Farmville Not Working Tonight!

Posted on October 21, 2009 10:17 pm by FarmVille Freak FarmGoddess

Is everyone else having trouble accessing Farmville tonight?

Many people, including myself, are reporting that Farmville as well as Mafia Wars and Cafe World are not working tonight. So it must be a Zynga issue.

Blank White Screen = No Farming

and

No farming = Withered Crops  :(

Official Word from Farmville:

“FarmVille is experiencing technical difficulties, y’all. We’ll be back up and runnin’ just as soon as we can.”

  1. Mark the Farmer Says:

    I was very excited to start harvesting my blueberries but now they’re probably withered. Arghh….

  2. shadow Says:

    yes i also have a blank white screen,man….

  3. Jason Says:

    Ditto.

    Tried it in about half a dozen different browsers with the same result. Hope it’s not a prolonged downtime, I got’s crops to harvest.

    Wow, we are sad :)

  4. Mark the Farmer Says:

    Oh, and I forgot to mention I’ve already lost 3 Date Trees as gifts. I almost lost a Banana Tree but I forced myself to stop trying to open Farmville!

  5. Xazaw Says:

    My Farmville is not working tonight,, why???

  6. Brittany Says:

    Blank white screen for me too. I can’t even get the Zynga forums to load at all.

  7. Darshana Says:

    I have a blank screen too…

  8. Mark the Farmer Says:

    I know why Farmville isn’t working tonight… due to the high volume of complaints from players on the high cost of “GAMBLING” boxes, the developers have decided to turn off Farmville for a little bit, just so that we players will “miss” the game, thus forgetting the bad times we had with the “GAMBLING” boxes…I took psychology

  9. Xazaw Says:

    when we can play our farm again??????

  10. jason Says:

    i just bought 40000 worth the raspberries for a quick flip…if i loose all my coins i’m gonna quit.

  11. Gwyn Says:

    lol @Mark.

    I am glad it is not just me! my strawberries and grape are going to be dead…….. i have to get to bed!

  12. Melody Says:

    ARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH my crops my crops HMMMMM can we get subsidization for our lost crops? My crops sure arent going to harvest themselves.

  13. Aj Says:

    Yeah its just a white screen, hope its back soon cause i planted a heap of raspberries! but they probably withered now =(

  14. Nile Green Says:

    HALP HALP HALP!
    WHAT DO I DO?!
    I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO !!
    HALP!! I NEED TO FARM I CANT STAND THE WAIT!!!!
    I DOESNT AFRAID OF ANY BUT THE WHITE SCREEN OF DEATH!!

  15. Lauren Says:

    Been having issues for going on 3-4 hours now. Thought it was just me.

  16. Mark the Farmer Says:

    Farmville is “half” up now… I can get to the screen with the tabs that say “Free Gifts, Play, Neighbors, Help, etc” but it says “Server not found” where the game should be loaded. I’ve been waiting forever.

  17. leo Says:

    Ecuador too have been affected about this issue, come on ZYNGA solve this problem right now my sunflowers will be dying and my pizzas from cafe world will be toasted up

  18. Melody Says:

    whimper whimper whimper 12 step program here I come.

    1. I admit I have an issue and must watch clock so I know when to harvest each crop.
    2. I realize that not all my friends are as addicted to farmville as I am
    3. I must be willing to give gifts tho I may not receive some back.
    4. I fully admit giving my login to a good friend while I was in the hospital so my farm could be worked.
    5. I promise to adopt all farm animals even if it is a very ugly duckling. Just remember the swan.
    6. I freely admit to buying and selling items just to collect ribbons.
    7. I acknowledge the fact that I am check daily to see if the next to farm sizes have become available.
    8. I admit to being upset because my friends are not at as high a level as I am and can’t send my some of the gifts I can send them.
    9. I freely admit to helping a friend with her farm so she can get to those higher levels.
    10. I find myself checking to make sure no one has got to a higher level than me and work harder if they get close.
    11. I find my self checking on how many times I can really gift in one day.
    12. I must quit making my waking moment the checking of my farm.

