Right now I have a blue cunning collector ribbon I can’t share. If I can’t click the share buttun I will lose 1,000 xp and 10,000 coins. I try clicking share and nothing happens. I will leave this screen up for three days if I have to. I refuse to lose all that xp!!!

=( had no problem until now…. can’t get to my farm =(
Posted on March 2nd, 2010 at 9:58 pm
When FV restricts the sharing I start having problems collecting from my neighbors too. Now when I click on their collectibles,eggs,bonuses, Half the time I go straight to my farm.
Accepting gifts is messed up again too. I tried to accept some after tonight’s update and they took me straight to my farm too.

i am having problems gifting and adding neighbors to farmville? what do i need to do?
Posted on March 10th, 2010 at 1:07 pm
My farm ville is not adding neighbors that except me at the bottom of my page on the bar.Also it is telling me I cannot claim my own gifts when I am claiming someone elses,not mine.
Posted on March 13th, 2010 at 7:18 pm
Same as kimberly morris. Not adding new neighbors. Telling me that I cant claim my own gifts, when I am claiming 1 from someone else. Saying that a neighbor’s gifts have been claimed by someone else when they haven’t been. (i claimed within 5 seconds & they never appeared in anyone elses box.)
Posted on March 13th, 2010 at 10:19 pm
At least I’m not the only one being informed that I’m trying to claim my own reward when I’m actually claiming one from a recently added neighbor… Also, recently added neighbors don’t show up in the game window bar (though they do appear, without their names, on the neighbor page).
Posted on March 15th, 2010 at 4:05 pm
hi there, does anyone know how to fix the out of sync problem…i’ve been having this problem for almost a month…..logged in my farm for a few minutes then it goes out of sync…whatever i do in my farm it won’t save and everything goes back to the way it was…help..!!! thanx
Posted on March 18th, 2010 at 8:20 pm
Same problems here with gifts and new neighbors. Gifts are adding up because I don’t want to lose them. Any ideas when it will be fixed? Zanga said today the issue is being looked into. Takes the fun out of the game. Please fix soon???
Posted on March 19th, 2010 at 1:10 am
i cannot accept my neighbors gifts it says i have 50 exsisting gifts i need to use i know nothing about the gifts and cannot seem to get this problem cleared i wish this would be corrected i like the game but this makes me want to pull my hair out nothing is worth that stress if this keeps up i will drop this game please help
Posted on March 28th, 2010 at 4:23 am
I am just as exasperated as all of the above. The last 6 neighbors can only receive from me and I can’t receive from them. The same error: can’t receive from myself or they must be a neighbor. They send me gifts and between Facebook and Farmville they vanish. I am really anxious to get this fixed. I really like the game but not in the current state.
Posted on April 3rd, 2010 at 2:08 am
I know this is just a game, but, they are selling FV cash and virtual merchandise for cold hard cash. If this was a retail store or Ebay you bet they would lose millions of customers until the glitches were fixed…and fixed fast. I won’t be spending any money on Farmville until I am sure it won’t be lost in a black hole like my new neighbors and many of my gifts.
Posted on April 19th, 2010 at 6:40 am
I am having the same problem as so many other members and that is to add neighbours to FarmVille. I presently have 14 neighbour who have accepted me but do not show as being neighbours. This is really frustrating!!! When is this problems going to be rectified?
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 11:44 am
I have used Google Chrome for years and have played FV with it since I started playing the game over a year ago. Now, I am unable to open my gift box, or click on anything at all! I’m real money player in this game but I am back out of it until it can be fixed. My crops can wither, I don’t care. Oh, by the way, I have a BRAND new computer system and it hauls with graphic intensive games like Second Life (I updated video card and power supply) so it’s not me. It’s YOU. Sorry. Get these issues fixed or the real gamers move to real games.
Posted on June 18th, 2010 at 12:59 am
I am so upset. I timed it right since my friend’s game got messed up — and I told her exactly when I would claim the butterfly decoration on the Tuscan wedding tent. Once I shared it on my page — it seems like all of either FB or FV just stopped working as far as claiming prizing from others. I can’t even collect on fuel on my page. Can this be fixed b/c this really stinks!
Posted on June 21st, 2010 at 4:48 am
Well, people, I know these glitches are maddening, but consider this: FarmVille is a BETA game… so, it’s bound to have problems.
@ Zynga: Plz improve these glitches, or otherwise you’re gonna lose me next!
Posted on September 17th, 2010 at 12:00 pm
cannot up grade my farm. i click on expand all that comes up is a blank page
Posted on September 20th, 2010 at 12:07 am
I have been having problems with Farmville gifting for weeks. I have made reports and complaints several times. This has been going on for many weeks, but to no avial. I can’t gift but 1 or 2 people. In the morning is a lot better for the first few times. Then it gets started. This is very frustrating. You can not help your neighbors and hardly keep up who you gifted last because before you know it the neighbors are active again by the time you get around to a certain point. This is so aggravating!!!! Can someone please fix this. This has been going on for several weeks. I am about to just throw in the towel!!!! and say forget it!!!!!!!
Posted on September 22nd, 2010 at 7:23 am

Posted on October 2nd, 2010 at 11:03 am

Posted on January 20th, 2011 at 12:06 am
I got the castle, got the rose stand, and got my red sheep. It never gave me a second level of things i had to accomplish…tulips, chocolate, etc. I deleted my castle, which was completed, and bought another one to see if that woulod clear up the problem. It didnt. Anyone have any suggestions please??
Posted on January 22nd, 2011 at 7:35 pm
New neighbors who have accepted my requests are not showing up on my farm. I have checked and in some cases people have accepted my neighbor invitation twice and still nothing. I don’t understand!!! PLEASE help to fix this as I’m not the only one who is have this trouble.
Posted on February 9th, 2011 at 5:56 pm

I can’t buy my friend products
Posted on March 29th, 2011 at 7:25 pm
This is the URL that comes up when I try to gift to my friends who have played. (icon on left side of Farmville screen) It just sits there and nothing happens. This has been going on for months. I clear my cache as recommended…..nothing changes. I am having many gifting problems. Very frustrating – thinking of quitting Farmville even thought I have a new Countryside Farm. No fun playing when game does not work correctly. Accessing “Support” through Farmville or Zynga is next to impossible. Unable to send an email.

I accept my gifts requests on Farmville and even try to ignore them but they remain. When I click on them to accept them a second time since they are still there, it says it has been accepted. Currently the gift requests are piling up – last look I had 31.
Please fix!
Posted on June 17th, 2011 at 11:30 am

This is everytime, Even sat there and waited for them to come up next and nothing.Can you fix the problem? Thank you.

For about one week I am unable to make requests from friends and unable to Post any sharing of items. It is very frustrating and while I understand problems occur this will result in me not being to complete some timed tasks as I can not ask for items. Will I be able to receive a refund for farm cash I purchased when I reach the point that I am not longer willing to wait for the needed repairs????.
Posted on October 11th, 2011 at 3:37 pm
I cannot seem to buy any goods from my neighbors when and if I do it puts my bakery/restaurant in freeze mode and sometimes I cannot get into it to do anything. lighthouse cove restaurant has been froze for two days. Can someone help.
