    Question Old iPad 4th Gen, cannot log into FB from browser

    Hi all, I bought a pretty old iPad 4th Gen (16 GB) on Facebook Marketplace the other day with the intention of teaching my elderly aunt how to use it (she's never even been on the internet). Myself, I know pretty much nothing about iPad's and have never used one but I am fairly tech savvy...