  19. Melody Says:

    Mark that was just a torment and a tease. Here you can at least see PART of Farmville. Adrenaline rushing thru system ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  20. Aspromalee Says:

    Sorry, “fbpr1.farmville.zynga.com” does not exist or could not be found

  21. Mark the Farmer Says:

    @ Melody:

    13. I admit to spending 8 out of 9 hours at work, just to read about Farmville on this web site and harvesting crops.

    UPDATE: It now says ”
    Loading Game…
    If your game does not load within 10 seconds, you may need to upgrade your version of Flash. Please do so by clicking here

  22. Melody Says:

    @ Mark

    My computer at home is dead and I got off work at 9:45 but gee I am on a computer typing. Yup sitting at my work desk in my office hoping that it will come back up in the next 15 minutes before I must give in and go home to sleep.

  23. Mark the Farmer Says:

    TO: FARMVILLE LORDS
    FROM: FARMER MARK
    Dear Farmville Lords, I promise to follow you and purchase a Mystery Box for 15 fv, as long as you give me back Farmville.
    Yours Truly, Mark the Farmer
    P.S. I have learned my lesson

  24. Melody Says:

    14. I admit to getting sucked in on gimmicks to make me spend my rarely given hard earned Farmville dollars.

  25. Mark the Farmer Says:

    UPDATE: FARMVILLE IS NOW WORKING, BUT ONLY ON A PC. IT DOES NOT WORK ON MY MAC.

    WT THE HECK??

  26. farmgoddess Says:

    LOL @ Mark the Farmer. Those Zynga gods are trying to teach us a lesson and all we can do is bow down.

  27. farmgoddess Says:

    @ Melody your 12 Step Program is great. We have to start somewhere!

  28. smilely_lm Says:

    Is it down again??

  29. Ryan Says:

    Not on mine

  30. karen Says:

    my farm isnt loading properly. can anybody help?

  31. Emily Says:

    IE works, but Firefox does not.

  32. linda Says:

    farm not saving changes, e.g., harvest, plow, seed and come back and half withered. Any solutions? I ready to stop playing as I already waste too much time on this addicting game.

  33. linda Says:

    I get this msg on both Safari and Firefox browsers: Oh no! It looks like all the bits got lost on the way to your computer. Please refresh your page.

    Dumb ?, but is there any tech support?

  34. khalid Says:

    i was happy that i can harvest my fully grown cabbage but the window is not opening. if i lost my 60000 coins i will quit the game forever

  35. vespa Says:

    non funziona, questa sera proprio non va cosa bisogna fare?

  36. chris Says:

    yup theres another 100k down the drain… seems to be that every time i regain the money i lose it again, so what gonna happen this time? will i be reinburst?!

  37. surfvoucher Says:

    Mine is stuck at about 75% and it stays there! I’m having issues almost every night, it either doesn’t load or it won’t allow me to open the market, etc… Every day it’s something new!

  38. Cayo Says:

    There were more technical problems today than I’ve ever seen before….I’ll be 3/4ths through the harvesting/planting cycle and I’ll have to hit the ACCEPT request to have things restarted…..Pretty annoying
    Hey,I’ve been thinking about getting one of those automated harvesting, plowing, planting, etch programs……Is $6.99 the going rate? Is one program better than the others? Are any of them scams? Please advise….How do I start a category about this topic? I’m sure that I’m not the only one thinking about doing this! -Cayo Hern on Facebook….if you want to message me directly. Thanks!

  39. Ingrid Says:

    another unhappy farmer: since last night 11/21 until now
    11/22 2PM I made many attempts to log on to farmville and I get the lost bits story. Meanwhile the crops are rotting and the gifts disappear before I get a chance to open them.
    Come on zynga people, do you want to keep the players happy or not?

