. While searching for an answer I found a link for facebook lite. This site let me log in, and I clicked on the facebook logo at the top, which directed me to the normal facebook page. I have been able to log in and out with no problems now. Im sorry but I dont have a link , but I do hope this helps. It was driving me crazy!
I haven't been able to log in for 20 hours now . Message says they are performing maintenance…. This is crap!! all of my farms are ruined….. Yet all of my friends and family are able to log on…. what's going on people?
Ive been locked out over 24 hours, my fish are going to die! lol This is crap
same here i haven't been able to log in since yesterday.
Same, my Facebook has been down for over 24 hours now.
I've not been able to log in for almost 24 hours! I can't play my game which some of them I have paid for extras!! WTH up with this
anyone know how to fix it?
No, I'm using yahoo.
This just started to happen to me today! It's so weird, because I was at my college lab and I saw that everyone else was on Facebook besides me! D:
Same here–I cannot login for abou 12 hours now…
who do you have for e-mail? I have comcast and my children can access their accounts, as can my husband and mom, but I have my account registered under my comcast address. So I was wondering if there was a conflict with that – but I can't get in. Mine may have been down last night by 9 or so – but when I noticed was this morning at 4:45 am I tried to get on and it said site maintenance – try again in a few minutes. Around 7 am my message became a few hours. So 10 hours and counting so far! It stinks.
Same here, mine went down around the same time.. I hope it comes back up soon, cuz i am a fb junkie
Same, mine went down around 9pm eastern and is still.
Terri, my account is still down from around the same time last night. It's very frustrating to say the least! My husband and two sons can all log in, but I can't.
My account has been out since last night around 9 p.m. EST due to "Your account is temporarily unavailable due to site maintenance. It should be available again within a few hours. We apologize for the inconvenience." When I logged in this morning under a different user name, my main account (the one that is not available) shows up as being unavailable on Facebook. Did I do something wrong? Has my account been hacked? I have written Facebook's "hacked" team and to info@facebook.com. We'll see what transpires, but from what I've read, I'm nervous that it's going to a long wait and without any communication from Facebook. I guess when you're the only one in town, and free, you can do those sorts of things. We get what we pay for. :)
It just came back ! I tried my cell phone & cleaning and all the other things people posted. I even tried facebook lite…but nothing worked…..then it just came back. It as out for around 34 hours total.
Hi Rob – thanks for letting us know. Did you do anything special to get Facebook back, or did it just all of a sudden appear?
I got mine back , It was down from sat noon till sun 9:30…..
I started having probelms saturday as well, I ve sent several e mails to facebook but theres no technical support # and they re not responding back to even help with the trouble shooting !!!! thanks facebook for nothing
aaaah! same thing here!
Yes me too have not been able to access my account since Sat afternoon very frustrating!!!!!!!!
I have also been down over 24 hours. I could still log in via facebook mobile, and I could everyone's status updates, but my comments and posts seemed to go nowhere. The lack of info about this issue from facebook is criminal.
Been down for over 24 hours now, people think i'm blocking them from my page – but i can access the damn thing from my blackberry. Total rubbish.
I got it Sat Too…now I see my photo has reapeared in my list ( I have two FaceBook accounts ) and my posts have come back on the groups I run .But when I click on the name it says I'm Unavable & will be back soon !!……So i'm halfway back !!
This sucks….FB needs more computers so this doesn't happen again.
It's been over 24 hours now !!!
I've not been able to get on since sat am… i did all the above as well and that did not work… this is frustrating
I’ve been getting that same error message from Facebook since around 4pm this afternoon :( I tried deleting cookies, cache, history, etc and nothing seems to help so far.
