      How to Fix Facebook Pictures or Photos not Loading, Showing or Opening<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      1. Check Internet Connectivity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      One of the quickest ways to deal with issues such as Facebook pictures not loading is to check and ensure that you have enough internet connection to access the app. Lack of a strong internet connection gives you very little or no chance to access the app, hence giving you problems like Facebook pictures not showing when clicked on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To rectify this, first, check if you have an active internet connection or data plan. Also, you should not hesitate to check the strength of your internet connection and this can easily be done by using www.fast.com<\/a> to check how fast or slow your internet connection is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Upon checking the strength of your internet connection and you realize you have a speed of your network ranging below 5Mbps, then you should find your internet connection very problematic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You, therefore, have to either connect to a stronger network or upload your network server with enough data allocation. After doing this try to check if your Facebook pictures are still not loading on your phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"

      You can also check the Internet connection by turning on and off the Airplane mode. Turning on and off the Airplane has been one of the best options to check internet connection problems. With this, the network will go off automatically and it will come back probably stronger than before. Try this by following the steps given below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Launch the Settings app on your phone. Scroll through and find Connections.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        2. After selecting Connections<\/strong>, tap on Flight mode<\/strong> and turn it off if it was mistakenly turned on. If it is off already, turn it on, wait for about a minute and turn it on again, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        2. Check the Facebook Server Status<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Periodically, the fault of these Facebook pictures not showing up on android or Facebook pictures not showing up on PC may not be your fault. This is because there are sometimes general glitches that happen in the systems of Instagram, causing all users to get stuck accessing the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        This may happen when you are trying to log in to the app, upload a feed, upload Facebook stories, or load Facebook pictures. It happens once in a while but if you are unfortunate and it happens, you may not be too sure if it\u2019s actually just you or a general problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        For that matter, you should endeavor to check using Down Detector<\/a> to check if the system is actually down or not. Search for \u201cFacebook\u201d on the software and check if they serve you with Facebook outage reports in your region. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Besides this, you can also check Twitter to find out if there has been an official communique from Facebook about their app malfunctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        3. Relaunch the Facebook App<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        One of the quickest and simplest ways to deal with such issues concerning the \u201cTap to retry<\/strong>” error when you find Facebook pictures not loading is by quitting the app abruptly and relaunching it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        For this, you must leave the Facebook app and clear all running apps in the background. If you are using the browser to access <\/strong>Facebook, then you should clear the Facebook web tab and open it on a new tab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        After quitting the app, relaunch the app and check if you still encounter the issue of <\/strong>Facebook pictures not loading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        4. Turn Off Facebook Free Mode to Fix the Images not Loading Issue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Facebook has a Free mode feature that allows Facebook users to access the app without the use of data. Users just have to get a little data connection to connect to Facebook to do the usual viewing of posts without data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        This feature does not permit you to view images and videos since it does not require any data charges<\/strong>. You might have turned on the Free mode option which is causing your Facebook pictures not to load or show. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        To get rid of the Free mode and use the normal Facebook that requires data charges, follow the steps given below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Launch the Facebook app or Facebook on a web browser<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Tap on the three horizontal lines at the top right<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Go to the menu and look for Facebook Free mode<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Tap on the toggle next to it to turn the feature off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        5. Go back to load pictures on Facebook to check if you can see them now.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
          \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

          5. Allow Facebook to Use Unrestricted Data <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          When you try loading a photo on Facebook and you are not able to view the picture even after turning off the Facebook Free mode feature, then you should check if you have restricted Facebook from using enough data by turning on the Data saver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          You must give Facebook unrestricted data usage by using the steps below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          1. Pres and hold the Facebook app<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Tap on app info on the sub-window that appears<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            4. Turn on the Unrestricted data Usage toggle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            6. Check for Disabled Images<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Due to the speed of performance, most users of web browsers disable the images and other content options of the web browsers. It boosts the speed of content loading and for that matter, avoids slow loading of content with images included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            This may have affected your Facebook images, preventing them from loading. You may have activated the option without knowing properly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Check your browser’s in-built options to disable the “Disabled images” feature. Due to the difference in the processes to turn off this feature for all web browsers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            7. Disable the Ad-Blocker<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Facebook is usually full of ads and these ads prevent users from seeing images almost all the time. There Ad may come before a particular image or cover the image. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            This may stop you from viewing what is actually there. Ad-blockers are very troublesome, especially when using web browsers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Therefore disabling the Ad-blocker feature will definitely be the best option to get rid of the Ad-blockers. The Ad-blocker may be an extension of the browser so you, therefore, have to turn off the extension. You also have to disable Ad-blocker on your PC if it is a third-party tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            8. Clear the Facebook App Cache and Data<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
