I can get into my FB account but can't post anything also groups and contacts down each side of the page is blank. Any suggestions welcome.  Any idea how to log out so I can log in again to see if that helps?

On the blue bar just above the page - right at the right end of the bit with the 2 heads and the globe there is a black padlock and next to it a black downward pointing triangle. They are quite difficult to see. Click on the triangle and you get a drop down with 12 items, log-out is the 9th one down.

Blasted thing just keeps trying to load but never gets there

May be worth closing down, turn off and then trying again.

ps I got a tablet a few weeks ago and that has come close to going out the window a few times

Sorted Cleared cookis and logged in again and all fine. Shutting down was my next plan if cookies didn't sort it.

I often threaten my computer witha baseball bat!!!

Thanks for your help

Now, my problem has never been that I had problems getting in.  But more a case of, once I'm in, I haven't got a clue what to do with the damn site.

You are better not getting involved Jean!!

I stick to a few breed specific groups, and post and share doggy stuff/pics.
