Why is facebook not updating my profile?

[Katherine]

No idea how to fix this, but it seems to be a common problem that has popped up over the last two weeks. Maybe if we can figure out what we all have in common (because it's happening to some of us but not to others) then we can work out what's wrong. So far it's not a cache issue, because cleaning out caches does not fix it. I don't think it's a hacking issue either because changing my password didn't help, and I do not use applications.

Perhaps it is a bug with the new profile, or maybe Facebook changed some code somewhere and broke it. Either way, their support system really sucks - "Gee, something has gone wrong, let me see if any other users have solutions, but oh well, guess I can't actually report the bug to the people in charge, can I?" *sigh*

Using different browsers (Chrome, IE and Firefox) has made no difference whatsoever, and neither has the use of different computers, on different networks, or cellphones, or any other kind of hardware. I think this is a case of "Facebook, dear, it's not me. It's you."
