Why: You do not have the Necessary Permission for the Specified Page to Perform the Requested Action

You do not have the Necessary Permission for the Specified Page to Perform the Requested Action

Did you just receive an error message when browsing to a Facebook web page (perhaps a Facebook Fan Page), and you did nothing to invoke it? The error message is below.

 

Insufficient Permission

You do not have the necessary permission for the specified Page to perform the requested action.

 





Some have suggested online to clear your browser cache and cookies – but this does not fix error from re-appearing. From others reporting the error online, it is most likely because of Facebook releasing new beta features on pages you can’t see and otherwise would not have access too.

Me too. Just started today after one of Windows 10's many unwanted updates. Did you find a workaround?

Facebook is getting to big a major pain in the ass. first by getting stupid errors that they won't respond to, or tell you how to fix. Plus, way too many frigging ads you have to go to and delete as irrelevent..so is FB

You won't get an answer. I've gone through 10 or 11 pages as to this problem. Nobody has an answer. Nothing but people talking about the problem. Even Facebook is worthless as tits on a boar hog. You tell them about the problem in a way where other people can read your questions, but there is never an answer from Facebook. Just bs crap.

I am getting this error message! Very frustrating and I am not able to get a reason for this from FB. Assistance in clearing this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Yes. I too received the same message. Very frustrating. In the search for answers, I have Facebook telling me I reported a number of ads -- you know, the ones you don't ask for but you fit some vague and irrelevant profile. Asked FB about it but it was like talking to a stone wall.

I'm getting it too. I'm just going to close the FB tab and stay away for a few days. FB depends on our presence to make their money, they'll fix it.
