Farmville Neighbors Not Showing Up - How to Find Your Missing Neighbors

Lately more and more Farmville players have bumped into the bug where you can't see your neighbors. It occurs both on old neighbors and just added ones. The game's developer Zynga has also acknowledged this problem, but for some reason it has been going on for some time now and they have yet to fix it. In most cases it's rather simple to fix, but some people have had to work some more for it.

The simple fix is to send a gift to one of your neighbor. For most people, this fixes it. Now, of course you can't do it via the friends link at the bottom of the screen, instead you should use the 'Free Gifts' link in the top.

However, if that doesn't fix it for you, you must upgrade your Adobe Flash Player. You want to do this thoroughly so start by uninstalling your old Flash Player. Go here and download the Uninstaller compatible with your operating system. Save it, quit all applications and then run it.

Next, go here and get the current Flash Player. It should recognize your OS but if it displays a wrong one, just click where it reads 'Different operating system or browser?' and select yours. Now just download and install.

This should make your neighbors show up again for most, but if it still doesn't work here's something you might want to try. First, clear your browser's cache and cookies. Try playing Farmville via the official site instead of through Facebook. You can also try a different browser. Unfortunately, if it still doesn't work after all of this, there's really nothing more you can do about it and it's up to Zynga to fix it.