  40. Ryki Says:

    In my honest opinion with this downtime, Zynga sure better freeze time. Atleast enough to fix the problem and so our crops won’t wither. Or give everyone in the game 500k because of their stupidity. They should atleast give us something out of the deal. I can harvest quite alright, but the gift loosing has to stop. Eh. For every downtime of over an hour, they should give us 100k per hour. This has gone far enough -_-

  41. usman Says:

    my farm is not even opening

  42. Carmen Says:

    My Farm has not worked in over a week! I am not sure what is wrong. I am unable to view my Gifts or Stored Items, Plant Crops, Delete items and unable to open the Market. I am so excited about the Winter/Holiday Items and can’t even use them.

    I have tried Farmville on Facebook and Zynga and on Firefox and Internet Explorer.

    Someone please help!!!

  43. udbhav goel Says:

  53. Pauline Caruana Says:

    My farmville is not uploading and when it did the last time i saw that it has been put backwards a couple of hours. I had leveled up to 54 and now i am back to level 53 as i was a couple of hours ago. When collecting from post i am given the cow saying that bits have not reach farmville

  54. Paul Burgess Says:

    farmville not working for 3 days now keeps asking for flash player downloaded it from every where still no joy but other games load from the same site, What is missing ?. get it to run on desk top, not desperate but help is needed `Thanks to anyone out their`.

  55. suchithra Says:

    my farmville not work……i’m fed up trying from different computers…. :)

  56. Cheiros Says:

    My Farmville doesn’t load either. I had to reload and reload the page until I got a bit of luck and it loads and then I could hardly visit my friends’ farms and go back to mine properly. The worst thing is even my seeder and merket page don’t show up when I click them. I joined a co-op and it’s wasting so much of my time because I couldn’t harvest and I couldn’t seed! What’s wrong with Farmville? Zynga didn’t even issue any message like it usually does when it has a technical issue. Are they aware of the problem?? I think it started when they made the notice board.

  57. yuni Says:

    ANY ADVICE??? HOW TO MAKE THE FARM WORK AGAIN? ITS NOT WORKING ON MAC !!! MY PUPPY IS GONE!!!

  58. Saara Says:

    FV is not working its giving the error “Oh no! It looks like all the bits got lost on the way to your computer. Please refresh your page.”

    Oh! Previously, It was working slow but now it is out of limit that it is not working for a little bit.
    I was very exited about my crops but now all of them are withered because this problem.

  61. VACY Says:

    Why do they introduce such new things – marketstall, wedding theme – when they can keep their game stable!

  62. VACY Says:

    Actually, I’d say good riddance. I was starting to play that game 24/7 and was looking hard to lose my addiction. Now I’m free again. Or atleast for 2 more days, until they fi the problem and release exciting stuff!!!

    Is anyone else having problems with Farmville loading bits? I have been having problems for three days. I thought it was my PC. I have updated adobe, direct x, nvidia… nothing seems to work. My other Zinga games such as Frontierville are having issues also. If others are having problems with bits, I can stop the madness of updating. Thanks fellow Farmville fans!

  83. PEEVEDFARMVILLEPLAYER Says:

    So I’m pissed. Farmville finally started working again and all my crops are withered. They SAID that they would not let them wither while the site was down. GRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

    Farmville not working with internet explorer and flash 10.
    After much research and fooling around, I did this and it worked.

    Install Mozilla Firefox on you computer as a web browser. Then go into facebook/farmville using firefox. It will require you to install Flash again. Only this time it will download an executable file onto your computer (downloard folder or wherever you have downloads going.) Then go to the folder where it is, double click the file so you can install it. After it is installed, RESTART your computer and then go back into facebook/farmville and with any luck, it will work again.

    I have a vista system and it worked – good luck.

    Ok It’s Feb. 18, 2012. I don’t know if anyone will see this but I’ll give it a try. My problem is FarmVille not loading, FarmVille freezing up and FarmVille redirecting me to other tasks when I’m tring to harvest my crops. I tried for 7 hours on the 16th to harvest my crops and couldn’t do it. And of course when I was able to harvest them a lot of them were withered. Does anyone still monitor this site?

  105. Lisa Dominguez Says:

    Hi. I am having a hard time loading my farm on farmville app. Please let me know if there is any technical issues with farmville lately. Thanks.
