So I set my Ubuntu-Gnome 13.04 up to work with Facebook, using the red Icon for Online Accounts (Faience Icon Pack).
One time I set my PC to standby and as I woke it up, Empathy told me that my Facebook account could not be connected.
I checked in the control panel and since then, every time I open Online Accounts, the Control Panel just closes.

No advice, but I'm having the same issue.

Edited to add that I'm using Unity.

my online accounts is now broken -- facebook tries to authenticate but it pops an external browser which just displays gibberish. I've tried to de-auth the ubuntu account on the fb side and re-run, but it's not displaying correctly. I saw something somewhere where I fixed this on my 13.04 install - but this is still broken on 12.10. really frustrating b/c the online accounts won't even let me delete the fb account from the registered account list so the new browser procs just keep happening.

this was the solution (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2146595&page=2&p=12678696#post12678696) I found for 13.04 -- I tried but it didn't work for my on 12.10.
