Twitter has stopped working. I use a Mac and the latest Firefox. It worked yesterday but not today. The page is blank except for the Twiter toolbar on the top. Twitter does work with Safari and Opera

Why is my screen blank? Is Twitter Down?

Nope, it's a just a bug, but you can still use Twitter!

Some users have reported that clicking to preview #NewTwitter yields a blank screen with only the top navigational bar (see the image below for an example).

Try these steps first: 

  1. clear your cache and cookies
  2. make sure javascript is enabled 
  3. make sure you are not running any add-ons, scripts or plugins
  4. Refresh the page  
  5. Try using https://www.twitter.com instead of http://www.twitter.com
