this works... hope it helps..

NSMutableDictionary* parameters = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
    [parameters setValue:@"id, name, email" forKey:@"fields"];

    [[[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc] initWithGraphPath:@"me" parameters:parameters]
     startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error)

Facebook Graph API broke it’s backward compatibility (when used in a default fashion) Since Graph-API version 2.4 (Pod Version 4.4.0).

FB Graph-API 2.4 does NOT return all default fields for user

To resolve this you can either use explicitly graph version 2.3:

[[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc] initWithGraphPath:@"me" parameters:nil tokenString:[FBSDKAccessToken currentAccessToken].tokenString version:@"v2.3" HTTPMethod:nil]

in which case FB assures v2.3 will be available at least 2 years from now. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/overview:

The Graph API has multiple versions available to access at any one time. Each version contains a set ofcore fields and edge operations. We make a guarantee that those core APIs will be available and un-modified in that version for at least 2 years from release. The platform changelog can tell you which versions are currently available.

OR

you can use new Graph-API (v2.4) in by asking for specific fields you are interested in:

[[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc] initWithGraphPath:@"me" parameters:@{@"fields" : @"email,name"}]
