Bug Description

When I attempt to authorize Ubuntu to access my Facebook account through Online Accounts, Firefox launches (or opens a new tab) with the URL"https://www.facebook.com/connect/blank.html#_=_"

The page says "Success
SECURITY WARNING: Please treat the URL above as you would your password and do not share it with anyone."

The account authorization does not progress. It still says "Please authorize Ubuntu to access your Facebook account." All I can do is cancel.

I have the same bug. Also my Google account no longer works. This breaks Empathy and makes it worthless. Started happening for me out of nowhere on 12.10 a few days ago. Continues after an upgrade to 13.04.
