Welcome to the Candy Crush Saga Community
Do you have a question or need help with your game? Ask the Community.
Have you reinstalled the game on your Tablet, it may be a good idea if this carries on just to make sure it's not due to a corrupt file or something. When you play on PC, do you not get the first message pop up where you can send lives back to your friends when you launch the game? You could always try removing the game from your Facebook and adding it again, it could also help reset the connection with any luck.
