Why did my Instagram profile picture disappear?
It may be possible that if you just updated it, the app will need to take some time to refresh it on all the instances your profile picture would appear. I’d try refreshing the app first. On Android, go to settings > apps > Instagram > force stop. Then relaunch the app as you would normally.
How can you tell if someone has deactivated their Facebook account?
After someone deactivates his/her account, Facebook completely hides its profile and all its content. You cannot see his/her profile, photos, posts etc. It appears as though the account has been deleted from the site. However, you can see the past messages between you and that person.
